Abstract :The increase in temperature compared to the pre-Industrial Revolution levels, the melting of glaciers, the endangering of living species, and climate change have started to spur the parties into action, and efforts have been made to prevent global warming through agreements and protocols. In this study, the global situation of the gases causing greenhouse gas emissions in 2023 of the international community OECD was examined and the similarities and dissimilarities of the member countries were visually revealed using multidimensional scaling analysis, one of the multivariate statistical methods, based on the variables of Carbon dioxide, Methane, Nitrogen dioxide, and HFC134-a. The study, conducted using the Euclidean distance measure, illustrates the similarities and dissimilarities among countries in a three-dimensional space based on the Stress value. The study demonstrates that France, Türkiye, Canada, and Colombia are similar regarding greenhouse gas emissions. On the other hand, Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Germany, France, Poland, Japan, South Korea, and Israel differ from other OECD countries. The United States exhibits considerable dissimilarity with other OECD countries. Moreover, other OECD countries share similar characteristics. In this way, the multidimensional scaling method will contribute to the comparison of similarities among countries and, in this context, to the development of policy recommendations.Keywords : Çok boyutlu ölçekleme, Sera gazı emisyonları, OECD
