东西问｜短评："治疗"地球，需"中西医"会诊 中新社天津12月22日电 题："治疗"地球，需"中西医"会诊 中新社记者 孙玲玲 夏宾 而强调整体关联的"天人合一"以及"天人相应"思想，则似中医，讲究系统的辨证施治，中国先哲在千年 以前就将天地万物视为一个有机整体，强调人与自然的和谐共生，这种系统性思维，与地球系统科学的 整体性天然契合。 西方科学思维提供了不可或缺的可量化框架，但面对复杂交织的气候、生态、社会问题，其"分科而 治"的精细模式难免"见树不见林"；东方哲学中的系统观，恰能弥补其在整体关联性认知上的存在局 限。机遇与挑战就在于，如何将"天人合一""天人相应"的智慧，转化为可验证、可操作的科学语言和模 型。 答案是中西合璧，"数"与"道"融合将为地球治理开出"新药方"。"中国大学地球系统科学联盟"用意就在 搭建平台，促进东方系统思维与西方分析方法的深度融合。这不是简单的叠加，而是一场科学范式的革 命——从传统单学科的"分科而治"转向跨学科、跨机构的"四诊合参""系统诊疗"。 中国对人与自然和谐共生的文化追求，与西方科学中可度量的环境安全阈值相结合，既保留了西方科学 严谨的"量化"优势，又注入了东方哲学 ...

Core Insights - Ocean acidification has reached critical levels, posing a significant threat to marine ecosystems and coastal economies, as it has exceeded the "planetary boundaries" five years ago [1][2] - The average pH level of the global ocean environment is very close to the threshold of ocean acidification, with carbonate concentration in seawater being 20% lower than pre-industrial levels as of 2020 [1] Group 1 - Ocean acidification is described as a "twin evil" of the climate crisis, resulting from the chemical reaction of carbon dioxide with water, leading to a decrease in seawater pH [1] - A recent study involving multiple research institutions indicates that 60% of ocean areas at depths of 200 meters have already surpassed safe acidification thresholds [2] - The decline in pH levels adversely affects the growth and survival of marine organisms such as corals and oysters, which struggle to maintain their calcium structures [2] Group 2 - Experts emphasize that reducing carbon dioxide emissions is the only viable solution to mitigate ocean acidification, with a focus on the most vulnerable species and regions [2] - The urgency of the situation is highlighted by the statement from the chair of the International Alliance to Combat Ocean Acidification, indicating that the future of humanity depends on timely action [2]
