An Overview of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Verification Issues

This Pew Center report describes leading companies' efforts to verify greenhouse gas emissions and emissions reductions. Authored by a team from Arthur D. Little, the report begins with an overview of the approaches to verification and then addresses the general factors that drive verification, as illustrated by the case studies of individual firms. The report wraps up with a series of recommendations for companies and other organizations that are weighing the best approaches to verification.

This report builds on the 2000 Pew Center report, "An Overview of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory Issues." Both reports are part of the Pew Center's “Solutions” series, which aims to provide individuals and organizations with tools to evaluate and reduce their contributions to climate change.
