        The changes to Earth’s natural patterns reveal an interconnected web of ecological systems that are undergoing profound changes beyond what many researchers have predicted. Scientists say the culprit is clear: Ever since the Industrial Revolution, the relentless burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas has been adding heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere, leading to a sharp rise in global temperatures. The hottest year in recorded history was 2024, and each of the 10 warmest years on record have come in the past decade.

        Since 1997, when nations agreed to limit planet-warming gases as part of the landmark Kyoto Protocol, humanity has released more greenhouse gases than in all prior history. The temperature rise associated with the growing volume of heattrapping gas has kicked in, and it is continuing to rise. And at the same time, the ability of the planet’s natural systems to absorb planet-warming gases like carbon dioxide appears to be diminishing.

The New York Times – Change Beyond Predictions

❌ ERRADO.

O item afirma que "muitos cientistas previram exatamente todas as mudanças nos sistemas ecológicos da Terra exatamente como estão acontecendo". O texto, porém, diz o contrário: as mudanças estão ocorrendo "além do que muitos pesquisadores previram" ("beyond what many researchers have predicted"). A palavra "beyond" indica que as alterações superam as previsões, não as confirmam.

Trecho decisivo do texto:

The changes to Earth’s natural patterns reveal an interconnected web of ecological systems that are undergoing profound changes beyond what many researchers have predicted.

Portanto, a afirmativa é falsa.

Gabarito: E (Errado).
