If we continue implementing policies to reduce emissions in the short term without any focus on developing the technology to achieve this, there is only one possible outcome: virtually no climate impact, but a significant dent in global economic growth, with more people in poverty, and the planet in a worse place than it could be.
如果我们继续在追求短期内削减碳排放量的政策上一意孤行，并且不把任何目光放在减排技术的提高之上，那么可能的后果就只有一个：气候变化的冲击还未到来，全球经济的发展速度就已经遭遇了显著衰退，更多人将身陷贫困之中，而我们的地球，只会变成一个比原先更加糟糕的地方。
