    Solution

    I- The word ‘intend’ is a verb. This is wrong here. A noun, ‘intention’ should be the correct word to be used here. Over 120 countries have already announced their intention to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. II- In this sentence, the noun ‘difference’ should be changed into the verb ‘differentiate’. Many argue that “net zero” is not equitable and fair as it does not differentiate between developing and developed countries in sharing the burden of mitigation. III and IV are correct.
