Pludselig skærer en sirene gennem stilheden. BA-BU! BA-BU!
Then, suddenly, the sound of a siren broke the silence. PAM-POM! PAM-POM!
En brandbil kører tæt forbi ham. Vruumm!
A fire engine went rushing by: whoom!
En søjle af sort røg stiger op mod himlen.
A forest fire must have started, right outside Merlin City!
Tom er lige ved at skrige.
What a disaster!
- En skovbrand i Dankøbing skov!
Tom suddenly felt very anxious.
Tom kommer til at tænke på sin ven, ræven Lilli.
He thought of his friend Lila the fox.
Han håber af hele sit hjerte, at hun ikke er blevet fanget i flammerne.
He hoped with all his heart that she hadnt been trapped by the flames.
Han skynder sig hen imod brandmændene.
He hurried off in the direction of the fire.
De ligner krigere, der kæmper mod et orange uhyre!
The firemen looked like warriors in armour, fighting an orange monster!
Deres lange slanger sprøjter tonsvis af vand på flammerne, og der er tyk sort røg alle vegne.
Their long hoses were spraying tons of water onto the blaze and there was thick black smoke everywhere.
Røgen får Tom til at hoste, så han holder sin T-shirt op for munden.
It was getting into Toms throat and making him choke, so he covered his mouth with his T-shirt.
- Branden er for voldsom! råber en af brandmændene. - Vi har ikke nok vand i brandbilerne!
“The fires too big! We wont have enough water in the fire engines!”
Chefbrandmanden kigger ned mod åen.
The Chief Fireman turned and looked towards the river.
Han ser meget bekymret ud.
There was a very solemn expression on his face.
- I denne tørke er der heller ikke nok vand i åen! - Det er frygteligt! råber han.
“With all this dry weather, theres not enough water in the river either”he said.
Tom ser sig hurtigt omkring. - Lilli!
Tom glanced quickly all around him.“Lila!
Hvor er du? råber han. - Lilli!
Where are you?”he yelled.
LILLI!
“Lila! LILAAAA!”
I det øjeblik kommer Lilli løbende hen til ham og gnider sig mod hans ben.
At that very moment, Lila the fox came running up to him and brushed against his legs.
- Å, Lilli!
“Oh, Lila!
Jeg var så bange for, at der var sket dig noget!
Im so glad youre safe!”said Tom.
Men Lilli ser stadig skrækslagen ud.
But Lila still looked terrified.
Hun bliver ved med at gnide snuden mod Toms ben og dreje rundt om sig selv.
She kept nuzzling Toms legs and turning round and round in circles.
Hun tager fat i buksebenet på en af brandmændene. Det er Max.
Then she grabbed the trouser leg of one of the firemen, whose name was Max.
Han knæler ned ved siden af ræven.
He knelt down beside her.
- Hvad er der lille ven? spørger han. - Hvad prøver du at fortælle os?
“What is it, my pet?”he asked.“What are you trying to tell us?”
Det ser ud som om, at hun siger: Kom!
She seemed to be saying:“Come with me!
Følg med mig!
Follow me!”
Hun springer ind i flammerne og forsvinder hen ad en smal sti mellem træerne.
Then off she dashed, quick as an arrow, towards the blazing fire.
Bag hende lukker flammerne sig igen som et gardin.
She disappeared down a narrow path among the trees, and a curtain of flames closed behind her.
Max følger efter med hurtige skridt.
Max followed, taking great strides to keep up with her.
Han bryder gennem flammegardinet og forsvinder ud af syne.
Breaking through the curtain of fire he too disappeared from sight.
- LILLI! råber han. - VÆR FORSIGTIG!!
“LILA!”he shouted: “BE CAREFUL!!”
- Du skal ikke være bange, siger han. - Max er den bedste brandmand i hele landet.
“Dont worry”he said: “Max is the best fireman in the whole country!
Lilli er i gode hænder.
Lila is in good hands!
Men vi har brug for vand, og det skal gå hurtigt!
Still... we need water, and quickly!”
- Jeg ved, hvor der er en hemmelig kilde! udbryder han. - I den grotte derovre!
“I know where theres a secret spring!”he said. Its in that cave over there!”
- Er du sikker? spørger chefbrandmanden.- Ja! råber Tom.
“Are you sure?”asked the Chief Fireman.“Yes, I am!”shouted Tom.
- Okay! indvilger han. Så fører vi slangen der over.
“Right!”he said: “Well take the hose over there.
Nå min dreng, vis mig, hvor kilden er!
Lead me to the spring, my lad!
Hvad hedder du forresten?
By the way, whats your name?”
- Tom, siger Tom, mens de løber over mod grotten.
“Tom”, said Tom, and the two of them set off running towards the cave.
- Hvorfor er vejret så varmt, spørger Tom, mens de løber. - De sagde i fjernsynet, at...
“Why is the weather so hot just now?”asked Tom, as they ran.“On TV they said...”
- Ja, jeg hørte det også, svarer chefbrandmanden. - Det her er ikke nogen tilfældig brand, Tom.
“Yes, I heard that too”said the Chief. “You see, Tom, the problem is that the world is getting warmer.
Jorden bliver varmere.
The climate is changing, so were getting heat waves like this one.
Klimaet ændrer sig, og så sker det, at vi får hedebølger som denne og stormvejr og oversvømmelser og andre naturkatastrofer.
And storms, and floods, and all sorts of other natural disasters!
På Nordpolen og på Sydpolen smelter isen, og i bjergene smelter gletsjerne.
The ice at the north and south poles is melting, and so are the glaciers on high mountains like the Alps.
Smeltevandet løber ned i floderne og ud i havet, så vandstanden stiger.
The melted water runs off into the rivers and down to the sea, so the sea level is rising.
Øer og kystområder risikerer nogle steder at forsvinde i havet, mens der derimod andre steder dannes ørken, hvis temperaturen fortsætter med at stige!
Some islands and coasts are likely to disappear under the water! At the same time, if the climate goes on getting hotter, some countries will become deserts!”
- Det er altså rigtigt, at jorden bliver varmere, men hvorfor? spøger Tom.
“But why is all this happening?”asked Tom.
Chefbrandmanden er forpustet, men forsøger alligevel at svare.
The Chief Fireman was getting out of breath running and talking at the same time, but he tried to explain anyway.
- Som du sikkert ved, Tom, udsender biler, fly og fabrikker og den slags en masse udstødning, røg og gasser.
“Well, Tom, you know that cars and planes and factories and all sorts of things like that give off exhaust fumes and gases?”
- Ja, det ved jeg skam godt, siger Tom.
“Yes, I know about that”said Tom.
- Nogle af disse gasser kalder vi drivhusgasser.
“Well, some of those gases we call greenhouse gases.
De stiger op i atmosfæren, der er en slags gennemsigtig luftboble rundt om jorden.
They go up into the atmosphere, which forms a sort of transparent bubble all around the earth.
Oppe i atmosfæren holder drivhusgasserne på jordens varme – ligesom et drivhus holder på solens varme.
Up there in the atmosphere, the greenhouse gases trap the heat from the sun – just like a greenhouse traps heat and thus helps plants to grow faster.
Nu er vi her! råber Tom. - Lad mig hjælpe dig med slangen!
Here we are!”shouted Tom: “Let me help you with the hose!”
Mens chefbrandmanden ser på, tager Tom fat om slangen og trækker den med ind i grotten.
Tom took the end of the hose and went forward into the cave. A few moments later, his voice rang out, echoing in the darkness:
- SÅ ER DER VAND!!
He called out to his men:
Slangen fyldes med vand fra kilden.
The hose began swelling as it filled with water from the spring.
- Bravo, Tom! råber chefbrandmanden. - Her er vand nok til at slukke branden! Hurra!
“Well done, Tom!”shouted the Chief Fireman.
Tom kommer ud af grotten.
“Theres enough water here to put out the fire! Hurray!”
Han lægger sig ned i græsset ved siden af chefbrandmanden og ser ham lige i øjnene.
He came over and sat down near the Chief Fireman. Looking into his eyes, Tom asked:
- Vil det sige, at det er os mennesker, der er skyld i klimaændringerne? spørger Tom.
“So, human beings are responsible for climate change?”
- Ja, Tom, det er vores skyld, for drivhusgasserne stammer fra vores biler, vores fly, vores fabrikker og endda vores brandbiler!
“Yes, Tom, the greenhouse gases come from our cars, our planes, our factories, even our fire-engines; so we all have to take our share of the responsibility”.
- Hvad du kan gøre, Tom, er at bede din mor og far om ikke at bruge deres bil til at køre dig i skole.
“What you can do, Tom, is ask your Mum or Dad not to use the car so often.
Når bilen kører, producerer den jo drivhusgasser. I kunne gå eller cykle, eller I kunne tage bussen eller toget.
Instead of going to work or school by car every day you could walk, or take public transport, or go by bike”.
- Og så kunne du sørge for at lukke vinduet på dit værelse, når der er tændt for varmen, fortsætter chefbrandmanden.
“Right”said the Chief Fireman. “Then you could make sure you keep your bedroom window shut when the central heating is on.
Varmeanlægget producerer også drivhusgasser, så vi skal spare på varmen!
Because central heating boilers produce greenhouse gases too, and because we need to save energy!”
- Ja, selvfølgelig, svarer Tom.
“Yes, of course”said Tom.
- Du ville blive meget overrasket, Tom, hvis du vidste, hvor megen varme, der går til spilde.
“Youd be surprised”went on the Chief Fireman“how much of the heat in our homes gets wasted.
Det trækker koldt ind ad døre og vinduer.
Draughts come in under the door, and through windows that dont close properly.
Og så må vi skrue op for varmen.
And that means we have to turn the heating up!
Mere varme betyder flere drivhusgasser!
And more heating means more greenhouse gases!”
- Det havde jeg ikke tænkt på, siger Tom. - Det er interessant!
“I never thought of that”said Tom. “Thats really interesting!
Hvad kan jeg ellers gøre?
So, what else can I do?”
- Du kunne sørge for at slukke lyset, når du ikke har brug for det, siger chefbrandmanden, for elektriciteten kommer fra el-værket, der også producerer drivhusgasser.
“Well,”said the Chief Fireman, “make sure you switch off all the lights you dont need because electricity is made in power stations, and they too produce greenhouse gases!
Så husk at slukke lyset på dit værelse, inden du går i skole om morgenen.
So before you leave for school in the morning, check that your bedroom lights are all switched off”.
- Det skal jeg nok, indvilger Tom. - Hvad ellers?
“I will!”said Tom. “And what else?”
- Du kan bede dine forældre om at købe elektricitet, der er produceret af vinden eller solen.
“You could ask your parents to buy electricity thats produced by the wind or by the sun...
Det kaldes vedvarende energi, fordi vinden bliver ved med at blæse, og solen bliver ved med at skinne. Energien slipper ikke op.
Thats what we call renewable energy, because the wind keeps blowing and the sun keeps shining, so the energy doesnt run out.
Og solen og vinden producerer ikke drivhusgasser.
And the wind and sun dont produce greenhouse gases!”
Et højt råb afbryder deres samtale.- SÅ ER VI TILBAGE!
Suddenly, a loud shout interrupted their conversation.“WERE BACK!”
Tom og chefbrandmanden løber over til Max og Lilli.
It was Max the fireman, and he had Lila with him!
De er lykkelige for at se dem igen.
They had come back safe and sound from the burning forest!
I mellemtiden har brandmændene efterhånden fået slukket branden med vandet fra den hemmelige kilde.
Tom and the Chief Fireman were delighted to see them – and also to see that the firemen were managing to put out the fire at last, with all the water from the secret spring.
Max, der er helt sodet i ansigtet, får tårer i øjnene, mens han med hæs stemme forklarer, hvad der er sket:
Max, his face exhausted and blackened with soot, had tears in his eyes. He said, in a hoarse voice:
- Se, hvad Lilli ville have mig til at redde! – I sine arme holder Max fire små ræveunger!
“Look what Lila wanted me to save”– and he showed them what he was carrying in his arms: four little fox cubs!
Lilli lægger hovedet kærligt mod Toms mave.- Det var det, du prøvede at fortælle os! siger Tom til Lilli. Chefbrandmanden klapper Tom på hovedet.
“So thats what you were trying to tell us, Lila!”he said to her, gently.
Han bliver afbrudt af et blitzlys.
A sudden flash of light interrupted his words.
Det er en pressefotograf, og bag ved ham kommer Dankøbings borgmester gående.
It was a photographer, and just behind him came the Mayor of Merlin City.
Borgmesteren trykker chefbrandmandens hånd. BLITZ!
The Mayor stepped up to the Chief Fireman and shook his hand.
- Sikke en varme! udbryder borgmesteren. BLITZ!
“Hot, isnt it!”said the Mayor.
Han bøjer sig ned og løfter Tom op. BLITZ!
He bent down and picked up Tom.
Borgmesteren tørrer sig over panden. BLITZ!
The Mayor wiped his sweaty forehead with a handkerchief.
- Flot klaret! siger borgmesteren. - Takket være jer og jeres store indsats og mod er det lykkedes at slukke skovbranden!
“Well done”said the Mayor. “Thanks to you, to your courage and hard work, the forest fire at Merlin City has been extinguished!
Jeg er dybt taknemmelig og vil gerne have lov til at overrække jer disse medaljer...
I wish to express to you my deepest gratitude and to present you with these medals...”
Lilli, Tom og Max – der bærer de fire ræveunger – kommer hen for at hilse på borgmesteren.
Lila, Tom and Max – carrying the four fox cubs – stepped forward to greet the Mayor.
Tom siger:
Tom said:
- Hr. borgmester, se de kære små ræveunger.
“Mr Mayor, please take a look at these poor little fox cubs.
De var tæt på at dø i dag... bare fordi jorden bliver varmere.
They nearly died today... And its all because of climate change!
De skulle hellere give medaljerne til dem, der prøver på at beskytte vores jord!
I think you should give these medals to people who are trying to save the earth!”
Endnu et billede.
Another photo.
- Men jeg ville gerne... siger borgmesteren forvirret. - Jeg ville bare...
“Really?”said the Mayor, rather taken aback.“But I thought...
Chefbrandmanden tager ordet.
Then the Chief Fireman spoke up.
- Hr. borgmester.
“Mr Mayor, were fireman.
Vi har bare gjort vores pligt.
We were just doing our job.
Vi brandmænd kan godt se, at jorden bliver varmere, og branden i dag var ikke nogen tilfældig skovbrand.
But we see that the earth is warming up.
Den er opstået på grund af menneskene.
Todays forest fire was not a coincidence.
Klimaet ændrer sig.
We humans were probably responsible.
Vi har ikke brug for medaljer, vi har fået vores belønning!
The climate is changing!”
Chefbrandmanden tager de små ræveunger op og holder dem tæt ind til sig.
And so saying, the Chief Fireman took Lilas cubs and gave them a gentle hug.
De ser så yndige ud! BLITZ!
They looked so sweet!
Fotografen tager endnu et billede.
Yet another photo.
- Ved De hvad, hr. borgmester! udbryder Tom. - De kunne give medaljerne til dem, der cykler, dem, der bruger sol- og vindenergi, og dem, der tager bussen i stedet for bilen...
“I tell you what”said Tom: “Why not give medals to everyone who rides their bike every day, and everyone who uses energy from the wind and the sun, and everyone who leaves their car at home and takes the bus instead...
Giv medaljerne til dem, der gør noget for at stoppe produktionen af drivhusgasser.
Give medals to everyone who tries to stop producing greenhouse gases!
Det er dem, der er heltene!
Those people are the real heroes!”
Borgmesteren smiler til Tom.
The Mayor smiled at Tom.
- Det er en fantastisk ide, siger han. - Det vil jeg straks gøre noget ved!
“That is a great idea!”he said. “I will do something about it straight away!”
Branden er slukket.
The fire was out.
Næste morgen er billederne i alle Dankøbings aviser.
In the morning, the photos were in all the Merlin City newspapers.
Der er et billede af borgmesteren sammen med chefbrandmanden.
There was the Mayor with the Chief Fireman.
Der er et af Max, der står smilende ved siden af sin brandbil.
There was Max smiling, standing next to his fire engine.
Men det billede, folk i Dankøbing bedst kan lide, er billedet af Lilli, der ligger sammen med sine fire små diende unger.
There was Tom, looking tired.But everyones favourite picture was of Lila feeding her four little cubs.
De er i sikkerhed.
They were all alive and safe.
Men det var nær gået galt...
But it had been a close thing...

Europa udgør kun 2,6 % af landjorden i verden.
Europe covers just 2.6% of the planet’s land mass.Yet, despite its size, it has a stunning diversity of plants,animals and landscapes, many of which are foundnowhere else in the world.
Alligevelhar det en fantastisk mangfoldighed af planter,dyr oglandskaber.
Differences in climate, topography and geology accountfor much of this biodiversity.
Mange af dem helt enestående i verden.
From the Arctic Circle tothe warm Mediterranean coastline, from the peaks of the Alps to the vast open plains of central Europe, the rangeof natural conditions on our small continent isunparalleled.
En stor del af den biologiske mangfoldighed skyldes klimatiske, topografi ske og geologiske forskelle.Fra polarcirklen til Middelhavets varme kyster og fra Alpernes tinder til de vidtstrakte sletter i Centraleuropa – naturens mangfoldighed er uden sidestykke på vores lille kontinent.
Our long association with the land has been equallyimportant in shaping our countryside. For centuriespeople have been developing different ways of workingthe land, which has given rise to many so called ‘seminatural’ habitats, rich in wildlife (hay meadows, woodedpastures, open heaths) yet entirely dependent uponcontinued human use for their survival.
Også menneskets mangeårige tilstedeværelse har haft storbetydning for landskabets udformning.Igennem århundreder har vi udviklet forskellige metoder til at dyrke og bearbejde jorden og har derved skabt mange såkaldte delvis naturlige levesteder, der har et rigt dyre- og planteliv (høenge, løvenge, åbne heder),og som er afhængige af menneskets fortsatte udnyttelse.
Europe’s rich mixture of nationalities, cultures, languagesand identities is also strongly reflected everywhere in ourlandscape. Few places in the world have such a varied,contrasting and localised patchwork of habitats, wildlifeand cultural landscapes so tightly interwoven in so smallan area – it is this that makes Europe’s nature so unique.
Få steder i verden finder man en så varieret, kontrastfyldt og tæt mosaik af levesteder, plante- og dyreliv og kulturlandskaber på så lille et areal – det er det, der gør Europas natur så enestående.
NATURA 2000
Det er vores naturarv.
Natura2000 24pp p2-3.p65
EUROPAS NATUR ER OGSÅ DIN
Low intensity farming,for instance, is practiced over large areas of Europe,providing a livelihood for millions of people.
Ved at beskytte naturarven kan vi sikre, at den rige mangfoldighed af planter,dyr og levesteder i Europa bevares til glæde for de kommende generationer.Men det er ikke kun naturens egenværdi,der er vigtig – naturen er også vigtig for økonomien og er med til at øge livskvaliteten.
Europe’s nature is under increasing threat. Populationsof species are declining at an alarming rate and manyvaluable natural and semi-natural habitats are rapidlydisappearing.
VÆRDISÆTTERVI NATUREN TILSTRÆKKELIG HØJT?Monets maleri af en valmuemark vurderes til 5–50 mio. EUR.Den ægte vare koster 5 000 EUR/ha.
Today, almost half of Europe’s mammalsand a third of our reptile, fish and bird species areendangered.
Uanset om vi bor i byen eller på landet,tager de fleste af os på et eller andet tidspunkt ud i naturen for at opleve dens skønhed, vandre, bade, fi ske, slappe af,gå på opdagelse eller bare for at nyde den friske luft og lytte til fuglenes sang.Det har stor betydning for vores sundhed og velvære.
This dramatic decline is primarily due to the loss andfragmentation of the habitats upon which the speciesdepend. Many of these habitats are shrinking in the wakeof more intensive land uses, major infrastructures, such asroads, and the steady spread of urban areas.
Vi har også nytte af de vigtige miljømæssige funktioner, som naturen har.Vådområder udgør f.eks.et naturligt forsvar mod oversvømmelse,fordi de som svampe opsugeroverskudsvand.
THE PRESTIGE DISASTERWhen the Prestige tanker sank off the coastof northern Spain in November 2002, itreleased 64,000 tonnes of oil killing some300,000 sea birds (mainly commonguillemots, Atlantic puffins and razorbills).Damage to fishing, tourism and the naturalheritage along 3,000 km of coastlinepolluted by the spill has cost approximately€5 billion.
Rørskove absorberer giftstoffer og er derved med til at rense forurenet vand,og tørvemoser fungerer som naturlige dræn for kuldioxid – hovedårsagen til den globale opvarmning.
Around 30,000 people in thefishery and shellfish sectors have beendirectly affected. Several local fishermen’sorganisations have reported an 80%drop of their normal catch.
Men frem for alt er naturen en vigtig indtægtskilde for utallige europæiske borgere,som udnytter naturressourcerne på en bæredygtig måde.
In only a few decades half of Europe’s valuable wetlandshave been drained for land reclamation and agriculture.Heathlands, steppes and peat bogs have shrunk by asmuch 60–90% and almost three-quarters of the dunes in France, Italy and Spain have disappeared under therelentless pressure of mass tourism.
F.eks. tjener millioner af mennesker mange steder i Europa til livets underhold ved at drive ekstensivt landbrug.
Other threats to nature include pollution, climate change,disturbance, recreational pressure, unsustainableexploitation of natural resources, introduction of invasivenon-native species and land abandonment.
Europas natur er udsat for stadig flere trusler.
In the face of this alarming decline, people all over Europehave expressed increasing concern over the loss of theirnatural heritage and are calling for action to address thisproblem.
Bestandenaf en række arter er i foruroligende tilbagegang,og mangeværdifulde naturlige og delvis naturlige levesteder er stærkt på vej til at forsvinde.Næsten halvdelen af Europas pattedyr og en tredjedel af vores krybdyr-, fi ske- og fuglearter er i dag truet af udryddelse.
Governments of the EU Member States have respondedaccordingly and, in 2001, committed themselves, at the European Summit in Gothenburg, to stop the loss ofbiodiversity in Europe by the year 2010.
Den stærke tilbagegang skyldes primært tabet og opsplitningen af de levesteder, som arterne er afhængige af.Mange af levestederne svinder ind på grund af en mereintensiv udnyttelse af jorden,store infrastrukturprojekter, f.eks. veje, og byernes vækst.
As nature does not recognise national boundaries, suchan ambitious target is best achieved by coordinatingefforts and pooling resources.
PRESTIGE-KATASTROFENDa tankskibet Prestige i november 2002 forliste ud for Spaniens nordkyst,kostede olieudslippet på 64 000 ton olie ca.300 000 søfugle livet (hovedsagelig lomvier,lunder og alke).Skaderne for fi skeriet, turismen og naturarven på den 3 000 km lange kyststrækning,der blev forurenet af olieudslippet,beløb sig til ca. 5 mia. EUR. Ca.
Rivers, such as the Danube, flow through ten countries –if one of them damages part of the river, all may beaffected.
På bare nogle få årtier er halvdelen af Europas værdifuldevådområder blevet drænet for at indvinde jord og give plads til landbrug. Hedeområderne, stepperne og tørvemoserne er svundet op til 60–90 % ind,og næsten tre fjerdedele af klitterne i Frankrig,Italien og Spanien er forsvundet på grund af det bestandige pres fra masseturismen.
European legislation sets the standard for natureconservation across the European Union and enables all25 Member States to work together within the samestrong legislative framework in order to protect our mostvulnerable species and habitat types.
Andre faktorer,der truer naturen, er forurening, klimaændringer, forstyrrelser, fritidssektoren, ikke-bæredygtig udnyttelse af naturressourcer,indførelse af invasive ikke-hjemmehørende arter og afvandring.
NATURA 2000
Det er ikke kun sjældne arter som bjørne, sommerfugle og lokale planter,der er truet.
NB: information on Natura 2000 sites for the tennew Member States is notyet finalised.
