UNSTOPPABLE GLOBAL WARMING

The UN climate report warns of inevitable climate changes due to human activity, highlighting temperature rises and extreme weather. It confirms the unequivocal warming of the climate system, evidenced by rising sea levels and melting ice. Despite potential radical changes, global warming effects will persist for centuries. Environmentalists urge immediate action, as the window to mitigate the worst consequences is closing. However, countries like the US and China resist mandatory emission cuts, fearing economic impacts.

What evidence does the UN climate report provide to support the claim of climate system warming?

• Increased volcanic activity

• Rising air and ocean temperatures

• Decreased solar radiation

• Stable sea levels

Why will the effects of global warming be felt for centuries, according to the report?

• Because of the rapid decrease in greenhouse gases

• Due to the long-term nature of climate processes and feedbacks

• Due to the short-term nature of climate changes

• Because of the immediate impact of human activities

What is one of the potential consequences of global warming mentioned in the report?

• Droughts and floods

• Increased snowfall

• Decreased ocean levels

• Stable weather patterns

What do environmentalists emphasize about the timing of actions against global warming?

• Action can be delayed for a decade

• No action is necessary

• Immediate action is crucial

• There is plenty of time to act

Why are some countries hesitant to commit to mandatory emission cuts?

• Fear of technological advancements

• Concerns about economic growth

• Lack of scientific evidence

• Political instability
