1  Emissions not comprised by the Kyoto Protocol.
2  Emissions comprised by the Kyoto Protocol. Emissions from international sea and air transport are not included.
3  Global Warming Potential: Impact on greenhouse effect of emission of 1 tonne of the gas compared with that of 1 tonne CO2. The GWPs for HFCs and PFCs are given in intervals, as these are groups of gases with different GWP values.
