Recital 1
(1) The ultimate objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was approved on behalf of the European Community by Council Decision 94/69/EC of 15 December 19931 concerning the conclusion of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), is to stabilise greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the earth's climate system.

Recital 7
(7) Member State reduction efforts should be based on the principle of solidarity between Member States and the need for sustainable economic growth across the Community, taking into account the relative per capita GDP of Member States. Member States that currently have a relatively low per capita GDP and thus high GDP growth expectations should be allowed to increase their greenhouse emissions compared to 2005, but should limit this greenhouse emissions growth to contribute to the overall reduction commitment of the Communityso as to be able to bring their per capita GDP up to the level of other Community Member States. These states may limit this greenhouse emissions growth to a degree that will enable them to achieve this objective. Member States that currently have a relatively high per capita GDP should reduce their greenhouse emissions compared to 2005.

Article 2 – paragraph 2
Article 2 – paragraph 2
In addition, ' greenhouse gas emissions’ means the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and, sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) from sourcesand above all water vapour (H2O), expressed in terms of carbon dioxide equivalent, from different anthropic sources, as determined pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC.

Article 3 – paragraph 2 – subparagraph 2

Amendment 173 #
Proposal for a decision
Article 6 – paragraph 1 a (new)
Article 6 – paragraph 1 a (new)
Especially where their energy sector relies on coal and their low level of development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) means that they are as yet unable to offset emissions, the Community Member States with the lowest par capital GDP have no real opportunity to reduce carbon dioxide emissions without seriously hampering their development, which should contribute to harmonising par capita GDP levels throughout the Community. In the name of solidarity with these countries, which is affirmed in recital 7 of this document, the Community should take account of their situation during negotiations on international agreements and should, with regard to these states, maintain unchanged the values set for emission reductions, as set out in the annex.
