Despite some gains, that gap – which, under the most optimistic scenario, amounts to the combined emissions of all the world’s cars, buses, and trucks – remains firmly in place post-Cancún. Indeed, no one should underestimate the magnitude of the challenge now facing South Africa, the host of next year’s talks, in terms of midwifing a new legally binding agreement to bridge this gap and securing the finance needed to bring the Green Fund into operation.
尽管已经取得了某些进展，上述差距（按照最乐观的估计也相当于全世界所有轿车、公共汽车和卡车排放的总和）仍然在后坎昆时代切实存在着。 事实上，任何人都不应低估明年会谈主办国南非所面临的挑战，在促成新的法定协议弥合既有差距，并获得让绿色基金投入运营的经费支持方面，南非所面临的挑战不可低估。
