The Nordic countries’ total GHG emissions, including the LULUCF sector, have been reduced from 203 million tonnes of CO2e in 1990 to 150 million tonnes of CO2e in 2021, corresponding to a 26% reduction. This overall reduction can primarily be attributed to the emission reductions in the energy sector of 54 million tonnes of CO2e from 1990 to 2021.
However, emissions from industrial processes, domestic transport and agriculture have only fallen slightly in the period, while the LULUCF sector has seen an increase in net emissions by 21 million tonnes of CO2e. Figure 15, below, provides an overview of the total Nordic sectoral emissions.
