In "Austria's Annual Greenhouse Gas Inventory 1990–2011" the Umweltbundesamt presents updated figures of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Austria. In 2011, the fourth year of the first commitment period under the Kyoto Protocol, GHG emissions amounted to 82.8 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents. This corresponds to a 6.0% increase against the base-year level and to a 2.6% decrease compared to 2010. The key driver for the decrease from 2010 to 2011 was the decreasing consumption of fossil fuels due to mild temperatures and the high crude oil price.
