Within the past sixty years, the rate of temperature increase has doubled. Despite the minute change in absolute degrees, this trend and its acceleration are of widespread concern .
Biodiversity n.生物多样性（近义词：biological
diversity）
During the last century, average global temperatures have risen approximately 0.6/C. Within the past sixty years, the rate of temperature increase has doubled. Despite the minute change in absolute degrees, this trend and its acceleration are of widespread concern (Walther, 2002). The rise will affect the Earth’s biosphere and the sustainability of vital system components. Since the concept of environmental unity states that one change in the system can influence multiple components, it is necessary to understand how variance in temperature will affect the interrelations of climate and ecosystem in relation to one another. For instance, by measuring changes in phenology, demographics and population sizes and by documenting genetic mutations, specialists and scientists are able to determine what is damaging the ecosystem. Findings include alarming inconsistencies in species behavior and a lowering of their natural physiological thresholds (Anonymous, 2004b). Clearly, taxa are not acclimating ideally to the changing climate. If nothing is done Earth may be facing future mass extinctions and an irreplaceable loss of biodiversity. Since the Western world’s industrial revolution, our reliance on fossil fuels has accelerated. Such careless use of these fuels has accelerated hastening the effects of global warming. Therefore, we, as populations and individuals, must be active to advance education of this subject, and promote proper legislation and environmental groups to reduce CO2.

1、individuals（n个体） 2、advance（v促进，前进） 3、promote（v促进，提升） 4、legislation（n立法，法律）
因此，我们不论是整体还是个体，都必须要积 极促进在这个课题上的教育，并且促进适当的 立法和环保组织去减少二氧化碳。
谢谢大家 再见！

因为环境的统一，在系统中一个组分的改变将 影响到很多组分的观念，使得有必要了解温度 怎么变化将会影响到气候和生态系统彼此间的
是什么破坏着生态系统。

1、biosphere（n.生物圈）
2、sustainability（n.可持续性，可持续发展） 3、vital（a至关重要的，有活力的） 4、 components（组分）
这种上升将影响到地球的生物圈和至关重要的 地球系统组分的可持续性。

因为西方世界的工业革命,我们对化石燃料的依 赖已经加速。这样粗心地使用这些燃料已经加 速催促了全球变暖的影响。
在过去的六十年里,气温上升的速度已经 翻了一番。尽管这在绝对温度上是微小的 改变，但它的趋势和加速却被广泛关注着。
The rise will affect the Earth’s biosphere and the sustainability of vital system components.
