According to the statistical release, the increase in transport emissions follows a period of reduced transport during the Covid-19 pandemic. Domestic transport is the largest emitting sector in the UK, responsible for 28% of all greenhouse gas emissions. According to the release, road vehicles ...

This sector consists of emissions from waste disposed of to landfill sites, waste incineration, and wastewater treatment. It’s estimated to have been responsible for around 4% of GHG emissions in the UK in 2019, with methane being by far the most prominent gas (90% of emissions). The vast...
A Global Breakdown of Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Sector In a few decades, greenhouse gases (GHGs)—chiefly in the form of CO₂ emissions—have risen at unprecedented rates as a result of global growth and resource consumption. To uncover the major sectors where these emissions originate, this...

Some recent studies have highlighted the importance of greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions from energy use in the water sector. They show that water-related energy use in the US accounts for nearly 5% of total GHG emissions, and the proportion is even higher in the UK, although there it is ...

Therefore, according to UNFCC rules, GHG emissions are assigned to a specific country and a specific sector if they are directly created by a production or consumption process in the respective country and the respective sector. In contrast, fluxes of inputs and intermediate products, which have...
3.2. Historical GHG Emissions from the IPPU Sector Greenhouse gas emission in terms of CO2-eq. is calculated for different sectors based on the methodology described in Section 2.2, and the result is presented in Figure 3. As can be seen, the total GHG emissions from major IPPU sectors have...
[2,19,20,21,22,23,24,25]. The main sources of anthropogenic gas emissions are the energy sector (inter alia gases that are emitted to the atmosphere due to burning solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels and gas leaks), transport and industry (emissions that result from industrial activities, e...
