* Teq CO2 = tonnes of CO2 equivalent = the global warming potential of a greenhouse gas, calculated by equivalence with an amount of CO2 that would have the same warming potential
The values have been rounded.
Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) acts as a greenhouse gas due to its very high heat retention capacity. It is the most powerful greenhouse gas under the Kyoto Protocol.
