CO2 stabilization is primarily a biological problem, not a technological or geophysical one, because the bulk of carbon flows through biotic processes. Increased photosynthesis and carbon storage in vegetation, soils, and sediments is therefore needed along with emissions reductions to stabilize CO2. 1, record 1, English, - CO2%20stabilization

Le Conseil conjoint énergie/Environnement présente une stratégie globale [..] : stabiliser les émissions de CO2 au niveau atteint en 1990. [...] Certaines des énergies renouvelables contribueraient à atteindre l'objectif de stabilisation si elles étaient plus largement utilisées. 2, record 1, French, - stabilisation%20des%20%C3%A9missions%20de%20gaz%20carbonique

Il faut faire une distinction entre la limitation des émissions et la stabilisation des émissions. La première consiste à réduire directement les rejets dans l'atmosphère; la seconde réunit toutes les stratégies utilisables pour maintenir, sans l'augmenter, un certain niveau de concentration de gaz carbonique dans l'atmosphère; parmi ces stratégies, on remarque la limitation des émissions, l'augmentation de l'efficacité énergétique, etc. L'expression «stabilisation des émissions» porte à confusion, il s'agit ici des concentrations qui résultent des émissions. 1, record 1, French, - stabilisation%20des%20%C3%A9missions%20de%20gaz%20carbonique
