1. From the Greenhouse Gas Inventories for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland: 1990 - 2006. Emissions are available annually only with effect from 1998. All the figures in this table have been updated to reflect changes to the medodology used. They are therefore not comparable with those previously published.
2. The method used to estimate carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from road transport is based on vehicle kilometre travelled data constrained so that the sum of emissions across all parts of the UK equates to the total for the UK inventory where that total is derived from fuel sales data of petrol and DERV within the UK as specified in the reporting guidelines of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Further detail can be found in Section 4.8 of the commentary.
3. Includes emissions from miltary aircraft, aircraft support vehicles, railways stationary combustion and naval shipping.
4. Net emissions take account of removals of carbon dioxide due to Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry ( LULUCF)
5. Includes LPG and road vehicle engines.
