"Momentum for Change : Climate Neutral Now" is an initiative launched by

A
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
B
The UNEP Secretariat
C
The UNFCCC Secretariat
Correct answer
D
The World Meteorological Organization

Explanation

The "Climate Neutral Now" initiative was launched by the UNFCCC Secretariat in 2015 to encourage individuals, companies, and governments to measure, reduce, and offset their greenhouse gas emissions to achieve a climate-neutral world. While the UNEP (Option B) is a tempting choice due to its broad environmental mandate, the UNFCCC is the specific body responsible for operationalizing international climate agreements and tracking carbon neutrality commitments. This question tests the core concept of identifying specific global initiatives and the international organizations responsible for implementing climate action frameworks.
