The major hindrances which Kyoto protocol or aforementioned protocols of same nature face is the stubborn and defiant attitude of industrial giants like the US ,The UK and other Europe countries.Asia Pacific was recently concluded with the propaganda campaign launched by the West-either global warming is a myth or reality.The attitude of Western nations and the US towards clean development mechanism is really ridiculous and embarrassing.All these countries are running for their materialistic gains in this globalizing world and are;thus;ignoring the laws of sustainable development.They are producing goods in bounty to capture the global markets thus exacerbating the already fragile conditions of atmosphere,plagued by different pollutions-soil,air water and noise.
The highly industrialized economics are trying to achieve huge economic and trade benefits at the expense of “nature” which ,like a living organism,react if its phenomenon are played with.’Global Warming’ can be said to be more or less the revenge of the “nature” against the exploitation of this “blue-green planet” earth. Furthermore,to counter the sanctity of the Kyoto Protocol the leading polluters of Asia and Pacific region,the US,Australia,China,Japan,South Korea,and India have launched their separate forum,named AP-6 forum.
Through this forum these countries are making every attempt to nullify the provision of the “Kyoto Protocol”.One of the latest debate launched over this platform was either global warming is a threat or a reality.The propounder of this forum gave a new concept of “global cooling” to overshadow recent debate of “global warming” .The supporters of this concept argue that the temperature of the earth is going down and soon there will be art advent of new ice-age,the last one prevailed fromm 12000 to 13000 years.But all their claims have been proved false by neutral environmentalistic investigating.
Though the case and it was declared that 2005 was the warmest year of the times. Another framework regarding the disease “global warming” effect is the one signed in 1992.Most countries are parties to the UNFCCC ( United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change).The ultimate objective of the convention is to prevent “dangerous human interference in the climate system.This was signed in 1992 but since then global emissions have risen.During negotiations ,the G77 (a lobbying group in the UN representing developing nations) pushed for a mandate requiring developed countries to the lead” in reducing their emissions.
This was justified on the basis that the developed world’s emissions had contributed most to the stock of “Greenhouse Gases” in the atmosphere.This mandate was sustained in the ‘Kyoto Protocol’ to the framework convention,which entered into legal effect in 2005.This treaty was rejected by US president George Bush on the basis that it would cause serious harm to the US economy
