    The Pros And Cons Of The Kyoto Protocol

    In the late eighties and early nineties, the international community became increasingly concerned by the problem of climate change and realized that it is indeed an acute global issue. Amidst such an atmosphere, the text of an international treaty, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, and the Convention entered into force in 1994. However, by 1995 the countries realized that the provisions on emission reductions in the Convention were not adequate . The Kyoto Protocol, adopted in Kyoto, Japan, on 11 December 1997, was a result of the ensuing negotiations to make the global response to climate change more effective. The UNFCCC defines the Kyoto Protocol…

    Cap and Trade Policy Paper

    The issue of carbon emissions is an important one not only from an environmental perspective but also an economic one. While reducing carbon emissions is an important one for the health of human beings as well as that of the environment, the larger question is what type of policy strategy is best for both reducing such emissions which might have an impact on efforts to mitigate the effects of pollution on climate change. While ther are options to consider which does not rely on economics-- technological or output standards achieved by command and control regulations--they are often fraught with political resistance by industry because they do not allow industry to make any choices or play a role in solving the problem of excessive emissions and the burden that these emissions place on others. Instead of such draconian measures based on fiat, the preferred options rely on economic tools instead to provide incentives to industry to police itself by either incenting investment in emission-reducing and/or energy saving technologies or to reduce production in line with the total/social-costs rather than just the private/ producer-costs of production. Two such economic policies to consider in this regard are emission taxes and cap-and-trade policies.…

    Global Warming Synthesis

    When dealing with global warming, the practicality of policies is one of the most important and fundamental issues. Yet the policies are useless if they cannot be implemented. As we have limited resources, we should choose to maximize our resources by comparing the benefits and costs of each policy. In other words, the balancing global warming and other problems should be set appropriately. (Source D) Too much burden on economic development lessens the possibility of carrying out the policies. Furthermore, the actual effectiveness is a critical factor when making global warming policies. Thus, the countermeasure to global warming is in a state of emergency. But according to Maslin Mark, the requirements of the Kyoto Protocol are far below the threshold diminution necessary to “prevent major climatic change.” (Source E) In other words, the makers of the Kyoto Protocol should have been considered the actual effect precisely to produce satisfactory results. Therefore, leaders should consider the economic practicality and the extent of expected effect when making policies that may affect global warming.…

    Effects of Climate Change on Developing Countries

    “Over the past two centuries, the average temperature of our planet has been rising faster than at any time during the last 1000 years. 1997 was the hottest year ever recorded and 13 of the warmest years in the 20th century, occurred since 1980”. This problem has to be solved by the developed countries because they produce the higher gas emissions and they are the main cause of the global warming. Developed countries have the responsibility to help developing countries. Some developed countries signed the Kyoto Protocol and reduced their gas emissions. Canada with the CCCDF (Canada Climate Change Development Fund), is helping South America to solve the problem. Some large counties like USA, the main pollutant is not helping as much as developing countries need them.…
