The developing countries have the sovereign right to use their own natural resources in keeping with their developmental and e

14、nvironmental objectives and priorities. Furthermore environmental considerations should not be used as an excuse for interference in the internal affairs of the developing countries, nor should these be used to introduce any forms of conditionality in aid or development financing, or to impose trade

15、 barriers affecting the export and development efforts of the developing countries.在环境保护领域的国际合作应该建立在主权国家之间的平等原则的基础上。 发展中国家有主权去利用自己国家的资源来维持发展和环境目标及其优先权。 不应该以保护环境为理由干涉发展中国家的内政， 不应借此在援助或发展资金上提出任何形式的附加条件 ， 也不应设置贸易壁垒影响发展中国家出口和发展的努力。2. Impurities in water were classified as suspended, colloidal, or dissol

16、ved. Suspended particles are large enough to settle out or to be filtered. Colloidal and dissolved impurities are more difficult to remove. One possibility is somehow to make these small particles join together to become larger ones, which can then be treated as suspended matter. Another possibility
