The Kyoto Protocol's main goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide, to mitigate the effects of climate change.

Japan was the first country to ratify the Kyoto Protocol in 1997, demonstrating its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The Paris Agreement is groundbreaking because it requires all countries to set and achieve nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, making these targets legally binding.

The UNFCCC is the primary international body responsible for coordinating global efforts to address climate change, including the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol.

The Kyoto Protocol introduced a cap-and-trade system, allowing countries to trade emission allowances among themselves to meet their emission reduction targets.

China is currently the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, primarily due to its reliance on coal-fired power plants for electricity generation.

Mitigation refers to actions taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the effects of climate change.

The Technology Transfer Framework under the UNFCCC facilitates the transfer of environmentally sound technologies for sustainable energy and climate change mitigation.

Adaptation refers to actions taken to adjust to the effects of climate change and reduce vulnerability.

IRENA is the leading international organization dedicated to promoting the adoption and sustainable use of renewable energy worldwide.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) involves capturing carbon dioxide from industrial processes or the atmosphere and storing it underground to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The Montreal Protocol is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances.

Energy efficiency refers to measures taken to reduce the amount of energy required to perform a specific task or achieve a desired outcome.

The UNFCCC is the primary international body responsible for coordinating global efforts to address climate change, including the negotiation and implementation of international agreements.

Resilience refers to the ability of a system or community to withstand and recover from the impacts of climate change.
