Governments still set on 3°C warming track, some progress, but many playing with numbers
The Climate Action Tracker has updated our analysis on national greenhouse gas emission reduction proposals for 2020 under the international climate negotiations. We find that governments are taking action to implement their reduction proposals, but many are set to fail in reaching those proposals. Recent highlights include the agreed link between the EU and Australia’s emission trading systems and the adoption of a new US car standard. http://climateactiontracker.org/assets/publications/briefing_papers/2012-09-04_Briefing_paper_Bangkok.pff.pdf
