The Government of the Republic of Serbia, at the initiative of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, has approved the First Biennial Transparency Report in accordance with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement. Irena Vujović, the Minister of Environmental Protection and Deputy Prime Minister, emphasized that Serbia is the first country in the region to meet this international requirement.
The Transparency Report on Climate Change serves as a tool for monitoring and reporting on the progress the country is making in fulfilling its obligations under international climate agreements, such as the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement.
It was highlighted that Serbia recently took significant steps in this area by submitting its first National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report to the UN Secretariat, covering the period from 1990 to 2022, thereby fulfilling another international obligation.

The greenhouse gas inventory is a section of the report that provides a detailed overview of emissions contributing to the greenhouse effect, including CO2, methane, and others, from industrial processes, energy production, transportation, agriculture, and other sectors.
Additionally, the past year was significant for Serbia with the introduction of the first greenhouse gas emission permits. This permitting system has established a mechanism for monitoring, reporting, and verifying these gases, providing a solid foundation for planning and implementing emission reduction measures.
