To avoid dangerous climate change we will have to limit the total amount of carbon we inject into the atmosphere, not just the emission rate in any given year.

而我们人类为了避免气候发生这样危险的变化，就必须限制排放的温室气体总量，而不是仅仅限制排放率来延长使用期限。

The net result will be a progressive convergence of nations to a declining per capita emission rate.

最终的结果将是各国逐渐趋于一个相同的并下降的人均排放量。

Fund pollutants — pollutants for which the environment has some absorptive capacity, if the rate of emission exceeds this capacity, then fund pollutants accumulate.

储备污染——污染物在特定环境有一些收缩性容量，如果排放率超过这个容量，此时储备污染就堆积了。

The team of physicists was investigating the possibility of using radioactive decay rates to generate random numbers, since the rate is constant but the emission of individual atoms is unpredictable, it seemed like a perfect fit.

Stacking up the numbers, he realised that human activities were adding CO2 to the atmosphere in a quantity and rate equivalent to all natural processes of absorption or emission of the gas.
