Solution

The correct option is A Phasing out green house gases
The Kyoto Protocol is a multinational treaty under the aegis of United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change (UNFCCC) that was signed in 1997 to limit and gradually phase out the emission of the greenhouse gases. Its first commencement period was from 2008-2012 which required below 5% levels in GHGs emission. It is the Montreal Protocol that aims to phase out the ozone-depleting substances. Management of hazardous waste is under the aegis of the Stockholm Convention.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Phasing out greenhouse gases'.
