据新华社消息，当地时间23日晚，一架小型飞机在巴西中西部南马托格罗索州阿基道阿纳市坠毁，机上四人全部遇难。飞机坠毁地点位于潘塔纳尔湿地地区。据当地消防部门消息，遇难者身份已确认，包括一名飞行员、两名巴西纪录片制片人和俞孔坚，事故原因目前还在调查中。

Brazilian authorities confirmed that Yu and three other people, the pilot and two local filmmakers, were killed when the aircraft they were travelling in crashed in a rural area near the town of Aquidauana, in the Pantanal wetlands, the report said.

当地媒体报道说，俞孔坚一行当时正在潘塔纳尔湿地拍摄一部关于“海绵城市”的纪录片。

卢拉24日在社交媒体发文悼念事故遇难者，表示在气候变化日益严峻的时代，俞孔坚提出的“海绵城市”理念已成为全球典范，这种理念兼顾生活质量与环境保护，正是人类未来所追求和需要的。

巴西副总统阿尔克明也在社交媒体上对遇难者表达深切哀悼，并说俞孔坚因提出“海绵城市”理念而闻名，为可持续城市化、保护生物多样性等作出卓越贡献，他的精神遗产将继续激励所有致力于环保事业的人们。

The vice-president of Brazil also posted on X that, "I received with sadness the news of the crash of an airplane in the Pantanal, which claimed the lives of Chinese architect and urbanist Kongjian Yu, filmmakers Luiz Fernando Feres da Cunha Ferraz and Rubens Crispim Jr. Professor Yu became renowned for creating the concept of sponge cities, with notable contributions to sustainable urbanism, the preservation of biodiversity, and the protection of the planet."

His legacy will continue to inspire all those dedicated to the ecological cause. My deepest condolences to Yu's family and the Chinese people, as well as to the friends and relatives of the filmmakers and pilot Marcelo Pereira de Barros, the vice-president said.

据介绍，俞孔坚（1963-2025年），出生于浙江金华，毕业于美国哈佛大学，美国艺术与科学院外籍院士，中国艺术研究院艺术设计研究中心特约研究员，北京大学景观设计学研究院院长、教授、博士生导师。俞孔坚主要从事业务范围包括城市设计，建筑设计，城市与区域规划，风景旅游地规划。

According to Peking University, Yu was born on May 12, 1963, in Jinhua, Zhejiang province. He is the founding dean of the College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at Peking University and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is renowned for proposing the "sponge city" concept, which has been applied in thousands of cases both domestically and internationally.

俞孔坚因提出可持续城市规划的创新方案而享誉全球。他提出的“海绵城市”理念通过绿色基础设施（如湖泊、公园）和透水铺装，减少对传统排水系统的依赖，以自然方式应对洪涝。这一概念旨在让景观建筑能够吸收洪水，并逐步将水释放至河流与海洋。

据北京大学新闻网，2025年9月18日，《福布斯》公布了“2025全球可持续发展领航者”榜单，表彰在气候行动和绿色转型中具有全球影响力的50位人物。北京大学建筑与景观设计学院俞孔坚教授入选，成为榜单上唯一的中国学者代表。

Professor Yu was selected for Forbes' "2025 Sustainability Leaders" list, which recognizes 50 individuals with global influence in climate action and green transformation, becoming the only Chinese scholar on the list, according to the news website of Peking University on Sept 18.
