{longname} Q411. How is the GHG Reporting Program data different from the U.S. GHG Inventory? {longname} |
A411.
...
The
...
Inventory
...
of
...
U.S.
...
Greenhouse
...
Gas
...
Emissions
...
and
...
Sinks
...
(Inventory)
...
is
...
a
...
national
...
assessment
...
of
...
total
...
GHG
...
emissions
...
from
...
man-made
...
sources
...
in
...
the
...
U.S.
...
This
...
annual
...
report
...
fulfills
...
U.S.
...
Government
...
commitments
...
to
...
the
...
United
...
Nations
...
Framework
...
Convention
...
on
...
Climate
...
Change
...
(UNFCCC).
...
To
...
develop
...
the
...
Inventory,
...
EPA
...
uses
...
national
...
energy
...
data
...
and
...
other
...
national
...
statistics.
...
In
...
many
...
cases,
...
the
...
emissions
...
data
...
in
...
the
...
Inventory
...
cannot
...
be
...
broken
...
down
...
by
...
location
...
or
...
facility.
...
In
...
contrast,
...
the
...
GHG
...
Reporting
...
Program
...
collects
...
data
...
on
...
individual
...
facilities
...
above
...
certain
...
GHG
...
thresholds.

U.S.
