The correct answer is: B. Climate change.
The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty that sets binding targets for 37 industrialized countries and the European community for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The treaty was adopted at the third session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 3) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Kyoto, Japan, on 11 December 1997 and entered into force on 16 February 2005.
The Kyoto Protocol’s first commitment period started in 2008 and ended in 2012. The second commitment period started in 2013 and ended in 2020. The third commitment period is currently under negotiation.
The Kyoto Protocol is the first international treaty to set binding targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The treaty has been successful in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from industrialized countries. However, the treaty has not been successful in reducing global greenhouse gas emissions.
Species conservation is the practice of protecting species of plants and animals from extinction. Wetland conservation is the practice of protecting wetlands from degradation. Medicinal plants are plants that are used to make medicines.
Species conservation, wetland conservation, and medicinal plants are all important issues, but they are not directly related to the Kyoto Protocol.
