Protection of the natural environment is one of the fundamental problems of the contemporary world. The major threats of the 21st century include global warming, water pollution and decreasing water resources, deforestation and loss of biological diversity. Many international organizations engage in counteracting the effects of those threats and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) plays and important role in this respect. The organization is an agenda of the UN, founded in 1972 to monitor the state of the natural environment worldwide and to identify problems that require international cooperation. Furthermore, it assists in the codification of the international law for natural environment conservation and recommends implementation of national environmental policies by governments in various countries. The article also presents the genesis and structure of the organization and the range of its activities. Special emphasis is placed on the role of the UNEP as administrator of the Secretariat of the United Nations Convention on Climate Change. This is followed by a discussion of the results of the 14th Conference of Parties to the Convention that took place in Poznan from 1 to 12 December 2008.

In our work we analyse Paris climate agreement in the context of the level of its implementation to practical life. As an input data we use an annual quantity of territorial CO2 emissions and CO2 emissions per capita in selected countries between years 2015 ‒2019. This data should illustrate the actual level of implementation success of Paris agreement. We work with hypothesis, that the Paris agreement is not suitable to solve the problematic of global warming, because of absence of sanction mechanism and concrete measures. Our aim is to confirm/refute our hypothesis. During the writing we use analytic, deductive, descriptive, and comparative method.

The political and academic discussion on the global problem of climate change and its future implications have occurred mainly at the national and international level. However, communities and local governments can have a significant role in mitigating climate change by controlling greenhouse gas production at the local level. The Cities for Climate Protection (CCP) campaign sponsored by Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI) assists more than 800 municipalities all over the world to adopt climate change mitigation policies and integrate them into decision making. There are 176 Canadian municipalities involved in this campaign while other policies and programs on the national, provincial and local level are also available to implement activities to mitigate impact of climate change. The principle questions addressed by this research were: how Canadian municipalities contribute to greenhouse gas reduction, if and how communities benefit from those activities.
