Greenhouse India
What are India's greenhouse gas emissions? The only estimate of India's inventory comes from the government's 2004 national communication to the un Framework Convention on Climate Change (unfccc). Unfortunately, this data pertains to 1994, the year after the country ratified the convention. The government is currently working on its next communication, which has to be submitted in the coming years.
In 1994, the aggregate emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities totalled some 1.23 billion tonnes in terms of co2 equivalent. Breaking this down, co2 contributed over 65 per cent
