Sensors in Hawaii recorded Earth’s atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) passing 415 parts per million (ppm) for the first time since before the ancient dawn of humanity.
据夏威夷的传感器记录,地球大气中的二氧化碳(CO2)浓度自人类远古时期至今首次突破了百万分之415。
“Not just in recorded history, not just since the invention of agriculture 10,000 years ago. Since before modern humans existed millions of years ago. We don’t know a planet like this.”
“这个首次不仅仅是在历史记录上,也不仅仅是1万年前农业出现以后,而是现代人类出现之前的百万年前至今。以前地球从未出现过这种情况。”
维密秀考虑停播
维密官方宣布要“重新思考”一年一度的维密秀。据CNBC报道,L Brands公司首席执行官Les Wexner在发给员工的内部信中说网络电视可能不再“适合”这一大秀了。
外媒报道
The show aired on CBS and ABC for nearly 20 years, but ratings took a hit in recent years. This past December saw its lowest ratings ever, with just 3.3 million viewers. The year prior, it had 5 million. Many viewers take issue with the fashion show’s lack of body sizes and diversity, as well as failure to include trans models.
维密秀在美国广播公司(ABC)和哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)播出了近20年,但近些年收视率下滑,去年12月份收视率创新低,观众人数仅为330万,前一年的观众人数为500万。很多观众反感维密秀身材单一,缺乏多样性,还拒绝接受变性模特。
In the fall, Australian model Robyn Lawley penned a viral post that called on viewers to boycott the once heralded event. “Victoria’s Secret has dominated the space for almost 30 years by telling women there is only one kind of body beautiful,” she wrote on Instagram. “It’s time Victoria’s Secret recognized the buying power and influence of women of ALL ages, shapes, sizes, and ethnicities.”
去年秋天,澳大利亚模特Robyn Lawley发布了一篇引发热议的文章,号召观众抵制这一早就做好宣传的盛事。她在Instagram上写道:“维密掌控这一领域近30年,向女性宣扬只有一种身材是漂亮的,是时候让维密知道各个年龄段、各种身型、各种身材和各个种族女性的购买力和影响力了。”

塔可钟要开酒店了
是的,你没看错,塔可钟,那个卖墨西哥卷饼的塔可钟,要开酒店。
外媒报道
Taco Bell announced that it is debuting The Bell, a hotel and resort in Palm Springs, California, this summer, throwing open its doors on August 9.
塔可钟宣布他们现在推出The Bell品牌,这是个酒店及度假村品牌,位于加州的棕榈泉,开业时间是8月9号。
As one would expect from your favorite chalupa-purveyors-turned-hoteliers, The Bell will feature decor “inspired by tacos and fueled by fans.”
这位人见人爱的“南美船夫跨界变身的旅店老板”给出的消息并没有超出大部分人的预期,The Bell 的装潢灵感来自塔可,并且里面会有超多的装饰性扇子。
That means “everything from guest rooms to breakfast and poolside cocktails will be infused with a Taco Bell twist,” according to a company statement.
根据一份官方声明,这意味着“里面的一切,从客房到早餐到泳池边的鸡尾酒,都会充满了塔可钟风情。”
