Question: Do you think climate change is affecting weather patterns in your country?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: Yes, I think climate change is affecting weather patterns in my country, as it is causing more frequent and severe weather events, such as heatwaves, droughts, floods, or storms.

Reason: Climate change is a global phenomenon that results from human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, or industrialization, and can have profound and lasting effects on the natural environment, social systems, and economic development.

Example: For instance, in my country, there has been a significant increase in extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, or wildfires, which have caused extensive damage to infrastructure, crops, and homes, and have disrupted the lives of millions of people.

Alternative: However, some people may dispute the scientific consensus on climate change, or may argue that natural variability, rather than human activities, is responsible for the observed changes in weather patterns.
