Pierre?
Pierre.
我太太,Lisa。
很高兴认识你。
现在就亲了唷?
酷唷。
谢谢
这麽说你们想要去爬山?
对对对
有一点。
你们想在冰河上行走吗?
不不不
只要看就好。
看就好。
但我们可以去上面行走。
好好
那很棒。
嗯嗯嗯

当你年轻的时候
温度…如何?
怎麽样?
我年轻的时候气候是甚麽样子吗?
我年轻的时候气候是甚麽样子吗?
以前的夏天也很美,但绝对没有现在这麽热。
以前我们曾在这裡放牧。
牠们会走在冰河的边缘,
然后上去吃草。
是,是。
那裡吃草很不错。
但现在都没了。
以前这裡没有梯子,
我们只须几步路就可以走到冰川。
你看,从1945到现在,这裡差不多融化了有150米这麽深。
地质学家可能可以给更精确的数字,但我看起来是这样。
这边梯子下面有一段比较长的间隔唷。
Now, there’s an elaborate extension on the bottom here.
今年他们又加装了另一段梯子。
所以今年冰河又融化了差不多7到10米。
要是赶上这麽热的天气,甚至会融化的更厉害。
不可思议。
想到现在是阿尔卑斯山的12月,很让人觉得太不可思议了。

未来50年内,欧洲将有超过一半的滑雪场因为全球暖化而被迫停业。
More than half of ski resort in Europe could shut down in the next 50 years because of global warming.
只不过没有人可以滑雪了,这倒也没甚麽,
重要的是,并没有想像的这麽糟糕嘛,是不是?
So nobody goes skiing, big deal. The thing is it’s not bad, is it? That’s the whole point.
没雪可滑或是冰川融化,并不是真正的重点。
The fact you can’t get skiing anymore or the glaciers are melting is not really the point,
重要的是显示了地球越来越不稳定的一个信♥号♥♥。
the point is that signals that basically the earth is destabilizing.
所有使得生命得以存活的规则现在,和以前变的不一样了。
And all the norms that have allowed life to exist are changing.
现在因为全球暖化,很多事情都不同了。
我感觉得现在只有两个季节
冬天过后毫无徵兆的直接变成夏天
我们该怎麽办?
我不知道。
我不知道。
每一天,冰河都融化的越来越厉害。
列出有关:直到现在的气候变迁、重大事件。

我的意思是,其实另外一个作法就是,
带著全部家当,走人,这是第一选择,
I mean another way to do that is get all you stuff and go, that’s option 1,
应该也是最佳的选择。但我却没走。
probably the best option. I didn’t grow up in that option.
Alvin去接了他84岁的爸爸回家,

当你睁大眼睛注视著我们的母亲大自然,通常她还显得非常慈祥。

And then she stands toe to toe, and dares you, dares you.

我想儘管对于一些特别的事件要归罪于全球暖化,还是需要很谨慎的。
I think ones got to be very careful about attaching a particular event to global warming.
儘管如此,飓风的强度和海水表面温度确实相关,
But nevertheless the intensity of hurricanes is related to surface sea temperature,
所以越来越强的飓风的确和全球暖化有关联。
so increased intensity of hurricane is associated with global warming.
天亮的时候,Alvin家的积水已经即胸,而且还在上升。
By first light, the water in Alvin’s house is chest-deep and still rising.
所以他帮助他爸爸上船然后往没淹水的地方驶去。
So he helped Alvin Sr. into their boat and headed for dry land.
那裡只有一艘船还浮著,发动一艘船也没甚麽大不了,反正就发动了。
There’s just one boat that’s floating, so it’s no big deal to launch the boat, it’s launched.
说真的,甚麽地标都没有。在和树一样高的位置从你家附近驶过,

driving through your neighborhood at tree level.
然后你突然意识到,还有很多人都还在等著救援。

当那个小篮子被送出窗户,真是个很特别的感觉。
that little basket came out of the window, that was a pretty special time.

深吸一口气,你知道的,没有甚麽比那更珍贵了。
take a breath, you know, there’s nothing more precious than that.
Alvin的邻居算是幸运的了,
Alvin’s neighbors were the lucky ones,
卡崔纳飓风是直至今日,美国史上最严重的气候灾害。

一些全球顶尖的科学家,经过多年的辩论,宣佈”的确是人类的错”…
“It is our fault,” after years of debate, some of the world’s top scientists…
“无庸置疑”,是他们用来形容人类行为是…
“Unequivocable,” this the word they used, human activity is…
造成地球气候的改变,不再是一个可以辩论的议题。
Contributing to changes in our earth climate, and that issue is no longer up to debate.
在Andermatt,

他们用一种特殊的保护,垫罩住冰山来减少它夏日的融化。
