World heading into ‘uncharted territory of destruction’,
says climate report
The world’s chances of avoiding the worst ravages of climate breakdown are diminishing rapidly, as we enter “uncharted
territory of destruction” through our failure to cut greenhouse gas emissions and take the actions needed to stave off
catastrophe, leading scientists have said.
Despite intensifying warnings in recent years, governments and businesses have not been changing fast enough, according to
the United in Science report published on Tuesday. The consequences are already being seen in increasingly extreme weather
around the world, and we are in danger of provoking “tipping points” in the climate system that will mean more rapid and in
some cases irreversible shifts.
Recent flooding in Pakistan, which has covered a third of the country in water, is the latest example of extreme weather that is
devastating swathes of the globe. The heatwave across Europe including the UK this summer, prolonged drought in China, a
megadrought in the US and near-famine conditions in parts of Africa also reflect increasingly prevalent extremes of weather.
The secretary general of the United Nations, António Guterres, said: “There is nothing natural about the new scale of these
disasters. They are the price of humanity’s fossil fuel addiction. This year’s United in Science report shows climate impacts
heading into uncharted territory of destruction.”

COMPANIES THAT USE FOSSIL BURNING?

23. 23
DO YOU AGREE THAT THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BAN THE
COMPANIES THAT USE FOSSIL BURNING?
Yes, I agree, because it is the source of greenhouse
effect that destroys our atmosphere.
No, I don’t agree because some of the important
products really require burning fossils. I think, the
companies should think of ways to filter the waste
smoke and remove its toxic content.

29. 29
DO YOU AGREE THAT ALL NATIONS MUST ACT THROUGH
PLANTING TREES AND STOP USING THE LANDS FOR BUILDING
CONDOMINIUMS AND HOUSES?
Yes, I agree, because it destroys the nature by cutting
trees and the habitat of the animals. On the bright side, it
will clean the air and block the smoke from the factory
No, I don’t agree, this time what we need is just to filter
the smoke for the factory to make it clean. I also believe
that having condominiums and houses can save the
people from the extreme floods.
