Perfluorocarbons pfcs: industrial process, e. g. production of aluminium; electronics. Sulphur hexafluoride: sf6: industrial process, e. g. magnesium foundries; semiconductor manufacture f: the warming trend a) Governments have three broad policy options to control emissions: command-and-control: regulators mandate technology or pollution levels for each operator and impose fines to ensure compliance, taxation: regulators set a price on emission levels and allow operators. 2 to decide how much they whish to pollute at that price: cap and trade: regulators set a maximum emission level and allow operators to exchange allowances to incentivize those participants able to reduce emission at lowest cost. And remains in forces until december 2012: common but differentiated responsibilities, allows the use of three so-called flexibility mechanisms to help nations. International emission trading achieve emissions reductions at lower cost: Joint implementation (ji: was unprecedented as an international environmental agreement. e) Bali roadmap : the negotiations leading up to ratification; successor to.
