The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released the Draft Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2022 for public review and comment, as announced in the Federal Register. This annual report tracks greenhouse gas emissions and sinks in the United States, providing a comprehensive overview of emissions from various sources and economic sectors since 1990. It includes data on carbon dioxide removal through natural processes like forest growth and soil absorption. The gases covered include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and others. The report is an essential part of the country's commitment to international agreements like the Paris Agreement and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
The EPA collaborates with numerous experts and organizations to compile this report, collecting data from various sources including individual facilities and suppliers. To facilitate access to this data, the EPA has developed an interactive tool called the Greenhouse Gas Inventory Data Explorer, allowing users to analyze trends, create graphs, and download information. Public comments on the draft report are invited until March 15, 2024, to ensure that all perspectives are considered before the final report is published in April.
