Anne Larigauderie on the state of life on Earth?
EarthSky
Today – a new U.N. panel designed to report back to the world on the state of the richness and variety of life on Earth. We spoke with one of the scientists creating the panel – plant ecologist Anne Larigauderie.
現(xiàn)在一個(gè)新的聯(lián)合國(guó)小組正在籌備中,其創(chuàng)建目的是對(duì)地球上生物多樣性和豐富性的現(xiàn)況做出評(píng)估。我們今天采訪到了該小組的主創(chuàng)科學(xué)家之一——植物生態(tài)學(xué)家安妮?拉瑞德里
Anne Larigauderie: The hope is that we can have an impact on the issue at stake, which is the loss of biodiversity, the extinction of species, the damaging of ecosystems, and also the loss of the services that we derive from this biodiversity.
安妮?拉瑞德里:我們成立這個(gè)小組是希望能積極參與解決一些至關(guān)重要的問題,諸如生物多樣性喪失、物種滅絕、生態(tài)系統(tǒng)破壞、生態(tài)服務(wù)喪失等。
The panel is called the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, or IPBES. Dr. Larigauderie explained how it will work.
這個(gè)小組的名稱是“生物多樣性和生態(tài)服務(wù)跨政府間科學(xué)政策平臺(tái)”,簡(jiǎn)稱“IPBES”。拉瑞德里博士講述了該小組的工作流程。
Anne Larigauderie: All the governments are going to gather, and they are going to list a number of questions that they have on biodiversity and ecosystem services and ask scientists around the world to produce scientific reports.
安妮?拉瑞德里:各國(guó)政府工作人員聚到一起,列舉他們對(duì)生物多樣性和生態(tài)服務(wù)問題上存在一系列困惑,然后讓全世界科學(xué)家撰寫科學(xué)報(bào)告解答他們的疑惑。
The work will be peer reviewed by the scientists. The goal is to produce reports for policy-makers and the public.
這項(xiàng)工作將受到同行科學(xué)家的監(jiān)督,目的是為決策者和公眾提供科學(xué)的報(bào)告。
Anne Larigauderie: That could be on urgent issues or emerging issues, for example a disease like bird flu or an invasive species or an issue like this.
安妮?拉瑞德里:一些亟待解決或新涌現(xiàn)問題可能會(huì)被提出來,如禽流感、入侵物種等。
She said the U.N. General Assembly will decide whether or not to approve the IPBES by the end of 2010.?
她說,聯(lián)合國(guó)大會(huì)將在2010年年底決定是否同意成立IPBES。
