The regional seas around Europe are the Baltic Sea, the Barents Sea, the Black Sea, the Iceland Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, the North-east Atlantic Ocean, the Norwegian Sea, and the White Sea. The regional seas are harmonised with existing boundaries established under the Regional Sea Conventions (OSPAR, HELCOM, Barcelona, and Bucharest Convention) and MSFD regions and subregions, as agreed by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive Committee in November 2016.
This data set show the European agriculture area in 2018 at 100m spatial resolution, covering EEA38 member countries and the United Kingdom. The raster value is 1 when agricultural area is identified and NoData for other land cover / land uses.
The figure shows waste generation per capita by European countries. Data presented in form of bar chart are displayed as a comparison of the reference (2010) and last available year.
This figure shows indexed values of waste generation per capita and gross domestic product (GDP) with year 2010 as a reference year (2010=100%). Production phase shows generation of total waste and waste excluding major mineral wastes. Gross domestic product (GDP) was chosen as a basic indicator of the economic growth as it expresses the total value of goods and services produced in the country (the components of GDP include personal consumption expenditures plus business investment plus government spending plus (exports minus imports)).
All Member States are requested by EU Regulation 1143/2014 to report every 6 years on the Invasive Alien Species (IAS) of Union, of regional and of Member State concern and to provide information on cross-cutting issues of the implementation of the Regulation.
This map shows the percentage change in total heatwave exposure of people over 65 years old for the period 2010-2020 compared to 2000-2009 in EEA member and cooperating countries plus the United Kingdom. The indicator has been calculated by multiplying the number of people aged 65 years and older years by number of heatwaves. Heatwaves are defined as periods of 2 or more days on which both the minimum and maximum temperatures are above the local 95th percentile (defined according to 1986-2005 baseline).
The map shows the current known distribution of 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘴 𝘴.𝘭. (𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘴 𝘴.𝘴., 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘷𝘶𝘴, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘢𝘦, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘪, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘦, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘴 𝘴.𝘭., 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘬𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘷𝘪, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘥𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘦, 𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘰𝘯) in Europe at ‘regional’ administrative level, as of March 2022.
The climatic suitability is an index ranging from 0 to 100. The P90 indicator of the climatic suitability is the 90th percentile value of the index range modelled across the city. The modelling is based on 100m resolution hourly temperature data (based on simulations with the urban climate model UrbClim). From this dataset, the climate suitability has been generated based on annual precipitation and the average temperature in January and during the summer months for the years 2008-2009. The selection of cities comes from the source data. For specific values for individual cities, see the Urban Adaptation Map Viewer.
The map shows the trend in heat attributable mortality incidence (annual deaths/million/decade) for the general population, 2000-2020.
This data set presents assessment of health risk due to exposure to three main pollutants (PM2.5, NO2 and O3-SOMO35) at NUTS3 and Country levels. In addition, average and population weighted average concentration values are available in the data set for PM10, PM2.5, NO2 and O3 (SOMO35). The calculations are made for years 2005 to 2020. The concentrations data are taken from the ETC/ATNI interpolated maps (ETC/ATNI Eionet Reports 1/2020/ and 1/2021 and references therein). The methodology is as described in ETC/ATNI Eionet Report 10/2021, aggregating at country level.
Data reported by companies on the production, import, export, destruction and feedstock use of fluorinated greenhouse gases in the European Union during the years 2007-2021. The primary data is synthesised and aggregated at EU level and used to assess the progress on HFC phase-down made under both EU legislation and the UN framework as part of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol.
This figure shows the progress of EU countries towards their Effort Sharing targets.
This figure shows greenhouse gas emissions under the European Union Emissions Trading System (ETS) since the start of the system. It includes the cap on allowances, as well as the existing and proposed targets for 2030.
The Effort Sharing Decision (ESD) No 406/2009/EC establishes annual greenhouse gas emission targets for Member States for the period 2013–2020. These targets concern emissions from most sectors not included in the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), such as transport, buildings, agriculture and waste. Emissions from land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF) and international shipping are not included. Every year, the EEA coordinates the ESD review of Member States’ greenhouse gas inventories, so that the European Commission can determine compliance with the annual ESD targets on the basis of accurate, reliable and verified emission data. Review reports and final ESD emissions are published by the European Commission. ESD emissions for the period 2005–2012 and for the latest year ("Y-1") are estimated by EEA on the basis of national GHG inventory data and ETS emissions.
The Governance Regulation ((EU) 2018/1999) requires Member States to annually report approximated greenhouse gas inventories by 31 July. A Union approximated greenhouse gas inventory is annually compiled on the basis of the Member States’ approximated greenhouse gas inventories or, if a Member State has not communicated its approximated inventories by that date, on the basis of own estimates.
The Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU (EED) and amending directive 2018/2002/EU establish a common framework for the promotion of energy efficiency within the Union in order to ensure the achievement of the Union’s target of 20 % reduction in energy consumption by 2020 and 32 % by 2030, and to pave the way for further energy efficiency improvements beyond that date. It also calls on Member States to set their own indicative national energy efficiency targets. Since early access to the most recent information on energy consumption is relevant for all stakeholders, the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME) produce each year a set of early estimates concerning the consumption of primary and final energy in the previous year, across the EU as a whole and in each Member State. These estimates are compatible with the scope of the energy efficiency targets for 2020 and 2030, and they correspond to the indicator codes PEC2020-2030 and FEC2020-2030 from Eurostat. The current data set concerns the EEA 2021 proxies on primary and final energy consumption (PEC2020-2030; FEC2020-2030).
The Renewable Energy Directive 2009/28/EC and its recast 2018/2001/EU commit the EU to achieving a 20 % share of renewable energy sources (RES) in its gross final energy consumption by 2020, and 32 % by 2030. They also set a target of 10 % share of renewable energy in transport by 2020, and 14% by 2030. Since early access to the most recent information on the growth of RES is relevant for all stakeholders, the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME) produce each year a set of early estimates concerning the RES shares achieved by the countries and the EU as a whole in the previous year. The current data set concerns the EEA 2021 RES share proxies. The cut-off date for most data sources incorporated in the calculation of the approximated RES shares is 31 July of the publication year.
The Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action ((EU) 2018/1999) requires Member States to report national projections of anthropogenic GHG emissions. Every two years, each EU Member State shall report GHG projections in a ‘with existing measures’ scenario for the years 2020, 2025, 2030, 2035 and 2040, by gas (or group of gases) and by sector. National projections shall take into consideration any policies and measures adopted at Union level. The reported data are quality checked by the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME).
