Figure 5: Belgian greenhouse gas emissions between 1990 and 2007

Belgian greenhouse gas emissions between 1990 and 2007 (excluding LULUCF) compared with the Kyoto objective. The assumed base year for CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions is 1990. For fluorinated gases (HFC, PFC and SF6) on the other hand, the assumed base year is 1995. The index value 100 on the Y-axis corresponds to the sum of CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions in 1990 and HFC, PFC and SF6 emissions in 1995. Since there was an increase of fluorinated gas emissions in Belgium during the period 1990-1995, the total of greenhouse gas emissions in 1990 is less than 100 %. The blue curve thus represents the total emissions of greenhouse gasses according to two different time references.
