联合国生物多样性大会

在昆明召开

为全球合作开辟新前景

The COP15 meeting in Kunming paves the way for global cooperation.

这个会开得太及时了!

在全球气候变化的压力下

物种消失速度加快

Just in time, too! Under pressure from climate change, species are disappearing faster than ever.

受害最深的北极熊

甚至找不到一块栖身的浮冰

Victims, such as polar bears, can even hardly find a piece of floating ice.

要遏制气候变化

只有减排与种树两种办法

To curb the trend, carbon emissions must be cut while forestation encouraged.

但现实是

在欧亚大陆另一端的欧洲

树木正被大面积砍伐

But, trees are being cut in Europe,

在大洋彼岸的美国

化石燃料用量则居高不下

while the US still uses a high percentage of fossil fuel.

发达国家天天要求中国减排

其实他们自己排放的超嗨

In other words, they require China to cut emissions, but aren’t themselves stepping up to do their part.

如果地球继续升温的话

人类也会深受其害

If the Earth temperature continues rising, humanity will suffer more.

中国经验值得借鉴

多种树治理沙漠

China can share experiences of “zipping” the desert,

在城市里也可以见缝插针

让绿色占据每一寸空间

and greening every space possible in the city.

携起手来

让地球变得更绿

也让更多的生物能活下去

Join hands and make the Earth greener, so that we can prosper.
