双语| 19年气候峰会关于今年实现温室气体减排的重要举措

世界各国领导人星期一（2019/09/23）在纽约联合国总部集会，再次承诺加强推进关于气候变化的一系列行动。

Assembled at the United Nations headquarters in New York, world leaders recommitted, Monday, to strengthen and accelerate climate actions.

77 countries committed to cut greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050 while another group of 70 countries announced they will either boost their national action plans by 2020 or have started the process of doing so.

77个国家承诺，2050年将温室气体排放量减至零，而另一个由70个国家组成的集团宣布，它们要么在2020年之前推动国家行动计划，要么已经着手推进了此次计划。

Despite contributing the least to the problem, smaller countries, including Small Island Developing States and Least Developed Countries in Africa, were among those that made the biggest pledges.

尽管对环境问题的影响最小，但一些小岛屿发展中国家和非洲最不发达国家在内的小国是作出最大承诺的国家之一。

Speaking at the closing, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said, “You have delivered a boost in momentum, cooperation and ambition. But we have a long way to go.

联合国秘书长古特雷斯（António Guterres）在闭幕式上说：“你们在气候问题上有着极大的行动势头、项目合作和解决雄心。但我们还有很长的路要走。
