The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty that sets binding obligations on industrialized countries to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. The United States signed but did not ratify the Protocol and Canada withdrew from it in 2011.
The Kyoto protocol is an agreement by all the countries of the world to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide by various limits. All the countries signed, but the US refused to ratify the treaty. It will help decrease global warming, especially if all countries do what they have signed up to do.
The United States did not ratify the Kyoto Protocol in 1997, the year it was adopted. Although the U.S. played a significant role in the negotiations, President George W. Bush announced in 2001 that the country would not implement the treaty, citing concerns about its economic impact and the exemption of developing countries from binding targets.

A treaty is a formal, binding agreement between two nations. In the United States, the first step in the treaty-making process is for the President to negotiate a draft agreement with foreign leaders. When he is satisfied with the agreement, he will sign the treaty. However, the President's signature is not enough to make a treaty legally binding under either US or international law. The US Constitution requires the Senate to ratify all treaties, with two thirds of the Senators present voting in favor of the treaty. Once this has occurred, the treaty is considered ratified and is binding on the United States. However, most other countries require their legislatures to ratify treaties as well, and most treaties explicitly say that they have no effect until a certain number of countries, and/or specific countries, ratify the treaty. It is possible for the Senate to ratify a treaty only partially. This is known as a "reservation." The Senate specifies any parts of the treaty to which it does not agree, and then ratifies the treaty "with reservations." Often, the President will then attempt to renegotiate the treaty with the other nations involved.
