  11. What Counts? • All embodied emissions (8% difference • “Real” emissions, not false assumptions (10% difference) • Inclusion of the US and Japan in domestic schemes (15% difference) What doesn’t count • Least developed countries (under 1%) • Full GHG emissions (at least for existing sectors) (under 2%)

  12. Challenges • Complex carbon accounting system that is robust • Difficulty of border carbon adjustments that would make a difference
