Emissions from international aviation and international maritime navigation, not covered by the Kyoto Protocol, are not included here
Some Member States did not report projections for all sectors or scenarios
The baseline for calculating the consumption of pesticides per hectare was total agricultural land area (even though pesticides are not applied on all farmland)

Elements of the graph are taken directly from these specified categories in the Eurostat Data Explorer (for further information, see Annex 4: Description of main data sources), with the exception of losses in transformation, which is based on the categories: 'Transformation input' minus 'Transformation output'
The sectoral shares have been calculated using available sectoral data at the time of writing this chapter
Left: This graph shows past (1990-2004) carbon dioxide emissions due to public electricity and heat production, and compares them with past and projected electricity production in thermal power plants and final electricity consumption
Wetland concentration in Europe, with special interest in the coastal wetlands.
Total EU freight transport (tonne-km) includes road, rail, inland waterways, short-sea shipping and oil pipelines
