Note: The aggregated emissions (CO2)ekv were calculated with the use of radiation potential of individual greenhouse gases pursuant to the valid methodology (e.g. for CO2 = 1, CH4 = 21, N2O = 310). The balance includes also the uptakes of emission in the sector changes in the use of landscape and forestry.
