A list of the principal measures intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the projected average annual level of reduction for each measure in the period 2008-2012 is set out in tables 2.1 and 2.2 of the National Climate Change Strategy 2007-2012. Annex 1 of the Strategy indicates that the combined effect of these measures is projected to result in net emissions of 66.216 million tonnes on average in the period 2008-2012. A copy of the Strategy is available in the Oireachtas library.
