The passage given below is followed by four alternate summaries. Choose the option that best captures the essence of the passage.Climate change and racism are two of the biggest challenges of the 21st Century. They are also strongly intertwined. There is a stark divide between who has caused climate change and who is suffering its effects. People of colour across the Global South are those who will be most affected by the climate crisis, even though their carbon footprints are generally very low. Similar racial divides exist within nations too, due to profound structural inequalities laid down by a long legacy of unequal power relationships. For some, it can be disconcerting to hear terms such as "racism" and "white supremacy" used in discussions about climate change. Climate change is often understood as an environmental issue, one that we are all in together, and therefore not something that could be in any way construed as racist.Climate change is a significant challenge that disproportionately affects people of color in the Global South due to their low carbon footprints and long-standing structural inequalities.The 21st Century is marked by climate change and racism, which are intertwined, with climate change impacting people of color the most due to what is seen as an environmental issue.Climate change and racism, crucial challenges of the 21st Century, are connected; people of color, in the Global South, bear the brunt of climate change despite their minimal contribution to it.Discussions on climate change involving racism and white supremacy are unsettling, as climate change is often viewed as a universal environmental issue, not linked to racial inequalities.
