Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Concept — The Conference of the Parties (COP) is the supreme decision-making body of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The Convention entered into force in 1994 and the COP has met once every year since COP-1 at Berlin in 1995, so a session’s year follows the simple rule: year = 1994 + session number. Hosting rotates among the five United Nations regional groups, and each session is remembered by its host city and by the decision package named after that city.

Application — Date each listed session with the year rule, then recall the outcome package it produced:

  1. COP-11 → 1994 + 11 = 2005, hosted at Montreal, Canada; it also served as CMP-1, the first Meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol, which had entered into force in February 2005.

  2. COP-13 → 1994 + 13 = 2007, hosted at Bali, Indonesia; it adopted the Bali Road Map and the Bali Action Plan.

  3. COP-15 → 1994 + 15 = 2009, hosted at Copenhagen, Denmark; it produced the Copenhagen Accord.

  4. COP-19 → 1994 + 19 = 2013, hosted at Warsaw, Poland; it established the Warsaw International Mechanism for Loss and Damage.

Cross-check — Reading the four host cities in order of rising session number gives Montreal (2005) → Bali (2007) → Copenhagen (2009) → Warsaw (2013), a strictly increasing chronology, and each of the four locations is used once, so the pairing is a valid one-to-one matching.

Result — the sessions map to their host cities as follows:

Hence the matching is A – III, B – IV, C – I, D – II.
