Analysis of key trends and drivers in greenhouse gas emissions in the EU between 1990 and 2014

This paper briefly analyses the major factors that accounted for decreased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions excluding land use, land use changes and forestry (LULUCF) in the EU-28. It consists of two parts: the first part looks at the year 2014 compared to 2013 and the second part looks at the whole
period between 1990 and 2014. The data is based on the EU’s GHG inventory submission to UNFCCC in 2016.
The paper ends with a quick overview of emission estimates for 2015 from other sources.
