Third Schedule: Application To what does the Act apply? Reg (1) These Regulations shall not apply to any air pollutant emitted from an internal combustion engine in a truck, car, bus, train, ship, airplane or any other mode of transportation. Existing facility/source: any air polluting facility or air pollutant source which were constructed, in operation, installed, or in use, in Jamaica on or before the appointed day; New facility/source: any air polluting facility or air pollutant source which commenced construction or operation or was installed in Jamaica after the appointed day; REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 6

7 Legislative Framework: Other Relevant Treaties United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), New York, 1992 Date of Accession - January 6, 1995 The UNFCCC objective is to "stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system" Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Kyoto, 1997 Date of Accession - June 28, 1999 The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty which extends the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) that commits State Parties to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, based on the scientific consensus that (a) global warming is occurring and (b) it is extremely likely that human-made CO 2 emissions have predominantly caused it.
