Hello, I'm Severn Suzuki speaking for E.C.O.

大家好，我是Severn Suzuki，在這裡

- the Environmental Children's Organization.

We are a group of twelve and thirteen-year-olds

Vanessa Suttie, Morgan Geisler, Michelle Quigg and me.

Vanessa Suttie、Morgan Geisler、Michelle Quigg和我

We raised all the money to come here ourselves

我們募款集資靠自己的力量來到5000英哩外的

to come five thousand miles to tell you adults you must change your ways.

地方，來告訴在座的各位大人們，你們必須有所改變

Coming up here today, I have no hidden agenda.

我們今天來到這裡，並沒有任何隱藏的動機

我們從事環保工作，是為了我們的未來而努力

Losing my future is not like losing an election

I am here to speak for all generations to come.

我在這裡代表所有未來的世代發言

I am here to speak on behalf of the starving children

我在這裡代表那些世界各地飢餓的孩童發言

而你們從未重視過他們的求救聲

I am here to speak for the countless animals

我在這裡代表地球上瀕臨滅絕的動物發言

dying across this planet because they have nowhere left to go.

because I don't know what chemicals are in it.

因為我不知道空氣中夾雜了什麼化學物質

I used to go fishing in Vancouver, my home, with my dad

我以前會在故鄉溫哥華和父親釣魚

until just a few years ago we found the fish full of cancers.

前幾年我們發現那些魚都得了癌症

going extinct every day - vanishing forever.

In my life, I have dreamt of seeing the great herds of wild animals,

我曾經夢想，有生之年，我可以見到ㄧ大群野生動物

jungles and rainforests full of birds and butterflies,

滿是鳥類和蝴蝶的叢林及熱帶雨林

but now I wonder if they will even exist for my children to see.

但是現在，我懷疑我的小孩是否還能看得到那些動植物

Did you have to worry about these little things when you were my age?

當你像我一樣年紀時，你們曾經擔心過這些芝麻蒜皮的小事嗎？

All this is happening before our eyes and yet we act

但是這些事卻真真切切地發生在你們眼前，然而

as if we have all the time we want and all the solutions.

我們的行為就像是我們有足夠的時間及解決方案來處理這些問題

I'm only a child and I don't have all the solutions,

我只是一個孩子，我並沒有什麼解決方案

but I want you to realize, neither do you!

但是我希望你們瞭解，你們也沒有辦法解決

You don't know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer.

你們並不知道如何修補臭氧層的洞

You don't know how to bring salmon back up a dead stream.

You don't know how to bring back an animal now extinct.

你們不知道如何讓瀕臨滅絕的動物重新復活

而且，你們更無法將現在的沙漠

that once grew where there is now desert.

If you don't know how to fix it, please stop breaking it!

如果你們不知道如何解決，請停止你們的破壞行為

Here, you may be delegates of your governments,

在座的各位，你們也許代表你們的政府、

business people, organizers, reporters or politicians

企業家、官方組織、記者或政治家

- but really you are mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers,

-但是，你們也是為人父母、兄弟姊妹、

aunts and uncles - and all of you are someone's child.

阿姨或叔叔伯伯-同時，你們也是別人的孩子

I'm only a child yet I know we are all part of a family,

我只是個孩子，我們都是這個 50 億人口、3000 萬個種族的

five billion strong, in fact, 30 million species strong

and  borders and governments will never change that.

不論幾個國家或正府都不會改變我們是個大家庭一分子的事實

I'm only a child yet I know we are all in this together

我只是個孩子，但是我知道我們的心在一起

and should act as one single world towards one single goal.

我們應該有共同信念，行動一致，朝著共同目標努力

In my anger, I am not blind, and in my fear,

I am not afraid to tell the world how I feel.

我不畏懼將我的感覺告訴這個世界

在我的國家中，我們有很多浪費的行為

we buy and throw away, buy and throw away,

我們買了東西丟掉，又買了又丟

and yet northern countries will not share with the needy.

北方國家並不會和我們共享資源

we are afraid to share, we are afraid to let go some of our wealth.

我們仍是害怕分享，我們害怕讓別人擁有我們的財富

we have watches, bicycles, computers and television sets.

我們有手錶、腳踏車、電腦和電視機

我們所擁有的清單可以列二天二夜

Two days ago here in Brazil, we were shocked

我們對於二天前在比西發生的事感到震驚

when we spent some time with some children living on the streets.

我們和當地的孩子在街上住了幾天

and if I were, I would give all the street children

如果我有錢，我會將食物、衣服、藥品

food, clothes, medicines, shelter and love and affection."

房子、愛和關懷分給街上的孩子們。」

If a child on the street who has nothing, is willing to share,

如果一個什麼都沒有的小孩都願意分享

why are we who have everything still so greedy?

那什麼都有的我們為什麼仍然如此貪婪呢？

I can't stop thinking that these are children my own age,

我一直在想，這些孩子都像我一樣大

that it makes a tremendous difference where you are born,

你的出生地會使你的一生全然不同

that I could be one of those children living in the Favellas of Rio;

我可能是個里約貧民區裡的小孩

我可能會是索馬利亞飢餓的孩子

a victim of war in the Middle East or a beggar in India.

可能是中東戰爭下的受害者，或是印度的乞丐

was spent on finding environmetal answers,

可以成為充滿尋找環保意識答案的記憶

what a wonderful place this earth would be!

你們大人教我們要謹慎自已的行為

to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures,

要保持整潔、不要傷害其他生物

Then why do you go out and do the things you tell us not to do?

那為什麼你們現在的行為全是當初要我們不要做的？

Do not forget why you're attending these conferences,

不要忘了你們參加這個演講的初衷

You are deciding what kind of world we will grow up in.

你們正在決定我們會在怎樣的世界中長大

Parents should be able to comfort their children by saying,

it's not the end of the world. And we're doing the best we can."

現在不是世界末日，我們要盡所能做到該做的事。」

But I don't think you can say that to us anymore.

但我不認為你們有資格跟你們的孩子這樣說

我們這群孩子仍是你們最重視的嗎？

「你的價值是以你做的事，而不是以你說的話所決定的。」

可是我卻為了你們大人的所作所為在夜晚哭泣

你們在我們成長的過程中一直說愛我們

please make your actions reflect your words.

請你們為你們所說的話付諸行動，用行動來證明
