CO2 emissions estimates - Grand total (LA influence) (8247) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the estimate in kilotonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (kt CO2e) emissions for all sectors within the scope of influence of Local Authorities.
The full dataset includes all emissions that occur within the boundaries of each local authority; the subset however excludes emissions that authorities do not have any direct influence over, these include: Motorways; EU Emissions Trading System sites; Diesel railways; Land use, Land Use Change, and Forestry (all emissions belonging to the LULUCF Net Emissions). Removing these emissions has a much bigger impact on some Local Authorities than others, as some Local Authorities have a much bigger proportion of emissions from the above sources than others. This is a measure of estimated for all sectors at a local authority level. The sum of CO2 emission estimates for Industry and Commercial Electricity; Industry and Commercial Gas; Large Industrial Installations; Industrial and Commercial Other Fuels; Agriculture; Domestic Electricity; Domestic Gas; Domestic 'Other Fuels'; Road Transport (A roads); Road Transport (Minor roads); Transport Other; Waste management. The purpose of these estimates is to assist those using local emissions accounting as a tool in developing emissions reduction strategies.
