Large emitters have begun conducting greenhouse gas inventories.

Following Vietnam’s commitment to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, many localities and domestic enterprises have proactively included emission reduction targets in their socio -economic development plans. Large emitters have now begun to conduct greenhouse gas inventories in accordance with State regulations.

According to the Department of Climate Change ( Ministry of Agriculture and Environment ), the carbon neutral policy system has been issued quite fully, creating a foundation for implementing climate commitments. Vietnam is moving towards a low-carbon economic model, applying pricing tools such as carbon tax and credits, and preparing to operate a pilot carbon market in the period 2025-2028.

Meanwhile, the Institute of Agricultural Environment said that agriculture accounts for a significant proportion of the country's total emissions. Measures such as alternating wet and dry irrigation, using organic fertilizers, and utilizing straw can help reduce methane emissions by 30-55%.

By 2029, Vietnam plans to officially operate a domestic carbon trading floor, opening a new phase in emissions management and green economic development.

On the local side, Mr. Nguyen Danh Hung, Deputy Director of the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Nghe An province, said that Nghe An has an advantage when it is in the group of 3 provinces with the largest forest area in the country, along with Lam Dong and Gia Lai. In the period of 2023-2025, the province was selected to participate in the North Central Region Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Payment Agreement (ERPA) program.

Through classification, about 790,000 hectares of forest and more than 38,400 forest owners are participating in the program, bringing dual benefits of environmental protection and reducing livelihood pressure for highland people.
