📋 Tender Overview
The most relevant aspects considered in the process of elaborating the National Emissions and Greenhouse Gases (GHG) inventory and removals are explained in one. The material is used in support of the discussions of the National Inventory Working Group under the Interministerial Committee on Climate Change (CIM) and is available in the National Emissions Registration System (Siren).
The material was developed by the technical team of the International Technical Cooperation Project, executed by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), supported by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and Resources from the Global Environment Fund (GEF). The data is based on, which accompanies Brazils first Biennial Report to the Climate Convention, and the Guidelines of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for national inventories. The elaboration of a directed material promotes alignment between the members of the technical groups, subsidizing decision making with clear and structured information, especially considering the climate plan preparation scenario, explains the projects technical coordinator, Renata Grisoli, about the different work groups under the CIM.
The national inventory presents the estimates of organized GHE emissions in five sectors (land use, change in land use and forests - LULUCF; Agriculture; Energy; Industrial processes and use of products - IPPU; and waste). It is an instrument with relevant role in the climate agenda as it has a robust database used to monitor the goals of the nationally determined contribution (NDC) and guide the efforts of public policies of gee mitigation and adaptation to climate change, among other contributions. The National Emissions Profile, subdivided into greenhouse categories, categories and gases, produces knowledge to the actors about the impacts of anthropic activities that cause climate change, explains Regis Rathmann Inventory Supervisor. The booklet presents, using a language accessible to different actors, the broad set of metrics, methodologies and data used in the elaboration of the national inventory, adds about the clarifications contained in the booklet. With 36 pages, the booklet addresses the methodology used, methodological levels applied to each sector (tiers), quality control and guarantee processes, how results are done and how the complete elaboration cycle works.
The main greenhouse gases and their potential heat capabilities in the atmosphere are detailed. The material also explains the progress and advances incorporated in the latest years so that the inventory would better reflect the national reality, what are the main activity data used for each sector and the providing institutions of this information, as well as the issuance factors applied, among other aspects. Among the clarifications are also activities that are not monitored or measured through national inventory and brief analyzes on aspects of sectors and categories considered key to the country, such as enteric fermentation and road transport. According to the supervisor, the material allows intertwined professionals in the theme to be able to familiarize themselves faster with the main concepts and relational information.
The appropriation of information arising from inventory generates a multiplier effect from the identification of the most effective categories aimed at reducing emissions, thus enhancing the low carbon transition and sustainable development, he concludes. Science & Climate - The Science & Climate International Technical Cooperation Project is executed by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), with support from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and Global Fund for the Environment (GEF). It is responsible for preparing national communications, biennial update reports and Brazils transparency biennial reports to the Climate Convention. The project works to strengthen national capabilities in the implementation of the climate convention and promote awareness of the impacts of climate change in Brazil. Access the booklet.
