It illustrates correlations between Danish final use and emissions of greenhouse gases from Danish and international production. Global emission of greenhouse gases from Danish consumption and investment constitutes Denmark's Climate Footprint. The statistic is experimental and have been prepared since 2021 in collaboration with the Danish Energy Agency, which uses it for the annual publication "Danmarks Globale Klimapåvirkning – Global Afrapportering"., Statistical presentation, The statistics show the amount of greenhouse gas that has been emitted in the supply chains for Danish final use annually from 1990 onwards. The emissions are distributed by type of final use, emitting industries and countries, as well as by supplying industries., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The climate footprint is calculated with a multi-regional environmental economic input-output (MRIO) model that links data from Statistics Denmark on Danish production and greenhouse gas emissions with data from the international database EXIOBASE on international production and greenhouse gas emissions., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The climate footprint is relevant for everyone who is interested in relations between Danish consumption and investment and global emissions of greenhouse gases.

The majority of the figures in this statistic are the result of calculations with Danish and international input-output models. The international input-output model in particular is uncertain because it is a compilation of figures from many countries of uneven quality. However, it is assessed that the precision is as good as it can be at the present time, when available sources and methods are taken into account., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The climate footprint is an experimental statistic and does not yet have a fixed publication time. When a publication date is determined, it is published in Statistics Denmark's publication calendar., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics are compiled for 1990 and onwards and are comparable over time. The statistics have been produced in collaboration with the Danish Energy Agency and are used for the Danish Energy Agency's report "Danmarks Globale Klimapåvirkning – Global Afrapportering". there will therefore be full agreement between results published by the Danish Energy Agency and Statistics Denmark., As there is not yet full international agreement on methods and data bases for calculating climate footprints, there will not necessarily be full comparability with the calculations of other institutions or other countries., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, In the Statbank, the climate footprint is published under the subject , Energy and air emission accounts, in table AFTRYK1., Read more about accessibility and clarity
