After ratifying the Kyoto Protocol, Egypt could gain $20 million annually by trading its low emission certificates with countries like India whose emissions exceed the average. It can also benefit from international cooperation in the adoption of clean energy production methods, to reduce emissions further, and the sharing of clean technology expertise, know-how and capabilities
