Global emissions data are used in monitoring and analysis of trends in international emissions and<br />
other use in integrated assessments at national, EU and global (UNEP) level. More specifically,<br />
EDGAR data - supplemented with recent trend data are used in integrated assessments - have been<br />
used for trend analysis of global emissions as well as analysis of regional distribution of present<br />
global emissions. Results of this work were used in integrated assessments such as <strong>RIVM</strong>'s annual<br />
national (QYLURQPHQWDO %DODQFHV and accompanying background <strong>report</strong>s (Environmental<br />
Compendium) (<strong>RIVM</strong>, 1997/98/99/2000a,b) and the national (QYLURQPHQWDO 2XWORRNV (<strong>RIVM</strong>,<br />
1997a,b; 2000a,b). Also data were provided for EEA's (QYLURQPHQWDO 6LJQDOV <strong>report</strong> (EEA, 2000).<br />
The EDGAR datasets are also part of the core datasets for global integrated environmental<br />
assessments made in the *OREDO(QYLURQPHQWDO2XWORRNV (GEO) of UNEP. As an illustration this type<br />
of application we present in this chapter a background analysis carried out for the (QYLURQPHQWDO<br />

Except for halocarbons, the emissions of greenhouse gases are, globally seen, continuously increasing<br />
(Fig. 2.1). The largest contribution to CO 2 -eq. emissions is the CO 2 from industrialised countries,<br />
even though the growth in emissions is mainly caused by the strong economic growth in other<br />
countries, in particular South-east Asia. In 1996, global CO 2 emissions increased about 5% compared<br />
to those in 1995; global CH 4 emissions increased by 2%, against 0% increase for N 2 O. Halocarbon<br />
emissions (expressed as CO 2 -eq. using direct GWP values only) decreased by 10%.<br />
