污染之所以会引起我们的注意，是因为吸入后会让人不舒服，咳嗽，眼睛发痒等等。这足以让你想要去除污染。事实上，我们的记录员非常尽职地记录了我们说的每句话，他在二年级时写了一篇题为《公交车尾气及其对我的影响》的文章 (因为他过去经常沿着公交车路线从学校走回家)。
Pollution gets our attention because it’s unpleasant to inhale, can make us cough and our eyes itch, etc. It’s enough to make you want it to stop. In fact, our scribe who’s been dutifully recording everything we say wrote an essay in second grade called “Bus exhaust and what it means to me” (He used to walk home from school along a bus route is why.)

研究人员得出的结论是，污染产生的二氧化碳也会使气候变得让我们不习惯:冰盖正在融化，最终海滨地区将不得不向内陆越来越远的地方迁移。
Researchers have concluded that the CO2 that pollution produces will also make the climate different from what we’re used to: Ice caps are melting and eventually beachfront properties will have to relocate farther and farther inland.

也许我们应该在阿拉斯加买个地皮，那里变成热带的时候我去住?
Maybe we should get a plot in Alaska for when it goes tropical?

你们两个太神经质了。这些事情需要时间，很长时间。不要浪费你们的钱。
You two are so jumpy. These things take time, long time. Don’t waste your money.

古气候学家莫林·雷莫说，现在的大气就像几百万年前的上新世一样，海洋和冰原也在相应地调整。尽管当时的热带地区和现在差不多，但世界上其它地区(包括北部和南部)的气候更温暖。例如，佛罗里达的大部分地区都还在水下。
Paleoclimatologist Maureen Raymo says the atmosphere right now is like it was in the Pliocene era several million years ago and that the oceans and ice sheets are adjusting accordingly. Although the tropics were about the same then as now, the rest of the world north and south of them was warmer. Most of Florida was under water, for instance.

陨石。天气。让我们拭目以待吧……
