Abstract: The efforts to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have been driven mainly by emission goals and targets. This paper tries to describe what has been done in the United States, as a foundation for comparison with actions taken in the European Union (EU). This foundation may help the process of identifying ways to cooperate and jointly innovate in addressing the shared global problem of climate change.
