Greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union in the first quarter has increased since 2020, but they remain below pre-Covid levels, according to data released by Eurostat.
The EU's statistical agency, Eurostat, tracks greenhouse gas emissions from several economic activities, including transportation, manufacturing, businesses, and households. The emissions include methane, nitrous oxide, and carbon dioxide.
Each greenhouse gas is assigned a metric referred to as its global warming potential (GWP), which is used to convert greenhouse gas emissions into a measure knowned as carbon dioxide.
