Brasília – President Michel Temer signed this Monday (12) morning the adoption by Brazil of the Paris Agreement, a document that sets targets for the country with the aim of stopping the rise in global temperature. Signed by the 197 member countries, called parties, of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the agreement was approved by the Brazilian Congress in August of this year. The confirmation should be presented to the United Nations (UN) this month. <\/p>\n
For the agreement to come into effect, it needs to be approved into law by at least 55 countries responsible for the 55% of the carbon emissions. Until now, only 27 countries have signed the agreement. Together, they are responsible for 39% of the global emissions. To reach its goal, the treaty sets individual targets for each country. In the case of Brazil, the country agrees to reduce its emissions of greenhouse gas in 37% until 2025 in comparison to the levels registered in 2005; and in 43% until 2030.<\/p>\n
