2020考研MTI双语时事:东京奥运奖牌来自电子垃圾

“Congratulations, you’re one of the most elite athletes to have ever graced planet Earth. Here’s a broken iPhone 4s and part of an old Game Boy Advance for your troubles.”

“恭喜你，你是世界上较优秀的运动员之一，曾经为地球增光添彩。这是一台旧iPhone4S和一个旧GBA游戏机的碎片，作为你努力的奖励。”

OK, so that’s not exactly the sales pitch that the Tokyo Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, aka Tokyo 2020, is probably going for — but it’s not far from the truth, either. And that’s a good thing.

好吧，事实上这并不是奥运会和残奥会东京组委会，也就是2020年东京奥运会可能要做的销售宣传-但这也离事实不远。也是件好事。

Announced on Friday, February 8, the brains behind next year’s Summer Olympics revealed that they are on target to be able to forge all winning athletes’ medals from recycled electronics waste, consisting of discarded and obsolete electronic devices. This includes smartphones, digital cameras, handheld games consoles, and laptops.

2月8日星期五，明年夏季奥运会的组织者宣布，他们的目标是用回收的电子垃圾(包括废弃的和过时的电子设备)锻造出所有获奖运动员的奖牌。这包括智能手机、数码相机、掌上游戏机和笔记本电脑。

The project to collect ewaste for the purpose was launched in Japan in April 2017, with thousands of collection centers established across the country. In all, some 47,488 tons of discarded devices have been collected by municipal authorities in Japan, in addition to more than 5 million used cell phones. By June 2018, the target amount of metal necessary for creating the Olympics bronze medals had already been gathered. By October 2018, so too had 93.7 percent of the necessary gold and 85.4 percent of silver. That puts the project firmly on track to achieve its goal.

该电子垃圾收集项目于2017年4月启动，日本全国范围内建立起了数千个收集中心。目前，日本各自治省共收集有47488吨的废弃电子设备，除此之外还有500万台使用过的手机。截止至2018年7月，制造奥运会铜牌奖牌所需要的金属量已经开始饱和。至2018年10月，打造金牌银牌所需要的金、银也分别达到了93.7%、85.4%。如此一来，该项目能够坚定地按照计划实施，完成目标。
