Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → A - II, B - I, C - III, D - IV
The Kyoto Protocol (A - II), 1997, set binding greenhouse gas reduction targets for developed countries under the UNFCCC, while the Montreal Protocol (B - I), 1987, phased out the production and use of ozone depleting substances.
The Basel Convention (C - III), 1989, regulates the transboundary movement of hazardous waste, and the Bamako Convention (D - IV), 1991, goes further for Africa by banning the import of any hazardous waste into the continent.
