Potential sector for GHGs mitigation

Based line emission sector increased from 2,632 GgCO2 eq. in
2000 to 25,549 GgCO2 eq. by 2050.

Emission per capita is still low (0.2 t CO2 eq. in 2000 to 1.3 tCO2
eq. by 2050

Fuel wood demand is projected to decrease from 49% in 2000 to
13% in 2050

Transportation is project largest increase and share of emission
in 2050 at 10.816 Gt CO2 eq. to 8,888 Gt CO2 eq.

Agri., Land us, and forest emission

Overall, emission from LULUCF is project to increase from 88,22 Gt CO2 eq. in 2000 to 34,112 Gt CO2 eq. by 2050.

Agriculture sector is project to double increase from 21,559 Gt
CO2 eq. in 2000 and 38,601 Gt CO2, eq. by 2050.


Emission from agricultural sector is increased

agricultural soil (2,362-6,362 Gt CO2 eq.),

crop cultivation and 4,872-10,018 Gt CO2 eq.

Livestock (14,365-22,625 Gt CO2 eq.)
LULUCF is became emitter in Cambodia.
