IV. Glossary

In producing this booklet, the UNFCCC benefited from the suggestions of Secretariat staff and thoughtful comments from several experts on the content that would be most helpful to people wishing to find and understand the methodologies of interest to them. In order to enhance its utility and respond to the needs of stakeholders we will seek to improve it. The Secretariat therefore welcomes comments and suggestions, which can be submitted here.

This booklet will also be updated regularly in order to reflect changes in approved methodologies and tools. The latest version of the booklet is available on the this page.
