Solution : The correct answer is (c) Mitigating climate change
The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty that was adopted in 1997 and entered into force in 2005 . Its primary objective is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to combat global climate change. The protocol sets binding targets for developed countries to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and various fluorinated gases. The agreement includes provisions for emissions trading, clean development mechanisms, and joint implementation to facilitate the achievement of emission reduction targets. The Kyoto Protocol is an important milestone in global efforts to address climate change and has been succeeded by the Paris Agreement, which further builds upon its principles and goals.
