Air pollution in India is killing 100,000 children under five every year, damning study finds

研究发现，印度每年有10万名五岁以下儿童死于空气污染

The noxous air hanging over India's towns and cities kills more than 100,000 children under five every year, a damning study published Wednesday for World Environment Day found.

周三，在“世界环境日”上发布的一项研究发现，印度城镇上空的有毒空气每年导致10万名5岁以下儿童死亡

The State of India's Environment (SoE) Report found air pollution is responsible for 12.5 per cent of all deaths in the country - painting a bleak picture of the environmental record of recent Indian governments.

《印度环境状况报告》发现，该国12.5%的死亡是由空气污染造成的，这为印度近期政府的环境记录描绘了一幅黯淡的画面。

The report showed air pollution kills an average 8.5 out of every 10,000 children in India before they turn five.

报告显示，印度每1万名5岁以下儿童中，平均有8.5人死于空气污染。

The risk is higher for girls with 9.6 out of 10,000 girls dying before five as a result of the high levels of air pollution.

女孩面临的风险更高，每1万名5岁以下女孩就有9.6人死于重度空气污染。

The report put out by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), also found 86 per cent of Indian water bodies were 'critically polluted'. It added the country's progress in renewable energy was 'dismal'.

科学与环境中心发布的这份报告还发现，86%的印度水体受到了“严重污染”。报告还称，印度可再生能源方面的进展“令人沮丧”。

It is not the first report to paint a dire picture of India's environment. Last year a UN report found 14 of the world's 15 most polluted cities were located in the Asian nation.

这并不是第一份描绘印度环境惨状的报告。去年，联合国的一份报告发现，在全球15个污染最严重的城市中，有14个位于印度
