BRUSSELS, Aug 16 — Greenhouse gas emissions across the European Union rose in the first quarter from a year earlier, but remained just below pre-pandemic levels, the bloc’s statistics office said today.

Households contributed 24 per cent of emissions for the period, Eurostat said, closely followed by the energy supply and manufacturing sectors, respectively accounting for 21 per cent and 20 per cent. Almost all member states registered an increase from the same period last year, with Bulgaria showing the largest rise across the bloc with a 38 per cent jump, followed by Malta with a 21 per cent increase.
