This paper presents a greenhouse-gas (GHG) emission reduction toolkit at an urban scale as a response to climate change local effects. Studies show that the most considerable amount of GHG emitted from cities worldwide; as the result of fossil fuel combustion, energy consumption, and other human functions. However, not the equivalent CO2 absorbers are embedded in cities, nor the mitigation strategies. Urban areas are where the GHG emission causes and the solutions cross and are the best laboratories to examine the new initiatives. This toolkit was developed to reflect this significant necessity of the urban environment to gather, present, and weigh the possible approaches toward a lower-carbon city. The four main contributors to GHG emission, including Energy Management, Transportation, Waste Management, and Urban Land Use, were identified, and their associated mitigation techniques were proposed. They were also weighted based on their abatement potentials, and the recommended implementation policies were linked to them. The techniques were chosen over a comprehensive literature review from the available databases from 2000 to 2020. In the end, the critical challenges in the implementation phases, and some strategic suggestions were proposed to facilitate the process.

本文介绍了一种城市规模的温室气体 (GHG) 减排工具包，以应对气候变化的局部影响。研究表明，全球城市排放的温室气体数量最多；作为化石燃料燃烧、能源消耗和其他人类功能的结果。然而，城市中并没有嵌入等效的二氧化碳吸收器，也没有缓解策略。城市地区是温室气体排放的原因和解决方案交叉的地方，是检查新举措的最佳实验室。开发此工具包是为了反映城市环境在收集、呈现和权衡实现低碳城市的可能方法方面的重要必要性。确定了温室气体排放的四个主要贡献者，包括能源管理、交通、废物管理和城市土地利用，并提出了它们相关的缓解技术。它们还根据其减排潜力进行加权，并且建议的实施政策与它们相关联。这些技术是通过对 2000 年至 2020 年可用数据库的全面文献回顾而选择的。最后，提出了实施阶段的关键挑战，并提出了一些战略建议以促进这一过程。
