The European Union (EU) as a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) reports annually on its greenhouse gas inventory for the year t-2 and within the area covered by its Member States. The inventory contains data on carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) and nitrogen trifluoride (NF3). The the European Union inventory is fully consistent with national greenhouse gas inventories compiled by the the European Union Member States.
