English Abstract This report presents an overview of the major findings
of the joint CICERO-ECN project on the issue of differentiation of
greenhouse gas emission mitigation targets among countries after the
so-called first budget period of the Kyoto Protocol (2008-2012). More
particularly, the report provides (i) an analysis of the main principles of
fairness relevant to the issue of differentiating emission mitigation
targets among countries, (ii) a brief evaluation of several burden sharing
proposals launched since the mid-1990s, (iii) a new, multi-sector
convergence framework in support of future negotiations to reach agreement
on national greenhouse gas emission mitigation targets (iv) an indication of
its cost implications, and (v) some concluding remarks and suggestions for
further research.
