要倡导绿色低碳生活，有效发挥森林、草原、湿地、海洋、土壤、冻土的固碳作用，要加强应对气候变化国际合作。----中央财经委员会第九次会议Japan'sgovernmentannouncedTuesdayitwouldstartreleasingtreatedradioactivewaterfromthewreckedFukushimanuclearplantintothePacificOceanintwoyears.

日本政府4月13日宣布，两年后开始将损毁的福岛核电站的放射性污水排放入太平洋。It'samovethat'sfiercelyopposedbyfishermen,residentsandJapan'sneighbors.

此举遭到日本本国渔民、居民以及邻国的强烈反对。【词汇讲解】Wreck作动词时表示“破坏、损坏、损毁”等意思，比如：Ourgreenhousewaswreckedinlastnight'sstorm.（昨晚的暴风雨把我们的温室给毁了）；所以上文中的wreckedFukushimanuclearplant就是指“被损毁的福岛核电站”，如果表达完整可以说Fukushimanuclearplantthatwaswreckedbytheearthquakeandtsunamiin2011。Wreck用作名词的时候就可以表示“（已经损毁的汽车、船只等）残骸”，比如：Diversexploringthewreckmanagedtosalvagesomecoinsandjewellery.（发掘船只残骸的潜水队员抢回来了一些钱币和珠宝）。

“如果我们在面包和意大利面食中使用10%的海藻，而不是小麦，就能省下100万公顷的土地，消除所有与之相关的二氧化碳排放，同时，还能减少宝贵的淡水资源短缺的压力。”
