Correct Answer: Climate change


Solution : The correct answer is (D) Climate change

The Paris Agreement is a global initiative adopted in 2015 under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It seeks to combat climate change and its impacts by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing global efforts to adapt to the changing climate.

The main objective of the Paris Agreement is to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius. It sets out a framework for countries to submit their national climate action plans, known as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), outlining their efforts to reduce emissions and adapt to climate change.

The agreement emphasizes international cooperation, financial support for developing countries, technology transfer, and capacity-building to enable effective climate action. It also recognizes the importance of promoting sustainable development, ensuring transparency and accountability, and fostering resilience to climate impacts.
