procedures and rules of counting of the gas emissions.
Organization of the system of exchanges of gas emission between North and the South (an industrialized country is thus authorized to withdraw the quantity of gas that it helps to reduce in another country of its total account),
Création of funds of adaptation allowing the emergent countries to deal with the climate changes having to be equipped with 450 million euros,
Installation of a control committee of the respect of engagements. If a country would not respect its engagements, it would then be excluded from the system of exchange between the countries.
