c. 20%
d. 55%
3- Which of the following is NOT a benefit from taking action to combat climate change?

d. Air quality
My answers are 1.b 2.a 3.c
yup
B
A
C
theses are the answers
1- d. Lowest (But hey, at least we can pretend we're doing better, right?)
2- a. 40% (Seems like winter had a chilly sense of humor that year)
3- c. Tax cuts (Unfortunately, climate change doesn't come with coupons)
1- To find the answer to the first question, we need to refer to the "Global average sea level rise by 2100: four scenarios" document. The document provides four different scenarios for sea level rise: Highest, Intermediate-high, Intermediate-low, and Lowest. We are looking for the scenario that corresponds to an expected 1 meter of total sea level rise. By comparing the different scenarios, we can determine which one fits this criterion.
2- To find the answer to the second question, we need to refer to the "U.S land area with unusually cold winter temperatures, 1911-2015" chart. The chart displays the percentage of land area affected by cold daily low averages in different years. We are specifically interested in the year 1980, so we can look at the data point for that year to determine the percentage.
3- To find the answer to the third question, we need to consider the benefits of taking action to combat climate change. We will evaluate each option to determine which one is not typically associated with these benefits. The options are: Public Health, Save economy money in medical costs, Tax cuts, and Air quality. By examining the potential benefits of addressing climate change, we can identify which one is not usually considered a direct result.
