    该段录音首先指出IPCC认为至少等1000年格陵兰岛冰盖才会融化,但是Lenton’s group表示300年内该冰盖就会断裂,那时亿万人将会受到影响,从录音最后Lenton提到的“格陵兰岛冰盖断裂很快就会变得无法避免,但是我们并不认为我们已经度过了临界点”,可见该段录音主要是想提高人们的环保意识。
    【录音原文】
    The IPCC says the Greenland ice sheet will take at least l, 000 years to melt. But Lenton’s group—whose members include John Schellnhuber, the chief scientist on climate change at the recent G8 meeting in Germany—says the sheet could break up within 300 years, raising sea levels by 7 meters. This would flood hundreds of millions of people or more out of their homes. “We are close to being committed to a collapse of the Greenland ice sheet,” Lenton says. “But we don’t think we have passed the tipping point yet.”
