前纽约市长被任命为联合国气候行动特使

联合国秘书长古特雷斯任命前纽约市市长迈克尔·布隆伯格担任他的气候行动特使。

前政治人物、亿万富翁布隆伯格将负责支持下一年的联合国气候峰会,审核2015年巴黎气候协议提出的减排目标的执行成果。

布隆伯格说:“每隔一段时间,我们的政府和我们国家中的一些人就会说一些好像这事跟他们无关一样的话。但我认为长期来看,美国已经展现了对联合国的支持。美国支持联合国赞同和推动的程序。”

布隆伯格说,他希望川普总统收回退出巴黎气候协定的决定。超过200个国家和地区签署了这项具有里程碑意义的协议。

Bloomberg appointed as UN envoy for climate action

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has appointed former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg as his special envoy for climate action.

The former politician and billionaire businessman will be responsible for supporting a U.N. Climate Summit next year to review the success of the 2015 Paris climate accord aimed at curbing the production of greenhouse gases.

Bloomberg said: "Every once in a while our government or others in the country sounds like they're not on the agenda. But I think long term America has shown that it supports the United Nations. It supports the process that the U.N. is in favor of and championing."

Bloomberg said he hopes President Trump will reverse his decision to pull the United States out of the landmark treaty signed by more than 200 nations and entities.
