The report introduces action that must be taken. As one of the report’s authors put it, “It’s now or never.” One of the most striking (引人注目的) parts of the new UN report is that in order to limit (限制) global warming to 1.5℃, global emissions (排放物) can’t go any higher after 2025, and must drop greatly by 2030. That gives governments just a few years to take strong action. The report says we are happy that we know what we have to do to avoid a climate disaster (灾难). Most of the green technologies needed for renewable power, such as wind, solar, and water power, are already there and getting cheaper and cheaper. The report adds that simply cutting pollution won’t be enough. The polluting gas carbon dioxide (CO2) must also be removed from the air and stored. Since trees have already done this, protecting natural areas and planting more trees will be an important part of the solution. For the first time in this report, the IPCC points out that people should do as these: not wasting food and eating less meat, walking or biking instead of driving, cutting out plane travel, and using less energy. One of the report’s main authors said, “We know what to do, we know how to do it, and now it’s up to us to take action.” 1. What’s the purpose of the 3, 000-page report on climate change? A.
