Accounting for Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with the Supply of Fossil Fuels

Published:October 2013

Author(s):Peter Erikson, Michael Lazarus

Publisher:Stockholm Environment Institute

This discussion brief explores how an extraction-based emissions accounting tracks and accounts for the emissions associated with fossil fuels as they are brought into the world economy, and the implications of taking such an approach.Read More →
