Fig. 2: Possible country emission reduction targets by 2030 (relative to 2005) reflecting an EU-27 overall 55% reduction target (relative to 1990) for an application of each single principle (and under different interpretations of them).

Fig. 2

The dashed line indicates the target reduction put forward in the ‘Fit for 55%’ proposal. The x-axis is divided into 3 categories, the first (C) contains the results of capability interpretations, (E) equality interpretations, and (R) responsibility. A consists of countries with allocation shares predominately above (i.e. less restrictive) than the 2021 proposal. B consists of countries with some scenarios leading to more stringent reductions, and others less, than compared to the 2021 EU proposal, and C countries with the majority of scenarios leading to more strict reductions.
