15,000 Scientists Issue ‘Warning to Humanity’
15000名科学家发布“人类警告”
Over 15,000 scientists have signed a letter to humanity that warns of catastrophic consequences for the earth, including vast human misery for our rapidly growing population. This is a follow-up letter to an original warning that 1,700 scientists issued exactly 25 years ago. Every threat to the earth has worsened since the original letter except the hole in the ozone layer which has improved. The letter warns that it will soon be too late to prevent mass extinction, dead zones in the ocean, and a lack of fresh food and water. In addition to the warning, the letter offers suggestions for preventing this fate, including phasing out the investment and use of fossil fuels and eating more plant-based foods.
15000多名科学家签署了一封给人类的信件，提醒人类给地球带来的灾难性后果，包括人口快速增长带来的大量痛苦。这是对25年前1700名科学家发布的最初警告的后续补充。自最初的信件发布以后，除了臭氧层空洞有所改善外，所有对地球的威胁都已恶化。这封信警告人们很快就无法阻止物种大灭绝、海洋中的死亡区、缺乏新鲜食物和水源。除这些警告外，信里还提供了避免这一命运的建议，包括逐步淘汰对化石燃料的投资和利用、多吃植物类食物。
