SEI have just released a policy brief on Scotland's Footprint.

Our study has shown that Scotland's carbon footprint has grown by 11 per cent since 1992.

The figure includes greenhouse gases released overseas during the production of goods later consumed in Scotland and so is the most accurate gauge of the country's emissions to date.

While emissions generated in Scotland fell by 13 percent between 1995 and 2004, when trade is taken account, greenhouse gases rose by 11 per cent over the same period.

The full policy brief can be found on SEI's website.

An article has also be published in the Sunday Herald and can be found here.
