It turns out Venus is a victim of a runaway greenhouse effect.

原来金星就是一个失控的温室效应的受害者。

But its surface has been cooked and dried by an ocean of carbon dioxide, trapped in the burning death grip of a runaway greenhouse effect.

但是它的表面被二氧化碳干燥了，被巨大的温室效应的炽热的死亡之手给扼住。

Isn't there a chance that, as this broadens out, there could be a different kind of runaway effect?

随着范围扩大，是否有可能出现另一种失控效应？

The Sun warmed, so Venus warmed, and then a cascading series of events lead to it being a ridiculously hostile environment due to the runaway greenhouse effect.

太阳变暖了，金星也变暖了，接着一连串的事件导致金星在失控的温室效应下形成了异常恶劣的环境。

If you want to paint roofs white to reflect more energy from the cityscapes, that's not going to bring a danger of a runaway effect, and there are some other things that are loosely called " geoengineering" like that, which are fine.

如果你想把屋顶漆成白色以反映更多来自城市景观的能量，那不会带来失控效应的危险， 还有其他一些被粗略地称为“地球工程”的东西，这很好。
