1. These projections cover emissions from energy and industrial sources as well as those from forest harvesting, scrub clearance for new planting, wild fires and prescribed burning. They assume:
   1. no additional policy measures;
   2. GDP growth of 3 percent per year; and
   3. new forest plantings of 70,000 hectares per year up to 2005 AD, falling to 55,000 hectares per year thereafter.
2. The 1994 policy target of reducing net emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2000 and maintaining them thereafter is currently being reassessed and different targets may be set for the period for the period beyond 2000.
