Explanation : 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. During the second commitment period, Parties committed to
reduce Greenhouse gas emissions by at
least 18 % below 1990 levels in the eight-year
period from 2013 to 2020; however,
the composition of Parties in the second
commitment period is different from the
first.
