The question this prepares you for · CSE 2025 · Q34
Consider the following statements : Statement I : Article 6 of the Paris Agreement on climate change is frequently discussed in global discussions on sustainable development and climate change. Statement II : Article 6 of the Paris Agreement on climate change sets out the principles of carbon markets. Statement III : Article 6 of the Paris Agreement on climate change intends to promote inter-country non-market strategies to reach their climate targets. Which one of the following is correct in respect of the above statements?
Both Statement II and Statement III are correct and both of them explain Statement IBoth Statement II and Statement III are correct but only one of them explains Statement IOnly one of the Statements II and III is correct and that explains Statement INeither Statement II nor Statement III is correct
Why revise these together?
The target asks whether Article 6 of the Paris Agreement covers carbon markets (II) and non-market cooperative approaches (III). The 2023 carbon-markets question is directly load-bearing for the Article 6 market mechanism, and the 2016 Paris Agreement question builds the underlying treaty knowledge. The SDG source is the weakest link but is reasonably adjacent to the sustainable-development framing in Statement I.
