Mexico Mexico aims to reduce its GHG emissions by 22 per cent (unconditional) and by 36 per cent (conditional) from BAU by 2030. Mexico’s INDC provides the resulting 2030 emission levels in MtCO2e. The target covers all sectors (energy, industrial processes and product use, agriculture, LULUCF, and waste) and six greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs and SF6).
The studies assessed adopted the official estimate of 2030 emissions from the INDC, and therefore agree on this figure. The 2020 pledge presented here is measured from a different baseline than that presented in the INDC (Fransen et al., 2015).
