全球變熱之-哥本哈根峰會(huì)應(yīng)對(duì)全球天氣變熱（雙語(yǔ)）聯(lián)合國(guó)官員、天氣專家、環(huán)?；顒?dòng)人士和來(lái)自60多個(gè)國(guó)家的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人12月7日開始齊聚哥本哈根參加為期兩周的天氣變化峰會(huì)。UN officials, climate experts, environmental activists, and more than 60 world leaders gather in Copenhagen for a two-week conference on climate change to begin December 7. Their aim is to achieve a legally binding agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions. But there are questions about how much can be achieved and how any agreement would be implemented.聯(lián)合國(guó)官員、天氣專家、環(huán)?；顒?dòng)人士和來(lái)自60多個(gè)國(guó)家的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人12月7日開始齊聚哥本哈根參加為期兩周的天氣變化峰會(huì)。會(huì)議宗旨是為削減溫室氣體排放取得一項(xiàng)具有法律約束性的協(xié)議書。不過現(xiàn)在的題目是，會(huì)議到底能取得多少成果？達(dá)成的任何協(xié)議將如何得到執(zhí)行？We need to have a legally binding agreement to reduce carbon emission in developed countries as quickly as possible, he urged. And what we need along with that is a significant commitment for funding from the developed countries to the developing countries - to fund technology transfer, to fund forest protection and also to fund adaptation to climate change, that were already committed to, he said.他說：“為了要發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家盡快削減二氧化碳排放，我們需要一個(gè)有約束力的協(xié)議書。除此之外，我們還需要發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家為發(fā)展中國(guó)家做出有意義的承諾，為發(fā)展中國(guó)家提供資金，用于技術(shù)轉(zhuǎn)讓、森林保護(hù)和已經(jīng)用于對(duì)應(yīng)天氣變化的一些措施。”The goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions blamed for heating up the atmosphere. And, since industrialized nations were the greatest polluters for years, they, more than others, are under pressure to cut emissions.大氣溫度的升高被回咎于溫室氣體的排放，而他們的目標(biāo)就是減排。由于產(chǎn)業(yè)化國(guó)家多年來(lái)曾經(jīng)是最大的污染者，現(xiàn)在他們比其他國(guó)家承受更大的減排壓力。But, many say developing countries also need to do more. They in turn want financial help to make the transition.但是也有很多人以為，發(fā)展中國(guó)家也需要采取過多行動(dòng)。他們?yōu)槠滢D(zhuǎn)型則?？传@得財(cái)政援助。Both need to work together, says Nick Nuttall, spokesman for the UN Environment Program.聯(lián)合國(guó)環(huán)境規(guī)劃署發(fā)言人尼克納托爾說，發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家與發(fā)展中國(guó)家需要合作：What were looking for in Copenhagen is a global partnership between the North and the South, between the developed, industrialized nations and the rapidly developing ones with the other developing nations also a part of that cooperative partnership deal, which is the only way were going to deal with this, he said.“我們希看，哥本哈根峰會(huì)開成一個(gè)富裕國(guó)家和貧窮國(guó)家、發(fā)達(dá)的產(chǎn)業(yè)化國(guó)家與正在迅速發(fā)展的國(guó)家和其他發(fā)展中國(guó)家結(jié)成國(guó)際伙伴的會(huì)議，他們也是合作伙伴協(xié)議的一部分，這是我們應(yīng)對(duì)天氣變化的唯一途徑?！盡ost scientists say human activity is behind global warming and that its up to humans to make changes to stem the tide.大多數(shù)科學(xué)家以為，人類活動(dòng)是地球變熱的主因，因此需要人類做出改變，來(lái)扭轉(zhuǎn)地球變熱的趨勢(shì)。But, politics and economics get in the way, says Charlie Kronick of Greenpeace.但是綠色和平的查理克羅尼克以為，政治和經(jīng)濟(jì)因素成為障礙。Governments in general and politicians all over the world are looking at a price tag thats attached to their term of office, he said. They always forget, and its rarely emphasized in public, that its better to spend the money now than in the future.

It expires in 2012. Some say Kyoto was doomed from the start because the United States never signed on.預(yù)計(jì)哥本哈根天氣變化峰會(huì)將產(chǎn)生一項(xiàng)議定書，以延續(xù)1997年的京都議定書。受國(guó)際社會(huì)認(rèn)可的京都議定書減排協(xié)議將于2012年期滿。一些人士以為，由于美國(guó)沒有在京都議定書上簽字，京都議定書從一開始就注定失敗。But, President Obama will come to Copenhagen. And the United States has put emission cut proposals on the table.不過，這次，美國(guó)總統(tǒng)奧巴馬將出席哥本哈根天氣變化峰會(huì)，而且美國(guó)已經(jīng)明確公布它的減排目標(biāo)。The conference is the moment of truth, says Nick Nuttall of the UN.聯(lián)合國(guó)環(huán)境規(guī)劃署的納托爾說，哥本哈根會(huì)議才是真正的考驗(yàn)時(shí)刻：來(lái)源：考試大的美女編輯們This is the point at which governments really have to decide if theyre serious about climate and if
