Christopher Kettle, Biodiversity International’s director for forest genetic resources and restoration in Rome, says that the need for infrastructure — things such as mechanisms for collecting and storing seeds, and nurseries to raise seedlings — might be most desperate here because many trees are ‘masting’ species, which don’t produce seeds every year.
国际生物多样性中心驻罗马的森林遗传资源与恢复主任克里斯托弗·凯特尔表示，这里对基础设施——诸如收集和储存种子的机制以及培育幼苗的苗圃——的需求可能最为迫切，因为许多树木属于“大年结实”物种，并非每年都结种子。
“This is a really, really critical issue for restoration in Southeast Asia, because many of the most important timber species and tree species — the ones that will lock up the most carbon — they’re all masting species.”
“对东南亚的恢复工作来说，这是一个非常非常关键的问题，因为许多最重要的用材树种和树木物种——那些能封存最多碳的物种——都是大年结实物种。”

“If you don’t look at the soil at the start, you can spend a lot of money and time putting in species that aren’t going to survive there.”
“如果一开始不考察土壤，你可能会花费大量金钱和时间去种植那些在那里无法存活的物种。”
Britain has relatively few butterfly species compared with mainland Europe and 80% are in decline, mostly because intensive chemical farming has reduced many species to tiny fragments of habitat and small nature reserves.
与欧洲大陆相比，英国的蝴蝶种类相对较少，而且其中80%正在减少，这主要是因为集约化的化学农业使许多物种只能栖身于零星的小块栖息地和小型自然保护区。

Global heating is benefiting some species but others are too isolated to find suitable new habitat, and gardening habits — paving over gardens and using pesticides — aren’t helping either.
全球变暖使一些物种受益，但另一些物种过于孤立，无法找到合适的新栖息地，而园艺习惯——给花园铺上地面、使用杀虫剂——也无济于事。
A children’s author and poet who had become a keen amateur photographer, Peters watched the butterflies and idly wondered if he could capture them in flight. It swiftly became an obsession as he recovered from a successful operation to remove the cancer. In recent summers, he has travelled the length and breadth of Britain to photograph all 58 native species of butterfly. Now the fruits of those summers have been published in a beautiful new book.
彼得斯是一位儿童作家和诗人，后来成了一名热心的业余摄影师。他看着那些蝴蝶，随意地想自己能否拍下它们飞行的样子。在成功切除癌症的手术后康复期间，这个念头很快变成了一种痴迷。最近几个夏天，他走遍英国各地，拍摄了全部58种本土蝴蝶。如今，这几个夏天的成果已汇编成一本精美的新书出版。
The shallows provide homes for hundreds of species while storing floodwaters, filtering pollutants from water, and protecting nearby communities from potentially destructive storm surges.
这片浅水区为数百种物种提供了栖息地，同时还能蓄积洪水、过滤水中污染物，并保护附近社区免受可能具有破坏性的风暴潮侵袭。

以更宽广的视角看看我们这个物种在宇宙中的位置，就会清楚地发现，我们极有可能再生存数万年，甚至数十万年。
Look up Homo sapiens in the “Red List” of threatened species of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and you will read: “Listed as Least Concern as the species is very widely distributed, adaptable, currently increasing, and there are no major threats resulting in an overall population decline.”
在世界自然保护联盟（IUCN）的濒危物种“红色名录”中查找智人，你会读到：“列为无危物种，因为该物种分布极广、适应性强、目前数量正在增长，且不存在导致其总体数量下降的重大威胁。”
