The rule dictated
specific emission targets for states based on power - plant emissions and gave officials broad latitude to decide how to achieve reductions.
Reports over China's reluctance to agree
on specific emissions targets or worries over enforcement in developing countries may be vital, but how does it affect «me» in the UK?
That, to my mind, is probably the more important purpose of something like Kyoto (imperfect though it may be), rather than the
achieving specific emissions targets in the 2008 - 2112 time period.
As I write, there is a report, really an unconfirmed leak, that the draft report has dropped any reference to
specific emissions targets.
It has not, however, announced
any specific emissions targets.
