17、e works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a safe place for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “Were not trying to save the animals，” he says. “Actually, were trying to save ourselves.”In the 1980s and 1990s the pop

18、ulation of Tibetan antelopes dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make money. Their living places were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.In order to save Tibetan antelopes, the Chinese government placed them under national protection. Zhaxi and volu

19、nteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope was removed

20、from the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection program since the threat to the Tibetan antelope has not yet disappeared.

In his words, “Theres no doubt that these wild cameras are important tools to learn new information on wildlife.” Harris said some images help scientists see the influences of climate (气候) change.Researchers with the Wyoming Migr

26、ation Initiative, or WMI, are using wild cameras along with Global Positioning System, or GPS. But WMI director Matthew Kauffman says as those devices are limited, so is the amount of information they can gather. However, cameras can be left in very wild areas for days, weeks or even months. They ca

27、n provide information on how many animals are moving over a given period of time.Putting those cameras in place requires careful planning. Wild videos can show details about animal behaviour. However, wild cameras have their problems too. Animals such as wolverines and bears sometimes attack them. S

32、t if the world food system stays on its current growth path, it will produce nearly 1.4 trillion metric tons of greenhouse gases over the next 80 years.That pollution is expected to come from fertilizers used in agriculture, mismanaged soil and food waste. Other causes include landclearing operation

33、s and deforestation (森林采伐). Researchers from the University of Minnesota and the University of Oxford in Britain led the study, which recently appeared in the publicationScience.The researchers predict that even if fossil fuel emissions (排放) were stopped now, emissions from the world food system wou

34、ld make it impossible to reach current international climate change targets. They say that emissions from food production alone could push world temperatures past 1.5 degrees Celsius by the middle of this century and above 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century. A main goal of the 2015 United N

35、ations Paris Agreement on climate change is to keep rises in the Earths temperature during this century to between 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius.
