Which of the following is the correct sequence of sectors in the order of decreasing GHGs emissions?
Which of the following is the correct sequence of sectors in the order of decreasing GHGs emissions?
The correct option is A Electricity production – Industry – Agriculture - Transportation
India is fourth largest carbon emitter in the world in terms of per capita emission accounting for 6.6 % of global emissions for the year 2012. It was revealed by the World Resources Institute (WRI) in its latest analyses of the country-wise carbon emissions of climate-damaging greenhouse gases (GHGs).
Sector wise: energy sector is the largest source of GHGs emissions accounting for more than 75% of global emissions. Industrial and agricultural sectors also have significantly contributed in GHGs emissions.
According to a report from UN’s FAO, livestock are one of the most significant contributors to today’s most serious environmental problems,” and Cattle-rearing generates more global warming greenhouse gases, as measured in CO2 equivalent, than transportation.
