monitors progress of all the countries involved. The program evaluates all emissions of GHG from each country to find where monitoring of the gases is most necessary. Precise records of emission trading are recorded to ensure the target goal is within reach. To ensure the rules of the protocol are followed‚ the UN Climate Change Secretariat keeps an international transaction log. This log requires all emitters of GHG to seek approval of the protocol to proceed with the transaction. Regular intervals

Background: With a population steadily growing at about 0.9% per year‚ California has the challenge of meeting energy demands while bringing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions down (PPIC 2013). California emits 359 metric tons of energy related carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere annually and is the second largest polluter behind Texas (EPA 2013). High GHG emissions change the climate‚ which is identified by rising water and air temperatures along with precipitation changes‚ sea level rise‚ and other
