InBrief: Measurement, reporting and verification and the mining and metals industry

This paper forms part of a series of InBrief publications that begin to scope out the links between the mining and metals industry and the three focus areas in ICMM’s climate change program.

Clarifying measurement, reporting and verification standards internationally builds confidence and ensures that actions are being implemented and countries are making progress towards their committed targets. A consistent and stable global regime is an important long term goal and ICMM’s climate change program is intended to contribute to that end. A consistent approach to measurement, reporting and verification that draws on existing regimes would provide transparency to emissions reporting and accounting.
