In COP3, held in Kyoto, Japan, the Kyoto Protocol was agreed on by parties
in line with UNFCCC goals. The agreement of international community on a
new regime or protocol for the success of Kyoto Protocol took a long time.
Türkiye officially became a party to the Kyoto Protocol in 2009.Since Turkey was
not a party to the UNFCCC in 1997 when the Kyoto Protocol was adopted, and
therefore was not included in the Kyoto Protocol list, it did not take the digitized
greenhouse gas mitigation and limitation obligation in the first commitment
period between 2008 and 2012. Türkiye did not undertake any commitments in
the second commitment period between the years 2013-2020. However, Türkiye
was responsible for preparing a national report and greenhouse gas inventory,
which was required for every country (Kaba, 2020: 25).
Finally, in December 2015, in the COP 21 the Paris Agreement was agreed.
The key aspects of the Paris agreement can be listed as follows (United
Nations, 2016: 19):
• The need for an effective and progressive response to the urgent
threat of climate change should be recognized.
• The specific needs and special circumstances of countries that are
particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change
should be recognized as provided for in the Convention.
• Climate change actions, responses and impacts should be in line with
sustainable development and should be efficient in eradicating poverty.
• In the face of the adverse effects of climate change, the goals of food
production systems to ensure food security and ending hunger should
be taken into account, and actions should be taken accordingly.
• When taking action to address climate change, the Parties should
respect promote and consider their respective obligations on
human rights, the right to health, the rights of indigenous peoples,
local communities, migrants, children, persons with disabilities and
