Source: Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, 2023. Green House Gas Emissions tabels (2006-2022). Ramallah - Palestine. The estimates of emissions to air for Palestine is based on the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (2006 Guidelines). For more details about the methodology, data quality and calculations https://www.pcbs.gov.ps/Downloads/book2205.pdf. Data was collected from various key institutions: the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) surveys , the Ministry of Local Governments, the Ministry of Agriculture, and Energy balance.
*: Key categories are defined as the sources of emissions that have a significant influence on the inventory as a whole, in terms of the absolute level of the emissions, the trend, or both.
L: Level Assessment (the major sources of producing emissions by quantity): that sources which contribute by 95% of the total emissions on the national level, it is sorted assending by its contribution of the total emissions.
T: Trend Assessment (the major sources of producing emissions by trend): Those sources whose direction of increasing or decreasing is significantly different from the direction of all national missions.
