[简答题]The Renaissance embraced, first of all, an impressive record of new achievements in art, literature, science, philosophy, education and religion. Although die foundation of many of these was classical, they soon expanded beyond the measure of Greek and Roman influence.

Better yet, scientists and policymakers have come up with effective though expensive countermeasures.
But that doesn’t mean these problems are anywhere close to being solved. The stratospheric ozone layer, for example, is still getting thinner, despite the 1987 international agreement known as the Montreal Protocol, which calls for a phaseout of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone-depleting chemicals by the year 2006.
CFCs--first fingered as dangerous in the 1970s by Sherwood Rowland and Mario Molina, two of this year’s Nobel--prizewinning chemists--have been widely used for refrigeration and other purposes. If uncontrolled, the CF
A. quick responses.
