191 countries have signed and ratified the kyoto protocol as of september 2011...
In Kyoto, on the island of Honshū, Japan, countries met in December 1997 to establish an agreement to limit the amounts of greenhouse gas emissions. This agreement is known as the Kyoto Protocol.
The Kyoto Protocol is the most recent multinational pact to curb greenhouse gases. This pact is intended to reduce the overall impact of greenhouse gases on the global community.
The Kyoto Protocol is an international agreement with the objective of reducing greenhouse gases that cause climate change. The Kyoto mechanisms are: * Stimulate sustainable development through technology transfer and investment * Help countries with Kyoto commitments to meet their targets by reducing emissions or removing carbon from the atmosphere in other countries in a cost-effective way * Encourage the private sector and developing countries to contribute to emission reduction efforts The protocol includes having most signatory countries lower the output of six greenhouse gases namely CO2, CH4, NO2, SF6, Hydrofluorocarbons (CFCs) and perfluorocarbons.
It's Kyoto not Tokyo "Kyoto protocol".
Kyoto Protocol- is the only international agreement aimed at controlling the greenhouse emissions that are hurting our climate change.This claim is made by many groups although there is no reductions in greenhouse emissions even offered by this protocol. In fact, most countries get unlimited growth in CO2 production.ORThe Kyoto Protocol is a multi-national agreement for the reduction of the emission of greenhouse gasses.In 1997, the problem of the rising of earth's average temperature was a strong enough political topic that eighty world leaders met in Kyoto, Japan, to agree upon a means of controlling that increase. The result was the Kyoto Protocol, which had no legal authority unless ratified by individual countries according to their constitutional processes. Countries that ratify agree to reduce their emissions of five greenhouse gases and CO2. The Protocol applies mostly to developed countries, with less stringent requirements being placed on nations with developing economies.As of 2009 all countries except the United States have ratified the protocol.The Kyoto Protocol is an international agreement linked to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which commits its Parties by setting internationally binding emission reduction targets.
It really has little short or near term affect on this portion of the planet. The Kyoto Protocol is an attempt to curb CO2 emissions through the transfer of large amounts of money. No country must lower emissions to comply with Kyoto. The few countries that are asked to curb emissions are permitted to become exempt through the transfer of money. Many countries, including the world largest producer of CO2 (China), are allowed, under Kyoto, to increase their production at will.
yes Spain did sign the Kyoto protocol
Yes, China has signed and ratified the Kyoto protocol.
The purpose of the Kyoto Protocol was to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases across the globe. 192 nations have signed the Kyoto Protocol, though only 37 of them have binding carbon emission targets.
This question refers to the signatories of the Kyoto Protocols. The failures of Kyoto were based on disparities of enforcement between industrialized economies such as the United States and the then developing countries, chiefly China and India. Western countries faced a more stringent burden of carbon regulatory emissions in comparison to these developing states. For these reasons and others the United States and other countries could not agree to Kyoto's language.
The Kyoto Protocol is an 1997 international agreement by all countries to reduce their carbon emissions. Carbon dioxide pollution, emitted largely by the burning of fossil fuels, is causing global warming, and that is causing climate change. That is the connection between climate change and the Kyoto Protocol.
