‘We found there are four actions that could result in substantial decreases in an individual’s carbon footprint: eating a plant-based diet, avoiding air travel, living car-free, and having smaller families.’
“我们发现四种人类行为可以大幅降低个人碳排放量,即:吃素食,不坐飞机,不开车,缩小家庭规模。”
He added that these actions ‘have much greater potential to reduce emissions than commonly promoted strategies’.
塞思还表示,这些行为“降低排放量的可能性比通常宣传的方法大得多”。
For example, recycling is four times less effective at reducing greenhouse gases than eating a plant-based diet, while using energy-saving bulbs is eight times less effective.
例如,吃素食降低温室气体排放量的效率比回收利用废品高四倍,比使用节能灯泡高八倍。
Living car-free saves about 2.4 tons of CO2 equivalent per year, while eating a plant-based diet saves 0.8 tons.
不开车相当于每年减少2.4吨二氧化碳排放,而吃素食相当于减少0.8吨。
The impact of having a child is calculated by factoring in not only the extra impact of the child, but also that of their potential future descendants.
计算一个孩子对碳排放量的影响有多大,不仅要考虑这个孩子额外产生的碳排量,还要考虑其后代可能产生的影响。
