Climate change is considered to be one of the greatest challenges facing mankind. It is believed to be caused by greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. Climate change can be mitigated by ecosystems, such as forests, water bodies and bogs that absorb carbon dioxide emitted into the air. Climate statistics provide an overview of greenhouse gas emissions in Estonia. The data help us see what precisely causes greenhouse gas emissions. Climate statistics provide information on greenhouse gas emissions per GDP and per capita; greenhouse gas emissions from the energy sector; emissions of

The focus of the global goal “Climate Action” is to mitigating the impact from climate change and adapting to it. The average global temperature continues to rise and global sea ice is shrinking. This causes floods and natural disasters to occur more often and increases the risk of species extinction. The 2030 Agenda lays down the target to mitigate climate change as well as adapt to it. Political programmes and strategies must include these topics. It is necessary to raise awareness about climate change, capacity to mitigate it and adjust to it, reduce its impact and provide early warning. On

  3. Pesticide sales were up by 10% last year
Swen Peterson, leading analyst at Statistics Estonia, said that herbicides are still the most sold type of plant protection products. “In 2024, sales of herbicides totalled 597 tonnes, which is over 80 tonnes more than in 2023. Sales of insecticides increased by a fourth, while sales of fungicides decreased by a tenth compared with 2023,” explained Peterson. Herbicides accounted for 76%, fungicides for 13%, growth regulators for 9% and insecticides for 1.6% of the total amount of pesticides sold. In recent years, there has been a rise in the sold quantities of herbicides and insecticides, but

  3. Renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions are the main drivers of Estonia’s output of environmental goods and services
Environmental goods and services refer to production activities which have as their main purpose the prevention, reduction and elimination of pollution and of any other degradation of the environment, as well as the safeguarding of natural resources against depletion. In the renewable energy field, for example, the relevant goods and services include solar panels and wind turbines as well as their installation and maintenance, but also the production of renewable energy and related energy carriers. In the circular economy and waste management domain, the environmental goods include, for

  3. At-risk-of-poverty rate down, absolute poverty rate up in Estonia
Epp Remmelg, leading analyst at Statistics Estonia, said that the at-risk-of-poverty rate reflects income inequality in a country. “People at risk of poverty are not living in outright deprivation, but they cannot afford the standard of living that is considered normal in society,” the analyst noted. In 2024, close to 263,200 people lived at risk of poverty, which is nearly 11,600 fewer than in 2023. Their net monthly income, taking into account household composition, i.e. the equivalised disposable income, was less than €858, which is the at-risk-of-poverty threshold in 2024. The at-risk-of

  3. Share of environmental goods and services sector in GDP up by a quarter in eight years
Kaia Oras, a leading expert at Statistics Estonia, explained that the growth in demand for environmental goods and services has been due to both increased awareness of environmental problems as well as higher environmental and energy saving requirements, especially in construction. “The rapid growth in energy-efficient new construction and reconstruction of buildings has a huge impact. Together, these generated €1.5 billion in output,” Oras added. Among the energy produced from renewables, electricity and heat production from renewable energy sources accounted for €482.2 million and the
