Solution

The correct option is D 2100
The Amendment to Montreal Protocol 1987 came into force on 1 January 2019 where the countries promised to reduce the use of HydroFluoroCarbons (HFCs) which cause Global Warming because of the presence of Greenhouse Gases which traps heat in the Earth's Surface. A proposed phasedown of HFCs was hence projected to avoid up to 0.5C of warming by 2100. HFCs are greatly produced by Developed Countries.
