Reduction of non-CO₂ gases

Capacity support; regulation; measurement

Capacity-building, regulation, and robust measurement systems enable governments to monitor and reduce non-CO₂ pollutants through national inventories, regulatory frameworks, and technical support for implementation.

How this solutions relates to the action agenda

Axis: Unleashing Enablers and Accelerators including on Financing, Technology and Capacity-Building

Key Objective: Reduction of non-CO₂ gases

Why it matters

Non-CO₂ pollutants account for over 40% of near-term warming. Effective capacity support and regulation empower countries to design inventories, set enforceable standards, and access finance for mitigation. Measurement and monitoring tools improve transparency, build trust, and unlock climate finance. Benefits include immediate health gains from air quality improvements, stronger alignment with global agreements (Paris/Kigali), and accelerated progress toward SDGs.
