This statement is false. The article claims that there will be "increasing discounts and promotions this year" with "Free-shipping and "buy one get one free" offers (being) expected to increase BEFORE Christmas". This means that retail stores will probably make reductions before (not after) Christmas.
This statement is false. According to the text, Christmas sales account for as much as 40% of a retail store’s annual revenue. A retail store's "annual revenue" is the money received from sales during one year. Therefore, at 40%, LESS than half of retail stores annual sales are made at Christmas.
This statement is true. The article states, "With energy prices high, consumers are also reluctant to make costly trips to the shopping mall". "Energy prices" is another way of saying the cost of fuel (or petrol) for vehicles. Because fuel prices are high, people are reluctant to spend money on petrol in order to travel to retail stores.
This statement is true. We read in the second paragraph that "Sales forecasts are gloomy. A lot of this is due to anxiety over the downturn in the economy and its effect on consumer spending". A "downturn" is a decrease in economic activity; "anxiety" is the state of being worried that something bad is going to happen. Because consumers are anxious about the economy, they are less inclined to spend money.

1 Environmentalists: This is the term we were looking for here! An "environmentalist" is someone who feels passionately about, and campaigns for, the protection of the environment.
2 greenhouse: "Greenhouse" is the right choice. "Greenhouse gases" contribute to "the greenhouse effect", which means "global warming". In another context, a "greenhouse" is a glass building which stays very warm, so we can even grow tomatoes in England!
3 fossil fuels: "Fossil fuels" is the right answer here. "Fossil fuels" are hydrocarbon deposits which we use as fuel for cars, engines, fires, cooking, etc. Fossil fuels are non-renewable, we are using them up more quickly than they are being created, and they produce large quantities of CO2 when burned. This is a bad thing!
