Please extend the underline to the word "signify" in the question.
Meaning :
K Protocol, x & y, signify the coperation of authors;
Evaluate the setence:

X & Y - should be parallel.
A) and important as a vehicle by which to gain international consensus on stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions as well
S-V error
(B) and important as an important vehicle for gaining international consensus on stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions, signifies
Looks error free
(C) and also a vehicle of gaining important international consensus on the stabilization of greenhouse emissions is signifying
and + also - error
(D) an important vehicle in international consensus on stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions and have signified
Have signified - S-V error

First, lets identify all incorrect options-
A is wrong because of use of word signify (Kyoto Protcoal is singular)
C is wrong because it suggests that Kyoto Protocal is performing an action which is not possible (is signifying)
D is wrong because the sentence reads 'The Kyoto Protocol, a politically divisive environmental treaty an important vehicle in international consensus on stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions and have signified'. Here the use of an does not make sense. Also the use of have signified is incorrect.
E is wrong because the sentence reads 'The Kyoto Protocol, a politically divisive environmental treaty and as international consensus important to stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions too, signifies' Here again, use of as does not make sense.
We are left with B
The sentence 'The Kyoto Protocol, a politically divisive environmental treaty and important as an important vehicle for gaining international consensus on stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions, signifies' is error free
Ans:B
