Proposal for a decision
Article 3 – paragraph -1 (new)

-1. The Community shall, by 2020, limit its domestic greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% compared to 1990 levels. Greenhouse gas emissions from sources not covered under Directive 2003/87/EC should undertake one third of the emission reduction effort required to meet this target, using 2005 emissions as the baseline. The corresponding greenhouse gas emission limits and amounts in tonnes of CO2 equivalent per Member State for sources not covered under Directive 2003/87/EC, shall be calculated by the Commission.

Proposal for a decision
Article 4 a (new)

Article 4a Helping developing countries adapt to the negative consequences of climate change 1. Upon the conclusion of an international agreement on climate change, the Community shall, as from the beginning of 2013, commit to binding to provide grant-based financial assistance for developing countries, in particular for communities and countries most at risk from climate change and current climate variability, with the aim of supporting them in their adaptation to the negative consequences of climate change. These investments are in addition to those mentioned under Article 4. 2. The assistance referred to in paragraph 1 shall increase annually in a linear manner and reach EUR 11 billion in 2020. The assistance effort for 2013 is set at EUR 5 billion. This finance must not be counted towards meeting the UN-agreed target of 0,7 per cent for aid. 3. The assistance effort for the Community referred to in paragraph 2 shall be distributed among Member States in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 9(2). The committee shall decide on the distribution of the assistance effort according to the following criteria: (a) the share of Member States' efforts shall be a linear relation to the GDP per capita of this Member State in 2005; (b) Member States which are not required to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions compared to 2005 in Kyoto Protocol parties listed in the United Nations Convention on Climate Change Annex I shall not contribute to the Community investment effort referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2. 4. Member States may use the revenues from auctioning under the implementation of Directive 2003/87/EC as amended for the purpose of meeting the obligations of this Article. 5. Each Member State shall report annually to the Commission and the European Parliament. This report shall contain information on the Member States' compliance with paragraphs 1 to 4. The Commission shall draw up a reporting format to be used by Member States for the reporting under this Article, before the end of 2010. 6. The 2020 assistance budget mentioned in paragraph 2 shall be reviewed by the Commission no later than 2015. This review shall be based on the latest scientific evidence of that time.
