Sažetak

Integration into the EU is one of strategic foreign policy goals of Croatia. Before accession, Croatia has to align with the EU policies and legislation. The European Commission in its Croatia 2007 Progress report identified ratification of the Kyoto Protocol as progress regarding environmental chapter of accession negotiations. By ratifying the Kyoto Protocol in May 2007 Croatia pledged to reduce greenhouse gases by 5% in the first commitment period, 2008-2012, from the amount released into the atmosphere in 1990.
Based on international, European and domestic tools for meeting the Kyoto Protocol and the Croatian draft Strategy and Action plan for mitigation of climate change we analyse feasibility of meeting the Kyoto target. Importance to align with the Kyoto target is finally evaluated from the perspective of Croatia's efforts to join the EU.
