  • UNFCCC
    The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC or FCCC) is an international environmental treaty produced at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), informally known as the Earth summit, held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992.

     Objective – to “stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level
    that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.”
     The framework set no binding limits on greenhouse gas emissions for individual
    countries and contains no enforcement mechanisms
     In that sense, treaty is considered legally non-binding. Instead, the treaty provides for
    updates (called “protocols”) that would set mandatory emission limits.
     The principal update is the Kyoto Protocol, which has become much better than UNFCCC
    itself.
     UNFCCC is also the name of UN secretariat charged with supporting the operation of the
    convention,
