Positions of the main non Sample Clauses

Positions of the main non. EU steel countries As outlined before, world steel production concentrates in nine main countries and regions: China, the EU-27, Japan, India, South Korea, Russia, Ukraine, United States and Brazil. From a climate perspective, these can be divided into three main groups: industrialised countries (EU-27, Japan, US), economies in transition (Russia, Ukraine) and emerging economies (other parties). In the UNFCCC context, the industrialised countries and economies in transition are Annex-I countries, the other countries are non-Annex I countries (Table 4.1). Table 4.1 Annex-I and Non Annex-I steel sector countries Annex-I Non Annex-I Industrialised countries Economies in Transition Emerging Markets EU-27 Russian Federation China United States Ukraine India Japan South Korea Brazil In order to better understand the positions of these countries and regions in the climate negotiations, it is important to have a look at their emissions in recent years. Of the industrialised countries, the only party that is on schedule for an emission reduction is the EU (Table 4.2). Having reduced its emissions so far by 1.5%, the reduction target of –8% is, according to the European Environmental Agency, still within reach58. Japan, as a party to the Kyoto protocol obliged to reduce its emissions by 6 %, is most likely to end the Kyoto period with an increase of emissions as its present emissions are 7% higher than in the base year. The United States, which have not signed the Kyoto protocol and therefore are not obliged to reduce their emissions, presently show an increase of greenhouse gas emissions of 16%. Russia and the Ukraine as so-called ‘Economies in Transition’ are also Annex-I countries. Due to their economic decline after the fall of the Soviet Union, their emissions have decreased dramatically (-29% and –55% respectively). It is generally expected that it still will take many years until their emissions have returned to those of the base year. The emerging economies China, India, South Korea on the other hand have seen good economic development in recent years and therefore a large increase in emissions. Economic growth rates in China have even led to a growth in emissions by 137%. 57 See x.x. Xxxxx, N., X. Xxxxxxx, Chr. Xxxxxxxxx, X. Xxxxxx, X.
