Many scientists feel that application of Geoengineering would not reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the air.
Explanation:
Geoengineering or climate engineering includes a wide range of technological applications that are aimed to counter climate change and global warming.
These include solar geoengineering for blocking the sunlight before it warms the earth’s surface, ocean fertilization, artificial trees etc. The main drawback that scientists fear is the usage of various chemicals because of which these technologies would not reduce greenhouse gas.
Further imposing tax regulations or simply signing climate protocols would not reduce greenhouse gases. They are just for gaining emission incentives and people will easily evade regulations.
The main focus should be on cutting down anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gases. Hence all the industries, technologies, and the people must pledge work towards reducing the greenhouse gases

Answer:
Most early cities developed in southern Mesopotamia because it had more fertile land.
Explanation:
A is not correct because Mesopotamia was poor in natural resources, it actually had just two primary ones, but those two were the most important at that time.
B is correct because the abundance of fertile land along the Tigris and Euphrates enabled the developement of societies, as the people were able to produce much more food than they needed and used it for trade to obtain other goods.
C is not correct because civilization was only able to develop because of the abundance of fertile land and water.
D is not correct because the natural borders don't provide conditions for the development of civilization, but just make it easier as they eliminate the threat of invasion.
The answer is C. Hope this helps
