2012世界水日宣传视频：世界缺水是因为我们缺粮
英语课
今年3月22日是第20个“世界水日”，联合国确定2012年“世界水日”的主题是“水与粮食安全”。缓解水资源危机，从节约粮食、优化膳食结构开始。
On the planet today There are over 7 BILLION people,
在今天的地球上，生活着70多亿人口
By 2050 we will be 9 BILLION to feed.
而到2050年，将要有90亿人口要吃饭
But did you know that
但您是否知道
Without water, no food can be produced.
没有水，哪来的粮食？
No water = No food.
没有水=没粮食
One person needs to drink 2 to 4 litres of water a day,
每天，每人需饮用2至4升水
We virtually EAT 2000 to 5000 litres embedded 1 in our daily food.
却随着食物实际“吃下去”2000至5000升水
To produce 1kg of wheat: 1,500 litres of water;
每生产1千克小麦需要1500升水
1kg of beef: 15,000 litres of water (10 TIMES MORE!)
每生产1千克牛肉却需要15000升水（高出10倍！）
90% of our total water consumption 2 goes to produce today's food.
用水总量中约90%都用于当前的粮食生产
In 2050, 2/3 of the world population could live under water stresses conditions.
到2050年，世界上三分之二的人口可能处于用水紧张的状况
And still 1/3 of the global food production is LOST o WASTED.
但尽管如此，全球粮食生产中却有三分之一遭到损失或浪费
From field to fork, water can be SAVED to produce MORE FOOD with LESS WATER.
从农田到餐桌，都可以节约用水，以便少用水，多打粮
But your dietary choices and your attitude also matter.
但是，您的饮食选择和您的态度也一样重要
YOU can make a difference, WE ALL can make a difference.
您可以有所作为，我们大家都可以有所作为
Adopt sustainable choices and stop wasting food.
选择可持续性膳食，别再浪费粮食
FOOD WASTED = WATER WASTED 浪费粮食=浪费水
