Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC)
The Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) is a voluntary global partnership of over 190 governments, intergovernmental organizations and non-governmental organizations founded in 2012 and convened within the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). CCAC is committed to reducing SLCPs like methane, black carbon, tropospheric ozone and hydrofluorocarbons that drive both climate change and air pollution.
Global Methane Initiative (GMI)
The Global Methane Initiative (GMI) is an international public-private initiative launched in 2004, which advances cost-effective, near term methane abatement, recovery and use of methane as a valuable energy source in 3 sectors: biogas (including agriculture, municipal solid waste and wastewater), coal mines, oil and gas systems

The Galvanizing Organic Bio-Agro Resources Dhan (GOBARdhan) is an umbrella initiative of Government of India based on the whole of Government approach. It covers the entire gamut of schemes/programmes/policies promoting the conversion of organic waste like cattle dung/ agri-residue etc. to biogas/ CBG/ Bio CNG. Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation, Ministry of Jal Shakti is the coordinating department for GOBARdhan..
Greenhouse Gas Platform India (GHGPI)
The GHG Platform India is a collective civil-society initiative which provides an independent estimation and analysis of India’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across key sectors. The platform currently hosts national and sub-national estimates for GHG emissions from 2005 to 2018 by accounting for carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) gases.
India Climate and Energy Dashboard (ICED)
The India Climate and Energy Dashboard (ICED) developed by NITI Aayog in collaboration with Vasudha Foundation, is a comprehensive platform offering near real-time data on India’s energy, climate and related economic sectors.
International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO)
The United Nations Environment Programme's International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) exists to provide open, reliable, and actionable data to the individuals with the agency to reduce methane emissions. As a core implementer of the Global Methane Pledge, IMEO provides the data needed to deploy methane solutions at speed and scale and deliver on the goal of reducing methane emissions 30% by 2030 from 2020 levels.
Methane Alert and Response System (MARS)
IMEO’s Methane Alert Response System (MARS) is the first public global satellite detection and notification system providing actionable data on very large methane emissions around the world. The UNEP launched MARS at COP27 in 2022 to accelerate implementation of the Global Methane Pledge.
