The Environmental cluster of Samuel Neaman Institute managed the voluntary reporting and registering system for greenhouse gas emissions with the Ministry of Environmental Protection. The reporting system, which has been in operation since 2010, is voluntary but subject to criteria and methods developed by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Samuel Neaman Institute, in collaboration with a working team that included representatives from all the sectors of the economy and various governmental bodies.

A special Excel file, which is developed by the Samuel Neaman Institute is used as a tool for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions and documenting the emission inventories of the reporting bodies. Instructional videos for filling out the reporting forms can be found on the website of the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
