Hướng dẫn giải

Sophie: Hey John, have you heard about the different human activities that contribute to global warming?

John: Yeah, I have heard about some of them, like cutting down forests and burning fossil fuels.

Sophie: That’s right. Cutting down or burning forests releases carbon dioxide, but burning coal, oil, and gas also contribute to global warming. When fossil fuels are burnt, they release greenhouse gases that trap heat in the atmosphere.

John: That’s really interesting. I didn’t know that. Are there any other human activities that contribute to global warming?

Sophie: Yes, there are. For example, raising farm animals like goats, sheep, and cows also contributes to global warming. These animals produce a lot of methane, which is responsible for nearly one-third of current global warming.

John: Wow, I had no idea that raising farm animals had such a big impact on the environment. What about the impact of cutting down forests for farming?

Sophie: That’s a good point. Cutting down forests to make space for farm animals also contributes to global warming. Forests store carbon in the trees and soil, and help reduce the global temperature. When forests are cut down, the carbon is released into the atmosphere, which contributes to global warming.

John: Thanks for sharing all this information with me, Sophie. It’s really eye-opening to learn about the different human activities that contribute to global warming.

Group discussion:

Member 1: In my opinion, burning fossil fuels is the human activity that contributes the most to global warming. When we burn coal, oil, and gas, they release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which traps heat and leads to global warming.

Member 2: I agree that burning fossil fuels is a major contributor to global warming, but I think that raising farm animals is just as significant. The methane produced by these animals is responsible for nearly one-third of current global warming.

Member 3: I think cutting down or burning forests is the most serious problem. Deforestation leads to more carbon dioxide in the air, and forests store carbon in the trees and soil, which helps reduce global temperature. When forests are cut down, the carbon is released into the atmosphere, which contributes to global warming.

Member 4: I think all these activities are significant contributors to global warming, but I believe that burning fossil fuels is the most damaging. It not only releases carbon dioxide but also other harmful pollutants that affect air quality and human health.

Group Conclusion:

After considering each member's opinion, the group has concluded that burning fossil fuels is the human activity that contributes the most to global warming. However, they acknowledge that other activities such as raising farm animals and deforestation are also significant contributors to global warming and need to be addressed.
