Download or read book Greenhouse Gas Emission Trends and Projections in Europe 2005 written by European Environment Agency and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report assesses whether EU member states and EEA countries are on track to achieve the objectives of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and the targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions under the Kyoto Protocol, based mainly on analysis of domestic policies and measures. The data cover both actual progress during the years 1990 to 2003 and projected progress to the year 2010. The latest projections for 2010 show that existing domestic policies and measures by the EU-15 member states will not be sufficient to reach its Kyoto targets. However, this could be achieved with additional policies and measures currently being planned and the use of credits from emissions-saving projects in third countries through the Kyoto Protocol's "flexible mechanisms". All ten new EU Member States are on track to achieve their individual Kyoto targets.

Download or read book False Alarm written by Bjorn Lomborg and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “essential” (Times UK) and “meticulously researched” (Forbes) book by “the skeptical environmentalist” argues that panic over climate change is causing more harm than good Hurricanes batter our coasts. Wildfires rage across the American West. Glaciers collapse in the Artic. Politicians, activists, and the media espouse a common message: climate change is destroying the planet, and we must take drastic action immediately to stop it. Children panic about their future, and adults wonder if it is even ethical to bring new life into the world. Enough, argues bestselling author Bjorn Lomborg. Climate change is real, but it's not the apocalyptic threat that we've been told it is. Projections of Earth's imminent demise are based on bad science and even worse economics. In panic, world leaders have committed to wildly expensive but largely ineffective policies that hamper growth and crowd out more pressing investments in human capital, from immunization to education. False Alarm will convince you that everything you think about climate change is wrong -- and points the way toward making the world a vastly better, if slightly warmer, place for us all.
