-7--7- EcoSecurities Group Ltd. 2002 All Rights Reserved Key issues for discussion Trading in carbon credits will become the largest environmental market driving sustainability and technological change in Annex I countries (countries with a emission cap) and Non-Annex I countries (developing countries) International legal framework as established under the Kyoto Protocol and the EU Emission Trading Scheme are fundamental to create commitment from private sector participants Uncertainty about long term targets and “weak knees” at political level are destroying market confidence in emission trading. Pulling out at the last minute on promises to abate climate change will penalise “early movers” and benefit polluters. NGO action to ensure that Governments stick to their commitments is going to be crucial in order to prevent those “weak knees”.
