每日一翻:Clock Ticking On Climate Change Prevention

Climate change is real. Carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels and clearing forests, among other human activities, is to blame. And more and more of that global warming pollution is being dumped in the atmosphere each year.
气候在改变这是事实。这一切归咎于化石燃料的燃烧所产生的二氧化碳、森林的砍伐等人类活动。每年越来越多的导致全球变暖的污染物被排放到大气中。
So says the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change‘s new synthesis report released on November 2. The synthesis reduces thousands of pages of scientific knowledge to their essence. That essence, however, has hardly changed since the last synthesis report in 2007.
联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会在11月2日发布的新的综合报告中如此说。报告减少了近千页介绍气候变化本质的科学知识。然而,自2007年以来,报告中被省略的部分几乎就没有改变过。
What has changed is the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which have now touched 400 parts-per-million. Pollution in the first decade of the 21st century grew twice as fast as it did in the last few decades of the 20th century. The resulting global warming poses risks ranging from rising sea levels that drown inhabited coasts to crop failures from stronger heat waves and drought.
发生变化的是大气中温室气体的浓度,现在已经上升到了百万分之400。21世纪的第一个十年污染的增长速度是20世纪最后几十年的两倍。由此导致的全球变暖必然会导致海平面的上升、沿海地区被淹没以及热浪和干旱加剧导致的作物大幅减产。
The IPCC has now offered a budget for how much pollution people can add to the atmosphere without too much climate change. Unfortunately, humanity has already used more than half of that budget.
政府间气候变化专门委员会为人们向大气中排放多少污染物而不会太影响气候变化作了一个预算。不幸的是,人们已经使用了一半多的预算。
The world’s nations are meeting in Lima this year in hopes of hammering out a global deal to combat climate change to be agreed upon in Paris in 2015. The new report is a reminder to world leaders that the stakes, like the seas, are high.
世界各国今年将在秘鲁首都利马召开会议,希望制定出一项全球性的政策来对抗气候变化,并在2015年在巴黎确立。这份报告意在提醒全世界领导人气候变化的重要性。
