Kyoto protocol to Paris agreement

                             KYOTO PROTOCOL TO PARIS AGREEMENT
       
    Kyoto protocol is an international agreement adopted in Kyoto, Japan on December 11, 1997 and came into force on February 16, 2005.  Currently there are 192 parties in it. The main objective of this protocol was to eradicate global warming by reducing green house gases from entering the atmosphere.

           
           Paris agreement or Paris climate agreement is an agreement dealing with  green house emissions. It was adopted on 12 December 2015 and came into force on 4 November 2016. As of February 2018, 194 states and the European Union have signed the agreement.  

         
         The Paris agreement gives more safety values than the Kyoto deal so that countries like China and India would not be scared off. The Paris agreement also provides a few requirements on countries for reporting their progress. The procedure of Paris agreement is same as Kyoto protocol but there is not enough time as earlier for time taking processes. The deals differ in their approach to achieve the ultimate goal to stabilize the green house gases. Kyoto protocol binds only the developed countries and not the developing countries to reduce their emissions. Paris agreement can make maximum emitters to reduce their emissions. However in this, it asks the developed countries to take the lead.
