據(jù)天然氣加工網(wǎng)站2月7日消息 西歐最大的石油和天然氣生產(chǎn)國挪威宣布，其正在增強減少
碳排放的雄心，并將在今年晚些時候向議會提交一份實施計劃。
根據(jù)2015年達成的《巴黎氣候變化協(xié)定》，各國必須每五年提交一份經(jīng)修訂的減排計劃，即由國家決定的減排貢獻。
挪威上周五表示，其是最早向聯(lián)合國提交強化減排計劃的國家之一，并將在2030年之前將其目標(biāo)從1990年的水平至少削減50%，高于此前承諾的削減40%。
挪威氣候與環(huán)境部在一份聲明中稱：“挪威新的強化目標(biāo)是，到2030年，與1990年相比，減排至少50%，并達到55%。”
根據(jù)最新的數(shù)據(jù)，到目前為止挪威的排放量接近持平。與1990年相比，2018年增長了1%。石油和天然氣占挪威5200萬噸碳排放總量的四分之一以上。
非歐盟成員國挪威表示，希望與另一個非歐盟國家冰島和歐盟合作，實現(xiàn)這一強化目標(biāo)。歐盟已于3月份承諾制定新法律，在2050年前使歐盟氣候保持中性。
目前的規(guī)定允許挪威為歐盟其他地區(qū)的減排買單，以防止其生產(chǎn)超過商定的限額，但挪威正在尋求在國內(nèi)實現(xiàn)大部分減排目標(biāo)。
其已經(jīng)擁有世界上最高的電動汽車使用率，并開始努力掩埋排放物。
其國有石油和天然氣公司Equinor在1月份承諾，在本世紀(jì)將國內(nèi)業(yè)務(wù)的溫室氣體排放量減少40%，到2050年將接近于零。
依賴化石燃料的國家和公司面臨越來越大的壓力，因為投資者越來越不愿意為忽視減緩全球變暖必要性的項目提供資金。
但氣候運動人士擔(dān)心，2015年達成巴黎氣候協(xié)議的勢頭已經(jīng)減弱，因為現(xiàn)在防止氣溫上升所需的措施可能代價高昂，而且會造成破壞。
他們說，下一次11月在格拉斯哥舉行的國際氣候大會將是對聯(lián)合國在12月馬德里談判達成妥協(xié)后的全球做法能否奏效的關(guān)鍵考驗。

Leading European oil, gas producer increases carbon-cutting goal
Norway, western Europe’s largest oil and gas producer announced it was increasing its ambition to cut carbon emissions and would put an implementation plan before parliament later this year.
Under the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, brokered in 2015, nations have to submit revised plans to reduce emissions, known as nationally determined contributions, every five years.
Norway said on Friday it was one of the first countries to submit enhanced reduction plans to the United Nations and would increase its ambition to a cut of at least 50% from 1990 levels by 2030, up from a previous pledge of a 40% cut.
“Norway’s new and strengthened target is to reduce emissions by at least 50%, and towards 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels,” the ministry of climate and environment said in a statement.
So far Norway’s emissions are close to flat, according to the latest available data. In 2018 they were 1% higher versus 1990 levels. Oil and gas contributes more than a quarter of Norway’s total emissions of 52 million tonnes of carbon.
Non-EU member Norway said it wished to fulfil the enhanced target in collaboration with another non-EU nation Iceland and with the European Union, which has promised new laws in March to make the bloc climate neutral by 2050.
Current rules allow Norway to pay for emissions reductions elsewhere in the EU in order to prevent it producing above agreed limits, but it is seeking to achieve most of its emission cuts at home.
Already it has the world’s highest rate of electric car use and has embarked on efforts to bury emissions.
Its state-controlled oil and gas firm Equinor pledged in January to cut greenhouse emissions from its domestic operations by 40% this decade and to near zero by 2050.
Pressure is mounting on countries and companies that rely on fossil fuel as investors are increasingly unwilling to finance projects that ignore the need to slow global warming.
But climate campaigners are concerned that the momentum that brought about the Paris climate deal in 2015 has ebbed away as the steps now needed to prevent temperatures rising are likely to be expensive and disruptive.
They say the next international climate conference in Glasgow in November will be a crucial test of whether the United Nations’ global approach can work after talks in Madrid in December ended in compromise.
