联合国《生物多样性公约》代理执行秘书伊丽莎白·玛如玛·莫勒玛、世界卫生组织环境与卫生部主任玛丽亚·奈拉、世界自然基金会总干事马可·兰博蒂尼告诉《卫报》说:“这些年我们已经见过很多疾病的出现,比如艾滋病、非典,还有寨卡病毒和埃博拉病毒引发的疾病,这些病毒都是在严重的环境压力下来自动物群体。”
With coronavirus, “these outbreaks are manifestations of our dangerously unbalanced relationship with nature”, they said. “They all illustrate that our own destructive behaviour towards nature is endangering our own health – a stark reality we’ve been collectively ignoring for decades.
他们指出,新冠病毒的“暴发展现出我们与自然严重失衡的关系”。“这些疾病都表明了我们自己对自然的破坏性行为正在危及我们的自身健康——几十年来我们一直在集体无视这个赤裸裸的事实。”
“Worryingly, while Covid-19 has given us yet another reason to protect and preserve nature, we have seen the reverse take place. From the Greater Mekong, to the Amazon and Madagascar, alarming reports have emerged of increased poaching, illegal logging and forest fires, while many countries are engaging in hasty environmental rollbacks and cuts in funding for conservation. This all comes at a time when we need it most.
“令人担忧的是,尽管新冠病毒又给了我们一个保护自然的理由,但我们却看到人们在背道而驰。从大湄公河到亚马孙雨林和马达加斯加,越来越多的偷猎、非法砍伐和森林火灾见诸报端,而许多国家正仓促地采取倒退的环境政策,削减保护自然的资金。这些都发生在我们最需要保护自然的时候。”
