環(huán)保熱詞

隨著聯(lián)合國(guó)氣候變化峰會(huì)的召開(kāi)，深圳市關(guān)于溫室氣體排放，碳足跡，以及節(jié)能減排的討論成環(huán)保熱話(huà)題。有些地方為了讓人更好的了解低碳對(duì)環(huán)境保護(hù)的作用。有關(guān)專(zhuān)業(yè)機(jī)構(gòu)還設(shè)計(jì)出一個(gè)碳足跡計(jì)算器，讓每個(gè)人都了解自己的行為對(duì)環(huán)境造成的影響。那么，這個(gè)“碳足跡”到底是什么意思呢？

A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of carbon dioxide (CO2). In other words: When you drive a car, the engine burns fuel which creates a certain amount of CO2, depending on its fuel consumption and the driving distance. When you buy food and goods, the production of the food and goods also emitted some quantities of CO2. Even if you heat your house with electricity, the generation of the electrical power may also have emitted a certain amount of CO2.

碳足跡指直接或間接支持人類(lèi)活動(dòng)所產(chǎn)生的溫室氣體總量，通常用產(chǎn)生的二氧化碳噸數(shù)來(lái)表示。換句話(huà)說(shuō)，你開(kāi)車(chē)的時(shí)候，發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)在燃燒汽油的同時(shí)會(huì)釋放出一定量的二氧化碳，這個(gè)量由耗油量和行駛里程決定。你購(gòu)買(mǎi)食物和商品的時(shí)候，生產(chǎn)食物和商品的過(guò)程也會(huì)釋放出一定量的二氧化碳。就算你家的房子是用電采暖，電能產(chǎn)生的過(guò)程也是釋放二氧化碳的。

Your carbon footprint is the sum of all emissions of CO2, which were induced by your activities in a given time frame. Usually a carbon footprint is calculated for the time period of a year.

你的碳足跡就是在一定時(shí)間段內(nèi)你的所有活動(dòng)引起的二氧化碳排放總量。通常情況下，碳足跡是以一年為一個(gè)時(shí)間段進(jìn)行計(jì)算的。
