Limiting global warming to 2 °C above pre-industrial levels is the objective agreed on in international climate negotiations. Due to upward revisions of greenhouse gas emission projections in emerging economies, such as India, Brazil, Mexico and China, achieving this...
Total Dutch greenhouse gas emissions, in 2009, decreased by approximately three per cent, compared with emission levels of 2008. This decrease is a result of the economic crisis, especially due to a decline in industrial production. In 2009, total direct greenhouse gas...
This report describes the methodologies, emission factors and relevant activity data used to calculate the emission of environmental pollutants from mobile sources in the Netherlands. The emissions are calculated, annually, by the Task Force on Transportation of the Dutch...
Scaling up and accelerating action on climate change without delay will reduce the risk that keeping global average temperature rise below 2 °C becomes an unrealistic prospect. The Emissions Gap Report was coordinated by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and the European...
This report documents the Netherlands' submission of its annual greenhouse gas emission inventory for 2018, in accordance with the guidelines provided by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the European Union's Greenhouse Gas Monitoring...
Total greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands decreased in 2014 by approximately 4.1%, compared with those in 2013. This was mainly the result of a decrease in fuel consumption due to the mild winter of 2014. In 2014, total greenhouse gas emissions (including emissions...
The current European diet is characterised by a high intake of meat, dairy products and eggs, leading to an intake of saturated fat and red meat that exceeds health recommendations. Livestock production in the EU is the driver of around 80% of the nitrogen losses from...
This report documents the Netherlands' submission of its annual greenhouse gas emission inventory for 2017, in accordance with the guidelines provided by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the European Union's Greenhouse Gas Monitoring...
Total greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands decreased in 2013 by approximately 0.2%, compared with those in 2012. This was mainly the result of a decrease in fossil-fuel combustion in the transport sector and petrochemical industry. In 2013, total direct greenhouse gas...
This report documents the submission of the Dutch annual greenhouse gas emission inventory for 2019, in accordance with the guidelines provided by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the European Union's Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism....
