This leads to rising temperatures and broader climate disruption. Changes in land use and forestry practices also influence the balance of GHGs, as they affect the capacity of carbon sinks to capture or release emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) primarily from fossil fuels combustion and deforestation, is the main contributor to climate change, comprising the largest share of global GHG emissions. National emissions are increasingly influenced by global demand and supply chains. As carbon-intensive production is relocated abroad, domestic emission reductions may be partially or wholly offset by increases elsewhere. This underscores the need to assess emissions from both production and consumption perspectives. Source: oecd.org |
