EU throws 10% of floating reduction chips

Will be announced at the end of the Copenhagen Conference on whether to implement the highest emission targets "it would be quite an accident if President Obama flew over the Atlantic to Copenhagen, only to repeat the emission reduction targets announced by the United States."　　"This is the Swedish Environment Minister, Andreas Karglen, who was negotiating on behalf of the European Union at the Copenhagen climate conference, speaking on the first day of the meeting (December 7). In the conference host Danish Prime Minister Rahl ·　　After L. Rasmussen's high-profile claim that "an agreement is entirely possible", Carlgren's comments immediately revealed the tense situation at the negotiating table over the next two weeks.　　Carlgren also said the EU is ready to raise its emissions target from 20% to 30%, but this will require further efforts from the other parties involved. Mrs Merkel's "cheer" on the EU's use of 10% of the scale of the floating emission reduction to other participating countries to pressure the move, Carlgren said it was "necessary" to maintain the pressure until the end of the Copenhagen Conference, because "if the EU were to commit to the highest emission reduction targets in advance, the pressure on other countries to make new concessions would be much weaker." , the effectiveness of the agreements that the Conference may eventually reach will be diminished accordingly.　　Carlgren stressed that the EU hopes to push the Copenhagen climate conference into a milestone in the global response to climate change. The EU has agreed to cut emissions by 20% by 2020 at 1990 levels, and if other countries can offer "comparable" commitments, the EU will raise emissions targets to 30%.　　But the EU does not yet say how other countries ' commitments are "comparable".　　The Financial Times pointed out that the EU should focus on the United Nations-backed scientific recommendations for global warming, that is, to reduce emissions to ensure that global temperatures in the middle of this century than the pre-industrial level of the increase of less than 2 degrees Celsius. Merkel, Germany's prime minister, scheduled to attend the Copenhagen climate Conference on 17th, also focused on the global temperature increase of 2 degrees Celsius.　　In an interview with the German media, she said that the presence of leaders, including Mr. Obama, showed that the world was aware of the importance of tackling climate change, "which makes me optimistic about the prospects for Copenhagen", but there is a need for further commitment in order to achieve the goal of preventing temperatures rising above 2 degrees Celsius.　　"Quarrel" is actually the interests of Western European enterprises outside the venue for the European Union position to cheer is not Mrs Merkel alone, German Foreign Minister Westerwelle 7th that Germany wants the EU to be a pioneer in global emissions reduction and is willing to contribute to the EU's demonstrates large-scale emissions reduction, "but do not want to let other countries not to assume their due responsibility." Westerwelle's statement of commitment reflects a big "private concern" in the EU's emissions reduction, which means that if the EU independently implements the highest emission reduction targets in other countries without further emission reductions, European-related industry companiesThe competitiveness of the global market will be relatively weakened. Shebman, chief executive of the Dutch Royal DSM Group, said that if other countries did not raise their emissions targets, European companies could not stand on the same footing as global rivals, even if the EU only implemented a 20% per cent minimum emission reduction commitment. He said the task of reducing emissions by countries at the Copenhagen climate conference was "unbalanced" and "European companies are willing to take part in emissions cuts but do not want to pay the price of weakening competitiveness".　　He therefore judged that there was no possibility that the EU would eventually implement the highest emission reduction targets, because "this is impossible". On the other hand, the EU and other participating countries to open up a "quarrel", because the maintenance of more Western European enterprises, which makes it possible to implement the 30% target of emissions reduction is the collective opposition of the CEE countries. Poland is the leader of some coal-dependent EU member countries in central and Eastern Europe, said Mikolai Dorf Dowgielewicz, EU affairs minister. "The conditions for raising the target are non-existent at the moment."　　He said that the decision to implement the highest goals could not be made until the final proposals were made for technical review and the impact assessment of European industry would not be completed until next March.　　The EU has the strongest demand for further cuts in the US as a result of the buck of the European Union as a developed economy, as well as the unilateral dismantling of the Kyoto Protocol by the former US government. Earlier on November 25, the United States federal Government announced that the country will be at the Copenhagen climate conference promised 2020 greenhouse gas emissions in 2005 to reduce the basis of 17%.　　But the goal, according to EU experts, is only a 3% reduction from 1990, far from the demands of the EU and developing economies. While the US commitment to cut emissions includes milestones such as the 2025 30%, 2030 42% and 2050 83%, these promises have been widely questioned. In this respect, Chen, director of environmental Development Research at the Center for Urban Development and environmental studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the US's current emissions scale made it difficult to cut its target of 83% per cent in 2050 because of the unilateral tearing down of the Kyoto Protocol.　　In addition, the U.S. commitment to cut emissions and the U.S. Clean Energy Security Act of the provisions of the indistinguishable, so even if the United States to make new commitments, there is the possibility of the U.S. Congress will not be approved by the United States. Ironically, even with the widely-questioned medium-and long-term emissions-reduction promises, the US wants to dictate the EU's emissions targets. "The United States has a long-term goal of reducing emissions according to scientific data and wants the EU to launch similar targets," Pershing, the US chief negotiator at Copenhagen, said.
