The Unnatural World is the title of a new book by former Scientific American environment editor David Biello. The subtitle: The Race to Remake Civilization in Earth’s Newest Age. And that age has been dubbed the Anthropocene—in which humanity (anthro) has become, as the book puts it, a world-changing force of nature.
《非自然的世界》是一本新書的名字，這本書的作者科學美國人前編輯大衛•比埃羅。副標題：重塑地球新時代的文明競賽。這個時代被稱為人類紀——就如書中所描述的，人類已經成為改變世界的自然力量。
Biello talked about The Unnatural World recently at the BookCourt bookstore in Brooklyn. He was asked who he met in his research who stood out as someone trying to take steps to address the issues of this age.
近期，比埃羅在布魯克林的BookCourt書店裡談論了這本書。在採訪中，他被問道，在研究中，會見了哪些試圖解決這個時代問題的傑出人物。
“His name is Fan Changwei, and he is an environmental bureaucrat in a small coastal town (Rizhao) in China. And he has been tasked by his provincial government and his local government with trying to turn a city carbon neutral. So this means that would emit no more CO2 than they also kind of took in and destroyed, which is a beautiful sounding circular economy kind of concept—turns out to be incredibly difficult in practice, as Fan is finding out. And that struggle is the one that we’re all facing. And certainly it’s a struggle that, it’s more important that it happen in China than anywhere else. And maybe India right after it…
他的名字叫範長偉，是中國沿海城市日照的一名環保官員。他的任務是負責省政府和地方政府的碳平衡。碳平衡也就意味著釋放的二氧化碳的量要少於吸收處理的二氧化碳量，這是一個美好的迴圈經濟的概念——但是範長偉發現，把這一概念轉化為實際非常的困難。這是我們都在面臨的難題。這是一個難題，並且這個問題在中國顯得愈發重要。也許，印度……
“You know, we have cleaner air, cleaner water, and that’ because we decided that we didn’t want killer smogs, and the Chinese people are deciding that right now, and perhaps the Indians will decide not to have killer smogs before they have them.”
我們有更清潔的空氣、更乾淨的水，這是因為我們不希望有毒霧的存在，現在，中國人們也決定這麼做。可能印度人在看見毒霧之前就決定這麼做了。
More from David Biello about his book The Unnatural World in an upcoming episode of the Science Talk podcast.
