Abstract

Climate change is now increasingly a concern with the international community considering the resulting negative impact is very complex and cause threats. Almost all areas of human life will be affected by climate change. Therefore the UN has made efforts to formulate an international agreement on climate change through at least three legal instruments. Starting from the Climate Change Convention that was born from the Rio de Janeiro Conference in 1992, then the Kyoto Protocol to the Paris Agreement. The problem is that the implementation of the three international agreements above is not as easy as imagined because of differences in interests between member countries or because of different international economic and political motivations. Therefore, the need for international legal studies concerning the constraints born of the three instruments the law concerned.
