In 2006, the European Union (EU), which consists of 27 members, committed to
reducing its global warming emissions by at least 20 percent of 1990 levels by 2020, to consuming 20 percent of its
energy from renewable sources by 2020, and to
reducing its primary
energy use by 20 percent from projected levels through increased
energy efficiency.1 The EU has also committed to spending $ 375 billion a year to cut greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80 percent by 2050 compared to 1990 levels.2 The EU is meeting these goals through binding national commitments which vary depending on the unique situation of a given country but which average out to the
overall targets.

To me this would appear to be a worst case scenario, based on the least developed economies building up
energy infrastructures largely
using fossil fuels, in order to pull their populations out of poverty, as China and India are doing today (thereby
reducing their rate of population growth as they become more affluent and improving their carbon efficiencies) and the remaining societies continuing to improve their
overall carbon efficiencies as they have already been doing.
