原音重现:
N: In 2000, my opponent pledged to regulate CO2 and then… That was not a pledge that was kept. But the point of this is all this time you can see what I have seen all these years. It just keeps going up. It is relentless. And now we're beginning to see the impact in the real world. This is Mount Kilimanjaro more than 30 years ago and more recently.
我的对手在2000年总统大选时承诺管制二氧化碳排放量……当选之后却没有信守承诺。但是重点是你们可以清楚地看到这些年来我看到的问题,排放量一直不断增加,愈演愈烈,开始在全球造成极大的影响。这是30多年前的乞力马扎罗山,还有这个最近的一张。
