They found that the industry could reduce its emissions, but only if the livestock the UK produces, and the meat the nation【C2】______, drops by 30 per cent Farms must also optimise(最优化)their energy【C3】______by, for example, capturing carbon in animal waste.

The effect would not be limited to rich nations. The team found that Brazil could【C6】______the same health benefits. "We’re not saying go vegetarian, we’re saying reduce how much livestock produce you consume," says Dangour. The savings could be【C7】______higher if reduced death rates from cancer and obesity had been included, he adds.
Agronomist(农艺学家)Kenneth Cassman of the University of Nebraska warns that cutting production in one region can【C8】______it elsewhere, causing a rise in global emissions. "Reducing production of livestock products in a developed country like the UK does little to influence global【C9】______in production and consumption where most of the increase in demand between now and 2050 will come from【C10】______countries," he says.
A)developing E)developed I)boast M)reduction
B)even F)just J)achieve N)boost
C)trends G)considerable K)considerate O)efficiency
D)explored H)consumes L)offers

答案
