ولم تبين الانبعاثات من العمليات الصناعية واستخدام الطاقة من قطاعات "أخرى" (لا سيما السكنية والتجارية والمؤسسية) اتجاهاً واضحاً، ولكنها، رغم ذلك، انخفضت بعض الشيء في نهاية التسعينات.
Some policy-relevant national circumstances, e.g. higher-than-expected economic growth and lower-than-expected oil prices, contributed to the higher-than-expected baseline emissions and lowered the actual emission reductions from many policies, especially of policies aimed at energy conservation, in some of the Annex IAnnex II Parties experiencing emission growth, (e. g. the the Netherlands, etherlands and the United States) In addition, in many Parties climate policies implemented in at the beginning of the 1990s were not sufficient to deliver the reductions needed to stabilize emissions, or the development and implementation of policies took much longer than expected, or policy mix relied heavily on voluntary approaches with no consequences in case of non-conon-compliance with the targets set.
