Which of the following statements is correct about Kyoto Protocol ?

(a) Kyoto Protocol was adopted in December 1995 and came into force on February 2007.
(b) Limit and reduce greenhouse gases emission in accordance with agreed individual targets.
(c) It is based on principle of common but differentiated responsibility and respective capabilities.

Find out correct option :

  • A.(a) only
  • B.(a) and (b) only
  • C.(b) and (c) only
  • D.(a), (b) and (c)

Answer: C

Statements (b) and (c) are correct, so the answer is (b) and (c) only.

Statement (a) is wrong on both dates: the Kyoto Protocol was adopted in December 1997 and came into force in February 2005.

Statement (b) is correct: the Protocol committed industrialised countries to limit and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions according to agreed individual targets. Statement (c) is correct: it follows the UNFCCC principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, placing the binding burden on developed countries. Every option including (a) is therefore wrong.
