Questions
Of two kinds:Concerning
the correct identification of the connections with products and the proposed allocation to economic activities;Concerning the possibility of generalizing (in particular, to non-Annex 1 Countries) this kind of workSlide9
Type
1 questions: some examples
Emissions from Wildfires allocated to “Other ISIC and Households”;Crop residues left on soil allocated to
Environmental
Assets relevant for AFF activities
row, because they provide
a fertilisation service to the following years’ production
. However, they are due to current crop production (crops row) and
emit this year…Emissions from manure
management allocated to the “manure” product (“other products” row). However, manure is connected to
livestocks and animal production…Emissions from Manure
left on Pasture allocated to Environmental Assets
relevant for AFF activities row (
grassland). However
…Emissions from Manure Applied
to Soil allocated to Crops Primary row…Emissions from “Harvested wood products”, provisionally allocated “
Other ISIC and Households”, as we considered them deriving from the use of these products, which mainly occurs outside AFF activities. Is this correct?
Other borderline cases surely present!Slide10
Type
2 questions
Annex-1 countries UNFCCC reporting tool (CRF) is complete and detailed. Can a mapping with other (IPCC-compliant) estimates be established, even if the latter have lower levels of detail?Is the level
of detail
of the
CRF
high
enough for establishing the most important correspondences
with economic activities and products or is there a big need for pro-quota
allocation?Can the connections proposed in this paper be the basis for a set of guidelines for the transformation of UNFCCC communication data into table 4.5 of the SEEA AFF?
Which adaptations are required to allow exploitation of existing national and international databases?
