问题 Questions  refer to the following article.  President Barack Obama has issued his call to put global warming at the top of the international agenda,pledging to push for co-ordinated action by the world’s biggest countries to tackle the problem of climate change.  In the speech, the US president on Tuesday laid out a three-part plan to deal with climate change using the power of his office.  He outlined a strategy to cut the US’s carbon pollution by reducing emissions from coal-fired power plants;to prepare the US for the impact of climate change,such as the super storm that ravaged the New Jersey coastline last year, and to lead the world by example in combating changing climate.  “While no single step can reverse the effects of climate change, the president believes we have a moral obligation to our kids to leave them a planet that’s not polluted and damaged,” a White House official said.  The coal industry said the proposals could prove devastating—shares in US coal mining companies have been falling sharply—but Mr. Obama’s speech was being watched closely around the World.  In Europe, where the Eurozone crisis has pushed the climate change agenda firmly into the political background, environmental campaigners said they hoped Mr. Obama’s speech would puncture arguments tackling global warming as bad for the economy. “If you have got the US and China moving, then the argument that the EU is going it alone clearly doesn’t stand up to scrutiny anymore,”said Tom Brookes of the European Climate Foundation.  The president said he would seek to expand new and existing international initiatives, including bilateral initiatives with China, India and other big emissions countries.The Eurozone crisis has caused that(  ).A.People believed that dealing with environmental problems is bad for the economyB.There has been more environmental campaigners discussing about the issueC.The climate change agenda was influenced by politicsD.The EU was going along with US and China
