Inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases

Inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases

Anthropogenic underwater noise

People are still figuring out what a balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases actually means.

This document compiles and summarizes information relating to national inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases (GHGs).

Anthropogenic underwater noise pollution

Reductions in anthropogenic emissions by sources shall be adjusted for leakage in accordance with the provisions of appendix B for the relevant project categories.

Canada has adopted a comprehensive approach that addresses emissions of all greenhouse gases from anthropogenic sources and the sequestering of these gases by sinks.

Inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases In accordance with Article 4, paragraph 1 (a), and Article 12, paragraph 1 (a), of the Convention, Parties provided information on their national inventory of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removal by sinks of GHGs not controlled by the Montreal Protocol.

Estimates for Article 3, paragraphs 3 and 4, shall be clearly distinguished from anthropogenic emissions from the sources listed in Annex A to the Kyoto Protocol.

Guidelines for national systems for the estimation of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions by sources and removals by sinks under Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Kyoto Protocol

Reductions in anthropogenic emissions by sources shall be adjusted for leakage in accordance with the monitoring and verification provisions in paragraphs 59 and 62 (f) below, respectively.

Most notable is the fact that carbon dioxide, the major anthropogenic greenhouse gas, and many conventional air pollutants come from the same sources (burning of fossil fuels) and can thus be simultaneously addressed through mitigation of those sources.

II. Inventories of anthropogenic emissions and removals

National systems should be designed and operated to support compliance with Kyoto Protocol commitments related to the estimation of anthropogenic GHG emissions by sources and removals by sinks.

The baseline may include a scenario where future anthropogenic emissions by sources are projected to rise above current levels, due to the specific circumstances of the host Party.

The certification report shall constitute a request for issuance to the Executive Board of CERs equal to the verified amount of reductions of anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases.

The sources to the anthropogenic emission of nitrous oxide are almost completely dominated by the agricultural sector, which accounts for more than 75 of a yearly emission of 11,000 tonnes.

Reaffirming that anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases not controlled by the Montreal Protocol should be reported in a transparent, consistent, comparable, complete and accurate way,

A CDM project activity is additional if anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases by sources are reduced below those that would have occurred in the absence of the registered CDM project activity.

The project boundary shall encompass all anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases under the control of the project participants that are significant and reasonably attributable to the CDM project activity.

A CDM project activity is additional if anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases by sources are reduced below those that would have occurred in the absence of the registered CDM project activity.

B. Inventories of anthropogenic emissions and removals in 1990

The baseline for a CDM project activity is the scenario that reasonably represents the anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity.

Leakage is defined as the net change of anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases which occurs outside the project boundary, and which is measurable and attributable to the CDM project activity.

Certification is the written assurance by the designated operational entity that, during a specified time period, a project activity achieved the reductions in anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases as verified.

The baseline for a CDM project activity is the scenario that reasonably represents the anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity.

Leakage is defined as the net change of anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases which occurs outside the project boundary, and which is measurable and attributable to the CDM project activity.

Type (iii) project activities other project activities that both reduce anthropogenic emissions by sources and directly emit less than 15 kilotonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent annually (decision 17 CP.7, paragraph 6 (c) (iii))

Generally, however, water quality has undergone severe deterioration through anthropogenic interventions.

Inventories of anthropogenic emissions and binding in reservoirs and by sinks

The guidelines for national systems for the estimation of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions by sources and removals by sinks under Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Kyoto Protocol are referred to herein as guidelines for national systems .

Once land is accounted for under Article 3, paragraphs 3 and 4, all anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions by sources from and removals by sinks on this land must be accounted for throughout subsequent and contiguous commitment periods.

It is difficult to determine what is naturally present and what is anthropogenic.

Energy production and consumption generated 98 of Canada s anthropogenic CO2 emissions in 1990.

The guidelines for national systems for the estimation of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks under Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Kyoto Protocol are referred to as guidelines for national systems in the present annex.

Acknowledging the importance of updating national inventories of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of all greenhouse gases not controlled by the Montreal Protocol and the importance of measures to facilitate adequate adaptation to climate change,

Objectives The objectives of national systems under Article 5, paragraph 1, for the estimation of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of all greenhouse gases not controlled by the Montreal Protocol, referred to below as national systems, are

A baseline shall be deemed to reasonably represent the anthropogenic emissions by sources that would occur in the absence of the proposed project activity if it is derived using a baseline methodology referred to in paragraphs 37 and 38 above.

Verification is the periodic independent review and ex post determination by the designated operational entity of the monitored reductions in anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases that have occurred as a result of a registered CDM project activity during the verification period.

The project boundary shall encompass significant anthropogenic emissions by sources of greenhouse gases under the control of the project participants that are reasonably attributable to the small scale CDM project activity, in accordance with provisions of appendix B for the relevant project category.
