珍妮·古道尔博士 | 为自然投票

This is something very different. This is something very different to what you've been watching so far. But I would like to first of all bring you a message from a very different world, a world that I lived in for many years before I began traveling around the world. And for those of you who want to listen then let me greet you with a sound of a chimpanzee from Africa which would be Hohohoho.... Me Jane and chimpanzee.

这是很不寻常的事情。与诸位目前所看到的截然不同。首先，我想给诸位欣赏一个来自不同的世界的信息，在我开始环游世界之前，我在这个世界生活了很多年。如果你们想听，请允许我用非洲黑猩猩的声音向你们问好【黑猩猩吼叫声】：珍妮和黑猩猩。

So I'm sorry that some of you have got wet and there there's been rain tonight. But I think that everybody can be thankful that we're not in Florida or Georgia with Hurrican which has devastated people's lives, destroyed their homes and killed many people.

今晚还下了雨，很抱歉你们中的一些人被淋湿了。但我认为，每个人都应该庆幸没有在佛罗里达州或佐治亚州遭受飓风袭击，飓风摧毁了人们的生活，摧毁了他们的家园，并夺去了许多人的生命。

Mother Nature is suffering and she's suffering because of us. And weather patterns have been changed and messed up all around the world. There are heat waves when it should be cold. It's cold when it should be warm.

大自然母亲在受苦，她因我们而受苦。世界各地的天气模式都发生了变化，变得一团糟。该寒冷的时候出现了热浪，该温暖的时候却很寒冷。

And this is caused by us. It's caused by burning fossil fuel, it's caused by releasing other so-called greenhouse gases into the environment, gases that plank blanket the planet and trap the heat of the Sun, so that we get climate change. We also get the loss of biodiversity.

这都是我们造成的。这是燃烧化石燃料造成的，是向环境释放所谓的温室气体造成的，这些气体覆盖了整个地球，捕获了太阳的热量，从而导致了气候变化。我们也因此失去了生物多样性。

We are are in the midst of the sixth great extinction. And we humans are not exempt from extinction if we don't get together and try and heal some of the hurt that we've inflicted on mother nature. Then for our children, grandchildren and their children, life will be pretty grim.

我们正在经历第六次生物大灭绝。如果我们不团结起来，努力治愈我们对大自然造成的伤害，我们人类也难逃灭绝的厄运。对于我们的子孙后代来说，他们的生活将是非常严峻的。

And so of course, I believe there's hope. I've lived on this planet 90 years. And yeah I'm okay, I'm 90 and I can still dance around if I want to. But I don't want to dance around tonight. I want to tell you that although nature is messed up by us, we still have a chance to try and change things around. We've got a window of time. I don't know how big it is, I do know it's closing.

当然，我相信希望是存在的。我已经在这个星球上生活了90年。是的，我很好，我已经90 岁了，如果我想跳舞，我依然可以，但今晚我不想。我想告诉各位，虽然大自然被我们搞得一团糟，但我们仍有机会尝试并改变一些事情。我们有一个时间窗口，但我不知道这个窗口有多大，而且它正在关闭。

But there is hope and the reasons for hope for me, first of all, the human intellect. We're beginning to come up with ways, science is coming up with ways that we can live in greater harmony with planet. We as individuals are thinking about our environmental footstep and how we can walk through life, making as little impact as possible.

但希望还是有的，我之所以抱有希望，首先是人类的智慧。我们开始想办法，科学正在想办法让我们与地球更加和谐地相处。作为个人，我们正在思考自己的环保脚步，思考如何在生活中尽可能减少对环境的影响。

But my greatest reason for hope is the resilience of nature. We can destroy a place and give it time nature will come back. And then there are the young people, many of you young people here and many of you are probably depressed when you think about the state of the environment, suicide rates are going up.

但是，我对大自然抱有希望的最大理由是它的韧性。我们可以破坏一个地方，但只要给它时间，它就会恢复过来。还有年轻人，在座的许多年轻人，当你们想到环境状况、自杀率上升时，你们中的许多人可能会感到沮丧。

But nevertheless there is hope and hope is something which... if we lose hope then we're doomed. Because if you lose hope, then you do nothing and if we all do nothing then that's the end, that is our doom.

但希望还是有的，而希望是......如果我们失去了希望，那就注定要失败。因为失去了希望，你就什么都不做了，如果我们都什么都不做，那就完了，那就是我们的末日。

But you know there's something that everybody can do. All around the world this year, 48 countries have had major elections, and so many people... I'm sure many of you here those of you who are listening, many of you here are fed up with politics and politicians, so many people have told me: yes, so you don't want to vote right? Because what's the point of voting.

但我们每个人都可以做一些事情。今年，全世界有48个国家举行了大选，许多人... 我相信在座的很多人都厌倦了政治和政客，很多人告诉我说，所以你不想投票，对吗？因为投票没有什么意义。

But the point is that voting, your vote is really really important. And your vote is important because what we have to do even. If we don't particularly care about any particular candidate, choose a candidate who seems to you to be most prepared, to protect the planet for the future.

但问题是投票，你投的票真的非常非常重要。之所以重要，是因为我们必须做一些事情。如果我们并不特别在意某个候选人，那就选择一个在你看来最有准备的候选人，为保护地球的未来投票。

In other words, vote for nature, vote for nature. Register and vote and it's not only for us. It's not only for us that you must vote. You must vote for all the other beings with whom we share the planet, the chimpanzee. Vote for nature and also the wolf. Thanks you!

换句话说，为自然投票，为自然投票。登记并投票不仅仅是为了我们自己，你们不仅要为自己投票，还必须为所有与我们共同生活在这个星球上的其他生物投票，为黑猩猩投票。为大自然投票，也为狼投票。谢谢！
