"The Aarhus Convention and Kiev Protocol instruments promote government accountability and transparency regarding pollutant releases, and uphold public access to information. The Aarhus Convention is the only legally binding global instrument on environmental democracy. It protects every person's right to live in an environment adequate to his or her health and well-being. The Kiev Protocol is the only legally binding international instrument on pollutant release and transfer registers. It is an open global treaty that regulates information on pollution, rather than pollution directly. Together, these instruments connect people and governments by empowering citizens to participate in environmental decision-making through access to information"--Plain language summary.
