Better City ，Better life

优质的城市，优质的生活

Environmental problem has become an important and crucial issue. The abysmal lack of fresh water, the desertification, the green house effect and the extinction of creatures are the main issues in environment.

环境问题已成为一个重要和关键的问题。恶化的淡水缺乏，沙漠化，温室效应和生物灭绝是环境的主要问题。

With each second that passes, a water crisis takes another step closer to reality. Consumption of fresh water has tripled since 1950; and fresh water is becoming a very scarce resource. Agricultural practices, mainly irrigation, account for 67% of world water consumption. Over one billion people worldwide don?t have access to clean drinking water. So it is incumbent upon all to respect every drop of water and avoid the generation of waste.

随着每一秒的过去，水危机用其他的方法去接近现实。新鲜水用量自1950年以来已经翻了两番;和淡水已成为一个非常稀缺的资源。农业实践，主要是灌溉，为世界用水量67％以上。全世界十几亿人无法获得干净的饮用水。因此，呼吁所有有责任尊重每一滴水，避免废物的产生。

The soil under our feet is also getting away from us. Removal of the natural vegetation leaves extensive tracts of land devoid of a plant cover and susceptible to wind and water erosion. Finally, desertification is accomplished. Four specific activities have been identified as major contributors to the desertification processes: over-cultivation, overgrazing, firewood gathering, and over-irrigation. The extreme seriousness of desertification results from the great difficulty in reversing or even slowing the process. Once the soil has been removed by erosion, only the passage of centuries or millennia will enable new soil to form. The tree planting is a dominant contributor to the development of the disaster. Another effective measure is to restrain the utilization of the land and to exploit the new technology to improve the productiveness of the arable land.

在我们脚下的土地也越来越远离我们。自然植被因为缺乏土地植被和易受风蚀和水蚀而死亡。最后，荒漠化完成。四项具体活动已被确定为对荒漠化的主要导致的过程：过度农垦，过度放牧，薪柴采集和过度灌溉。荒漠化的极端严重性，导致减缓甚至逆转这一过程非常困难。一旦土壤被侵蚀，只有几百年或几千年的才能抵御，使新的土壤形成。主要控制灾情发展都归功于植树。另一个是抑制土地利用率和利用新科技来提高耕地生产率的有效措施。

Our globe is warming up. GHG gases are the main contributor. Carbon dioxide emissions to air are almost exclusively associated with the conversion of energy carriers like natural gas, crude oil, and so forth. Optimization of energy efficiency and, thus, reduction of CO2-emissions and reduction of other GHG emissions contributed from production processes may be the first to be

discussed. And the mitigation of carbon emissions through the development of alternative projects such as solar or wind energy or reforestation, represents one way of managing a carbon footprint.

我们的地球正在变暖了。温室气体是主要的来源。二氧化碳排放到空气中几乎都是在像天然气，原油等能源载体的转换有关。能源效率，因此优化，二氧化碳的排放和其他温室气体减排贡献减少，生产工艺，第一次将要被讨论。发展减缓碳排放量，如通过太阳能或风能或重新造林的替代项目，代表一个管理方式的碳足迹。

The greed of human beings is using up the plants and animals. Tigers once roamed over most of Asia and we can only see them in the zoo. Whales are once the dominant species in the ocean and now they have got out of our sight because of over-harvesting. We must stop harvesting natural resources to excess and bring them back from the brink of extinction. If we take from the wild we must do it in ways that allow natural populations to recover and last long into the future.

人类的贪婪是使用了植物和动物。猛虎组织一度横跨了亚洲大部分地区，我们只能在动物园里看到它们。鲸是海洋中的一次优势种，现在他们现在已经离开了我们的视线，因为过度捕捞。我们必须停止过度采伐天然资源，从他们来的地方，带来了灭绝的边缘。如果我们在野外，我们必须采取的这样的方式使自然种群的恢复和持续，一直持续到未来很长的时间里。

The earth is not the human’s planet, it is our planet. It’s time to take measures to improve the environment for both humans and other creatures. A safe, clean and sustainable environment depends on more than lip service. Both the government and individuals have the responsibility to minimize direct impacts against the environment. All of us can start planting plants in our home, limiting the use of private cars and using public transportations. And the government should impose necessary standards upon the whole society. The beautiful and vigorous earth will come back soon.

地球不是人类的星球，它是我们的星球。现在是时候应该采取措施改善人类和其他生物的环境了。一个安全，清洁和可持续的环境不是取决于纸上谈兵。无论是政府和个人都有责任，尽量减少对环境的直接影响。我们都可以在我们的家开始种植植物，限制私家车的使用和使用公共交通。政府应强加给整个社会所必需的标准。美丽和活力地球将会很快回来。
