Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

India, as part of its commitment to global environmental sustainability and combatting climate change, was involved in the Paris Agreement in 2024. The Paris Agreement is an international treaty that came into effect in 2016, aiming to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius, with efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees. This agreement allows countries to submit their climate action plans voluntarily and update them every five years to enhance ambition. Given the options, the Paris Agreement is the correct and relevant choice for India's involvement in 2024. The other options, such as the Kyoto Protocol, Montreal Protocol, and Copenhagen Accord, either address different aspects of environmental issues or are older initiatives not central to India's climate focus in 2024.
