Background The Kyoto Protocol is an treaty between developed countries that establishes binding restrictions on the emission greenhouse gases to mitigate the global climate change caused by the greenhouse effect (Schieirmeier, 2010). The greenhouse effect is the warming effect of the sun on greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, that trap the heat in the atmosphere.  The more of these gases that are present, the more heat is prevented from dispersing into space and the more the planet warms. The greenhouse effect is important for life on Earth, an excess of greenhouse gases increases global ...
