Domestic Greenhouse Gas Emissions Increased in 2010

The EPA has published the final version of its latest Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks, covering trends in domestic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and sequestration between 1990 and 2010.  Despite trends to “Go Green,” the report found that U.S. emissions totaled 6,822 million metric tons CO2-equivalent in 2010, a 3.2% increase relative to 2009 (when emissions fell due to the recession).  Noting that all major sectors of the U.S. economy increased energy consumption in 2010, the report attributed the increase primarily to the resumption of economic growth and warmer  summer temperatures.
