New Zealand’s new prime minister Jacinda Ardern has committed the country to erasing its carbon footprint by the middle of the century. The Labour leader, who becomes the world’s youngest female leader, said: "I do anticipate that we will be a government, as I said during the campaign, that will be absolutely focused on the challenge of climate change."
紐西蘭新任總理賈欣達．阿爾登承諾，將在本世紀中以前達成紐西蘭「碳足跡」為零的目標。這位成為全球最年輕女性領袖的「勞工黨」黨魁表示：「一如我在選戰期間所說的，我預期我們能組閣，並全力聚焦於迎戰氣候變遷。」
The 2050 target would put New Zealand in the vanguard of climate action. Sweden aims for net zero emissions by 2045. Norway has bid to be carbon neutral by 2030. Both nations will rely on offsetting residual emissions by buying international carbon credits and planting trees.
這項2050年目標將讓紐西蘭名列氣候行動的先鋒。瑞典計畫2045年達成「淨排放量」為零。挪威有意在2030年前達成「碳中和」。這兩國都將透過購買國際「碳權」和種植樹木等手段，抵銷多餘的排放量。
The US, Canada, Mexico, UK, France, Germany and the EU have all committed to deep emissions cuts by the middle of the century, but not net zero.
美國、加拿大、墨西哥、英國、法國、德國和歐盟，都承諾在本世紀中以前致力減少（溫室氣體）排放量，但並未答應「淨排放量」為零。
