One way of attributing greenhouse gas emissions is to measure the embedded emissions of goods that are being consumed. This is different from the question of to what extent the policies of one country to reduce emissions affect emissions in other countries. The UNFCCC measures emissions according to production, rather than consumption. Consequently, embedded emissions on imported goods are attributed to the exporting, rather than the importing, country. The question of whether to measure emissions on production instead of consumption is partly an issue of equity, i.e., who is responsible for emissions.
