The United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (the Stockholm Conference) was held in Stockholm, Sweden from June 5 to 16, 1972. The most significant results of the Conference were the adoption of the Declaration of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, which recognized the fundamental right to a healthy environment and established the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities for environmental protection, and the creation of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), an agency of the United Nations responsible for coordinating environmental activities and assisting countries in implementing environmentally sound policies.
The Brundtland Commission, also known as the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), was established by the United Nations in 1983 to address the global environmental and developmental challenges facing the world. The Commission brought up a number of issues, including the need for sustainable development, the impact of economic growth on the environment, and the role of technology in environmental protection.
Some examples of environmental deterioration in the 1990s include:
The depletion of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere, which is caused by the release of certain chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons, leading to increased levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching the Earth's surface and contributing to skin cancer and other health problems.
The loss of biodiversity, which is the result of habitat destruction, pollution, and the introduction of invasive species, leading to the extinction of many species and the disruption of ecosystems.
The increase in greenhouse gas emissions, which is caused by the burning of fossil fuels and other human activities, leading to global warming and climate change.
The Rio Conference, also known as the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1992. The Conference adopted several documents, including:
The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development, which sets out 27 principles for sustainable development, including the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and the right to development.
The Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC), which is an international treaty that aims to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system.
The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), which is an international treaty that aims to protect the diversity of life on Earth, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, and to ensure the sustainable use of natural resources.
The process of global warming, which is caused by the increase in greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere, is dangerous because it leads to a number of negative impacts on the environment and human health, including:
Rising sea levels, which can cause coastal flooding and the loss of low-lying areas.
Extreme weather events, such as heatwaves, droughts, and storms, which can damage infrastructure and disrupt agriculture.
Loss of biodiversity, as many species are unable to adapt to the changing climate and may go extinct.
Negative impacts on human health, such as increased rates of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and vector-borne diseases
