Explanation
The Kyoto Protocol set binding cuts for greenhouse gases, so it pairs with global warming.
The Montreal Protocol phased out ozone-destroying chemicals, so it pairs with ozone depletion.
The Rio Summit produced the biodiversity convention, so it pairs with biodiversity conservation.
The Paris Agreement period saw the launch of the solar grouping, so it pairs with the Solar Alliance.
Kyoto and Paris both address climate warming, while Montreal targets the ozone shield.
The Rio Earth Summit of 1992 also gave rise to the framework convention on climate change.
