Abstract

A number of developing countries and countries with economies in transition have compiled preliminary national inventories of greenhouse gas emissions according to the Guidelines established by the IPCC. This paper synthesizes the interim results of national inventories compiled by 31 countries located in Africa, Asia, Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States, and Latin America. National emissions and sinks are discussed by sector in the context of socioeconomic information, methodological approaches, regional characteristics, and global trends; national emission estimates are also compared, when possible, to other published estimates that are based largely on international databases.
