Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Sept. 4, 1996
Report No. RCED-96-188
Subject
Summary:

Industry, transportation, and agriculture are all responsible for increasing amounts of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping "greenhouse gases" in the earth's atmosphere. Climate models project a rise in the earth's average surface temperature of between two and six degrees Fahrenheit by 2100. To counter the potentially harmful consequences of climate change, the United States, other developed nations, the former Soviet Union, and other Eastern European states--collectively known as the countries of Annex I to the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change--agreed to return to 1990 levels their emissions of greenhouse gases by the year 2000. This report evaluates (1) the progress of the United States and other Annex I countries toward meeting their goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2000 and (2) major factors that affect their ability to reach that goal.
