Environmental challenges, ranging from the smog in cities to toxic groundwater to the Antarctic ozone hole have been presented to us. I believe that many of these challenges should be met with collaboration across national boundaries. Environmental concerns should be dealt with through joint efforts from countries for two main reasons. The first one is now problems such as oil spills and dust storms are so widespread that they can hardly be confined to one single country or region. Thus, it is crucial that these problems be solved with international efforts. What is meant by this is each country and person should be made aware of their unique role in environmental protection. The second reason why joint effort is essential is that each country has its own weaknesses in environmental protection. For instance, even though the industrialized countries possess advanced technology and the financial resources for environmental preservation, many of them cannot solve the serious problem of emission induced climate change because reducing this problem may slow down their industrial production and lower their people's comfort and convenience. Accordingly, nations and international organizations have their roles to play in ensuring that the rich countries fulfill their environmental obligations.
从都市里弥漫的烟雾到有毒地下水再到南极上方的臭氧空洞，严峻的环境问题已经摆在了我们面前。我认为，许多这类挑战都应该跨越国家界限，通过合作来解决。 环境问题应该通过国家之间的共同努力来解决，其原因有二。第一，如今诸如石油泄漏和沙尘暴之类的新问题是如此地广泛蔓延，以至于很难将其控制在单个国家或地区。因此，通过国际合作来解决这些问题是至关重要的。这就是说，每一个国家和个人都应当意识到他们在环境保护中起到的独特作用。第二，共同努力如此重要是因为每个国家在环境保护中都有其各自的缺陷。譬如，虽然工业化国家在环境保护领域拥有先进的科技和财政资源，但面对汽车尾气导致的气候变化，很多工业化国家都无法解决由此产生的严重问题，这是因为解决这类问题可能会减少他们的工业生产，并降低那些国家人民生活的舒适度和便利性。相应的，国家和国际组织也在确保富国履行其环境义务方面发挥着作用。
