Arrange the following events related to global environment in correct chronological order and choose the correct answer from the codes given below :

(i) Doha Conference
(ii) Paris Agreement
(iii) Kyoto Protocol
(iv) Earth Summit

  • A.(i), (iv), (iii), (ii)
  • B.(iv), (iii), (i), (ii)
  • C.(iii), (iv), (i), (ii)
  • D.(ii), (i), (iv), (iii)

Answer: B

The chronological order is (iv), (iii), (i), (ii).

  1. Earth Summit: the UN Conference on Environment and Development, Rio de Janeiro, 1992.
  2. Kyoto Protocol: adopted in 1997, setting binding emission targets for developed countries.
  3. Doha Conference: COP 18 in 2012, which adopted the Doha Amendment extending Kyoto to a second commitment period.
  4. Paris Agreement: adopted at COP 21 in December 2015.

The other options put Doha or Kyoto before the Earth Summit, or Paris first, which reverses the timeline.
