This Week’s Emissions: Queensland

The Greenhouse Indicator provides accurate and real time information on greenhouse gases produced each week in Queensland from energy use.

The weekly Indicator accounts for about 80% of Queensland's total energy emissions and 45% of the State's total greenhouse gas emissions. Remaining emissions come from agriculture, land use, waste, industrial processes, electricity generated on-site by industry and fugitive emissions from coal mining.

Greenhouse gas emissions in Queensland not included by the Indicator are estimated to be on average 1.9 million tonnes per week.
