Greenhouse gas emissions falling in most source sectors - Eurostat | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

Climate change can be an overwhelming theme with many indicators involved. To better understand it, Eurostat published today a Statistics Explained article on climate change and its driving forces providing a long-term analysis and in-depth background. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are the result of human activities which cause anthropogenic climate change, and the EU is an ambitious contributor to the global efforts to fight climate change and reduce GHG emissions, being committed to being climate neutral by 2050. Data produced by the European Environment Agency (EEA) and re-publishded by Eurostat show that GHG emissions have been declining in most sectors, except in fuel combustion in transport, including international aviation.
