2 A 4 2 4 2 Change the word "emission" to "missions"
(Government of MALAWI)
IPCC WGIII Fourth Assessment Report, Second Order Draft
2 A 4 2 4 2 It is suggested to insert "global" before "CO2 emission" in order to
add clarity (figure SPM.3 addresses regional emissions).
(Government of Austria)
2 A 4 2 4 0 "Assuming current policies remain unchanged" sounds presumptive
and could direct policy-making decisions (i.e. assuming policies
remain unchanged, the reader could be persuaded to leave current
policies as-is, creating a business-as-usual scenario). Replacing this
statement with, "With current policies remaining unchanged..." or
"In the even that current policies remain unchanged..." is suggested.
(Government of Japan)
2 A 4 2 4 5 “Assuming current policies …”. Replace “substantially higher
(high confidence)” with the ratio by which these values will be
higher (like two thirds or one-third).
(Government of India)
SPM-45 2 B 4 2 4 2 … unchanged, GLOBAL CO2 emissionS (Please add "global", and
add "s" at the end of "emission".

2 A 4 3 0 0 It would be preferable to express these projected emission increases
relative to 1990 levels, as in the Convention and Protocol, rather
than relative to 2000.
(Harald Winkler, University of Cape Town)
2 A 4 4 4 5 Suggest change for clarity. End first sentence after countries and
put a second sentence. Per capita emissions in developed countries
will remain higher than in developing countries
(Ann Gardiner, AEA Technology)
