UNFCCC | Got Mimi

The UNFCCC is the foundational international treaty established in 1992 to combat climate change. It sets the overarching goals and principles for global cooperation, aiming to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. While it doesn't set binding emission reduction targets for individual countries, it provides the framework for subsequent protocols and agreements, most notably the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. Its enduring significance lies in establishing the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and enabling a continuous global dialogue on climate action.
