Sentences with phrase «national emission totals»

In accordance with the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines, which are used by Parties to prepare their greenhouse gas inventories, emissions from fuel sold to ships or aircraft engaged in international transport (known as «bunker fuels») should not be included in national emission totals, but reported separately.

Note: For the purposes of greenhouse gas emissions inventories, data on emissions from combustion of international bunker fuels are subtracted from national emissions totals.

Not exact matches

While cadmium is a naturally occurring element, industrial emissions in Sarnia totaled 611 tons between 2000 and 2010, according to Canada's National Pollutant Release Inventory.

To investigate the impacts, Yale's Dr. Jodi Sherman, and first author Matthew Eckelman of Northeastern University first used an economic model based on federal data to calculate total emissions of different pollutants produced by the healthcare sector over a 10 - year period, drawing on national health expenditure data.

Aviation accounts for about 10 percent of greenhouse gas emissions from transportation in the U.S., or about 2.7 percent of total national greenhouse gas emissions.

In addition, the discrepancy in methane source estimates is particularly pronounced in the south - central United States, where we find total emissions are ∼ 2.7 times greater than in most inventories and account for 24 ± 3 % of national emissions.

The number of ERCs each NGCC can produce is based on a complex combination of factors, including how much better the NGCC unit's emission rate is compared to the national fossil steam emission performance rate, the distribution of the total possible incremental generation across all NGCC units, and the total net energy output from the NGCC unit in the year for which ERCs are being calculated.

The category «National Total» does not include emissions resulting from fuel sold for use in ships or aircrafts engaged in international transport (international bunker fuel emissions).

For this reason, a joint research project between Widener University Commonwealth Law School and the University of Auckland recommended in Paris that national climate commitments be stated in tons of emissions over a specific period rather than percent reductions by a given date because waiting to the end of specific period to achieve percent reductions will cause the total tons of ghg emitted to be higher than if reductions are made earlier.

Yet the plan will set the first national limits on carbon pollution from power plants, which account for 37 percent of total U.S. carbon emissions.

Provided in the «Detailed data by Party» section of the UNFCCC GHG Data page; data are available not only for national totals but also for emissions / removals from individual categories

That is, every national ghg emissions reduction target is implicitly a position on: (a) a safe ghg atmospheric stabilization target; and (b) the nation's fair share of total global ghg emissions that will achieve safe ghg atmospheric concentrations.

National Overview Emissions from electricity generation made up just 11 % of Canada's total in 2014.

Any national ghg emissions reduction is implicitly a position on a safe atmospheric ghg concentration and that nation's fair share of total global emissions that will reach that target.

Based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Annual Greenhouse Gas Index (AGGI), the 2016 Global Carbon Project's Methane Budget and the 2017 EPA Greenhouse Gas Inventory, the paper finds that methane emissions from the U.S. natural gas industry account for just 1.2 percent of 2016 global methane emissions and 0.2 percent of total radiative forcing.

The data was requested by Nationals senator and party whip John Williams, who has argued that the carbon emissions produced by the new plants worldwide would eclipse Australia's total carbon emission profile.

5 % of total funds must be used to create a clean national transportation low emissions plan, which would establish an electric vehicle strategic deployment goal for 2020 and project the near - and long - term infrastructure and standardization needs for EVs, electricity providers, vehicle manufacturers, and electricity purchasers.

Since total global ghg emissions in 2010 already stood at 50.1 GtCO2e, and are increasing every year, reaching a 44 GtCO2e target by 2020 is extraordinarily daunting and much greater ambition is needed from the global community than can be seen in existing national ghg emissions reduction commitments.
