RALI GHG MRV Harmonization Framework

United States Agency for International Development (USAID)
This guide, RALI GHG MRV Harmonization Framework provides a “turn-key” approach for national inventory teams, mitigation activity implementers, and other climate change practitioners to successfully apply the Harmonization Framework to a selected mitigation activity, and can be used to improve national GHG accounting.

What is Driving Changes in Local GHG Emissions?: Results from contribution analysis

ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability
What is Driving Changes in Local GHG Emissions?: Results from contribution analysis presents results from applying a new technique called Contribution Analysis to three sets of local community greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory data in the US.

Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventories (GPC)

World Resources Institute (WRI), C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40)
The GHG Protocol is working to give cities, which are responsible for more than 70 percent of global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions, the standards and tools they need to measure their emissions, build more effective emissions reduction strategies, set measurable and more ambitious emission reduction goals, and track their progress more accurately and comprehensively.

Climate Action Planning: Developing a Provincial Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Emissions Scenarios Modeling

United States Agency for International Development (USAID)
This case study describes GHG inventories and emissions scenarios, and their value to policy and decision makers. The study then presents the approaches used to develop the Mpumalanga inventory and scenarios, discusses the key data sources and challenges, and summarizes lessons for others developing sub-national inventories and future scenarios.

Measure the Chain: Tools for assessing GHG emissions in agricultural supply chains

Ceres, CGIAR, CDP
This report provides an overview of available resources (i.e. standards, methodologies, tools, and calculators) for assessing emissions from agricultural production and agriculturally-driven land-use change.

UAE National Air Emissions Inventory Project – Final Results

United Arab Emirates Ministry of Climate Change & Environment
This report presents the results from Phase II of the Air Emissions Inventory Project. It is the first national air pollutant emission inventory carried out for the whole country. The emissions inventory shows that emissions from the stationary energy and transport sectors dominate the emission sources. For particulate matter, the dominant source is industrial processes and product use (IPPU). Although the agriculture and waste sectors have a minor contribution to the country’s overall emissions, their role is more significant in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. However, of particular note are the estimated high non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) emissions from municipal solid waste disposal on land.

GGGI Thailand - Industry GHG Reduction to Support Implementation of Thailand's Climate Change Master Plan

Organisation: 
Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI)
The Royal Thai Government (RTG)'s Climate Change Master Plan, developed for the period of 2014-2050, is one of the government's key initiatives and aims to lead the country to a Low Carbon Society by 2050 by reducing GHG emissions within a sustainable growth framework.

A Case Study on the Development of Technical Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Reporting in South Africa

World Bank Group
This report forms part of a project that aims to develop technical guidelines for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting in South Africa. It describes the lessons learned in building guidance for mandatory GHG reporting in a country that has shown leadership in voluntary corporate GHG reporting.

City Climate Planner Certificate Program

Cities are quickly becoming the world’s center for business and commerce, accounting for over 80% of the world’s economic activity, but also contributing to two-thirds of the world’s overall energy consumption, and about 70% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
