Now Finn, there is nothing I like more than tucking into a juicy steak, munching on a hamburger or chewing on a nice piece of roast beef.
Finn，你知道吗？大快朵颐吃下一块鲜嫩多吃的牛排，咬满满一大口汉堡，抑或细细品尝一块恰到好处的牛肉，这些简直是我的最爱没有之一。
It does sound good, doesn’t it? But meat eaters, like us, might need to think again about the amount we eat.
哇，听着好馋。不过，肉食者，比如咱俩，其实应该节制吃肉的总量了。
That’s right because in the programme today we’re discussing how eating meat can add to the problem of greenhouse gas.
今天的节目，就是关于吃肉与温室气体增加关系的讨论。
Greenhouse gas is a type of gas that stops heat escaping from the atmosphere and causes a greenhouse effect –it warms up our planet – and that leads to climate change.
温室气体，能够阻止热量散发到大气外，从而导致温室效应。而正是温室效应使我们的地球保持温暖并四季更替。
Yes, that’s it’s not a good thing. We have heard in the past about greenhouse gas being caused by pollution from factories…
是的，但温室效应并不完全都是好事。过去，我们常常讨论工业废气带来的温室效应，
… and from using containers of things like paint or perfume, which is kept under high pressure so that it can be sprayed – we call these aerosols.
或者讨论来自于气溶胶，即高压下会喷洒的油漆罐或者香水罐引发的温室效应。
But according to a recent report, the production of meat is also adding to the problem. We’ll talk more about this soon and looking at some related vocabulary, but not before we’ve set today’s question. Are you ready, Finn?
然而通过近些年的研究，温室问题的加重与肉类生产有极大关联。今天我们就来探探究竟，同时学习一些相关词汇。首先来看看今天的问题吧。Finn，你准备好了么？
Ready and waiting, Rob.
时刻准备着！
According to a study in America, how many tonnes of beef is produced globally every year?a) 59 million tonnesb) 69 million tonnesc) 79 million tonnes
根据美国一项研究，全球每年的牛肉总产量是多少？a）5900万吨b）6900万吨c） 7900万吨
Let’s go supersize and say 79 million tonnes.
选个最大的吧，7900万吨。
I’ll let you know the answer at the end of the programme.Let’s continue our discussion about the link between meat and greenhouse gases.
答案将在节目最后揭晓。现在继续刚才的话题，温室气体与肉类食品究竟有什么关系？
Research from Cambridge and Aberdeen universities estimates greenhouse gases from food production will go up 80% if meat and dairy consumption continues to rise at its current rate. ’Consumption’ here means the process of eating food.
来自剑桥大学和阿伯丁大学的一项研究表明，如果肉类和奶制品消费继续以目前的速度增长，来自于食物生产的温室气体将会上涨到总量的80%。Consumption这里指的是人们消费食物的过程。
So more and more of us are eating meat – there is a surge. Let’s find out exactly why from BBC Environment Analyst, Roger Harrabin. See if you can hear why meat production is causing the problem …
我们的食肉量会越来越多，吃肉成为了一股浪潮。来听听环境分析师 Roger Harrabin怎么说吧。试试看你能不能听懂为何肉类生产会引发环境问题。
