What Does UNFCCC Stand For?

UNFCCC stands for United Nations Framework Convention On Climate Change

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international treaty established in 1992 to address global climate change. It provides a framework for countries to negotiate and implement measures aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating the impacts of climate change. The convention's primary objective is to stabilize atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases to prevent dangerous interference with the climate system, facilitating sustainable development and environmental protection. The UNFCCC hosts annual conferences, known as the Conference of the Parties (COP), where nations come together to assess progress and set future climate commitments.
