GDP forecasting and greenhouse gas emissions – an integrated approach
The Annual Economic Report 2022 of the German Federal Government recommends focusing more rigorously on the consequences of economic activity, particularly for the environment and climate. We propose a simple approach for systematically integrating the expected greenhouse gas emissions into our economic forecast for Germany. It currently indicates that greenhouse gas emissions will drop in 2022 and 2023, albeit less than intended. The approx. 38 million t CO2 equivalent in average annual emissions exceeding the target level are practically equal to the total GHG emissions of Slovakia in the pre-pandemic year 2019.
