2020年10月14日是第51屆世界標(biāo)準(zhǔn)日。為了彰顯標(biāo)準(zhǔn)在資源保護(hù)、綠色發(fā)展方面的重要意義，國(guó)際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化組織（ISO）、國(guó)際電工委員會(huì)（IEC）、國(guó)際電信聯(lián)盟（ITU）將今年世界標(biāo)準(zhǔn)日的主題確定為“標(biāo)準(zhǔn)保護(hù)地球(Protecting theplanet with standards)”,并聯(lián)合發(fā)布了2020年世界標(biāo)準(zhǔn)日祝詞。
Earth, a finite vessel of life in the vastness of our solar system. Life on earth depends on energy coming from the sun. However, over the last century human and large-scale industrial activities of our modern civilization have added to earth’s natural greenhouse gases. They negatively impact our climate and with it all forms of life. At the same time rapid population growth and broad urbanization call for the responsible use of limited resources.
To reduce human impact on our planet, we need the political will, concrete action and the right tools. International standards are one such tool. The international standards prepared by IEC, ISO and ITU take into account tried and true solutions to technical challenges. They help share expertise and expert know-how broadly within developed and developing countries alike. Standards cover all aspects of energy savings, water and air quality. They lay down standardized protocols and methods of measurement. Their broad use helps reduce the environmental impact of industrial production and processes, facilitates the reuse of limited resources and improves energy efficiency.
