The EU pledged to reduce EU emissions by 2030 by at least 55% compared to 1990 levels as a step towards reaching neutrality by 2050.
The Paris Agreement is a legally binding international treaty on climate change. It was adopted by 196 Parties at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris, France, on 12 December 2015.

The Paris Agreement's central aim is to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate change by keeping a global temperature rise this century well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
The Paris Agreement is a landmark in the multilateral climate change process because, for the first time, a binding agreement brings all nations together to combat climate change and adapt to its effects.
The associated Kyoto Protocol is an international agreement that classifies countries by their level of industrialisation and commits certain countries to GHG emission-reduction targets. The Kyoto Protocol commits annex 1 (developed) countries to reduce GHG emissions to 5 per cent below 1990 levels by 2012.
In short, the Kyoto Protocol operationalizes the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change by committing industrialized countries and economies in transition to limit and reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions in ance with agreed individual targets.
How to Calculate Emissions Step 1: Calculate the emissions from each GHG. Activity x Emission Factor (Tons GHG/activity unit) = Emissions (Tons GHG) ... Step 2: Calculate CO2 equivalents (CO2e) for each GHG and sum overall emissions. Emissions x Global Warming Potential (GWP) = Total Emissions (Tons CO2e)
