Can you elaborate on the successor or alternative to the Kyoto Protocol in terms of addressing climate change? Was there a specific agreement or set of measures that took its place, or did nations pursue different strategies individually or through other international frameworks? How does the current approach differ from the Kyoto Protocol, and what are the key objectives and mechanisms of the new system, if any?

A key feature of the Paris Agreement is the inclusion of commitments from all major greenhouse gas-emitting countries. This means that the largest contributors to climate-altering pollution have agreed to take steps to reduce their emissions.

The Paris Agreement aims to limit global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius. This ambitious target requires significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.

The Paris Climate Agreement, adopted in 2015, marked a significant shift in global efforts to combat climate change. It superseded the Kyoto Protocol, a previous international agreement aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

To achieve this goal, the Paris Agreement encourages countries to set their own nationally determined contributions (NDCs), outlining the specific actions they will take to reduce their emissions. These contributions are reviewed and updated every five years to ensure progress is being made.

In addition to national efforts, the Paris Agreement also promotes international cooperation and support for developing countries to help them transition to low-carbon economies and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
