世界節(jié)假日博覽 第58期:世界氣象日

　　Every year on the 23rd of March, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) celebrates World Meteorological Day (WMD). This is the date in 1950 that the WMO was created. A year later, it became a specialized agency of the United Nations to observe the world’s weather patterns and report on environmental issues. WMD focuses on different themes each year to raise our awareness of how the weather impacts on our lives. Previous themes have been weather, climate and water in the information age; water and sustainable development; preventing and coping with natural disasters; and understanding the global impacts of the changing polar environments. All 188 member states of the WMO participate in World Meteorological Day.

　　每年的3月23日，世界氣象組織將慶祝世界氣象日。該節(jié)日是世界氣象組織在1950年所創(chuàng)辦的。一年之后，該組織成為了聯(lián)合國觀察全球氣候變化，以及報告環(huán)境問題的特殊機構。每年，世界氣象組織都會側重不同方面來提高人們對氣候變化的意識，氣候變化對人類生活造成了影響。之前的一些主題有：信息時代的天氣、氣候以及水資源;水以及可持續(xù)發(fā)展;預防以及對抗自然災害;極地環(huán)境變化對全球的影響。世界氣象組織的所有188個成員國都會參加世界氣象日的活動。

　　The WMO says its vision is “to provide world leadership in expertise and international cooperation in weather, climate, water resources and related environmental issues, andthereby contribute to the safety and well-being of people throughout the world, and to the economic benefit of all nations.” It says that the weather, our climate, and water “know no national boundaries” thus it is essential all countries cooperate to make sure we respect our planet and its resources. The WMO has helped increase our safety, protect us against natural disasters and safeguard the environment. It has a big task ahead in areas such as food security and water resources.
