The Paris climate conference, also known as COP21, was held in late 2015 to negotiate an international agreement on climate change. The negotiations resulted in the adoption of the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, and pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further. The Kyoto Protocol is an earlier international agreement on climate change, but it has been largely superseded by the Paris Agreement. NAFTA is a trade agreement between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and the IMF Relief Fund is not related to climate change. The Warsaw Pact was a Cold War-era military alliance between the Soviet Union and its Eastern European allies.
