Air pollution does not respect national boundaries and environmental degradation will lead to mass migration in the future, said a leading barrister in the wake of a landmark migration ruling, as experts warned that government action must be taken as a matter of urgency.

一位頂尖大律師在一項具有里程碑意義的移民裁決後稱,空氣污染不受國界限制,環境惡化將在未來導致大規模移民。專家警告稱,事態緊急,政府必須採取行動。

 

Sailesh Mehta, a barrister specialising in environmental cases, said: "As global warming makes parts of our planet uninhabitable, mass migration will become the norm. Air and water pollution do not respect national boundaries."

專門處理環保案件的律師塞利斯.梅塔說:「隨著全球暖化導致地球上的一些地區變得不適宜居住,大規模移民將成為常態。空氣和水污染不受國界限制。」

 

The comments follow a decision by a French court this week, which is believed to be the first time environment was cited by a court in an extradition hearing.

梅塔發表這些評論前,法國一家法院本週做出一項裁決,據信這是法院首次在引渡聽證會上援引環境做為理由。

 

The appeals court in Bordeaux overturned an expulsion order against a 40-year-old Bangladeshi man with asthma because he would face "a worsening of his respiratory pathology due to air pollution in his country of origin."

波爾多的上訴法院推翻對一名40歲孟加拉男子的驅逐令,因為他「在本國將面臨空氣污染導致的哮喘病惡化。」
