RUSSIA VERY, VERY SERIOUS ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING; OFFERS 30% CO2 EMISSIONS INCREASE

“Based on the current situation by 2020 we could cut emissions by about 10-15 percent,” Medvedev told Russian state television, according to a copy of his comments supplied by the Kremlin.Arkady Dvorkovich, the Kremlin’s chief economic adviser, later clarified to Interfax news agency that the reduction would be from 1990 levels, before the Soviet Union fell and Russia’s heavy industry collapsed.
Since then, its carbon emissions have returned to an upward curve along with its industrial revival, preserving Russia’s place as the world’s third largest polluter behind China and the United States.
The target laid out on Friday meant cumulative cuts of 30 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases from 1990 to 2020, Medvedev said.
This implies Russia will emit about 3 billion tonnes of greenhouse gas in 2020 compared with 2.2 billion tonnes in 2007.
“We will not cut off our development potential,” Medvedev said.
