Wildfires are more and more uncontrollable. ----- Nội dung dịch tự động từ ảnh ----- Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of question. the Climate change has already increased the risk of wildfire globally, according to a new review of research that suggests the weather conditions that led to the Australian wildfires will become more common in future. In light of the ongoing wildfire crisis in Australia, Richard Betts at the UK Met Office in Exeter and his colleagues reviewed 57 peer-reviewed studies about the link between climate change and wildfire risk. All of them found that climate change increases the frequency or severity of fire favorable weather conditions. The review found that fire weather seasons have lengthened globally between 1979 and 2013. Fire weather generally involves hot temperatures, low humidity, low rainfall in the preceding days and weeks, and windy conditions. Climate models also suggest that more extreme conditions and longer fire seasons come as a result of climate change, rather than fluctuations due to natural variation, the review reported. The recent extreme weather in Australia - 2019 was both its hottest and driest year on record will become the "new normal" if the world continues a trajectory of warming close to 3°C said Betts at a press briefing on Monday. Under Met Office modelling of 2°C of global warming, south-eastern Australia is predicted to experience an extra 20 to 30 days per year of fire conditions rated as "severe" or worse on the McArthur Forest Fire Danger Index, said Betts. In severe fire conditions, fires that start may become uncontrollable. In the worst conditions, which have been seen in Australia this wildfire season and are rated "catastrophic", fires cannot be controlled and pose a threat to life and property. Limiting climate change to well below 2°C in line with the Paris climate deal is key to lowering future fire risks, the review concluded.
