The goal for 2030 is to reach 2214 MtCO2 which, starting from 2021, represent a decrease of 147 MtCO2 per year. With a reduction of 197 MtCO2 achieved between 2021 and 2022, the target remains within reach, provided similar or accelerated progress continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, only two sectors (energy industries and transport) are increasing their emissions compared to 2021. The rise in transport emissions aligns with the gradual recovery from the pandemic-related restrictions of 2020. In the energy industry, increased coal combustion has contributed to higher emissions. However, these increases have been offset by reductions in emissions across other sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read the full article\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/saf.org.ua\/en\/news\/2225\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/saf.org.ua\/en\/news\/2225\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><strong>on the SAF platform<\/strong><\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We remind you that UABIO is a partner of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/saf.org.ua\/en\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Sustainable agribusiness platform (SAF)<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SAF<\/strong>&nbsp;is a communication platform that brings together agribusiness stakeholders and aims to establish strong links between market players and introduce sustainable approaches in agriculture.
