By Sprawling.

Listen to me, please. You’re like me, a homo sapiens. A wise human.

Life, a miracle in the universe, appeared around four billion years ago, and we humans only 200,000 years ago. Yet we have succeeded in disrupting the balance that is so essential to life on Earth.

Listen carefully to this extraordinary story, which is yours, and decide what you want to do with it.

These are traces of our origins. At the beginning, our planet was no more than a chaos of fire, formed in the wake of its star, the sun. A cloud of agglutinated dust particles, similar to so many similar clusters in the universe. Yet this was where the miracle of life occurred.

Today, life-our life-is just a link in a chain of innumerable living beings that have succeeded one another on Earth over nearly four billion years. And even today, new volcanoes continue to sculpt our landscapes. They offer a glimpse of what our Earth was like at its birth---molten rock surging from the depths, solidifying, cracking, blistering or spreading in a thin crust, before fabling dormant for a time.

These wreaths of smoke curling from the bowels of the Earth bear witness to the Earth’s original atmosphere. An atmosphere devoid of oxyge n. A dense atmosphere, thick with water vapor, full of carbon dioxide. A furnace.

But the Earth had an exceptional future, offered to it by water. At the right distance from the sun---not too far, not too near, the Earth was able to conserve water

in liquid form. Water vapor condensed and fell in torrential downpours on Earth, and rivers appeared.

The rivers shaped the surface of the Earth, cutting their channels, furrowing out valleys. They ran toward the lowest places on the globe to form the oceans. They tore minerals from the rocks, and gradually the freshwater of the oceans became heavy with salt.

Water is a vital liquid. It irrigated these sterile expanses. The paths it traced are like the veins of a body, the branches of a tree, the vessels of the sap that it brought to the Earth.

Nearly four billion years later, somewhere on Earth can still be found these works of art, left by the volcanoes’ ash, mixed with water from Iceland’s glaciers. There they are- matter and water, water and matter-soft and hard combined, the crucial alliance shared by every life-form on our planet.

Minerals and metals are even older than the Earth. They are stardust. They provide the Earth’s colors. Red from iron, black from carbon, blue from copper, yellow from sulfur.

Where do we come from?

Where did life first spark into being?

A miracle of time, primitive life-forms still exist in the globe’s hot springs. They give them their colors. They’re called archaeobacteria. They all feed off the Earth’s heat all except the cyanobacter ia, or blue-green algae. They alone have the capacity to turn the sun to capture its energy. They are a vital ancestor of all

yesterday’s and today’s plant species. These tiny bacteria and their billions of descendants changed the destiny of our planet. They transformed its atmosphere.

What happened to the carbon that poisoned the atmosphere?

It’s still here, imprisoned in the Earth’s crust. We can read this chapter of the Earth’s history nowhere better than on the walls of Colorado’s Grand Canyon. They rev eal nearby two billion years of the Earth’s history. Once upon a time, the Grand Canyon was a sea inhabited by microorganisms. They grew their shells by tapping into carbon from the atmosphere dissolved in the ocean. When they died, the shells sank and accumulated on the sealed. These strata are the product of those billions and billions of shells.

Thanks to them, the carbon drained from the atmosphere, and other life-forms could develop.

It is life that altered the atmosphere. Plant life fed off the sun’s energy, which enabled it to break apart the water molecule and take the oxygen. And oxygen filled the air.

The Earth’s water cycle is a process of constant renewal. Waterfalls, water, vapor, clouds, rain, springs, rivers, seas, oceans, glaciers. The cycle is never broken. There’s always the same quantity of water on Earth. All the successive species on Earth have drunk the same water. The astonishing matter that is water. One of the most unstable of all. It takes a liquid form as running water, gaseous as vapor or solid as ice.

In Siberia, the frozen surfaces of the lakes in winter contain the traces of the forces that water deploys when it freezes. Lighter than water, the ice floats, rather than

sinking to the bottom. It forms a protective mantle against the cold, under which life can go on.

The engine of life is linkage. Everything is linked. Nothing is self-sufficient. Water and air are inseparable, united in life and for our life on Earth. Thus, clouds form over the oceans and bring rain to the landmasses, whose rivers carry water back to the oceans.

Sharing is everything.

The green expanse peeking through the clouds is the source of oxygen in the air. Seventy percent of this gas, without which our lungs cannot function, comes from the algae that tint the surface of the oceans.

Our Earth relies on a balance in which every being has a role to play and exists only through the existence of another being. A subtle, fragile harmony that is easily shattered. Thus, corals are born from the marriage of algae and shells. The Great Barrier Reef, off the coast of Australia, stretches over 350,000 square kilometers and is home to 1,500 species of fish, 4000 species of mollusks and 400 species of coral. The equilibrium of every ocean depends on these corals.

The Earth counts time in billions of years. It took more than four billion years for it to make trees. In the chain of species, trees are a pinnacle, a perfect living sculpture. Trees defy gravity. They are the only natural element in perpetual movement toward the sky. They grow unhurriedly the sun that nourishes their foliage. They have inherited from those minuscule cyanobacteria the power to capture light’s energy. They store it and feed off it, turning it into wood and leaves, which then decompose

into a mixture of water, mineral, vegetable and living matter.

And so, gradually, the soils that are indispensable to life are formed. Soils are the factory of biodiversity. They are a word of incessant activity where microorganisms feed, dig, aerate and transform. They make the humus, the fertile layer to which all life on land is linked.

What do we know about life on Earth? How many species are we aware of? A10th of them? A hundredth perhaps? What do we know about the bonds that link them?

The Earth is a miracle. Life remains a mystery.

Families of animals form, united by customs and rituals that survive today. Some adapt to the nature of their pasture, and their pasture adapts to them. And both gain. The animal sates its hunger, and the tree can blossom again.

In the great adventure of life on Earth, every species has a role to play, every species has its place. None is futile or harmful. They all balance out.

And that’s where you, Homo sapiens-―wise human‖-enter the story. You benefit from a fabulous four-billion-year-old legacy bequeathed by the Earth. You’re only 200,000 years old, but you have changed the face of the world. Despite your vulnerability, you have taken possession of every habitat and conquered swaths of territory like no other species before you. After 180,000 nomadic years, and thanks to a more clement climate, humans settled down. They no longer depended on hunting for survival. They chose to live in wet environments that abounded in fish, game and wild plants. There, where land, water and life combine.

Human genius inspired them to build canoes, an invention that opened up new horizons and turned humans into navigators.

Even today, the majority of humankind lives on the continents’ coastlines or the banks of rivers and lakes.

The first towns grew up less than 600 years ago. It was a considerable leap in human history. Why towns? Because they allowed humans to defend themselves more easily. They became social beings, meeting and sharing knowledge and crafts, blending their similarities and differences. In a word, they became civilized.

But the only energy at their disposal was provided by nature and the strength of their bodies. It was the story of humankind for thousands of years. It still is for one person in four—over one and a half billion human beings—more than the combined population of all the wealthy nations.

Taking from the Earth only the strictly necessary. For a long time, the relationship between humans and the planet was evenly balanced. For a long time, the economy seemed like a natural and equitable alliance. But life expectancy is short, and hard labor takes its toll. The uncertainties of nature weigh on daily life. Education is a rare privilege. Children are a family’s only asset, as long as every extra pair of hands is a necessary contribution to its subsistence. The Earth feeds people, clothes them and provides for their daily needs. Everything comes from the Earth.

Towns change humanity’s nature, as well as its destiny. The farmer becomes a craftsman, trader or peddler. What the Earth gives the farmer, the city dweller buys, sells or barters. Goods change hands, along with ideas.

Humanity’s genius is to have always had a sense of its weakness. Humans tried to extend the frontiers of their territory, but they knew their limits. The physical energy and strength with which nature had not endowed them was found in the animals they domesticated to serve them.

But how can you conquer the world on an empty stomach? The invention of agriculture transformed the future of the wild animals scavenging for food that were humankind. Agriculture turned their history on end. Agriculture was their first great revolution. Developed barely 8,000 to 10,000 years age, it changed their relationship to nature. It brought an end to the uncertainty of hunting and gathering. It resulted in the first surpluses and gave birth to cities and civilizations. For their agriculture, humans harnessed the energy of animal species and plant life from which they at last extracted the profits. The memory of thousands of years scrabbling for food faded. They learned to adapt the grains that are the yeast of life to different soils and climates. They learned to increase the yield and multiply the number of varieties.

Like every species on Earth, the principal daily concern of all humans is to feed themselves and their family. When the soil is less generous and water becomes scarce, humans deploy prodigious efforts to mark a few arid acres with the imprint of their labor. Human shaped the land with the patience and devotion that the Earth demands, in an almost sacrificial ritual performed over and over.

Agriculture is still the world’s most widespread occupation. Half of humankind tills the soil, over three-quarters of them by hand. Agriculture is like a tradition handed down from generation to generation in sweat, graft and toil, because for humanity it is

a prerequisite of survival.

But after relying on muscle power for so long, humankind found a way to tap into the energy buried deep in the Earth.

These flames are also from plants. A pocket of sunlight. Pure energy—the energy of the sun captured over millions of years by millions of plants more than a hundred million years ago. It’s coal. It’s gas. And above all, it’s oil. And this pocket of sunlight freed humans from their toil on the land. With oil began the era of humans who break free of the shackles of time. With oil, some of us acquired unprecedented comforts. And in 50 years, in a single lifetime, the Earth has been more radically changed than by all previous generations of humanity.

Faster and faster. In the last 60 years, the Earth’s population has almost tripled, and over two billon people have moved to the cities. Faster and faster. Shenzhen, in China, with its hundreds of skyscrapers and millions of inhabitants, was just a small fishing village barely 40 years ago. Faster and faster. In Shanghai, 3,000 towers and skyscrapers have been built in 20 years. Hundreds more are under construction.

Today, over half of the world’s seven billion inhabitants live in citie s. New York. The world’s first megalopolis is the symbol of the exploitation of the energy the Earth supplies to human genius. The manpower of millions of immigrants, the energy of coal, the unbridled power of oil. Electricity resulted in the invention of elevators, which in turn permitted the invention of skyscrapers. New York ranks as the 16th –largest economy in the world.

American was the first to discover, exploit and harness the phenomenal

revolutionary power of black gold. With its help, a country of farmers became a country of agricultural industrialists. Machines replaced men. A liter of oil generates as much energy as 100 pairs of hands in 24 hours, but worldwide only three percent of farmers have use of a tractor. Nonetheless, their output dominates the planet.

In the United States, only three million farmers are left. They produce enough grain to feed two billion people. But most of that grain is not used to feed people. Here, and in all other industrialized nations, it’s transformed into livest ock feed or biofuels.

The pocket of sunshine’s energy chased away the specter of drought that stalked farmland. No spring escapes the demands of agriculture, which accounts for 70% of humanity’s water consumption.

In nature, everything is linked. The expansion of cultivated land and single-crop farming encouraged the development of parasites. Pesticides, another gift of the petrochemical revolution, exterminated them. Bad harvests and famine became a distant memory. The biggest headache now was what to do with the surpluses engendered by modern agriculture.

But toxic pesticides seeped into the air, soil, plants, animals, rivers and oceans. They penetrated the heart of cells similar to the mother cell that is shared by all forms of life. Are they harmful to the humans that they released from hunger? These farmers, in their yellow protective suits, probably have a good idea.

The new agriculture abolished the dependence on soils and seasons. Fertilizers produced unprecedented results on plots of land thus far ignored. Crops adapted to soils and climates gave way to the most productive varieties and the easiest to

transport. And so, in the last century, three-quarters of the varieties developed by farmers over thousands of years have been wiped out. As far as the eye can see, fertilizer below, plastic on top.

The greenhouses of Almeria in Spain are Europe’s vegetable garden. A city of uniformly sized vegetables waits every day for the hundreds of trucks that will take them to the continent’s supermarkets.

The more a country develops, the more meat its inhabitants consume. How can growing worldwide demand be satisfied without recourse to concentration camp-style cattle farms? Faster and faster. Like the life cycle of livestock which may never see a meadow, manufacturing meat faster than the animal has become a daily routine. In these vast food lots, trampled by millions of cattle, not a blade of grass grows. A fleet of trucks from every corner of the country brings in tons of grain, soy meal and protein-rich granules that will become tons of meat. The result is that it takes 100 liters of water to produce one kilogram of potatoes, 4,000 for one kilo of rice and 13,000 for one kilo of beef. Not to mention the oil guzzled in the production process and transport.

Our agriculture has become oil-powered. It feeds twice as many humans on Earth but has replaced diversity with standardization. It has offered many of us comforts we could only dream of, but it makes our way of life totally dependent on oil.

This is the n ew measure of time. Our world’s clock now beats to the rhythm of these indefatigable machines tapping into the pocket of sunlight. Their regularity reassures us. The tiniest hiccup throws us into disarray. The whole planet is attentive

to these metronomes of our hopes and illusions. The same hopes, and illusions that proliferate along with our needs, increasingly insatiable desires and profligacy. We know that the end of cheap oil is imminent, but we refuse to believe it.

For many of us, the American dream is embodied by a legendary name: Los Angeles. In this city that stretches over 100 kilometers, the number of cars is almost equal to the number of inhabitants.

Here, energy puts on a fantastic show every night. The day seems to be no more than the pale reflection of nights that turn the city into a starry sky. Faster and faster. Distances are no longer counted in miles but in minutes. The automobile shapes new suburbs where every home is a castle, a safe distance from the asphyxiated city centers, and where neat rows of houses huddle round dead-end streets.

The model of a lucky few countries has become a universal dream, preached by televisions all over the world. Even here in Beijing, it is cloned, copied and reproduced in these formatted houses that have wiped pagodas off the map.

The automobile has become the symbol of comfort and progress. If this model were followed by every society, the planet wouldn’t have 900 million vehicles, as it does today, but five billion.

Faster and faster. The more the world develops, the greater its thirst for energy. Everywhere, machines dig, bore and rip from the Earth, the pieces of stars buried in its depths since its creation: minerals.

In the next 20 years, more ore will be extracted from the Earth than in the whole o f humanity’s history. As a privilege of power, 80% of this mineral wealth is

consumed by 20% of the world’s population. Before the end of this century, excessive mining will have exhausted nearly all the planet’s reserves.

Faster and faster. Shipyards churn out oil tankers, container ships and gas tankers to cater for the demands of globalized industrial production. Most consumer goods travel thousands of kilometers from the country of production to the country of consumption. Since 1950, the volume of international trade has increased 20 times over. Ninety percent of trade goes by sea. 500 million containers are transported every year, headed for the world’s major hubs of consumption, such as Dubai.

Dubai is one of the biggest construction sites in the world—a country where the impossible becomes possible. Building artificial islands in the sea, for example. Dubai has few natural resources, but with the money from oil, it can bring millions of tons of material and people from all over the world. It can build forests of skyscrapers, each one taller than the last, or even a ski slope in the middle of the desert. Dubai has no farmland, but it can import food. Dubai has no water, but it can afford to expend immense amounts of energy to desalinate seawater and build the highest skyscrapers in the world. Dubai has endless sun but no solar panels. It is the city of more is more, where the wildest dreams become reality. Dubai is a sort of culmination of the Western model, with its 800-meter high totem to total modernity that never fails to amaze the world. Excessive? Perhaps.

Dubai appears to have made its choice. It is like the new beacon for all the world’s money. Nothing seems further removed from nature than Dubai, although nothing depends on nature more than Dubai. The city merely follows the model of

wealthy nations. We haven’t understood that we’re depleting what nature provides.

What do we know of the marine world, of which we see only the surface, and which covers three-quarters of the planet? The ocean depths remain a secret. They contain thousands of species whose existence remains a mystery to us.

Since 1950, fishing catches have increased fivefold, from18 to 100 million metric tons a year. Thousands of factory ships are emptying the oceans. Three-quarters of fishing grounds are exhausted, depleted or in danger of being so. Most large fish have been fished out of existence, since they have no time to reproduce. We are destroying the cycle of a life that was given to us.

On the coastlines, signs of the exhaustion of stocks abound. First sign: Colonies of sea mammals are getting smaller. Made vulnerable by urbanization of the coasts and pollution, they now face a new threat: famine. In their unequal battle against industrial fishing fleets, they can’t find en ough fish to feed their young. Second sign:Seabirds must fly ever greater distances to find food. At the current rate, all fish stocks are threatened with exhaustion.

In Dakar, traditional net fishing boomed in the years of plenty, but today, fish stocks are dwindling. Fish is the staple diet of one in five humans.

Can we envision the inconceivable? Abandoned boats, seas devoid of fish?

We have forgotten that resources are scarce. 500 million humans live in the world’s desert lands, more than the combined population of Europe. They know the value of water. They know how to use it sparingly. Here, they depend on wells replenished by fossil water, which accumulated underground in the days when it

rained on these deserts, 25,000 years ago.

Fossil water also enables crops to be grown in the desert to provide food for local populations. The fields’ circular shape derives from the pipes that irrigate them around a central pivot. But there is a heavy price to pay. Fossil water is a nonrenewable resource. In Saudi Arabia, the dream of industrial farming in the desert has faded. As if on a parchment map, the lights spots on this patchwork show abandoned plots. The irrigation equipment is still there. The energy to pump water also. But the fossil water reserves are severely depleted.

Israel turned the desert into arable land. Even though these hothouses are now irrigated drop by drop, water consumption continues to increase along with exports. The once mighty river Jordan is now just a trickle. Its water has flown to supermarkets all over the world in crates of fruit and vegetables.

The Jordan’s fate is not unique. Across the planet, one major river in10 no longer flows into the sea for several months of the year. The Dead Sea derives its name from its incredibly high s alinity that makes all life impossible. Deprived of the Jordan’s water, its level goes down by over one meter per year. Its salinity is increasing. Evaporation, due to the heat, produces these fine islands of salt evaporates—beautiful but sterile.

In Rajasthan, India, Udaipur is a miracle of water. The city was made possible by a system of dams and channels that created an artificial lake. For its architects, was water so precious that they dedicated a palace to it? India risks being the country that suffers most from the lack of water in the coming century. Massive irrigation has fed

the growing population, and in the last 50 years, 21 million wells have been dug. The victory over famine has a downside, however. In many parts of the country, the drill has to sink ever deeper to hit water. In western India, 30% of wells have been abandoned. The underground aquifers are drying out.

Vast reservoirs will catch the monsoon rains to replenish the aquifers. In dry season, women from local village dig them with their bare hands.

Thousands of kilometers away, 800 to 1,000 liters of water are consumed per person per day. Las Vegas was built out of the desert. Millions of people live there. Thousands more arrive every month. The inhabitants of Las Vegas are among the biggest consumers of water in the world. Palm Spring is another desert city with tropical vegetation and lush golf courses.

How long can this mirage continue to prosper? The Earth cannot keep up. The Colorado River, which brings water to these cities, is one of those rivers that no longer reaches the sea. Even more alarmingly, its flow is diminishing at source. Water levels in the catchment lakes along its course…are plummeting. Lake Powell took 17 years to reach high-water mark. Its level is now half of that. Water shortages could affect nearly two billion people…before 2050.

Yet water is still abundant in unspoiled regions of the planet. The wetlands.

These wetlands are crucial to all life on Earth. They represent six percent of the Planet. Marshes are sponges that regulate the flow of water. They absorb it in the wet season and release it in the dry season. The water runs off the mountain peaks, carrying with it the seeds of the regions it flows through. This process gives birth to

unique landscapes, where the diversity of species is unequaled in its richness. Under the calm water lies a veritable factory where this ultimately linked richness and diversity, patiently filters the water and digests all the pollution. Marshes are indispensable environments for the regeneration and purification of water.

These wetlands were always seen as unhealthy expanses, unfit for human habitation. In our race to conquer more land, we have reclaimed them as pasture for our livestock, or as land for agriculture or building. In the last century, half of the world’s marshes were drained. We know neither their richness nor their role.

All living matter is linked. Water, air, soil, trees. The world’s magic is right in front of our eyes.

Trees breathe groundwater into the atmosphere as light mist. They form a canopy that alleviates the impact of heavy rains and protects the soil from erosion. The forests provide the humidity that is necessary for life. They are the mother and father of rain. The forests store carbon. They contain more than all the Earth’s atmosphere. They are the cornerstone of the climatic balance on which we all depend.

Trees provide a habitat for three-quarters of the planet’s biodiversity—that is to say, of all life on Earth. Every year, we discover new species we had no idea existed—insects, birds, mammals. These forests provide the remedies that cure us. The substances secreted by these plants can be recognized by our bodies. Our cells talk the same language. We are of the same family.

Mangroves are forests that step out onto the sea. Like coral reefs, they are a nursery for the oceans. Their roots entwine and form a shelter for the fish and

mollusks that come to breed. Mangroves protect the coasts from hurricanes, tidal waves and erosion by the sea. Whole peoples depend on them. Yet, they were reduced by half during the 20th century. One of the reasons for the ongoing disaster is these shrimp farms installed on the mangroves’ rich waters. Ventilators aerate pools full of antibiotics to prevent the asphyxiation of the shrimps, not that of the mangroves.

Since the 1960s, deforestation has constantly gathered pace. Every year, 13 million hectares of tropical forest an area the size of Illinois—disappear in smoke and as lu mber. The world’s largest rain forest, the Amazon, has already been reduced by 20%. The forest gives way to cattle ranches or soybean farms. Ninety-five percent of these soybeans are used to feed livestock and poultry in Europe and Asia. And so, a forest is turned into meat.

When they burn, forests and their soils release huge quantities of carbon, accounting for 20% of the greenhouse gases emitted across the globe. Deforestation is one of the principal causes of global warming. Thousands of species disappear forever. With them, one of the links in a long chain of evolution snaps. The intelligence of the living matter from which they came is lost forever.

Barely 20 years ago, Borneo, the fourth-largest island in the world, was covered by a vast primary forest. At the current rate of deforestation, it will have totally disappeared within 10 years. Living matter bonds water, air, earth and the sun. In Borneo, this bond has been broken in what was one of the Earth’s greatest reservoirs of biodiversity.

This catastrophe was provoked by the decision to produce palm oil, the most

consumed oil in the world, on Borneo. Palm oil not only caters to our growing demand for food, but also cosmetics, detergents and, increasingly, alternative fuels. The forest diversity was replaced by a single species—the oil palm. Monoculture is easy, productive and rapid. For local people, it provides employment. It is an agriculture industry.

Another example of massive deforestation is the eucalyptus. Eucalyptus is used to make paper pulp. Plantations are growing, as demand for paper has increased fivefold in 50 years. Monoculture of trees are gaining ground all over the world. But a monoculture is not a forest. By definition, there is little diversity. One forest does not replace another forest. At the foot of these eucalyptus trees, nothing grows, because their leaves form a bed that is toxic for most other plants. They grow quickly, but exhaust water reserves.

Soybeans, palm oil, eucalyptus trees—Deforestation destroys the essential to produce the superfluous. But elsewhere, deforestation is a last resort to survive.

Over two billion people—almost a third of the world’s population still depend on charcoal.

In Haiti, one of the world’s poorest countries, charcoal is one of the population’s main consumables. Once the pearl of the Caribbean, Haiti can no longer feed its population without foreign aid. On the hills of Haiti, only two percent of the forests are left. Stripped bare, the soil no longer absorbs the rainwater. With no vegetation and no roots to reinforce them, nothing holds the soils back. The rainwater washes them down the hillsides as far as the sea. Erosion impoverishes the quality of the soils,

reducing their suitability for agriculture.

In some parts of Madagascar, the erosion is spectacular. Whole hillsides bear deep gashes hundreds of meters wide. Thin and fragile, soil is made by living matter. With erosion, the fine layer of humans, which took thousands of years to form, disappears.

Here’s one theory of the story of the R apa Nui, the inhabitants of Easter Island, that could perhaps give us pause for thought. Living on the most isolated island in the world, the Rapa Nui exploited their resources until there was nothing left. Their civilization did not survive. On these lands stood the highest palm trees in the world. They have disappeared. The Rapa Nui chopped them all down for lumber. They then had to face widespread soil erosion. The Rapa Nui could no longer go fishing. There were no trees to build canoes. And yet the Rapa Nui formed one of the most brilliant civilizations in the Pacific. Innovative farmers, sculptors, exceptional navigators, they were caught in a vise of overpopulation and dwindling resources. They experienced social unrest, revolts and famine. Many did not survive the cataclysm.

The real mystery of Easter Island is not how its strange statues got there. We know now. It’s why the Rapa Nui didn’t react in time.

It’s only one of a number of theories, but it has particular relevance to us today.

Since 1950, t he world’s population has almost tripled. And since 1950, we have more fundamentally altered our island, the Earth, than in all of our 200,000-year history.

Nigeria is the biggest oil exporter in Africa, and ye 70% of the population lives

under the poverty line. The wealth is there, but the country’s inhabitants don’t have access to it.

The same is true all over the globe. Half the world’s poor live in resource-rich countries. Our mode of development has not fulfilled its promises. In 50 years, the gap bet ween rich and poor has grown wider than ever. Today, half the world’s wealth is in the hands of the richest two percent of the population.

Can such disparities be maintained? They’re the cause of population movements whose scale we have yet to fully realize.

The city of Lagos had a population of 700,000 in 1960. That will rise to 16 million by 2025. Lagos is one of the fastest-growing megalopolises in the world. The new arrivals are mostly farmers forced off the land for economic or demographic reasons, or because on diminishing resources.

This is a radically new type of urban growth, driven by the urge to survive rather than to prosper. Every week, over a million people swell the population of the world’s cities. One human being in six now lives in a precarious, unhealthy, overpopulated environment, without access to daily necessities such as water, sanitation or electricity.

Hunger is spreading once more. It affects nearly one billion people. All over the planet, the poorest scrabble to survive on scraps, while we continue to dig for resources that we can no longer live without. We look farther and farther afield, in previously unspoilt territory and in regions that are increasingly difficult to exploit.

We’re not changing our model. Oil might run out? We ca n still extract oil from the tar sands of Canada. The biggest trucks in the world move thousands of tons of

经典美剧动作电影盘点:每一部都让人热血 沸腾 1. Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1992) 《终结者2:审判日》(1992) James Cameron's deafening chef-d'oeuvre is the creative peak of late-20th century muscle cinema: the film firebombs you with spectacle, noise and excitement. Arnold Schwarzenegger, returning as a time-travelling cyborg, is elevated from hero to icon. 詹姆斯卡梅隆的这部作品名声震耳欲聋,是20世纪末硬汉电影的创作高峰。片中视觉奇观和激动人心的剧情让你热血沸腾。阿诺施瓦辛格以半机器时间旅行者的形象回归,这个人物已经从英雄角色升华为一代偶像。 2. Fast Five (2011) 《速度与激情5》(2011) Who'd have guessed that summer 2000's hotrod caper flick would push up to 8 installments? It's getting too big for its boots, actually, as the ever-expanding roster of guest stars shoves the running times up and the bombast through the roof. Justin Lin floored it nicely with 2009's Fast Furious, but it's the next one that hit a series-high sweet spot. 谁能想到2000年夏季上映的大马力改装车犯罪电影《速度

百年中国纪录片全集|百年中国经典散文 百年中国经典散文一 中国梦 有人说梦想是一种对未来的奢望,也有人说梦想是不现实的,但我却不同意这样的说法,我认只有先有了梦想,我们才有实现它的可能,如果连想都不敢想,那么就更别提去怎样做了! 中国梦,一个承载了十四亿华夏子孙的梦,中国梦,展现了我们每个中国人高远的志向,中国梦,激起了我们中华儿女“强国富民”的梦。 生为一个中国人,我也有自己的一份中国梦,那就是,“复兴中国古文化,创建世界一流教学”这个梦何尝不是每一位中国学生的梦啊!假如有一天我们的“清华,北大”成为世界的顶尖学校,那么我们每个中国学生不用出国留学,就可以享受世界最好的教育水平,难道这不值得骄傲吗? 中国的古文化,有着5000年的历史,承载了无数哲学家的一生,那么为什么我们的文化不可以像“英语”一样流传于世界那?假如有一天,华夏文明传向世界,那么我们生为华夏子孙,难道不会为了文化的复兴感到自豪吗? 这些梦想一代代的有人去试着完成,终于“中国梦”的接力棒传到了我们的手中,我们肩负了这样的使命,那就让我们去将中华文化

播撒向世界,让世界知道中华文化的内涵。 有人会问,这样远大的国之梦与我们当今生活有什么关系那?我可以坚决的回答“生为中国人,祖国屹立在世界上,我们就屹立在世界上,祖国强大,我们就无比的自豪” 中国梦并不遥远,它承载了十四亿中华儿女的梦,那么终将由我们十四亿中华儿女去完成! 百年中国经典散文二 空山鸟语 到山上来,我最喜欢的事就是听鸟叫。 当然,山上有的是娇艳的花、婆娑的树,有的是奇崛的岩石、爽飒的风、飘逸的云朵;在山上,每一片风景,都会使你神迷。但,我说我还是最喜欢听山里的鸟叫。到山里来,找一片幽深的林子躺下,静静地躺在铺着落叶的土地上,这时你的心灵便贴紧了山的心灵,别动也别想,好好地听一听鸟叫吧! 鸟儿的鸣声是世间最美的语言,你不懂得鸟的语言么? 你不懂鸟的语言么?我想你应该懂的。在山上,谁都喜欢鸟的鸣叫,谁都懂得鸟的语言;谁都懂,清风懂,白云懂,流泉更懂,连挂在树枝上晒太阳的小花蛇也懂。鸟的语言永远叙述着动人的爱情。 在朝来金色的阳光里,我喜欢用大半天时间,去谛听两只鸟在我头顶上鸣叫。他们总是用五个不同的音符串成一支歌。一只先唱,另一只接着,缠缠绵绵,重重复复,透明的情意,像滑滴在青石上的一线灵泉从歌声里迸落。我在小时候就很熟悉这种鸟,绿背黄纹有一只

英语电影字幕翻译策略研究

英语电影字幕翻译策略 研究 集团标准化工作小组 #Q8QGGQT-GX8G08Q8-GNQGJ8-MHHGN#

英语电影字幕翻译策略研究 【摘要】影视翻译者们几乎把“整个世界”搬到中国观众眼前,将世界范围内的优秀影片引进中国。中国广大的电影观众对新鲜事物有着饱满的热情,与此同时,培养一种健康向上的审美心态、获取一种愉悦的审美感受是十分重要的。随着电影业的繁荣发展,电影字幕翻译也被提升到一个较高的位置。 【关键词】英语电影字幕翻译策略 一、前言 我国着名学者钱绍昌曾明确地指出:“译制片受众(观众)的数量远远超过翻译文学作品受众的数量,但与之相反,翻译界对影视翻译的重视却远不如文学翻译”。总的来说,我国的影视翻译研究起步较晚,还没有形成相应的理论体系。 二、“信、达、雅”翻译标准新用 严复在《天演论》卷首的《译例言》中首次提出对中国乃至世界翻译产生重大贡献的“信、达、雅”翻译标准。很多人认为严复所提出的“雅”破坏了“信”和“达”,从字面上来看,的确如此,因为仅仅为追求译文本身的古雅而脱离原文,这样的做法本身极具挑战和危险性,但是从积极乐观的一面来讲,严复的翻译标准极其重视润饰,这是值得我们肯定和关注的,这为后来的翻译美学研究奠定了理论

基础,启发大家在越来越重视美感的时代用一种行之有效的方式追求译文美感。严复的“信、达、雅”翻译标准之所以多年来没有被翻译界抛弃,是因为这简明扼要的三个字把翻译的精髓总结得淋漓尽致,尽管时代赋予了翻译新的意义,但是对严复翻译标准的运用仍然是必不可少的。尤其是在电影字幕翻译中的运用,由于受到电影故事背景、情节、文化内涵以及观影环境等因素的影响,翻译标准必须被赋予全新的内容和要求。 三、“意境说”在字幕翻译中的运用 翻译在中国有着悠久的历史,着名的翻译大家严复、鲁迅、瞿秋白等前辈将翻译提升到了文学艺术的高度。而中国文学艺术着意追求超越客观形象的神韵意味,将自然形象当做表现内在神情气韵的媒介,因而形象刻画并不是中国文学艺术所追求的终极目标(第29页,《中西比较诗学》)。在这样的背景下,“意境说”在英语电影字幕翻译中就会有很大的运用空间,就可以从形式文采美的角度对字幕译文进行深度润饰,使观众通过颇具美感的字幕译文领略电影本身的魅力,进入精彩纷呈的电影世界。 1.偏重于主观的主客观统一。任何文学艺术都是主观与客观的统一,而我们所谓意境,就是意与境浑,主观与客观的统一,(第31页,《中西比较诗学》)而非仅仅局限于主观论断。在英语电影字幕翻译中,要注意主观的意

2005年9月第12卷第5期上海大学学报(社会科学版)Journal of Shanghai University (Social Science )Sep.,2005Vol.12 No.5  收稿日期:2005206220 作者简介:周 星(19582  ),男,江苏灌南人,北京师范大学艺术与传媒学院教授,华东师范大学讲座教授,博士生导师。主要研究方向为影视理论与现状批评。 百年中国电影研究的现状与难题分析 周 星 (北京师范大学 艺术与传媒学院,北京100875) 摘要:中国电影百年史的框架基本具备,但研究个性、独立性、史料性、理论依据、方法论、类型研究、比较研 究等等都不能算完备。难题主要在于阶段划分基本明晰,但细部缺乏梳理;一些阶段尚未深入,许多问题有待研 究;对历史人物的研究粗浅,对历史潮流的演变与形成没有深入的探讨,跨时期的创作现象和作品联系把握都不 足:对电影产业性质历史状态研究和艺术与市场关系研究严重不足。强调今后电影史重写,必然注意艺术的创 造性、产业性(商业性)和政治性之关系。 关键词:中国电影;电影研究;电影史 中图分类号:J 909 文献标识码:A 文章编号:100726522(2005)0520010206 一、百年电影史研究的基本背景 在几代研究者的努力下,中国电影艺术史研究已经取得一定的成绩,但显然存在如何深入的问题。站在当今背景下回望中国电影史研究,深入的前提是检讨过去、端正观念,关键显然是认识电影研究的对象性质。不能不看到,电影从根本上是一种艺术创造,其核心是艺术想像力和艺术创造性,其目的是满足人对精神世界的审美需要,提升人对现实的粗糙认知,实现情感世界的体验需求。但从来电影都不免受制于产业形态的完整与否,局限于资金投入的大小多寡,仰仗于技术水准的发展高低,取决于市场潮流的迁徙变化,以及依赖于社会政治要求的宽大与严苛程度。于是,电影被外在的复杂生存条件遮蔽了内在的丰富艺术追求。电影艺术的精神被淡漠的情形和电影艺术涨落的状况是电影艺术发展的必然现象,中国电影的发展也不例外。我们的责任是认识并把握中国电影行进路途中的潮流变化、艺术类型形成、发展态势与问题,从而认清中国电影艺术的本有规律,研究就应当从这里开始深入。 很明显,中国电影艺术发展历经曲折,而研究主要任务应当是把握特征、认识发展脉络、分析中国电影应当解决的主要问题。在认识中国电影艺术发展的历史时,树立正确的观念尤为重要。首先要建立全面公正的历史观。中国电影的历史就是伴随时代曲折艰难发展的历史,它和时代进程基本一致,所以,脱离时代的空洞评价,超然世外的棒击,都不是客观的。我们既要有学术的独立品格,张扬审美意义上的电影创造,也要实事求是地观人论事。历史就是一面很好的镜子,它的曾经存在就意味着某种合理性,它是不可重复的存在,又延续在当今的创作中。剖析理当实事求是,不顾实际的抹杀不是科学的态度。在以往曲曲折折的历程中,中国电影到底经历了怎样的路途?中国电影的艺术成就究竟体现在何处?如何看待与评价电影艺术?这都离不开对电影史的观照。一些不了解中国电影文化背景的人,常常想当然地以外国电影的理论与经验指斥中国电影,一些不知中国电影发展历经艰难曲折但却取得难得成就的批评家,更漠
