en EUROPA European Commission Environment Policies ... Resources Climate Change The European Union is at the forefront of international efforts to combat climate change, one of the greatest environmental and economic threats facing the planet and a top policy priority for Environment Commissioner Margot Wallström. The Earth’s average surface temperature rose by around 0.6°C during the 20th century and evidence is getting stronger that most of the global warming over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, which cause emissions of carbon dioxide (CO ) and other 'greenhouse' gases. The EU wants all industrialised countries to take urgent action to reduce or limit their future greenhouse gas emissions in view of the consensus projection by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that global average surface temperatures will rise by 1.4-5.8°C by the end of this century if ‘business as usual’ continues. This temperature increase could trigger serious consequences for humanity and other life forms alike, including a rise in sea levels of an estimated 9-88 cm over the period that could flood coastal areas and small islands, and greater frequency and severity of extreme weather events. The latest monitoring data indicate that the European Union has delivered on its long-standing commitment to stabilise emissions of carbon dioxide (CO

Final report on Forest-Related Sinks Introduction The European Commission has taken many climate-related initiatives since 1991, when it issued the first Community strategy to limit carbon dioxide (CO ) emissions and improve energy efficiency. These include: a directive to promote electricity from renewable energy voluntary commitments by car makers to reduce CO emissions by 25% and proposals on the taxation of energy products However, it is clear that action by both member states and the European Community needs to be reinforced if the EU is to succeed in cutting its greenhouse gas emissions to 8% below 1990 levels by 2008-2012, as required by the Kyoto protocol. The EU Council of Environment Ministers acknowledged the importance of taking further steps at Community level by asking the Commission to put forward a list of priority actions and policy measures.

40. The Green Lane: Climate Change - Home climate change is one of the most significant environmental challenges the world has ever faced. We are already seeing the effects of climate change in Canada. http://www.ec.gc.ca/climate/home-e.html

What is the Kyoto Protocol? Climate change is one of the most significant environmental challenges the world has ever faced. We are already seeing the effects of climate change in Canada. The potential impacts on our health, economy and environment require us to take action. With the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol, the Government of Canada has made climate change a national priority, and is working closely with Canadians and the global community to meet this challenge. Within the federal government, climate change is co-managed by the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Natural Resources. Other key players in this nationwide effort include several federal government departments, the provincial/territorial Ministers of Energy and Environment, municipalities, as well as scientists, industry, the business community and individual Canadians. The Budget 2003 investment of $2 billion over five years brings the Government of Canada's total investment in climate change action since Budget 2000 to $3.7 billion. This is in addition to a number of other measures that are designed to complement our actions on climate change. The achievement of our climate change objectives will become part of the way the Government of Canada does business. Our investments in infrastructure, in technology, in science, and in regional development will all be considered in terms of their impact on reaching our climate change targets.
