Summary:
In the framework of Lebanon’s Third National Communication (TNC) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions resulting from the industrial sector in Lebanon were estimated for the years 2006 to 2011.Calculations were made using the Revised 1996 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC, 1997) and the 2000 Good Practice Guidance and Uncertainty Management in National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC,2000). The tier 1 approach of the IPCC guidelines was used in the calculations of the GHG of all the reporting categories, except for the cement production, where the GHG were calculated using
the tier 2 approach.
