该研究询问城市在减少温室气体排放方面做得如何。2004-2009年期间，从六个城市重复温室气体排放清单的数据进行检查：柏林，波士顿，大多伦多，伦敦，纽约市和西雅图。所有城市都在减少人均温室气体排放，主要是通过改变固定燃烧方式。平均而言，这些城市的人均排放量每年减少0.27吨CO（2）e/人;这与国家城市的平均排放率大致相同，尽管从百分比来看，这些城市的减排速度更快。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The study asks how well are cities doing in reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. Data from six cities with repeat GHG emission inventories for the period 2004-2009 is examined: Berlin, Boston, Greater Toronto, London, New York City and Seattle. All of the cities are reducing their per capita GHG emissions, primarily through changes to stationary combustion. On average the cities are reducing per capita emissions by 0.27 t CO(2)e/capita per year; this is about the same average rate as the cities nation states, although the cities are reducing emissions faster in percentage terms.
