组长&翻译&注解：xuanfeng630Scientists say the effects of climate change could actually make breathing more difficult for many people. They expect rising temperatures to bring an increase in cases of asthma and allergies, as well as infectious and cardiovascular diseases.
Professor Kent Pinkerton says rising temperatures bring a host of conditions that can adversely affect people's health. For example, ozone levels may rise in urban areas. There may be more wildfires emitting smoke and soot. Desertification could increase and create more dust. There may also be a lot more pollen. And disease-carrying insects and animals may be more prevalent.
"Our greatest concern really centered around the fact that many of the pulmonary physicians and respiratory professionals are really not very well aware of the fact that climate change has an important impact on their patients."科学家称气候变化的影响可能会使很多人呼吸变得更加困难。他们预计气温上升会带来哮喘、过敏、传染病及冠心病例的增加。
Kent Pinkerton教授称气温上升会带来许多对人体健康不利的条件。例如，城市地区的臭氧含量会上升。也可能会有更多释放煤烟的野火发生。荒漠化可能会增加和制造更多沙尘。花粉也可能变得更多。携带疾病的昆虫和动物可能会变得更加普遍。
“许多肺病医师及呼吸道专家并没有真正意识到气候变化对他们的病人存在重要影响，这个事实才是我们最为关注的中心问题。”
