But Robert Kaufmann is in no doubt that temperatures will pick up if greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise.
但是Robert Kaufmann丝毫不怀疑,如果温室气体排放量继续上升,则气温将继续升高。
The computer models predict that if emissions continue to rise at the present rate, average temperatures will most likely increase by 4c by 2100.
电脑模型的预测显示,如果排放量以当前速率增加,到2100年平均气温极有可能升高4度。
Soon, however, the drought that has reduced wetland emissions will end, pumping additional greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as China's own emissions continue to rise.
干旱会使甲烷的排放降低,但这样的好事很快就要结束了。在中国本身的温室气体排放持续增加的同时,现在又有额外的温室气体被泵入大气。
Scientists warn that without an agreement to reduce so-called green house gas emissions, global temperatures will continue to rise, with the catastrophic consequences of extreme weather events, the spread of drought and disease, and the extinction of plant and animal species.
