Emissions
＜Mid-term Strategy＞
＜Long-term Strategy＞
“Post-Kyoto Framework”
“Innovation”
・develop innovative technologies
・shift to a low-carbon society
・bring global emissions to peak
within the next 10 to 20 years
Cut
global emissions
by half by 2050
“International Environment
Cooperation”
-accelerate improvement of
global energy efficiency
-new financial mechanism
