But slower population growth can not only lessen vulnerability to climate change impacts, it also has the potential to significantly reduce future greenhouse gas emissions.
但是减缓人口增长不但能减轻气候变化影响的严重性,也具有显著减少未来温室气体排放的潜力。

Compared with carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide is 300-fold more potent in terms of its warming potential, though carbon dioxide is a far more prevalent greenhouse gas.
虽然二氧化碳是更为普遍的温室气体,但与二氧化碳相比,一氧化二氮是其致暖潜力的300倍以上。

I have to wonder: Do current estimates of potential reductions in greenhouse gasses take into account the extent to which broadband might reduce commuting and global travel for business?
