Kyoto Protocol

If you are a Malaysian, you will definitely feel the heat in recent months. Yes, the world is getting hotter and hotter, thanks to the emission of green house gases (GHG) by all of us – human!

Currently, China tops the chart as the biggest emitter of GHG, surpassing the United States on August 2008. China, U.S., European Union and India are the top contributors to world GHG.

Kyoto Protocol is a protocol aimed at reducing the emission of GHG to prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Details of the agreement can be read here.

As human becomes more civilized and countries becoming more developed, how can we avoid emitting GHG? I really don’t know to what extend Kyoto Protocol is useful in curbing green house effect, but I can be certain that the temperature is going to increase, the ozone layer is still thinning, and we are going to live in a hotter earth.

Let’s face it, one day, sinful human who destroys this earth shall extinct.
