Interpretive Summary: This U.S. Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory provides national-level estimates of emissions of the primary GHGs (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorine containing halogen substances) across a broad range of sectors (energy, industrial processes, solvent use, agriculture, land use change and forestry, and waste). Although not extensive, some State and regional emission emissions data are part of the inventory development process and can be used for more disaggregated analyses. This report customizes the data from the U.S. GHG inventory in a manner that is useful to agriculture and forestry producers and related industries, natural resource and agricultural professionals, as well as technical assistance providers, researcheres and policymakers.
