🌍 Global Rankings

Comparison of greenhouse gas emissions for 195+ countries. Türkiye's global position by total emissions, per-capita emissions and emissions per GDP.

♻️ Waste Platform

Solid waste generation, wastewater treatment data, recycling rates and waste-sector emissions analysis.

💧 Water Platform

Türkiye water resources, basin-level water management, sectoral water use and water quality indicators.

🌾 Agriculture Platform

Agricultural production data, land use changes, agricultural emissions and sustainable agriculture analysis.

🚗 Transport Platform

Road, rail, air and maritime transport data. Fleet statistics, transport emissions and sustainable mobility analysis.

🛠️ Climate Tools

Carbon footprint calculators, corporate emissions reporting tools, policy and MRV tools, life-cycle analysis (LCA) tools and energy modelling software.

📚 Documents

Climate change reports, scientific publications, policy documents, UNFCCC reports and open data archives.

Knowledge Hub: Climate Route

Our blog section Climate Route offers in-depth analyses on current climate policies, COP meetings, Türkiye's climate commitments and international climate negotiations.

What We Do

📊 Data Analysis

We compile and analyse climate, energy and environmental data from official sources. Up-to-date data from trusted sources such as TÜİK, the Ministry of Environment, Urbanisation and Climate Change, Eurostat, UNFCCC, IEA and World Bank.

📈 Data Visualisation

We present complex data via interactive charts, maps and visualisations that everyone can understand. Responsive design and mobile compatibility across all platforms.

🔍 Trend Monitoring

We track yearly changes, sectoral distributions, regional differences and international comparisons. Time-series analyses and projection charts.

📰 Information

We publish analyses and articles on climate change, energy transition, sustainability and environmental policies.

📥 Data Download

We offer data from all our platforms in downloadable formats for free. Open data for researchers and analysts.

Why GHG Türkiye?

Starting with the acronym GHG (Greenhouse Gas), our platform has evolved over time into a much more comprehensive climate and environmental data ecosystem. Beyond greenhouse gases, we bring together all of Türkiye's environmental data under one roof.

What are Greenhouse Gases (GHG)?

  • CO₂ (Carbon dioxide) - Most common greenhouse gas, from energy and industry
  • CH₄ (Methane) - From agriculture, waste and energy sectors
  • N₂O (Nitrous oxide) - From agriculture and industry
  • F-gases - Fluorinated gases from refrigeration and industrial processes

Monitoring these gases is critical for Türkiye to achieve its 2053 net-zero target.
