This fast-track consensus study will develop a framework for evaluating global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) information to support decision making. The committee will examine emerging approaches that supplement self-reported data with other independent data sources in the development and evaluation of global anthropogenic GHG emissions inventories.
