Common but differentiated responsibilities

Explanation:

During the Rio Summit, conventions were established to address climate change, biodiversity, and forestry. Additionally, a catalog of development practices known as Agenda 21 was recommended. Everyone agreed that ecological responsibility and economic growth go hand in hand. Sustainable development is the most common term for this development method. An agreement on the Climate Change Convention was a significant accomplishment of the summit, which subsequently resulted in the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement.
