Norway Emissions Miss Target

摘要

Norway's greenhouse gas emissions last year were 7.4% above the country's Kyoto target for 2008-12, despite falling 2.2% from 2007, according to preliminary figures from the national statistics office (SSB). After jumping in 2007, emissions fell to 53.8 million tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent in 2008. The biggest decline was in manufacturing - previously the biggest emitter - where emissions dropped 3.7% to 14.1 million tons of CO2-equivalent.
