According to Statistics Estonia, CFC emissions were 14 kg in 2007 (figure 4.9), which is over 100 times less than in 1998. In 2003, atmospheric emissions of fully halogenated CFCs rose. The reason may be that CFCs were used while it was still possible – before accession to the European Union and the entry into force of the new restrictions. In 2004, atmospheric emissions fell significantly and have remained around 2–30 kg. HCFC emissions are much higher than in the case of CFCs but they have less depleting impact on the ozone layer. In 1998, 1,567 kg of HCFC emissions were generated in Estonia. This figure was down to 188 kilograms in 2007. 60 57.7 50 45.2 40 30 20 16.8 17.9 ODP-tons 10 0 9 3.6 3.9 1.1 2.6 0.5 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Figure 4.8.
