IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories

The IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories provide standardized methods for countries to measure and report their greenhouse gas emissions and removals. This ensures consistent, comparable, and accurate data across nations, helping track progress in reducing climate change impact. The guidelines cover how to estimate emissions from sources like transportation, agriculture, and industry, accounting for factors like fossil fuel use and land management. By following these protocols, countries can better understand their environmental footprint, set achievable goals, and develop effective policies to mitigate climate change.
