科学家们呼吁全世界解决由地球气温升高引起的全球变暖问题。约翰·英厄姆(环保编辑)全球变暖的速度比人们以前担心的快两倍。近来联合国发表报告警告说,21世纪地球气温可能上升近6摄氏度——比过去1万年的任何时候都要迅速。在过去100年里,地球的气温仅上升了0.6摄氏度。但是在20世纪的最后10年里,气温达到了最高纪录。数个月前在海牙进行的减少5%的温室气体排放的谈判失败了。报道警告说,若地球气温升高5.8摄氏度,随着 Scientists called on the world to solve the problem of global warming caused by the rising temperature of the Earth. John Ingham (Environmental Editor) global warming is twice as fast as people had previously feared. Recently, the United Nations issued a report warning that the earth’s temperature in the 21st century may rise by nearly 6 degrees Celsius — faster than at any time during the past 10,000 years. In the past 100 years, the temperature of the Earth has only risen by 0.6 degrees Celsius. But in the last decade of the 20th century, temperatures reached the highest record. The negotiations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 5% in The Hague a few months ago have failed. The report warned that if the Earth’s temperature rises 5.8 degrees Celsius, with
