莫迪：到2070年印度将实现净零排放的目标

India says it will go net-zero by 2070, what does it mean?

印度：到2070年将实现净零排放的目标，这意味着什么

India will achieve the goal of ‘net-zero’ emissions by 2070, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced during his address to world leaders at the COP26 climate change summit in Glasgow on Monday.

印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪周一在格拉斯哥举行的COP26气候变化峰会上向世界领导人发表讲话时宣布，印度将在2070年实现“净零”排放的目标。

So, what is net-zero? In simple terms, net-zero means that greenhouse gas emissions pumped into the atmosphere by humans need to be balanced by the creation of new carbon sinks (like forests) to absorb an equivalent amount.

什么是净零呢？简而言之，净零排放意味着人类排放到大气中的温室气体需要通过创造新的碳汇(如森林)来平衡，以吸收同等数量的温室气体。

Scientists have said global emissions need to roughly halve by 2030 and reach ‘net-zero’ by 2050. Most nations have agreed to the 2050 deadline. China aims to achieve the goal by 2060.

科学家们表示，到2030年，全球碳排放需要减半，到2050年达到“净零”。大多数国家都同意2050年的这一最后期限。中国的目标是到2060年实现这一目标。

Experts say achieving ‘net-zero’ emissions is important as it is the best way to tackle climate change by reducing global warming.

专家表示，实现“净零”排放很重要，这是通过减少全球变暖来应对气候变化的最佳途径。

The measures taken towards limiting emissions over the next decade will be critical to the future.

未来十年为限制排放而采取的措施对未来至关重要。

2070 ! Nothing like being so far into the future to make it a meaningless target

2070年，太遥远了，这是一个毫无意义的目标

We must make people work until they die no retirement and tax them so much they will have no life outside of work

我们可以让人们工作到死，不准退休，并向他们征税，让他们在工作之外没有生活

India hav to spend 7% of its gdp every year to reach target 2070 net zero.. USA made 28 % of total carban emition in the world and india 3 %, china 9%...os its first Develop contries Hav to contribut because they r rich of carbon emition and cost of it Will bankcorpt contries

印度应该每年投入GDP的7%，才能达到2070年净零的目标。

美国占世界碳排放总量的28%，印度占3%，中国占9%…

发展中国家应当做出贡献，他们碳排放量高

Well according to Boris, we’ll be toast by then. Thanks guys!

鲍里斯说，到那时我们都完蛋了，谢谢你们了!

Considering so called developed nations like USA would hit the target by 2050,a develo nation like India , promising to deliver net zero by 2070 is remarkable.

鉴于美国等所谓的发达国家将在2050年实现这一目标，像印度这样的发展中国家承诺在2070年实现净零排放，这是了不起的。

Easy for someone to promise something my 2070 when he probably won't even get to 2050

他可能活不过2050年，制定一个2070年实现的目标太容易了

Well am curious with Indias "One World One Sun" initiative. Not imppssible considering 14 Deserts in India.

我对印度的“同一个世界，同一个太阳”的倡议很好奇。考虑到印度有14个沙漠，这并非不可能。

Sadly the way towards prosperity passes through pollution, every developed country has been through it and India too will go through it. Developed countries have to provide clean energy technology at affordable price or else be ready for exponential growth of CO2 emissions

不幸的是，通往繁荣的道路少不了污染，每个发达国家都经历过，印度也将经历。发达国家应当提供清洁能源技术，否则就要做好应对二氧化碳排放指数增长的准备
