Answer: C
“Momentum for Change: Climate Neutral Now” is an initiative launched by the UNFCCC Secretariat. The UNFCCC secretariat launched its Climate Neutral Now initiative in 2015. The following year, the secretariat launched a new pillar under its Momentum for Change initiative focused on Climate Neutral Now, as part of larger efforts to showcase successful climate action around the world. Climate neutrality is a three-step process, which requires individuals, companies, and governments to measure their climate footprint, reduce their emissions as much as possible, and offset what they cannot reduce with UN-certified emission reductions.
