06 全球领导人签署停止砍伐森林承诺书

In what is being billed as one of the first significant steps of the COP26 summit in Glasgow, more than 100 global leaders will make a commitment on Tuesday to halt deforestation by 2030, while 30 financial institutions are set to promise to eliminate the harmful practice from their portfolios by 2025.

在被誉为格拉斯哥COP26峰会的第一个重要步骤中，全球100多位领导人将承诺在2030年前停止砍伐森林，而30家金融机构将承诺在2025年前从其投资组合中消除这种有害做法。

The countries, including Australia, Colombia, Indonesia and the US, will commit to“working collectively to halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030 while delivering sustainable development and promoting an inclusive rural transformation.”How the commitment will be enforced remains unclear.

包括澳大利亚、哥伦比亚、印度尼西亚和美国在内的这些国家将承诺“共同努力，在2030年前制止和扭转森林减少和土地退化，同时实现可持续发展并促进包容性的农村转型。”然而，这一承诺将如何执行仍不清楚。

Climate experts said the pledges would mark a change in the seriousness with which deforestation — a main source of carbon emissions — is treated on the international stage and in the private sector.

气候专家表示，这些承诺将标志着国际社会和私营部门对待森林砍伐——碳排放的主要来源之一——的严肃态度发生改变。
