Today's news word comes from a story about the United Nations Climate Conference. It was held in Paris late last year and included 195 countries: emissions.
今天的新闻词汇来自于联合国气候大会。它于去年年底在巴黎召开，一共包括195个国家：排放物。
Paris is just the beginning. The deal has countries updating their emissions figures and their commitments every five years.
巴黎只是个开始。协议规定每个国家要每五年更新一次排放物数据以及所做的努力。
Emissions are gases that are released into the air.
排放物就是被排放到空气中的气体。
Emissions come from certain fuels, industries and products.
排放物来自于某些燃料，工业或者产品。

One example is carbon dioxide. In large amounts, carbon dioxide causes pollution in the Earth's atmosphere.
