芬兰已要求北冰洋的八个滨岸国家签署一项有关保护北极区环境的条约。这一倡议是在工作于北冰极地区的科学家们开始采取行动来协调有关全球气候变暖问题的研究工作时提出的,同时它也是考虑了苏联科学家提出的希望分享数据和设施的建议。这一揽子倡议是由芬兰驻欧洲条约组织大使艾斯科·拉贾柯思基上周在法国北极研究委 Finland has demanded that eight of the Arctic coastal nations sign a treaty on the protection of the Arctic environment. The initiative was put forward when scientists working in the Arctic region started taking action to coordinate research on global warming and at the same time considered Soviet scientists' proposals to share data and facilities. This package is sponsored by the Finnish Embassy to Europe in the Treaty asker Rajkoski last week at the French Arctic Research Committee
