Carbontarget

This service sets the emissions targets on a country by country basis.

Session targets are set with the aim to reduce world emissions by 5% per session and account for non participant countries continuing to output without reduction. Each country will have to reduce its carbon as a proportion of the carbon it produced in the previous session

Formulas to derive targets for sessions:

   newGlobalTarget = lastSessionTarget * 0.95
   kyotoTarget = newGlobalTarget - rogueCarbonOutput
   lastSessionProportion = countryOuput / (totalWorldOutput - rogueCarbonOutput)
   countryTarget = kyotoTarget * lastSessionProportion

Formulas to derive year on year targets:

   sessionProgress = sessionYear / YEARS_IN_SESSION
   sessionTargetDiff = lastSessionTarget - thisSessionTarget
   yearTarget = lastSessionTarget - sessionTargetDiff*sessionProgress - penalty
