Picture A: Deforestation is a significant environmental issue that occurs when forests are cut down for various reasons. This can result in a loss of plant and animal species, soil erosion, and climate change. Deforestation can negatively impact human communities that rely on forests for their livelihoods. It is important to take action to prevent deforestation and protect our forests for future generations.
Picture B: CO2 emissions are a significant environmental problem that occurs when large amounts of carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere from human activities. This contributes to the greenhouse effect and global warming, which can have serious consequences such as rising sea levels and more extreme weather events.

Read the article and choose the best title for it.

A. History of COPs
B. Main causes of global warming
C. Main goals of this year’s COP
In 1994, the UN decided to bring together world leaders for an annual event, known as COP or ‘Conference of Parties’, to discuss climate change. This year’s conference will review what has been achieved and discuss the key goals.
The first goal is to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5°C. This will require reducing global CO, emissions by 50 per cent by 2030, and by 2050 achieving a balance between the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere and those removed from it.
The second goal is to reduce the use of coal, whichis the dirtiest fuel and biggest source of planet-warming CO2 emissions. Countries will have to stop building new coal plants and switch to clean sources of energy.
The third goal is to end deforestation. Forests remove CO2 from the atmosphere and slow global warming. But when they are cut down or burnt, they release the carbon stored in the trees into the atmosphere as CO2. Stopping deforestation is , therefore, an effective solution to climate change.
The last key goal is to reduce methane emissions. Methane is a greenhouse gas that is more powerful than CO2 at warming the earth. It is responsible for nearly one-third of current warming from human activities. Methane comes from farming activities and landfill waste. The production and use of coal, oil, and natural gas also release methane.
This conference is very important because this is the best last chance we have to slow global warming. World leaders, climate experts, organisations, and national representatives will carefully discuss these goals and agree on how to make global progress on climate change.

1. Which of the following is not a COP’s key goal?
A. Stop cutting down forests.
B. Replace coal with cleaner sources of energy.
C. End methane emissions.

A. Global warming will be limited to 1.5°C.
B. Global CO, emissions will increase.
C. Countries will switch to clean energy.
3. Why is it important to reduce the use of coal?
A. Because it is easy to build coal plants.
B. Because coal is not as clean as gas.
C. Because it is responsible for a large part of the CO2 emissions.
4. How does deforestation contribute to global warming?
A. Trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
B. Trees release carbon into the atmosphere when they are cut down or burnt.
C. Forests trap heat and increase temperatures.
5. Why is reducing methane emissions a key goal?
A. Because its emissions result from farming activities and landfill waste.
B. Because methane’s warming power is stronger than that of CO2.
C. Because it is produced through human activities.

Gợi ý đáp án
There are several actions that individuals and governments can take to reduce global warming:
- Reduce energy consumption: One of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions is the burning of fossil fuels to produce energy. We can reduce energy consumption by turning off lights and appliances when not in use, using energy-efficient light bulbs and appliances, and reducing the use of air conditioning and heating.
- Use renewable energy sources: Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower emit little to no greenhouse gases. Governments can invest in renewable energy infrastructure, and individuals can install solar panels on their homes or participate in community solar programs.
- Reduce, reuse, and recycle: The production of goods and the disposal of waste are also sources of greenhouse gas emissions. By reducing the amount of waste we generate, reusing products as much as possible, and recycling materials, we can reduce emissions and conserve resources.
- Plant trees and conserve forests: Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, so planting trees and conserving forests can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- Support climate-friendly policies and actions: Governments can implement policies and actions that promote clean energy, reduce emissions, and protect the environment. As individuals, we can also support these policies and take action to reduce our own emissions.
