United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ( UNFCCC ) is an international environmental treaty adopted on 9 May 1992 and opened for signature at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro from 3 to 14 June 1992. It then entered into force on 21 March 1994, after a sufficient number of countries had ratified it. The UNFCCC objective is to "stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system ". [3] The framework sets non binding limits on greenhouse gas emissions for individual countries and contains no enforcement mechanisms. Instead, the framework outlines how specific international treaties (called "protocols" or "Agreements") may be negotiated to specify further action towards the objective of the UNFCCC

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ( UNFCCC ) is an international environmental treaty (currently the only international climate policy venue with broad legitimacy, due in part to its virtually universal membership) [2] negotiated at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), informally known as the Earth Summit , held in Rio de Janeiro from 3 to 14 June 1992. The objective of the treaty is to "stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system". [3]

The Framework Convention sets no mandatory limits on greenhouse gas emissions for individual nations and contains no enforcement provisions. It is therefore considered legally non-binding. However, the treaty does include provisions for additional protocols that would set mandatory emission limits.
