过去250年来,人类已经对地球进行了巨大而不可逆转的改变。人类工业排放的温室气体改变了地球的气候,这是人类所面临的最大威胁。未来1000年,我们居住的地球会有什么样的变化?我们应该如何改变呢?

In the last 250 years, humans have drastically and irreversibly transformed the Earth.

Greenhouse gases emitted by human industries have changed the planet's climate, presenting the single greatest threat humanity has ever faced.

If humans can cause such incredible damage to the Earth in 250 years, what will our planet look like in 1000 years' time?

The destructive relationship between humans and the Earth began in the late 18th century, during a boom of mechanization called the Industrial Revolution.

Human industry grew rapidly with the widespread usage of oil, coal, and natural gas, all of which release large quantities of carbon dioxide, along with other greenhouse gases, like methane and nitrous oxide.

These greenhouse gases trap the sun's energy in the atmosphere, warming the planet and altering the Earth's climate.

Between 1850 and 2020, greenhouse gas emissions warmed the Earth by roughly 1.2 degrees Celsius.

Current projections estimate a devastating 2-degree increase in global temperatures by 2100,

which may trigger extreme climate disruptions and irreversible ecological damage.

The global impact of human pollution is further exacerbated by extensive environmental destruction.
