Abstract

Climate change will be one of the biggest challenges facing nations, governments, businesses and citizens in the coming decades. This change affects human and natural systems and can lead to significant changes in resource use, production and economic activities.
In response, international, regional, national, and local measures have been taken to limit greenhouse gas emissions into the Earth's atmosphere.
Emissions of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide from fossil fuels for energy production, cause climate change. Therefore, measuring the amount and emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) is one of the priorities to prevent these changes.
The International Standard ISO (ISO) introduces standard methods for measuring greenhouse gases and, using these methods, standardizes measurement values, data collection, sources and wells. And finally access to reliable scientific results, which can be presented and compared internationally.
