How does the Tarah suite support improved climate change reporting?

Almost all countries currently perform basic climate change reporting. Countries with the Tarah system can prepare much more sophisticated reporting to participate in international climate agreements, such as the IPCC and UNFCCC processes. Better reporting than the average can lead to better involvement in these international processes, more say in international policy formation, better national profile, and more access to benefits of these processes. A country that reports well can move into position to participate in international carbon trading markets, participate in national, regional, and international climate investment programmes, and can contribute to the global body of knowledge about understanding climate change. Countries with the right tools can report more accurately, in a more sophisticated way, in a more timely fashion, and can boast a better equipped Department of the Environment. This places the nation in a position to be a stronger participant in the international carbon economy.
