Information about the change

Database tables 111k and 111x of the Kyoto Protocol's second commitment period are archived because the commitment period ended to the year 2020 and the reporting under it is no longer updated.

The following revisions were made to Database table 138v -- Greenhouse gas emissions in Finland, 1990-2022:

  1. Subcategories were added to the table for the agriculture and land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sectors and in relation to the use of F-gases under the industrial processes and product use sector.
  2. The alternative “Emission, 1,000 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent (GWP=AR4)” was removed from the Information variable because greenhouse gas emission reporting has moved to global warming potential (GWP) values according to the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), by which greenhouse gas volumes are translated into a common measure, carbon dioxide equivalent.

Annual emission allocations for the commitment period 2021 to 2025, actual emissions in the effort sharing sector and the difference between the allocations and emissions are given in Database table 13n3 - Greenhouse gas emission data according to the EU effort sharing regulation.
