为了培养孩子们对地球的关爱与呵护，菲律宾近日通过了一项新法案，要求每个学生在毕业前都种植10棵树。根据法案细则，这条规定适用于所有想从小学、中学和大学毕业的学生。

The Graduation Legacy for the Environment Act was introduced by congressmanGary Alejano in 2016 in a bid to promote "inter-generational responsibility" for the environment. On May 15, 2019 it was officially passed, marking a huge step in the right direction towards a healthy planet.

2016年，国会议员盖瑞•亚历哈诺提出《毕业回馈环境法案》，旨在提高人们对环境的"代际责任"意识。该法案于2019年5月15日正式通过，这是朝着通往健康地球的正确方向迈出的一大步。

Couples to choose embryo

试管婴儿或可筛选智商

Couples undergoingIVFtreatment could be given the option to pick the "smartest"embryowithin the next 10 years, a leading US scientist has predicted. Stephen Hsu, senior vice president for research at Michigan State University, saidscientificadvances mean it will soon befeasibletoreliablyrank embryos according to potential IQ, posing profoundethicalquestions for society about whether or not the technology should be adopted.

美国一名权威科学家预计，未来10年内，做试管婴儿的夫妇或许能够选择"最聪明"的胚胎。美国密歇根州立大学主管科研的副校长徐道辉说，科学进步意味着人类不久就能够对胚胎的潜在智商给出可靠的评分，这项技术是否应该使用将是一个深刻的社会伦理问题。

Some in the UK take the view that prospective parents have a right to access such tests. "I don't think people should be deprived ofthat knowledge," said Prof Simon Fishel, the founder of Care Fertility. "What's wrong with ranking an embryo if you can rank a child?" he said.

在英国，一些人认为未来的父母有权进行此类检测。生育关怀组织的创始人西蒙•费舍尔教授说："我认为不应该剥夺人们对此的知情权。如果你能给孩子评分，那给胚胎评分又有什么错呢？"

Peter Donnelly, a professor of statistical science at the University of Oxford, said any such IQ predictions should be treated with "huge caution", adding: "I have grave misgivingsabout it on ethical grounds. I think it's a really bad idea."

牛津大学统计学教授彼得•唐纳利说，应该"十分谨慎"地对待此类智商预测。他说："出于伦理原因，我对此非常担忧。我认为这是一个非常糟糕的想法。"
