聯合國兒童基金會：每年有60萬幼童死于空氣污染
UNICEF: Air pollution kills 600,000 children yearly
UNICEF is calling on world leaders to reduce air pollution, saying it leads to the deaths of more children yearly than malaria and HIV/AIDS combined.
聯合國兒童基金會（UNICEF）呼吁各國領導人減少空氣污染,該組織稱每年死于空氣污染的兒童比死于瘧疾和艾滋病的兒童加起來還要多.
Around 600,000 children under age 5 die every year from diseases caused by or exacerbated by outdoor and indoor air pollution, especially in poor nations, UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake said in the introduction to a report titled "Clear the Air for Children."
Air pollution also hurts children it doesn't kill, including the unborn, he said.
雷克表示,兒童即使沒有死于空氣污染也會因此受到傷害,未出生的胎兒也不例外.
"Pollutants don't only harm children's developing lungs, they can actually cross the blood-brain barrier and permanently damage their developing brains, and, thus, their futures. No society can afford to ignore air pollution."
他說："空氣中的污染物不僅會傷害孩子們正在發育的肺,還能穿過血腦屏障,給兒童發育中的大腦造成永久性傷害,任何國家都承擔不起忽視空氣污染的后果."
The report was released in advance of the November 7-18 UN Climate Change Conference in Marrakech, Morocco, also known as COP22, the 22nd session of the Conference of the Parties.
第22屆聯合國氣候變化大會（COP22）將于11月7日至18日在摩洛哥馬拉喀什市舉行.聯合國兒童基金會在會議召開前發布了這份報告.
COP21 was held in Paris in November 2015 and received a lot more attention, partly because so many world leaders convened not long after a major terrorist attack occurred there.
第21屆聯合國氣候變化大會于2015年11月在巴黎舉行,這次會議之所以受到了前所未有的關注,一定程度上是因為各國領導人在巴黎遭受大規模恐怖襲擊不久之后就在此召開會議.
The conference achieved its major goal: Reaching a legally binding agreement to keep global warming below what most scientists say is the critical threshold of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) of warming.
這次會議完成了它的主要目標——與會各國達成了一項具有法律約束力的協定,承諾將全球變暖幅度限制在2攝氏度（3.6華氏度）以內.多數科學家認為2攝氏度是一個關鍵的臨界點.
UNICEF is asking world leaders attending COP22 to take four steps:
聯合國兒童基金會要求參加第22屆聯合國氣候變化大會的各國領導人采取以下四項措施：
--Reduce pollution by cutting back on fossil fuel combustion and investing in energy efficiency.
通過能源效率方面的投資和減少化石燃料的用量來減少污染；
--Increase children's access to health care, including more immunization programs and information programs about pneumonia, a leading killer of children under 5.
