World Environment conference in San Francisco, the city where the United Nations was founded in 1945.
The signing ceremony on World Environment Day in the ornate rotunda at City Hall committed more than 50 of the world's largest cities to "build an ecologically sustainable, economically dynamic, and socially equitable future for our urban citizens," organizers said.
The accords call for 21 actions aimed at putting cities on a path to greener, cleaner, healthier environments for their current residents and the estimated 1 million people moving to cities each week.
Rotunda表示“圓形建筑物,圓形大廳,圓角黑體鉛字”,例如:The Capitol at Washington has a large rotunda.(華盛頓的國(guó)會(huì)大廈有一個(gè)圓形大廳。)
據(jù)悉,《綠色城市宣言》呼吁世界各城市積極參與和執(zhí)行《城市環(huán)境協(xié)定》中的21項(xiàng)行動(dòng)計(jì)劃,通過(guò)立法程序?qū)h(huán)境問(wèn)題納入重要的發(fā)展日程,從而有效控制污染,加強(qiáng)城市綠化。
