The date? November 2, 2021. The show? CNN 10.

日期——2021 年 11 月 2 日，節目——CNN 10.

The host? Moi. Carl Azuz. Total running time? Exactly 10 minutes, so let's get rolling.

主持人——Carl Azuz。節目長度——不長不短， 十分剛好。事不宜遲，我們馬上開始！

跟大家說明一下，COP 26 指的可不是員警編號啊！

The COP stands for Conference of the Parties, a gathering of members of the United Nations, and the 26 is because this is the 26th year that the global climate summit has been held.

COP 是聯合國氣候變遷綱要公約締約國會議，而 26 則代表第 26 屆全球氣候高峰會。

That's happening this week and next week in Glasgow, Scotland.

這項會議將在本週和下週在蘇格蘭格拉斯哥正式登場。

Tens of thousands of world leaders, their representatives, negotiators, businesses, and citizens are there, and all of these COP conferences are focused on the issue of climate change.

數千位世界領袖、代表、協調人、企業家和人民代表將赴會，並聚焦討論氣候變遷問題。

The UN says this was a fringe issue when the summits began and that it's now a global priority, though different nations have different levels of commitment to it.

聯合國說，早在峰會起始時期，氣候變遷問題還不嚴重，不過現在氣候變遷成了世界各國的優先處理事項，縱使不同國家對氣候變遷的態度不一。

Carbon dioxide emissions are front and center here.

二氧化碳排放是會議最重要的議程。

Most scientists say these emissions are harming the global environment by causing Earth's average temperatures to heat up.

多數科學家認為，碳排放引起全球平均氣溫上升，對全球環境造成危害。

A smaller group of scientists say climate change happens naturally and that the Earth can absorb human carbon emissions.

而小部分科學家則相信，氣候變遷屬於自然現象，地球可以吸收人為碳排放。

But the goal of these UN summits is for member countries to lay out new plans to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide.

但這些聯合國峰會的目標，是敦促會員國設法制定新策略來降低碳排放。

A significant event took place during COP 21 in 2015; it was held in the French capital.

2015 年，第 21 屆締約國會議在法國首都登場。當時的會議發生了一件重要的事。

And in what became known as the Paris Agreement, countries committed to reduce their carbon emissions by certain amounts.

這件事就是日後為人所知的《巴黎氣候協議》。在這項協議下，各國承諾會推行不同程度的碳排放降低措施。

This could include relying less on coal for energy and more on renewable forms like solar or wind power.

包括減少燃煤發電和增加利用可再生能源，如太陽能和風能發電。

The COP 21 commitments were not legally binding, meaning there was no penalty if nations failed to meet them.

各國在第 21 屆締約國會議上立定的承諾不具有法律約束力，換句話說，就算有關國家無法履行他們的承諾，也不會遭到任何的處罰。

And while supporters of the Paris Agreement, like former US President Barack Obama, called it, quote, "the best chance to save the planet", the United Nations says the COP 21 commitments didn't come close to achieving their goals.

雖然《巴黎氣候協議》的支持者們，如前美國總統歐巴馬形容該協議為「拯救地球的最好機會」，不過聯合國說，第 21 屆締約國會議的目標並未被達成。

So during COP 26, the UN is pushing for even greater efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

所以聯合國將在第 26 屆締約國會議上加強對成員國的呼籲，確保達到碳減排目標。

The Australian Government on Tuesday announcing its pledge to take the country to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, whereby greenhouse gas production is limited and any remaining greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere are removed.

澳洲政府在本週二公開承諾將在 2050 年達到淨零碳排目標，並管制溫室氣體的排放和消滅大氣中殘留的溫室氣體。

This coming ahead of the COP 26 climate talks in Glasgow, Scotland.

澳洲政府是趕在氣候峰會前，作出上述重大宣布。

But Australia has not pledged to be more ambitious on its 2030 carbon reductions targets; Australia says it's on track to reduce its carbon emissions by 26-28% of 2005 levels by 2030.

不過呢，澳洲並沒有在 2030 年減碳目標上作更積極的承諾，僅表示目前正在努力，以在 2030 年將碳排放量減至比 2005 年的水平低 26%-28%。

Speaking Tuesday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said his targets would not compromise jobs in the Australian mining industry.

在週二發表演講時，澳洲總理莫里森也同時承諾，減碳的目標不會影響澳洲採礦業發展。

Australia is one of the world's largest exporters of coal.

澳洲是全球其中一個最大的燃煤出口國。

Instead, they would rely on new technologies such as carbon soil sequestration and new green energy technologies, which are so far unproven.

莫里森表示，他們會依靠新科技，如土壤碳固存和未經證實的新綠能技術來達到減碳目標。

Australians, eh, want action on climate change; they're taking action on climate change

澳洲人非常樂意為減緩氣候變遷付出努力；而澳洲人也正採取行動應對氣候變遷。

But they also want to protect their jobs and their livelihoods.

不過，澳洲人也必須保護他們的就業機會和生計。

They also want to keep the cost of living down, and they also want to protect the Australian way of life, especially in rural and regional areas.

他們想要維持低廉的生活成本，同時也想保護澳洲人傳統的生活方式，特別是在鄉區和地方生活的澳洲人。

10-second trivia: Which of these adjectives is derived from a latin term meaning steersman?

10 秒問答！以下哪些形容詞是由哪一個是由象徵舵手的拉丁文衍生而來？

Gubernatorial, sartorial, naval, or avuncular.

州長的（Gubernatorial）、裁縫的（sartorial）、海軍的（naval）、伯父的（avuncular）？

Gubernator sounds like the Latin term for steersmen or governor, and it's where we get our word gubernatorial.

答案是州長的（Gubernatorial）。Gubernatorial 在拉丁文中代表著舵手或州長的意思。

And two US gubernatorial races factor into our next report this Tuesday.

我們下一則消息是關於美國兩場州長選舉。

One of them is in the Garden State, New Jersey; the other is in the old Dominion State, Virginia.

「花園之州」新澤西州和「老道明州」維吉尼亞州的州長選舉，

And while most gubernatorial races don't get the amount of national attention that presidential elections do, these two, in particular, are closely watched as types of forecasts about how America's two main political parties are faring.

多數的州長選舉不會引起舉國關注。人們對總統選舉的關注度總是遠勝過州長選舉，不過，這兩場選舉被視為美國兩大黨的前哨戰，所以自然更添看頭。

Interest is particularly high during a time of deep political divisions and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

尤其現在人們政見分歧更深，美國又持續受困於新冠疫情。

Here's CNN 10 contributor Rachel Janfaza with a look at events in two eastern states.

我們請 CNN 10 的撰稿人 Rachel Janfaza 分析一下發生在這兩個東部州屬的選舉。

Both Virginia and New Jersey hold their elections for governor one year after a presidential election, Carl.

在總統選舉落幕一年後，維吉尼亞州和新澤西州舉辦了州長選舉。

You may have heard these races referred to as "bellwether elections", but you might be wondering, "What does a 'bellwether election' really mean?"

你也許聽過選舉風向標這個形容詞，但你也許會疑問，到底選舉風向標是什麼意思？

Well, the term "bellwether" refers to something that's a predictor for or resembles a larger phenomenon.

其實，風向標指的是某些現象的顯示或預示。

The word actually comes from Old Middle English, when a bell was put around the neck of a ram, also known as a wether, to lead a flock of sheep in one direction.

這個單字其實來自中古英文，那時候的人會把鈴鐺掛在公羊或閹羊脖子上，把牠們當成領頭羊，通過指揮領頭羊的方式來指揮羊群的移動方向。

Think of a bellwether as a leader, or to put it in the context of 2021, an influencer.

領頭羊就是領袖，你可以把領頭羊想像成 2021 年的意見領袖。

These gubernatorial races can provide a glimpse into how the country is feeling one year after a general election season and can predict trends for how the country may act one year moving forward during the mid-term elections.

透過解讀兩個州長的選舉結果，你可以推敲出國民在選舉滿一年後對政府的感受，並預測中期選舉的民意。

Often, but not always, these elections go in favor of the party not in the White House.

通常，不是經常，選民在這類選舉中都會把票投給聯邦在野黨。

For example, in 2005, Democrats clinched in both Virginia and New Jersey.

2005 年，民主黨在選舉中拿下維吉尼亞州和新澤西州的執政權。

At the time, pundits said that served as a warning sign for Republicans and President George W. Bush.

當時，那些專家說這是共和黨和時任總統小布希的警訊。

And in 2009, Republicans won in both states, which didn't look so great for President Barack Obama.

然而，在 2009 年，歐巴馬總統所屬的民主黨將這兩州的政權敗給了共和黨。

Though both President Bush and President Obama ended up completing two full terms as president.

不過小布希和歐巴馬依然分別成功連任美國總統。

So, what would happen in Virginia and New Jersey isn't a direct creed for what will happen across the country moving forward.

所以雖然維吉尼亞和新澤西的選舉成果不一定會成為美國後續發展的教條，

It can give a sense of how America's feeling in the off-year.

但你可以從這兩州的選舉結果中看出非大選期間，美國人的民情。
