We are at a unique stage in our history. Never before have we had such an awareness of what we are doing to the planet, and never before have we had the power to do something about it.
我們正處于歷史上一個獨特的階段。我們從未如此清楚地意識到我們對地球所做的一切，也從未有過能力對此采取行動。
The only way to save a rhinoceros is to save the environment in which it lives, because there's a mutual dependency between it and millions of other species of both animals and plants.
拯救犀牛的唯一方法是拯救它所生活的環(huán)境，因為它與數(shù)百萬其他動植物物種之間存在相互依賴關(guān)系。
We have a responsibility, every one of us. We may think we live a long way from the oceans, but we don't. What we actually do here, has a direct effect on the oceans—and what the oceans do then reflects back on us.
我們每個人都有責(zé)任。我們可能認(rèn)為我們生活在遠(yuǎn)離海洋的地方，但我們沒有。我們在這里所做的實際上對海洋有直接影響——而海洋所做的又會反過來影響我們。
The future of life on Earth depends on our ability to take action. Many individuals are doing what they can, but real success can only come if there is a change in our societies and our economics and in our politics.
地球上生命的未來取決于我們采取行動的能力。許多人正在盡其所能，但只有我們的社會、經(jīng)濟(jì)和政治發(fā)生變化，才能取得真正的成功。
No one will protect what they don't care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced.
沒有人會保護(hù)他們不關(guān)心的事物，也沒有人會關(guān)心他們從未經(jīng)歷過的事物。
The truth is: the natural world is changing. And we are totally dependent on that world. It provides our food, water and air. It is the most precious thing we have and we need to defend it.
事實是：自然界正在變化。而我們完全依賴那個世界。它提供我們的食物、水和空氣。它是我們擁有的最寶貴的東西，我們需要捍衛(wèi)它。
The question is, are we happy to suppose that our grandchildren may never be able to see an elephant except in a picture book?
問題是，我們是否樂于假設(shè)我們的孫子孫女可能永遠(yuǎn)無法在大象的圖片書之外看到大象？
People must feel that the natural world is important and valuable and beautiful and wonderful and an amazement and a pleasure.
人們必須感受到自然界是重要且有價值的、美麗的、奇妙的、令人驚嘆且愉悅的。
An understanding of the natural world and what's in it is a source of not only a great curiosity but great fulfillment.
對自然界的理解及其內(nèi)涵不僅是巨大好奇心的來源，也是巨大成就感的來源。
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
在我看來，自然界是最大的興奮來源；最大的視覺美來源；最大的智力興趣來源。它是生命中許多讓生活有價值的東西的最大來源。
