Factbox: 100 nations sign up for Copenhagen climate deal

(Reuters) - The number of nations signed up for the Copenhagen Accord for fighting climate change has risen to 100 two months after it was agreed at a summit in December, documents showed on Tuesday.

China, India and Russia are the largest greenhouse gas emitters yet to make clear if they fully endorse the deal, which sets a goal of limiting a rise in world temperatures to less than 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 F).

Under the non-binding pact, rich nations also plan to give $30 billion in climate aid from 2010-12, rising to $100 billion a year from 2020.

The U.N. Climate Change Secretariat asked its 194 members to spell out by February 1 if they want to be "associated," meaning their names will be listed at the top of the 3-page document.

Under the flexible deadline, the number of associates has risen to 100. Of these, more than 60 have also issued domestic goals for reining in climate change by 2020.

Following are details of national plans published on the website of the Secretariat -- an asterisk (*) shows countries that have explicitly stated they want to be associated:

INDUSTRIALISED NATIONS -- EMISSIONS CUTS BY 2020 (FROM 1990

LEVELS UNLESS STATED)

* UNITED STATES - "In the range of" 17 percent from 2005 levels, or 4 percent below 1990 levels.

* EUROPEAN UNION (27 nations) - 20 percent, 30 percent if others act.

RUSSIA - 15 to 25 percent

* JAPAN - 25 percent as part of a "fair and effective international framework."

* CANADA - 17 percent from 2005 levels, matching U.S. goal.

* AUSTRALIA - 5 percent below 2000 levels, 25 percent if there is an ambitious global deal. The range is 3-23 percent below 1990.

* BELARUS - 5 to 10 percent, on condition of access to carbon trading and new technologies.

* CROATIA - 5 percent

* KAZAKHSTAN - 15 percent

* NEW ZEALAND - 10 to 20 percent "if there is a comprehensive global agreement."

* NORWAY - 30 percent, or 40 if there is an ambitious deal.

* ICELAND - 30 percent in a joint effort with the EU.

* LIECHTENSTEIN - 20 percent, 30 percent if others act.

* MONACO - 30 percent; aims to be carbon neutral by 2050.

DEVELOPING NATIONS' ACTIONS FOR 2020

CHINA - Will endeavor to cut the amount of carbon produced per unit of economic output by 40 to 45 percent from 2005 levels. This "carbon intensity" goal would let emissions keep rising, but more slowly than economic growth. Says it "highly commends and supports" the Copenhagen Accord but stops short of saying if it wants China listed as an "associate."

INDIA - Will endeavor to reduce the emissions intensity of gross domestic product by 20 to 25 percent versus 2005.

* BRAZIL - Aims to cut emissions by between 36.1 and 38.9 percent below "business as usual" levels with measures such as reducing deforestation, energy efficiency and more hydropower.

* SOUTH AFRICA - With the right international aid, emissions could peak between 2020-25 plateau for a decade and then decline in absolute terms from about 2035.

* INDONESIA - Reduce emissions by 26 percent by 2020 with measures including sustainable peat management, reduced deforestation and energy efficiency.

* MEXICO - Aims to cut greenhouse gases by up to 30 percent below business as usual. A climate change programme from 2009-12 will also avert 51 million tonnes of carbon emissions.

* SOUTH KOREA - Cut greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent below business as usual projections

SMALLER EMITTERS

* ARMENIA - Increase renewable energy output, modernize power plants, restore forests.

* BENIN - Develop public transport in Cotonou, better forest management, methane recovery from waste in big cities.

* BHUTAN - Already absorbs more carbon in vegetation than it emits from burning fossil fuels; plans to stay that way.

* BOTSWANA - Will shift to gas from coal. Nuclear power, renewables, biomass and carbon capture also among options.

* CONGO - Improved agriculture, controls on vehicles in major cities, better forestry management.

* COSTA RICA - Plans a long-term effort to become "carbon neutral" under which any industrial emissions will be offset elsewhere, for instance by planting forests.

* ETHIOPIA - Actions including hydropower dams, wind farms, geothermal energy, biofuels and reforestation.

* GEORGIA - Will try to build a low-carbon economy while ensuring continued growth. It said, however, that the legacy of the 2008 war with Russia limited its ability to act.

* GHANA - Switch from oil to natural gas in electricity generation, build more hydropower dams, raise the share of renewable energy to 10-20 percent of electricity by 2020.

* ISRAEL - Will strive for a 20 percent cut in emissions below business as usual projections. Goals include getting 10 percent of electricity generation from renewable sources.

* IVORY COAST - Plans shift to renewable energies, better forest management and farming, improve pollution monitoring.

* JORDAN - Shift to renewable energies, upgrade railways, roads and ports. Goals include modernizing military equipment.

* MACEDONIA - Improving energy efficiency, boosting renewable energies, harmonization with EU energy laws.

* MADAGASCAR - Shift to hydropower for major cities, push for "large scale" reforestation across the island, improve agriculture, waste management and transport.

* MALDIVES - Achieve "carbon neutrality" by 2020.

* MARSHALL ISLANDS - Cut carbon dioxide emissions by 40 percent below 2009 levels.

* MOLDOVA - Cut emissions by "no less than 25 percent" from 1990 levels.

* MONGOLIA - Examining large-scale solar power in the Gobi desert, wind and hydropower. Also to improved use of coal.

* MOROCCO - Develop renewable energies such as wind, solar power, hydropower. Improve industrial efficiency.

* PAPUA NEW GUINEA - At least halve emissions per unit of economic output by 2030; become carbon neutral by 2050.

* SINGAPORE - Aims for a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 16 percent below business as usual levels if the world agrees a strong, legally binding deal.

* SIERRA LEONE - Increase conservation efforts, ensure forest cover of at least 3.4 million hectares by 2015. Develop clean energy including biofuels from sugarcane or rice husks.

TOGO - Raise forested area to 30 percent of the country by 2050 from 7 percent in 2005; improve energy efficiency.

Other nations asking to be associated, without outlining 2020 targets: Albania, the Bahamas, Bangladesh, Bosnia, Cambodia, Central African Republic, Chile, Colombia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Djibouti, Fiji, Gabon, Guatemala, Guyana, Laos, Lesotho, Malawi, Mali, Montenegro, Namibia, Nauru, Nepal, Palau, Panama, Peru, Rwanda, Samoa, San Marino, Serbia, Tanzania, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay.

Ecuador, Kuwait and Nauru reject association with the Accord. The Philippines said it will support the Copenhagen Accord if developed nations make deep and early cuts.
