Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Canada's production of greenhouse gases has actually increased since 1997. According to data from Environment and Climate Change Canada, emissions of greenhouse gases in Canada increased by 21% between 1990 and 2018. While there have been some efforts to reduce emissions, such as the implementation of a carbon pricing system, they have not been enough to offset the overall increase.
