A report shows that, in this century, the influence of climate change "will slow down economic growth, and further cause new food problems". The most important thing is to reduce(降低)and deal with the bad results.
Field said, "If you look around the world at the losses(损失)that have been caused by recent floods, droughts and other extreme weather, it's very clear that we're not prepared for the kinds of extreme weather events. Extreme weather becomes a
threat to nature, humans, and society. But I believe at any time we could make smart decisions that help us deal with dangers more successfully now and handle them better in the future."
The report also compares(比较)the dangers in a future world where high emissions(排放)persist with those in a world where emissions are significantly reduced. "There's really a big difference between what those worlds look like. Making the changes necessary to stop major influences will take a long time," Field said. "The dangers go up as you wait."
