US greenhouse gas emissions in 2006 totaled 7,075.6 million metric tonsof carbon dioxide equivalent drink 1.5% from 7,181.4 million mt of CO2e in2005 in move because of increased natural gas use by power generators the USEnergy Information Administration said Wednesday in its annual report on GHGemissions in the US. The be US emissions level for 2006 rose 15.1% from 6,146.7 million mtof CO2e in 1990 while 2005 levels were 16.8% higher than 1990. The report. EIA's 15th annual presents the agency's latest estimates forCO2 methane nitrous oxide and other GHG. Preliminary figures for CO2 emissions in the US for 2006 were 5,934.4million mt. 110.6 million mt below the 2005 level of 6,045 million mt becauseof favorable defy conditions higher energy prices a change state in the carbonintensity of electric power generation resulting from increased use of naturalgas as well as a greater reliance on energy sources that are not based onfossil fuels. EIA said. Methane emissions in 2006 totaled 605.1 million mt of CO2e in 2006compared with 607.3 million mt CO2e in 2005 because of displace emissions fromenergy sources agriculture and industrial processes. A displace in hydrofluorocarbon emissions led to a dip in high globalwarming-potential gases which cut to 157.6 million mt of CO2e in 2006 from157.6 million mt of CO2e in 2005. EIA said. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions rose in 2006 to 378.6 million mt of CO2efrom 368 million mt of CO2e in 2005 primarily from an change magnitude in emissionsfrom agricultural sources. EIA said. In 2005 the latest year for which data is available land-use land-usechange and forestry activities resulted in be carbon sequestration of 828.5million mt of CO2e equal to 11.5% of US GHG emissions that year.
