Summary:雷·安德森(Ray Anderson)是著名的地毯生產(chǎn)產(chǎn)家Interface(界面地毯)的創(chuàng)始人兼CEO。在這個深情的演講里,安德森講述了自己從一個掠奪者到環(huán)保公益人士的轉(zhuǎn)變。對于政府、企業(yè)和NGO,可以讓我們直觀的看到商業(yè)領(lǐng)袖自身在環(huán)境氣候問題上的變化。
全文聽寫
"Without a name, an unseen face, and knowing not your time or place,
Tomorrow's child, though yet unborn, I met you first last Tuesday morn.
A wise friend introduced us two. And through his sobering point of view
I saw a day that you would see, a day for you but not for me.
Knowing you has changed my thinking. For I never had an inkling
that perhaps the things I do might someday, somehow threaten you.
Tomorrow's child, my daughter, son,
I'm afraid I've just begun to think of you and of your good,
though always having known I should.
Begin, I will.
The way the cost of what I squander, what is lost,
if ever I forget that you will someday come and live here too."
Well, every day of my life since, "Tomorrow's Child" has spoken to me with one simple but profound message, which I presume to share with you. We are, each and every one, a part of the web of life. The continuum of humanity, sure, but in a larger sense, the web of life itself. And we have a choice to make during our brief, brief visit to this beautiful blue and green living planet: to hurt it or to help it. For you, it's your call.
“沒有名字、沒有面孔、不知哪里出生、不知何日降臨
明日的孩子,雖然尚未降生 上個周二的早晨,我遇到了你
智者為我們引薦了對方 透過他那沉重的觀點
我看到了你也能看到的一天,那屬于你,不屬于我
因為你改變了我的思考 我從沒有想到
我所做的,也許有一天, 會傷害你。
明日的孩子,我的女兒,我的兒子
我這才開始想到你,以及你該享有的好生活
雖然我知道,我更早就該開始想
我會開始
我總是在想,我所浪費的、我所丟失的
我卻忘記了 有一天,你也會降生,也會生活在這里?!?
那天開始,我的每一天內(nèi)心都會燃起“明日的孩子”的記憶。帶給我一個簡單而又深刻的信息。我希望可以跟大家分享:我們每一個人都是生命之網(wǎng)的一部分,都是人類的一部分,甚而言之,也都是生命之網(wǎng)的一部分。來到這個生機勃勃的綠色的星球上, 我們的旅程很短, 我們必須作出選擇。 是毀壞它,還是維護它? 對于大家,這就是帶給你們的召喚了。
