Climate change, desertification and biodiversity loss are three heavily interlinked issues that pose existential challenges to humanity. “The Rio Convention” was founded by the governments of 179 countries in response to these challenges at the 1992 Earth Summit. Its primary objective is to design a broad agenda and a new plan to help guide developmental policies and encourage international cooperation in the 21st century by making a new plan for international actions to be taken on developmental and environmental issues.
