The pledge taken by large number of nations including India at the Paris climate summit held in the year 2016 is to keep planetary warming by the year 2100 below :
Answer: B
The pledge is to keep warming below 2°C.
The Paris Agreement, adopted at COP21 in December 2015 and signed by India and other countries in 2016, commits nations to hold the rise in global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5°C.
3.5°C and 5°C are the kind of warming expected without strong action, not the target, and 2.1°C is not a figure in the agreement.
