National Air emission accounts by activity, EUROSTAT

Air emissions accounts record emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants in the European Union (EU) showing the economic activities responsible for their production (in line with the ‘polluter pays’ principle), following the same classification that is used within national accounts, namely the statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community (NACE). Air emissions accounts are thus an extension of emissions inventories, such as those used for official reporting under international obligations (for example, the Kyoto Protocol).
