Abstract
Global climate change is a very controversial issue. Opinions are divided. The majority of mainstream scientists agree that global warming is a serious problem that is growing steadily worse and there are some who disagree. Regulation in international level is still debatable. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 1992 and the Kyoto Protocol 1997 are some examples of the agreement among countries related the climate change issue. These essay examines the question of the effectiveness of international environmental law. Effects of climate change will not be the some across of the globe. Different regions will be effected differently, and not all regions will have the same resources available to adapt to the changes the face. The development of the climate change regime began in the 1979 Geneva Convention on long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution and its protocols, the Vienna Convention for the Protection of Ozone Layer 1985 and the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer are not address climate change directly, these international agreement are significant also for climate change since CFCs are greenhouse gases. There are two major international environmental laws on global climate change, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 1992 and the Kyoto Protocol 1997. This essay finds out that international laws with reference to the issue of global climate change is not effective because the doctrine of sovereignty and equality among state make the agreement in international level depends on economic, social, or political interest
