Ultimate Objective

To achieve, in accordance with therelevant provisions of the Convention,

stabilization of greenhouse gasconcentrations in the atmosphere at a

level that would prevent dangerousanthropogenic interference with the

climate system. Such a level should beachieved within atime-frame sufficient to

allow ecosystems to adapt naturally toclimate change, to ensure thatfood

production is not threatenedand toenable economic development to

proceed in a sustainable manner.
