歐盟與加拿大為海洋觀測活動取得2.11億歐元資金
9月23日—歐盟執委會主席范德賴恩（Ursula von der Leyen）與加拿大總理卡尼（Mark Carney）週三在紐約聯合國大會表示，歐盟執委會與加拿大已為一項新啟動的海洋觀測倡議，取得至少2.11億歐元（2.4億美元）的資金承諾。Sept 23 - The European Commission and Canada have secured at least €211 million ($240 million) in funding pledges for a newly launched ocean observation initiative, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Wednesday at the UN General Assembly in New York.
「全球海洋觀測系統OceanEye國際聯盟」（OceanEye International Alliance for the Global Ocean Observing System）目前已有30個國家成員與歐盟加入，目標是支持航行安全、天氣預報、氣候預測、海岸防護及海事經濟。The OceanEye International Alliance for the Global Ocean Observing System, which so far comprises 30 country members and the European Union, aims to support safe navigation, weather forecasting, climate prediction, coastal protection and the naval economy.
• 范德賴恩說：「我們必須傾聽海洋，也必須更加保護海洋。然而，海洋觀測正承受巨大壓力。提供這些資料的全球網絡面臨嚴重資金缺口。」• "We must listen to the ocean and we must protect it much more. And yet, ocean observation is under huge pressure. The global network that provides this data faces a critical funding shortfall," von der Leyen said.
• 她表示，歐盟已以9200萬歐元的種子資金提高對海洋觀測活動的挹注；加拿大總理卡尼則說，加拿大將在5年內為此投入8200萬加幣（5800萬美元）。• She said the EU had increased its funding for ocean observation activities with a seed round of €92 million, while Canada's Carney said that his country would spend 82 million Canadian dollars ($58 million) over five years for this purpose.
• 這筆資金將透過發展技術，以及在公海與太空增設感測器和衛星等更多設備，支持觀測網絡。• The funding will support the observing networks by developing technologies, as well as adding more equipment in the high seas and in space such as sensors and satellites.
