Notes for Editors The WMO Global Atmosphere Watch Programme () coordinates systematic observations and analysis of greenhouse gases and other trace species. Fifty one countries contributed data for the Greenhouse Gas Bulletin. Measurement data are reported by participating countries and archived and distributed by the World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases (WDCGG) at the Japan Meteorological Agency. () WMO has produced three new animations to support the launch of the WMO Greenhouse Gas Bulletin 2015 and to promote a new concept for monitoring greenhouse gas emissions, sources and sinks. The animation on carbon provides basic background about rising “The cycle” atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases. national and the “Measuring emissions” “Monitoring atmosphere to reduce urban greenhouse gas describe how high-resolution monitoring emissions” of the atmosphere can now be used to more accurately measure GHG emissions in order to support decision-making. The animations are available in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish, They are available at The World Meteorological Organization is the on United Nations System’s authoritative voice Weather, Climate and Water public.wmo.int For further information contact: Clare Nullis .
