Explanation: The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was signed in 1987. It is a treaty on the Protection of Global Commons. Kyoto Protocol was an international treaty that extended the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change that commits state parties to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. India signed the Kyoto Protocol in 2002. The 1987 Brundtland Report, Our Common Future, warned that traditional patterns of economic growth were not sustainable in the long term, especially in view of the demands of the South for further industrial development. The growing focus on environmental issues within the arena of global politics was firmly consolidated at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in June 1992. This was also called the Earth Summit. The summit was attended by 170 states, thousands of NGOs and many multinational corporations. The Rio Summit produced conventions dealing with climate change, biodiversity, and forestry, and recommended a list of development practices called ‘Agenda 21’. |
