| Summary / Abstract (Note) | EVERY DISCUSSION on how Russian natural gas contributes to the development of the global energy sector inevitably brings up the question of the role of natural gas in our day and age troubled by global climate change prospects. It might be interesting to reflect on how discussions and policies concerning the cutting of carbon emission may affect our business and what our response to it should be in strategic terms.
I would underscore first of all that we at Gazprom, very much hoped that the Copenhagen climate change summit in December 2009 could conclude a treaty on a global climate change policy to further cut carbon emissions around the world. I am positive that this is essential for cushioning probable substantial impacts of climate change on human life. |
