It is well known that the degradation of ecosystems can have serious impacts on human health. There is currently a knowledge gap on what impact restoring ecosystems has on human health. In restoring ecosystems there is a drive to restore the functionality of ecosystems rather than restoring ecosystems to 'pristine' condition. Even so, the complete restoration of all ecosystem functions is not necessarily possible. Given the uncertain trajectory of the ecosystem during the ecosystem restoration process the impact of the restoration on human health is also uncertain. Even with this uncertainty, the restoration of ecosystems for human health is still a necessity.
众所周知,生态系统的退化会对人类健康产生严重影响。目前,关于恢复生态系统对人类健康有何影响存在知识空白。在恢复生态系统的过程中,人们致力于恢复生态系统的功能,而非将生态系统恢复到“原始”状态。即便如此,完全恢复所有生态系统功能不一定可行。鉴于生态系统恢复过程中其轨迹不确定,恢复工作对人类健康的影响也不确定。即便存在这种不确定性,为了人类健康恢复生态系统仍是必要的。
