||1:In 2011, for the first time, renewables were the second-biggest source of electricity generated in Scotland, accounting for 27%, behind nuclear power but ahead of coal and gas; in England, renewables generated only 6% of the total.||2:Stand, buffeted, on Eaglesham Moor and you get an inkling of why: around a quarter of all Europe’s wind energy crosses Scotland’s land mass and surrounding waters.||3:Factor in its potential in tidal and wave energy, plus an expertise in North Sea oil and gas that can be transferred to greener industries, and the notion of Scotland as a “Saudi Arabia of renewables” does not seem too far-fetched.

||1:2011年，可再生能源的发电量第一次占据了苏格兰总发电量的27%，成为苏格兰电力的第二大来源——位于核电之后，煤气电力之前；而在英格兰，可再生能源的发电量只占据了6%。||2:如果你置身于伊格尔沙姆沼泽，也许就能对其原因略窥一二了，全欧洲的风能大约有四分之一是从苏格兰的陆地和周围水域穿过的。||3:正是因为有它潜在的潮汐能和波能，再加上能将北海里的油气资源转移到绿色产业中的专利技术，苏格兰被称为“可再生能源中的沙特阿拉伯”也就不难理解了。

||1:WHEN an offshore well stops producing oil, what should be done with the rig?||2:One option is to haul it ashore, break it up and recycle it. This is expensive.||3:For a big, deep-water oil or gas platform, it can cost $200m.||4:Just hiring a derrick barge massive enough to do the job can cost $700,000 a day.||5:But there is an alternative: simply leave most of the structure where it is.||6:That is what you would expect a greedy oil firm to do: despoil the ocean just to save a lousy few million dollars.||7:The surprise is, the cheap option may actually be greener .

||1:当海上油井停止产油，那我们该怎样处置钻塔呢？||2:其中一个做法就是将其拉上岸，分解再重新循环利用。但其费用昂贵。||3:一个大型的深海石油或天然气平台大约花费2亿美金。||4:租一艘井架驳船就足够搞定，其费用为每天70万美元。||5:还有另外一个选择：放任其不管。||6:而那样做的只会是贪婪的石油公司，他们打劫海洋，省下几百万。||7:然而，让人吃惊的是，最便宜的选择也许是最环保的。

||1:BRITISH air is much clearer than it once was: in 1952 one “pea souper” smog in London(see photo) caused the deaths of around 4,000 people in a week.||2:But it is not as clean as it could be.||3:On April 29th the Supreme Court ordered the next government to come up with a plan by the end of the year to reduce the amount of nitrogen dioxide (NO-2), a noxious gas produced by diesel engines, in the atmosphere.||4:The judgment could have big implications for several large infrastructure projects.||5:It also suggests how, after years of campaigning by greener types, dirty air is finally becoming a political issue.

||1:回想1952年，伦敦全城弥漫着黄色浓雾，一周内导致约4000人失去生命。||2:如今，英国的空气质量变好了许多，但仍有“尽善尽美”的空间。||3:4月29日，英国最高法院责令下届政府年底前制定旨在减少大气中二氧化氮（柴油机制造的一种有毒气体）含量的方案。||4:这一裁决可能对几项大型基建工程产生巨大影响。||5:同时，它也展现了环境污染由多届竞选者打出环保招牌，最终上升为政治问题的过程。

||1:Much of the slowdown is the result of fumes from diesel cars, which were championed by successive governments because they use less fuel and thus produce less carbon dioxide than petrol cars.||2:In 2001 only 14% of all cars ran on diesel; by 2013 the proportion had increased to 35%. (Greener “hybrid” and electric cars have increased ninefold since 2006, but account for just 0.5% of the entire fleet.)||3:Second-hand cars are particularly noxious, but even newer ones have not been as clean as hoped.||4:Many cars that belched out few pollutants in tests produced more when on the roads.

||1:下降速度放缓的大部分原因在于柴油汽车排放的尾气—这为历任政府所支持，因为柴油汽车耗用更少的能源，比汽油汽车排放更少的二氧化碳。||2:2001年，仅14%的汽车使用柴油。2013年，这个比例上涨到了35%。（更绿色的“混合动力”和电瓶车自2006年以来增加了九倍，但仅占汽车总量的0.5%。）||3:二手汽车尤其有害，但新车也没所期望的那样清洁。||4:很多车在污染物排放测试中排放量低，车在上路时却排放了更多。

||1:There is a strong environmental case for the tax, which helps to reduce pollution and congestion.||2:Drivers may delight in cheaper fuel, but not if they have to sit in miles of traffic queues and collectively hurt the environment.||3:And unlike some other taxes, fuel duty is easy to collect.||4:It is far less toxic than road pricing or congestion charges. It is a fairer tax than the vehicle excise duty: those who travel the farthest pay the most.||5:This also makes it greener , says Stephen Joseph of the Campaign for Better Transport, a lobby group.||6:And the tax is lucrative: each year fuel duty brings in around 27 billion, making it the sixth-largest source of government revenue.||7:Mr Osborne's policy may yet be put into reverse.

||1:征收燃油税很大程度上是考虑环境因素的结果，有助于减少环境污染和交通拥堵。||2:人们乐于使用更便宜的燃料，但绝不希望因此困于冗长的交通拥挤而造成对环境的集体伤害。||3:与其他税收不一样，燃油税很容易征收。||4:它比道路收费和交通拥堵费无害的多，也比根据旅行路程来征收的汽车消费税公平的多。||5:一名来自游说组织 the Campaign for Better Transport的成员斯蒂芬·约瑟夫说道，燃油税也更加环保。||6:这一税收也带来了十分丰厚的利润：每年产生270亿燃油税，是政府收入的第六大来源。||7:而奥斯本的政策可能会逆转这一情况。
