  • Kyoto Treaty - was only a starting point

Kyoto Treaty - was only a starting point

Area Eco is keen to work in partnership with all stakeholders to embrace the actions needed to mitigate the hazards arising from climate change and rising energy prices.

What is Kyoto Treaty?

The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty which extends the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) that commits State Parties to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, based on the scientific consensus that (a) global warming is occurring and (b) it is extremely likely that human-made CO2 emissions have predominantly caused it. The Kyoto Protocol was adopted in Kyoto, Japan, on December 11, 1997 and entered into force on February 16, 2005. There are currently 192 parties (Canada withdrew effective December 2012) to the Protocol.
