Which of the following statements is most accurate? The Paris Agreement:选项:
A.is legally binding under international law. B.requires signatories to update their commitments to reduce emissions every five years. C.defines nationally determined contributions capturing mandatory efforts to reduce emissions.解释:
B is
correct because nationally determined contributions (NDCs) are at the heart of
the agreement and require every signatory (both developed and developing
nations) to determine, plan and report on its NDCs, with updates to commitments
every five years.
A is
incorrect because the Paris Agreement is not legally binding under
international law.
C is
incorrect because nationally determined contributions (NDCs) are at the heart
of the agreement. Instead of top-down imposed contributions, they capture
voluntary efforts by each country to reduce national emissions and adapt to the
impacts of climate change, and require every signatory (both developed and
developing nations) to determine, plan and report on its NDCs, with updates to
commitments every five years.
