Greenhouse Gas Accounting Learning Objectives Upon completing this course, you will be able to: Explain GHG accounting, why it’s an important corporate issue, and how investors and corporations generally use
Marginal abatement cost curve (MACC) analysis allows the evaluation of strategies to reduce agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions relative to some reference scenario and encompasses their costs or benefits. A popular approach to quantify the potential to abate national agricultural emissions is the...

A greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory is defined as “an account of greenhouse gases emitted to or removed from operating procedures and societies within a defined boundary over a specified period of time by governments/enterprises.” GHGs, as defined under the Kyoto Protocol, refers to: carbon dioxid...
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions accounting is an important factor in the design and implementation of climate mitigation policy1,2. In addition to production-based GHG emissions accounting (PBA) that has provided a baseline for climate science and policy regimes3,4,5, consumption-based accounting (...
Accounting of emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) is a major focus within waste management. This paper analyses and compares the four main types of GHG accounting in waste management including their special features and approaches: the national accounting, with reference to the Intergovernmental Panel ...
However, the greenhouse gas (GHG) budget of carbon pools and sinks in China are not fully understood, and the forestry net C sink must be determined. The objective of this study was to analyze potential forest management mitigation strategies by evaluating the GHG emissions from forest management...
