The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. Adopted in 1997 and enforced in 2005, it establishes legally binding commitments for developed countries to reduce their emissions of six greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, based on 1990 levels. The protocol emphasizes the principle of "common but differentiated responsibilities," recognizing that developed nations should take the lead in addressing climate change due to their historical contributions to emissions.
