The European public has fortunately been paying greater attention to climate change, which has helped to improve research conditions. This will enable us in future to adopt better technical and technological solutions, which provide guarantees both for human progress and for the sustainability of this development.
According to experts in the field, this proposal for a regulation is crucial to the first phase of the European Climate Change Programme (ECCP) and is intended to establish a legislative framework for reducing hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), perfluorocarbons (PFC) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), which are powerful greenhouse gases covered by the Kyoto Protocol.
Fluorinated gases currently account for 2% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Nevertheless, their potential for global warming is considerable, because many of them have a long atmospheric lifetime (up to fifteen years). The proposal must make it possible, in line with the forecasts, to reduce fluorinated gas emissions by 2010 and then effect even larger reductions.
Various studies are being conducted in this field and must, of course, receive appropriate support from the European Union, in particular financial support, in order to fulfil the obligations established at the Johannesburg Summit in 2002: political coherence, sustainable management of natural resources and promoting methods of consumption ...
