B) Explanation:
GHGs are called radioactively active gases because they can absorb long wave infrared radiation.
The atmospheric lifetime of CFC ranges from 45 years to 260 years. While that of Methane is about 12 years.
A second commitment period 2013 - 2020. was agreed on in 2012, known as the Doha Amendment to the protocol. The Union Cabinet has given its approval to ratify the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol.
