According to the report, GHG emissions in 2012 showed a 10% drop below 2005 levels, and were only slightly above the emissions in 1994 (6,520 million metric tons). CO 2 emissions are produced by the electricity generation sector as they consume fossil fuel to provide electricity to one of the other four end-use sectors.
