Montreal Protocol is related to :
Answer: B
The Montreal Protocol is about reducing ozone depleting substances.
Signed in 1987 under the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer, it phases out the production and consumption of chlorofluorocarbons, halons, carbon tetrachloride, methyl chloroform and later HCFCs and methyl bromide. It is ratified by every country and is credited with the slow recovery of the ozone layer.
Greenhouse gas reduction and climate change are the subject of the UNFCCC, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. Hazardous waste is the subject of the Basel Convention. The 2016 Kigali Amendment added HFCs, which are greenhouse gases, but the Protocol's purpose remains the protection of the ozone layer.
