Abstract
The need to counteract climate change remains relevant in the world, and in Russia the active development of climate policy continues. Data on emissions and removals of greenhouse gases (hereinafter referred to as GHGs) are of key importance: they are the basis for climate goals and reporting of countries and companies, they are the basis for the implementation of climate projects, and carbon markets are built on them. However, the quality of data on emissions and removals at the current stage is far from perfect. According to the IEA, the uncertainty in estimating global emissions of carbon dioxide is 10%, methane - 25%, nitrous oxide - 30%, fluorine-containing gases - 20%. Considerable difficulties are also caused by the assessment of the absorption capacity of forests and other ecosystems (pastures, swamps, water bodies, etc.), which Russia focuses on in its climate policy.
