A system and method for estimating greenhouse gas emissions in an environment housing an animal population

A method for estimating greenhouse gas emission in an environment housing an animal population, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by a processing circuitry, at least a subset of two or more records, each of the records (i) being associated with a respective member of members of the animal population, and (ii) including one or more monitored parameters of the respective member as monitored over time by at least one of a group of one or more monitoring devices configured to monitor parameters of the members of the animal population, wherein the subset is associated with a first group of given members of the members;
• determining, by the processing circuitry, one or more greenhouse gas emission affecting parameters based on the subset, wherein at least one greenhouse gas emission affecting parameter of the greenhouse gas emission affecting parameters is determined based on one or more of the monitored parameters that are monitored for at least two members of the first group of given members;
• estimating, by the processing circuitry, an amount of greenhouse gas emission in the environment utilizing the greenhouse gas emission affecting parameters;
• and
• performing, by the processing circuitry, an action utilizing the estimated amount of greenhouse gas emission in the environment.
