They represent several fields of study and come from 150 countries around the world. They approved a report that appeared in the publication Bioscience. It warns that the world will face "untold human suffering" if people do not make lasting changes in human activities that influence climate change. The new report is called "the World Scientists' Warning of a Climate Emergency". Three leaders of the study from the United States worked on the study with scientists from universities in South Africa and Australia. This is the first time a large group of scientists have jointly used the word "emergency" when talking about climate change. "In spite of 40 years of global climate negotiations (谈判) , we have generally conducted business as usual and have largely failed to deal with this difficult situation," the study said. "Climate change has arrived and is speeding up faster than many scientists expected." The report referred to 6 areas that the world needs to deal with immediately. The scientists appealed to nations to use energy more efficiently and cut their use of fossil fuels. They suggested that lawmakers approve taxes on the burning of carbon-based fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas. The scientists expressed support for women's rights and making family planning services reach all people. They said this would help to reduce unexpected changes in the size of the human population. The report urges (敦促) people to move toward more of a plant-based diet. Other areas of concern include preventing permanent loss of some plant and animal species in the forest. The report notes that the public should take strong action to move politicians to approve lasting policy changes.
