Abstract

The history of international agreements aimed at environmental protection offers a mix of successes and failures, with the latter being far more frequent than the former. The best known example is the Kyoto protocol: a treatise signed by over 160 countries to reduce emissions of gasses held responsible for green-house effect. This agreement is usually considered to be a half failure, mostly because of the decision of the United States not to ratify it (Pizer 2006: 26). Other international treatises faced similar problems. For example, the Helsinki treaty for the reduction of emissions responsible for acid rains, signed in 1985 by a group of European and American countries, failed to be ratified by United States and United Kingdom (Barrett 2005).
