Which of the following is wrong sentence related to Koyto Protocol ?

  • A.Koyto Protocol was adopted in 1997
  • B.The first commitment period of this Protocol ended in 2012
  • C.The Protocol is about the reduction of Greenhouse gases
  • D.The second commitment period of the Protocol will end in 2030

Answer: D

The wrong statement is that the second commitment period will end in 2030.

The Kyoto Protocol (printed 'Koyto') was adopted in December 1997 at COP3 in Kyoto and entered into force in 2005. Its first commitment period ran from 2008 to 2012. The Doha Amendment of 2012 set a second commitment period from 2013 to 2020, so it ended in 2020, not 2030.

The other three statements are correct: adoption in 1997, the end of the first period in 2012, and the Protocol's purpose, which is binding reductions of greenhouse gas emissions by developed countries. The year 2030 belongs to the targets countries set under the Paris Agreement.
