Title

Carbon Footprint - Summary Final Demand

Description

This publication looks at the carbon footprint for the UK.

The carbon footprint refers to emissions that are associated with the consumption spending of UK/England's residents on goods and services, wherever in the world these emissions arise along the supply chain, and those which are directly generated by UK/England's households through private motoring and burning fuel to heat homes. These emissions are often referred to as 'consumption emissions' to distinguish them from estimates relating to the emissions 'produced' within a country's territory or economic sphere.
