"Mexico is beginning to be a major proponent of climate change. President Felipe Calderon is pushing the issue on the country’s agenda. The country’s national goal is to reduce emissions to 50% of 2002 levels by 2050. Mexico wants 7.6% of total installed generation capacity to come from renewable sources (excluding large hydroelectric projects) by 2012 — up from 3.3% in 2008." (Quoted from article)
