Monitoring, Accounting and Reporting on Greenhouse Gases

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Monitoring, Accounting and Reporting encompasses the institutional, legal and procedural arrangements necessary to ensure that Canada meets its United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and Kyoto Protocol reporting obligations, that quality inventories are prepared, and that proper documentation and archiving occurs in order to facilitate third party review and to assess compliance with Canada's Kyoto Protocol target.

This site features a variety of information on GHGs, the greenhouse effect, FAQs, a searchable inventory of Canada's GHG emissions, and all the latest information and tools you need for measuring, verifying and reporting facility GHG emissions.
