    Question

    Which of the following is the correct pledge set for the countries to limit their temperature by 2050 by a U.N. body?

    A.

    To reduce temperature by 1.5° C

    B.

    To reduce temperature by 2° C

    C.

    To reduce temperature by 1° C

    D.

    None of the above

    Correct option is D

    The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015 under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), does not aim to "reduce" global temperatures by a fixed amount. Instead, its goal is to limit the rise in global temperatures to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, while striving to limit the increase to 1.5°C.
    This target is critical because scientific evidence shows that keeping the rise below 1.5°C can prevent more catastrophic climate impacts. The agreement requires all signatory nations to commit to lowering their greenhouse gas emissions to meet this target by 2050, with progress reviewed every five years through Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
