Climate change report 2013
Description
The climate change report compares greenhouse gas emissions in Austria with the Kyoto target for the period 2008-2012. The result: At 82.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent, emissions in 2011 were 6.0 % higher than in 1990. Emissions have fallen by around 2.3 % compared to 2010. Through increased use of flexible instruments such as the Joint Implementation and Clean Development Mechanism (JI/CDM) purchase programme, Austria will fulfil its Kyoto Protocol commitments. For the period 2013-2020, the EU sets binding targets for the reduction of greenhouse gases and the share of renewable energy sources. As scenario analyses of the Federal Environment Agency show, these objectives can only be achieved if additional measures are implemented in Germany, especially in transport and in the area of heating.
