Câu hỏi: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or Don your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
We may love coffee but, according to a 2019 study, our morning cup could be on the brink. Scientists at Britain's Roya Botanic Gardens claim that conditions like deforestation, pest and pathogens could see 60 per cent of all wild coffee species perish within the next few decades. Climate change alone could cut land suitable for Arabica production in half by 2050.
Nespresso wants to make sure none of this comes to fruition. That's why they've created the AAA Sustainable Quality program to help farmers in prime coffee growing regions make their smallholdings more resilient to climate change. One of the ways it's doing so is with trees, which are key to the future of not only high-quality coffee but the valuable heritage of the cultures that grow it.
By 2020, Nespresso plans to plant five million trees in Colombia, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Mexico, and Nicaragua through insetting - an agroforestry practice that balances a business's carbon emissions by planting trees within its supply chain. The insetting process, implemented by forestry partner PUR Project, goes beyond accounting for a company's emissions to restore local ecosystems and help build sustainability.
Over decades, increasingly turbulent weather condition in these regions have caused their natural tree cover to disappear; taking soil-nourishing nutrients and wildlife that fortified the land with it. But, by planting the right kinds of saplings on their high-altitude mountain slopes, smallholders like Willy Solare's Aguilar of Jalapa, Guatemala are nurturing biodiversity back into full swing.
Since 2014, Don Willy has been working closely with Nespresso agronomists to understand how the trees he's planting secure his coffee's future by enriching the soil and protecting against extreme weather. But, as a lucrative additional benefit, they'll also provide Don Willy and his wife Maria an additional income from the fruit, timber and fuelwood they'll produce.
Passionate about preserving their region's rich coffee culture, forward thinking farmers like Don Willy are integral in encouraging other growers to adopt Nespresso's sustainable agroforestry practices. After all, it's these techniques that will help them ensure that their heritage, and the worlds' coffee supply, prospers for generations to come.
