This standard provides requirements and guidance for companies and other organizations to quantify and publicly report an inventory of GHG emissions and removals associated with a specific product.

This standard (also referred to as the Scope 3 Standard) provides requirements and guidance for companies and other organizations to prepare and publicly report a GHG emissions inventory that includes indirect emissions resulting from value chain activities (i.e., scope 3 emissions).

A new report, “[The Role of Driving in Reducing GHG Emissions and Oil Consumption: Recommendations for Federal Transportation Policy](http://www.wri.org/publication/role-of-driving-in-reducing-g...

This report explores whether technology improvements alone can achieve oil consumption and GHG emissions reduction targets consistent with recent draft legislation and international climate negotiations.

ADB President Calls for “Radical Steps” on Clean Energy

Update [10/17/2011]: WRI has released the latest edition of Climate Science.

Last year, in an effort to make our climate data more accessible, WRI launched a pilot that paired estimates of U.S. state greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from our Climate Analysis Indicators Tool (CAIT) with the Google Public Data Explorer, a tool that visualizes large data sets with interactive charts and maps.

Forty-one developing countries have submitted mitigation actions under the UNFCCC in line with the 2010 Cancun agreements. This paper examines the subset of developing country actions that are framed in greenhouse gas (GHG) terms.

Ensuring that the opportunities of clean energy are available to the nations that need them most by guiding effective international collaboration on low-carbon technology.

Building the capacity of developing countries to track progress towards meeting domestic climate, energy, and development goals.

Working with nations to achieve the twin goals of robust economic growth and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

Today, the government of the United Kingdom took a significant step to shift to a low-carbon economy, providing clear signals to investors that the UK wants to host large-scale clean energy projects moving forward.
