Özet:

The need for sustainable use of natural resources, which is poor for a viable world, is becoming increasingly important every day. In this context, countries have begun to take more determined steps towards creating low-carbon economies for sustainable development. The flexibility mechanisms developed under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol to ensure sustainable development by reducing human-powered greenhouse gas emissions that lead to global climate change are an effective tool in carbon financing. In this study, it is intended to identify the importance of the issue by examining the flexibility mechanisms of the Kyoto Protocol in the framework of sustainability and the situation in Turkey. According to the analyses made, it has been understood that due to Turkey’s growing population and development efforts, greenhouse gas emissions have tended to increase over the years and that the Kyoto Protocol flexibility mechanisms have not been sufficiently exploited in order to combat global climate change in a cost-effective way integrated into the world.
