联合国:臭氧层出现恢复的迹象

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]The [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/ozone][b]ozone[/b][/url] layer that shields the earth from cancer-causing ultraviolet rays is showing early signs of thickening after years of [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/depletion][b]depletion[/b][/url], a UN study says.[/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]联合国一项研究显示,保护地球免受致癌紫外线伤害的臭氧层在经历多年的枯竭之后正出现增厚的初步迹象。[/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The ozone hole that appears [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/annually][b]annually[/b][/url] over [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/98030.html]Antarctica[/url] has also stopped growing bigger every year.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The report says it will take a decade before the hole starts to shrink.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Scientists say the recovery is [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/entirely][b]entirely[/b][/url] due to political determination to phase out the man-made CFC gases destroying ozone.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The study was published by researchers from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). [/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"International action on the ozone layer is a major environmental success story... This should encourage us to display the same level of urgency and [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/unity][b]unity[/b][/url] to tackle the even greater challenge of tackling climate change," said WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Dr [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/Ken][b]Ken[/b][/url] Jucks from the US space agency Nasa told BBC News that humans "have started to do the right thing in order to convert the [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/98030.html]atmosphere[/url] back towards what it was before the industrial revolution started".[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Scientists cannot be absolutely certain yet that the hole will heal itself. Prof David Vaughan from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) said that test results from his [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/organisation][b]organisation[/b][/url] would throw extra light on the WMO's findings.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"We have to be a bit cautious, but this does look on the face of it like some very good news," he told BBC News. "Our own data from the Antarctic will take a few weeks to process but we hope to confirm the findings. If it's accurate, it underlines the potential power of international agreement."[/size][/font]
