全球暖化/global warming

全球暖化這個議題的確不新鮮,但是你知道它的嚴重性嗎?

Its not a fresh topic when we mention about global warming, but do you know how serious it is?



歷史上平均溫度最高的10年都在1990年以後出現,最熱的一年出現在2005年。

The history of the top 10 highest average are all year 1990 after, the hottest year appeared 2005.



2003年歐洲的熱浪導致三萬人以上熱死;2005年夏天,全球數以千計的城市創下史上最高溫。

2003 European heat wave caused more than 30,000 deaths; In the summer of 2005, thousands of the world's most cities set high temperature.



由於全球溫度快速上升,北極冰圈不斷融化、縮小,生活在冰圈上的北極熊甚至被迫游泳數十公里才能找到一塊浮冰,但是有北極熊體力不足,竟然溺斃在海裡。

The rapid increase in global temperatures, the melting of the Arctic ice circle, narrow living in the lap of the ice forced polar bears swim even dozens of kilometers to find a pack ice, but polar bears physical shortage, it was drowned in the sea.



由於全球暖化,海水溫度提高,經過溫暖海域的颶風、颱風威力都會變大,2005年侵襲美國紐奧良的卡翠娜颶風造成了數十億美元的經濟損失。

Due to global warming, sea water temperature increased, the warm waters of hurricanes, typhoons power will change, in 2005 the United States hit the New Orleans hurricane Katrina caused billions of dollars in economic losses.

受到全球暖化影響,南太平洋島國吐瓦魯首都富那富提的海平面,本季上升到有史以來最高水平。漲潮時,海浪已逼近這座狹長環礁城市的住宅區。人口一萬兩千人的吐瓦魯,由九個珊瑚礁島組成,國土面積僅廿六平方公里。研究顯示,若全球暖化導致海平面上升一公尺,吐瓦魯將被海水淹沒。

Affected by global warming, the capital of the South Pacific island nation Tuvalu Fu Fu mentioned that the sea level, this quarter rose to the highest level in history. At high tide, the waves have been approaching this narrow atoll urban residential areas.Population 12,000 people Tuvalu, composed of nine coral islands, land area of only 26 square kilometers. Studies show that if global warming led to a meter sea-level rise, Tuvalu will be inundated by the water.
