Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?

Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

CO2 emissions estimates - Land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF) (439) Metric type

Help text
This is the estimate in kilotonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (kt CO2e) emissions for land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF) (including removals of CO2 from the atmosphere, so that net emissions from this sector can sometimes be negative). This includes net emissions from forest land, cropland, grassland, wetlands, settlements, and harvested wood products.

Carbon dioxide is reported in terms of net emissions, which means total emissions minus total removals of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by carbon sinks. Carbon sinks are any process, activity or mechanism which removes a greenhouse gas, an aerosol or a precursor of a greenhouse gas from the atmosphere.

The data show emissions allocated on an "end-user" basis where emissions related to energy use are distributed according to the point of energy consumption. Emissions that are not energy related are distributed based on the point of emission.
