Global warming is the most severe environmental challenge faced by
humanity today and the costs of responding effectively will be
high. While Russia's ratification of the Kyoto Protocol ensures the
treaty's entry into force, lack of capacity, or incentives to
renege on their commitments, will impede mitigation efforts in many
countries. An important prerequisite for the proper functioning of
the Protocol is that its compliance system - which is spelled out
by the Marrakesh Accords - proves effective. Implementing the
Climate Regime describes and analyses Kyoto's compliance system.
Organized into four parts, Part I describes the emergence and
design of the compliance system, while Part II analyses various
challenges to its effective operation - such as the development of
norms, verification and the danger that the use of punitive
'consequences' may also hurt compliant countries. Part III
discusses the potential role of external enforcement, with
particular emphasis on trade sanctions. Part IV addresses the
relationship between Kyoto compliance on one hand, and
international governance, oil companies and green NGOs on the
other.
