Explanation:

The CoP does not set binding targets. Instead each country has to set its own INDC ( Intended Nationally Determined Contribution) highlighting mitigation efforts. However it is to be monitored to ensure compliance.
The students should make a note that the deal has come into force. (it was to come into force when signed and ratified by atleast 55 countries having 55% share of global emmissions)
