measures. Further to these, direct international transfers, in terms of financial resources
or technology, may be implemented between countries that have committed them-
selves to quantitative emission-reduction targets and those which have not adopted

The climate impact of water vapour emitted at altitude is 2.6 times more than that of
combusted kerosene (Lewis and Niedzwiecki, 1999, p257). Moreover, such technical
solutions are a long-term matter.
