Motions around the glob* have, on multiple occasions, come together to formulate coll active out Ions to minimise the human impact on climate, beginning with the Kyoto Protocol (1937}, which set binding emission reduction targets for developed countries This was followed by the Paris Agreement (2015), where almost every nation committed to limiting global warming to well below 2?C, With efforts toward 1.5cC, More recently, Conference of the Forties (CGP) summits hove continued to provide a stage for countries to pledge stronger climate action, align on net-reo targets, arid mobilize finance and technology ford sustainable future
