As part of the National Low Carbon Strategy adopted by France to attain carbon neutrality by 2050, the Ministry of the Ecological Transition defined a mean annual carbon budget for the following years. Reductions of the domestic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by around **, ***, and *** million metric tons of CO₂ equivalent were planned with respect to the baseline year 2015 until periods 2019-2023, 2024-2028, and 2029-2033, respectively. By 2029, the emission reduction targets by sector are: a decrease of ** percent in the transportation sector, which is the main GHG emitter in France, a reduction of ** percent in the building sector and a reduction of approximately ** percent of emissions from the industry, energy, and waste sectors.
In 2019 and 2020, the annual GHG emissions from waste management in France were still above ** million metric tons of CO₂ equivalent.
