1. Read the following passage carefully and answer the following questions:
Climate change will have serious implications as numerous adverse impacts are expected
in terms of access to clean water, food and ecosystem resources. By 2020, it is feared that
in some African countries yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to
50%. Climate change is also likely to lead to some irreversible impacts on biodiversity.
However, it is within the reach of human society to meet these threats. We have to adapt
to climate change. It requires investment in storm protection and water supply
infrastructures as well as community health services. Bringing changes in lifestyle is an
important part of mitigation measures. Greater cooperative efforts are required by both
developed and developing nations to stop emission of greenhouse gases. The youth of
today have a huge responsibility towards creating a bright future and they obviously have
a stake in it. They must pursue knowledge by which economic progress can take place
without changing the environment.
