话说,已经91岁高龄的英国女王最近搞了个大事情——向塑料宣战!



《每日电讯报》:英国女王向塑料宣战!

【夜读】忍无可忍了,他们终于向它宣战了!



女王的宣战很直接:在所有王室地盘上禁止使用塑料吸管和塑料瓶! 

The Queen has declared war on plastic, banning straws and bottles from the Royal estates.



女王奶奶都宣战了,白金汉宫自然得表个态~不仅重新制定了新的废品计划,更强调禁塑意愿十分强烈,可以说是最高级别的了。

Buckingham Palace outlined new waste plans and said there was a ‘strong desire to tackle the issue’ at the highest levels of the Royal household.



新规包括:



公共咖啡馆逐步淘汰塑料吸管,就连员工餐厅也不能使用;

The new measures include gradually phasing out plastic straws in public cafes and banning them altogether in staff dining rooms.



白金汉宫、温莎城堡以及爱丁堡荷里路德宫的厨师们只能使用陶瓷盘子,玻璃杯或可回收的纸杯。

Internal caterers at Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, and the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh will now only be allowed to use china plates and glasses, or recyclable paper cups.



所有王室系列咖啡厅的外卖包装必须由可降解材料制成。

Takeaway food items in the Royal Collection cafes must also now be made of compostable or biodegradable packaging.



申请王室认证的公司,要先证明自己没有污染环境。

Companies applying for Royal Warrants must also now prove they are not polluting the planet.



看来,这回女王奶奶是动真格的啦~



而促使女王对塑料开战的,就是下图中的这个男人——有英国世界自然纪录片之父之称的David Attenborough爵士。而且Attenborough和女王奶奶同岁哦~

据说,女王奶奶因为和Attenborough老爷子讨论其在制作的一部保护野生动物的纪录片后开始关注塑料问题。

It is thought that the Queen became personally interested in the problem of plastic after working with Sir David Attenborough on a conservation documentary dealing with wildlife in the Commonwealth.



唔,能在女王奶奶面前谈笑风生,Attenborough老爷子想必也不是邻家爷爷的人设……

老爷子今年91岁,是个经验丰富的电视台主持人。1926年5月8号在伦敦出生。

Sir David Attenborough is a 91-year-old veteran broadcaster, who was born on May 8, 1926, in Isleworth, London.



他最广为人知的是9部记录地球上动植物生命的系列纪录片。

He is best known for presenting the nine Life series – which surveyed animal and plant life on planet earth.



此外,在很多节目里都能听到老爷子的讲解,如《野生动物》(1977 - 2005),《自然世界》,《蓝色星球》(2001),《行星地球》(2006),《冰冻星球》(2011)等。

David is also known for narrating Wildlife On One (1977 - 2005), and over 50 episodes of Natural World. He later narrated The Blue Planet (2001), Planet Earth (2006) and Frozen Planet (2011).

老爷子是拿过黑白、彩色、高清和3D这4种格式的英国电影学院奖(BAFTAs)的唯一一人。

He is the only person to have won BAFTAs for programmes in black and white, colour, HD, and 3D.

数十年如一日和大自然打交道,Attenborough在纪录片中毫不掩饰的表达了对大自然的喜爱,以及对环境污染问题的痛心。



在《蓝色星球 2》中,老爷子把镜头对准了海洋塑料污染。

Sir David also made the case against plastic in the ocean in the recent series Blue Planet II.

据《每日电讯报》报道,全球每年生产超3亿吨塑料,其中约10%会进入海洋。据估计,塑料和浮游生物的比例已经高达1:2,到2050年,海洋中塑料垃圾的总重量可能将超过鱼类。

Each year more than 300 million tons of plastic are produced globally, and 10 per cent will end up in the sea. It is estimated that there is now a 1:2 ratio of plastic to plankton and, left unchecked, plastic will outweigh fish by 2050.

这些塑料垃圾会分解形成塑料微粒(microplastic),这些微粒永远不会消失,而是被鸟类和鱼类当做食物吞下,进而进入到食物链,最终也会被人类吃下。

These small pellets never go away, instead breaking down into smaller and smaller pieces, which in turn are ingested by birds and fish, entering into the foodchain with fatal effects.



对于经常吃海产品的人来说,每年可能吃下多达11000颗的塑料微粒。

专家们认为,随着时间的积累,这些人体内的塑料微粒会造成健康风险。



如果这样还不足以让人们提高环保意识,那么看完下面这些图片,相信大家会对塑料垃圾对海洋环境和生物造成的危害有个深刻的认识。



随手一扔的吸管,可能会跑进海龟的鼻子,这痛苦指数想想都疼……

信天翁们为了寻找食物飞了数千英里,有时会把塑料

当成食物吃掉,或喂给幼鸟。
