A. IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories
The IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories are internationally agreed methodological standards that countries use to estimate and report their greenhouse gas emissions and removals for climate change reporting.
B. Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories
The Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories is an expert body that develops internationally accepted methodologies and guidelines for countries to estimate and report their greenhouse gas emissions and removals.
C. Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks
The Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks is an official annual report that quantifies and analyzes the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions and removals across economic sectors to track progress and inform climate policy.
D. IPCC Principles and Procedures
The IPCC Principles and Procedures are the formal rules and guidelines that govern how the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change conducts its assessments, reviews, and decision-making processes.
E. Working Group I contribution to the Second Assessment Report
The Working Group I contribution to the Second Assessment Report is the section of the IPCC’s 1995 climate assessment that focuses on the physical science basis of climate change, including observations, theory, and projections of the climate system.
F. None of above. chosen
G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
