Achieving Emission Reductions without Furthering Social Inequality: Lessons From the 2007 Economic Crisis and the COVID-19 Pandemic, 2001-2020

DOI

These data show consumption-based greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of UK households from 2001-2020. As demographic variables, income decile and age group are attached. Emissions are shown in two different ways. First, emissions are shown for each year individually. Second, emissions are shown as a 2007 equivalent. These second data show the emissions that consumption from the different years would have caused assuming the economic structure and emission coefficients from 2007. Data are reported as a carbon equivalent, meaning that all GHGs are converted into their carbon equivalent. The GHGs included are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulphur hexafluoride and nitrogen trifluoride.Doctoral Training Partnerships: a range of postgraduate training is funded by the Research Councils. For information on current funding routes, see the common terminology at https://www.ukri.org/apply-for-funding/how-we-fund-studentships/. Training grants may be to one organisation or to a consortia of research organisations. This portal will show the lead organisation only.

We use secondary data throughout the analysis. Please see the data_collection_methods document for more details.
