Sixth compilation and synthesis of initial national communications from Parties not included in Annex I to the Convention. Note by the secretariat. Addendum. Inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases.
This document compiles and summarizes information relating to national inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases (GHGs). It provides information on how Parties not included in Annex I to the Convention reported on their GHG inventories. In doing do, it addresses the methodological issues, as well as activity data, emission factors and reporting tables. The document also contains an overview of the GHG data submitted, including regional distribution of emissions and removals by gas by sector and per capita for 1994 or the closest year reported. The total amount of aggregate GHG emissions for that year of the 122 Parties that have reported is 11.7 billion tonnes CO2 equivalent without land-use change and forestry (LUCF) and 11.9 billion tonnes CO2 equivalent with LUCF. Finally, the document includes information about the financial and technical needs and constraints relating to GHG inventories identified by Parties in their initial national communications
