Italy’s farmers on Sunday called for Alaskan salmon, Californian nuts and Peruvian asparagus to be banished from the nation’s Christmas tables to support efforts to stop global warming.
義大利的農民週日要求將阿拉斯加鮭魚、加州堅果與秘魯蘆筍，從這個國家的耶誕餐桌上驅逐出去，以支持遏阻全球暖化的努力。
Instead, festive hosts looking to wow their guests should seek out locally-grown but less common fruit and vegetables such as prickly pears and persimmons or vintage varieties such as limoncello apples or madernassa pears, they advised.
而希望讓賓客讚嘆的歡宴東道主，反倒應尋求在地生產但較不普遍的蔬果，比如仙人掌與柿子，或檸檬蘋果酒或瑪德納薩梨子酒等各類釀酒，他們建議。
Although Italians continue to generally favour produce grown as locally as possible, a "strongly growing snob trend" means the end-of-year festivities generate demand for out-of-season luxuries such as Chilean cherries and melons from Guadeloupe, according to farmers’ organisation Coldiretti.
雖然義大利人仍普遍偏好盡可能在地生產的農產品，但「越來越強烈的勢利趨勢」，意味著這場年終慶典將引發對非當季昂貴農產品，比如智利櫻桃與瓜德羅普甜瓜的需求，農民組織「義大利國家農民聯合會」（Coldiretti）指出。
It calculated that one kilogram of peaches flown in from Chile generates 21.6 kg of carbon emissions, arguing that switching to zero-miles produce could significantly cut transport’s 40 percent share of total global emissions.
該組織計算1公斤從智利空運來的桃子將產生21.6公斤的碳排放，他們主張，轉而食用零英里（碳足跡）的農產品，將可大幅縮減在全球碳排放總量中佔40％的運輸碳排放。
Other products on the Coldiretti blacklist included Brazilian watermelons, green beans from Egypt and blackberries from Mexico.
其他被列入Coldiretti黑名單的農產品，還包括巴西的西瓜、埃及的綠豆，以及墨西哥的黑莓。
