Answer 1

Correct answers (three):

- Getting wealthier nations to help fund developing nations.
- Using government regulations to make industries adopt solutions.
- Having policymakers act based on scientific evidence.

Brief rationale: The Montreal Protocol succeeded because it combined science-based policymaking, binding regulations/phase-outs for industry, and financial/technical support (Multilateral Fund) for developing countries — not by relying only on individual choices, waiting for tech alone, or forcing poorer nations.
