Total emissions are the sum of direct plus indirect emissions.
Note(s):
Figures may not add up to total due to rounding. Direct emissions include all greenhouse gas emissions due to energy use in the home and for private motor vehicles. Indirect emissions are those business-sector emissions due to the production of the goods and services purchased by households. An estimate of the emissions from foreign companies due to the production of the imported goods purchased by Canadian households is included.
