COP2·Geneva, Switzerland in 1996

The meeting discussed the drafting of the "Protocol" involved in the "Berlin Mandate". However, no consensus was reached and it was decided that all Parties should participate in the "Protocol". The ad hoc group" will continue discussions and report the results to COP3.

COP3·Kyoto, Japan 1997

Representatives from 149 countries and regions adopted the "Kyoto Protocol" at the conference, which stipulates that from 2008 to 2012, major industrially developed countries China's greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by an average of 5.2% compared with 1990. The EU will reduce emissions of six greenhouse gases by 8%, the United States will reduce emissions by 7%, and Japan will reduce emissions by 6%.

COP4·Buenos Aires 1998

At the conference, the group of developing countries was divided into three groups. One was vulnerable to the impact of climate change and its own emissions were very high; The Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) voluntarily undertakes emission reduction targets; the second is countries that look forward to the CDM, hoping to obtain foreign exchange earnings; the third is China and India, which currently insist on not committing to emission reduction obligations.

COP5·Bonn, Germany in 1999

Adopted the Annexes to the Convention—Guidelines for the preparation of national communications from the Parties listed, guidelines for the technical review of greenhouse gas inventories, and preparation of reports on the Global Climate Observing System Guidelines and consultations on technology development and transfer and capacity-building in developing countries and countries with economies in transition.

COP6·The Hague, Netherlands, 2000

The negotiations formed a tripartite confrontation between the EU, the United States, and major developing countries (China and India). A few developed countries such as the United States insist on promoting "emission offset" and other programs and try to use them as a substitute for emission reduction; the EU emphasizes the implementation of the Kyoto Agreement and tries to gain advantages through emission reduction; China and India insist on not committing to emission reduction obligations.

COP7·Marrakech, Morocco 2001

At the COP7 held in Marrakech, Morocco, a package of high-level political decisions on the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol (especially the CDM) was adopted , forming the Marrakech Agreement document. The agreement paves the way for Annex I Parties to the Kyoto Protocol to ratify the Kyoto Protocol and bring it into force.

The Delhi Declaration adopted by the conference emphasized that reducing greenhouse gas emissions and sustainable development remain important tasks for all contracting parties to implement the treaty in the future. The "Declaration" reiterates the requirements of the "Kyoto Protocol" and urges industrialized countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 5.2% on the basis of 1990 before the end of 2012.

COP9·Milan, Italy 2003

When the United States withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol, Russia, despite the persuasion of many participating representatives, still refused to ratify its protocol, preventing the protocol from entering into force. . In order to curb climate change and reduce the economic losses caused by it, the meeting passed about 20 legally binding environmental protection resolutions.

COP10·Buenos Aires 2004

Representatives from more than 150 countries focused on the achievements and future of the 10th anniversary of the entry into force of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change The challenges faced, the impact of climate change, greenhouse gas emission reduction policies, and important issues such as technology transfer, financial mechanisms, and capacity building under the framework of the Convention were discussed.

COP11·Montreal, Canada 2005

On February 16, 2005, the "Kyoto Protocol" officially entered into force. In November of the same year, COP11, held in Montreal, Canada, reached more than 40 important decisions.

COP12·Nairobi, Kenya 2006

The conference achieved two important results: First, it reached dozens of decisions including the "Nairobi Work Plan" to help developing countries Improve the ability to respond to climate change; second, reach agreement on the management of the "Adaptation Fund" and use it to support specific climate change adaptation activities in developing countries.

COP13·Bali, Indonesia 2007

The meeting focused on how to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions after the first phase of the Kyoto Protocol expires in 2012. It adopted the "Bali Roadmap" and is committed to completing negotiations and signing an agreement on new arrangements for global response to climate change in the "post-Kyoto" period before the end of 2009.

COP14·Poznan, Poland 2008

The leaders of the Group of Eight reached agreement on long-term greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and declared that they seek to cooperate with other parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change* ** Jointly achieve the long-term goal of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions by at least half by 2050, and discuss and adopt this goal with these countries in the negotiations related to the convention.

COP15·Copenhagen, Denmark 2009

Starting from December 7, 2009, negotiators from 192 countries will hold the COP15 meeting in Copenhagen to discuss the commitments of the first phase of the "Kyoto Protocol" Follow-up plan after the period.

COP 18·Doha, Qatar 2012

This is a wealthy and auspicious city, where many competitions and conferences are held. Wish this city good luck to the climate conference! However, from the very beginning, the two camps of developing countries and developed countries began to attack each other and awarded the United States, Japan and other countries the "Fossil Prize", which means that this meeting is still an extremely difficult negotiation, and mankind has been united in the face of several crises.
