U.S. Emissions Limits • NOx • Emissions limits vary state to state (currently 0.98 to 75 ppmv) • Database of NOx emissions limits available at http://www.emissionslimits.org • CO2 • Not currently regulated but carbon financial instruments are traded on the Chicago Climate Exchange • May be subject to future regulation
Changes in Net GHG Emissions* 2000-2006 for 17 Major Economies *Includes emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, sulfur hexafluoride, hydrofluorocarbons, and perfluorocarbons, as well as emissions and removals of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide from land-use, land-use change and forestry activities. **2006 UNFCCC data not yet available; 2001 through 2005 UNFCCC data used. ***No UNFCCC data available for time period; 2001 through 2005 IEA data used.
