As a  result methane, nitrous oxide, HFCs, PFCs and SF\u003csub\u003e6\u003c\/sub\u003e now provide  attractive options for detailing the national targets for the  reduction of greenhouse gas emissions meant to control climate change.  This book is the second volume in this area and addresses three main  topics. \u003cbr\u003e  Firstly, it documents progress with respect to our knowledge of the  sources and sinks of NCGGs. Information on this subject is essential  in order to reduce the uncertainties in national emissions inventories  which serve as the reference values for commitments of countries in  the framework of the Kyoto Protocol. Secondly, this volume deals with  the control options for the NCGGs and contains a wealth of information  in this area. Emerging technologies here provide business  opportunities, in particular in connection with the flexible  mechanisms for mitigation projects in developing countries which have  been agreed in Kyoto. Thirdly, the book treats the policy  implementation of mitigation options for greenhouse gas emissions.  Tools for control policies, both on the national and international  level, and for different sectors of industry are discussed. National  integrated approaches, including the ones from the United States  Environmental Protection Agency and the Netherlands Ministry of  Environment which both sponsored the conference, provide guidance for  defining the most effective greenhouse gases mitigation plans in  different situations. \u003cbr\u003e  This volume is being published in support of the IPCC Process and will  serve as a reference for IPCC's Third Assessment Report.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-03-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792361992\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-9343-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 604\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265722372236,"sku":"9780792361992","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792361992.jpg?v=1770789209","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792361992","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
