Framework Agreement on Climate Change

The Framework Agreement on Climate Change, often referred to as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), is an international treaty established in 1992. Its main goal is to address global climate change by bringing countries together to discuss and coordinate efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The agreement outlines commitments for developed nations to lead in reducing emissions while providing support to developing countries in their efforts. It serves as a foundation for subsequent agreements, including the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement, aiming to limit global warming and promote sustainable environmental practices.
