Greenhouse gas emissions: inventories and reporting

Accurate and transparent monitoring and reporting of Canada’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals is a requirement of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This is also key to demonstrating Canada’s progress in reducing greenhouse gases and combating climate change.
