Presentation Transcript

  1. Climate change • The UNFCC • The Protocol of Kyoto • The USA • The European Union • France • Third World • Emissions Trading • Renewable energies and carbon sequestration

  2. Evolution of the emission of carbon dioxide The Greenhouse effect

  3. Signatories to the UNFCCC are split into three groups: • Annex I countries (industrialised countries) • Annex II countries (developed countries which pay for costs of developing countries) • Developing countries.

  4. Conditions of the Kyoto Protocol Condition 1 Condition 2 • 55 parties of the UNFCCC Nb : emissions level of 1990

  5. Asia-Pacific Partnership for Clean Development and Climate (APPCDC )

  6. 25 % of the Americans contribute to the reductions of emissions thanks to actions taken by cities and states. • $4.5 billions spent annually for global climate research projects, including: • $1.7 billion to develop emission-free automotive • $1.3 billion on renewable energies • $400 millions on clean-coal research

  7. 22% of global greenhouse gas emissions • Goal: to cut by 8% from 1990 emission levels

  8. France disposes of many advantages in the domain of the renewable energy : • 78 % of the electricity is produced by nuclear plant • Reduction of his annual emission of 31 millions tons of CO2 • First woods of Europe • Very good wind deposit • Good capacity of solar energy • France is the first producer of renewable energy of the European Union (20 % of the European production)

  9. Adoption of “Plan Climat” in 2004 • Sensitization campaign • Change drivers behaviour and privilege clean transport • Promote buildings more energy efficient and more ecological • Develop renewable energy • Improve the agriculture • Rethink the utilisation of the air-conditioners • Promote research for the future

  10. December 2002, creation by the EU of a system of emissions trading • Introduction of quotas in six key industries: • Energy • Steel • Cement • Glass • Brick making • Paper • Fines for member nations that fail to meet their obligations (€40/ton of carbon)

  11. Wind energy

  12. Hydroelectric energy

  13. Solar energy

  14. Geothermal energy

  15. Nuclear energy

  16. Natural carbon dioxide sink • Vegetation • Ocean • Means to enhance the natural sequestration • Vegetation • Ocean • Soil • Artificial sequestration • Oceans • Geological sequestration
