Column 2-
Countries are beginning to show their negotiating hand for the Kyoto
Conference. Column 2 shows what they are proposing for the Kyoto protocol
as regards reducing 1990 levels of CO2 emissions. Countries proposing
reductions by 2005 scored green. Nations aiming for a significant reduction
from 1990 levels only by the year 2010 scored yellow, while those that have
not yet presented any clear proposals for reductions have scored red.
So far, only Austria, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands have scored
green. WWF will be making every effort to ensure that nations currently
scoring yellow or red become green, and we will regularly publish the results
of our efforts as we continue on the road to Kyoto throughout 1997.
