Vietnam Records Highest Ever Temperature Of 44.1c
Vietnam has reported a record-high temperature of 44.1C (111.38F), as weather experts and authorities told
the population to remain indoors during the hottest parts of the day. Scientists have said global warming is
aggravating adverse weather. Neighboring countries registered record temperatures during a heatwave in
Asia in April. Vietnam’s record was measured indoors at Hoi Xuan station in northern Thanh Hoa province on
Saturday, the National Centre for Hydro Meteorological Forecasting said, breaking the 2019 record of 43.4C.
Nguyen Thi Lan, a farmer, said temperatures in the central city of Danang had forced workers to start their
days earlier than ever. “We have had to finish before 10am to avoid the heat,” she said. Vietnam’s weather
varies from north to south, but the country as a whole is now entering its hottest summer months. “This is a
worrying record in the context of climate change and global warming,” Nguyen Ngoc Huy, a climate change
expert, said from the capital, Hanoi. “I believe this record will be repeated many times. It confirms that
extreme climate models are being proven to be true.” Danang officials have asked Vietnam’s industry and
electricity ministries to “cooperate to effectively deal with the heat, possible drought and lack of water,”
according to state media. Officials have also told the city’s water supply company to ensure there are
adequate supplies of water for domestic use. On Saturday, Hanoi city centre was almost empty at midday as
many people remained indoors to avoid the sun..

TO ALL INDIVIDUALS ABOUT THE ISSUE OF GLOBAL WARMING?

23. 23
DO YOU THINK THIS ARTICLE PROVIDES SUFFICIENT AWARENESS
TO ALL INDIVIDUALS ABOUT THE ISSUE OF GLOBAL WARMING?
Yes, the article can raise awareness among individuals by
highlighting the record-breaking temperature in Vietnam
and its connection to global warming, providing examples
and quotes from experts and locals.
No, the article may not be enough to raise awareness
among all people as it primarily focuses on the local
context and lacks comprehensive information about the
broader causes and consequences of global warming.

QUESTION 2
ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF TAKING IMMEDIATE ACTION TO
ADDRESS THE INCREASING TEMPERATURES HAPPENING
WORLDWIDE?

ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF TAKING IMMEDIATE ACTION TO ADDRESS
THE INCREASING TEMPERATURES HAPPENING WORLDWIDE?

26. 26
ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF TAKING IMMEDIATE ACTION TO ADDRESS
THE INCREASING TEMPERATURES HAPPENING WORLDWIDE?
Yes, I am in favor of taking immediate action to address
the increasing temperatures happening worldwide. It is
not only a problem in Vietnam but a global issue that
requires urgent attention. Rising temperatures have far-
reaching consequences on ecosystems, weather
patterns, and human livelihoods
No, I am not in favor taking immediate action to address
the increasing temperatures happening worldwide. While
it is undeniable that temperatures are rising globally, I
believe that the measures taken should be carefully
evaluated to ensure they are effective and balanced.

QUESTION 3

INCREASE IN TEMPERATURE IN VIETNAM?

28. 28
DO YOU THINK THERE ARE ANY ADVANTAGES TO THE INCREASE
IN TEMPERATURE IN VIETNAM?

29. 29
DO YOU THINK THERE ARE ANY ADVANTAGES TO THE INCREASE
IN TEMPERATURE IN VIETNAM?
Yes, there are advantages to the increase in temperature in
Vietnam. The higher temperatures can promote the use of
renewable energy sources like solar panels. With more
sunlight available, solar energy generation becomes more
efficient and cost-effective.
No, I don't agree that there are significant advantages to
the increase in temperature in Vietnam. The negative
impacts of rising temperatures, such as heatwaves, water
scarcity, and damage to ecosystems, far outweigh any
potential benefits. While solar energy may become more
accessible, it does not outweigh the overall detrimental
effects on the environment, human health, and the
economy.
