【正文】 公司看到露華濃險(xiǎn)些遭到抵制，擔(dān)心自己也會(huì)招致同樣的憤怒，所以很快也都紛紛效仿。From decades spent working on the side of the weak and oppressed, Henry became efficient at masterminding victory over Revlon didn39。他在與露華濃的抗衡中獲勝，靠的不是財(cái)富、立法者或龐大的政府的幫助。We often assume that society has bee too big and too bureaucratic for individuals to make a could one individual, however humane and passionate, possibly bring about change in the face of powerful global corporations, ministerial indifference and plicated parliamentary rules? 我們經(jīng)常認(rèn)為社會(huì)已經(jīng)變得太大、太官僚，從而個(gè)體不可能改變它。s life was dedicated to the cause of preventing suffering of innocent, helpless animals, especially those used in didn39。他沒(méi)有袖手旁觀，也沒(méi)有試圖為他所看到的苦難復(fù)仇。他采取了行動(dòng)。On April 21, 1996, I sent Henry a fax telling him I was thinking about writing a book to chronicle his life and asked whether I could stay with him for a few days in June to talk about 年 4 月 21 日，我給亨利發(fā)了一份傳真，告訴他我正在考慮寫(xiě)一本記錄其生平和事業(yè)的書(shū)。Henry called that said he39。t sure he was still going to be around in late explained that he39。他說(shuō)他很愿意由我來(lái)寫(xiě)這本書(shū)，但是他不確定自己 6 月下旬是否還會(huì)活在世上。I was in New York six days had lost a lot of weight, and lacked the energy I was used to seeing in life expectancy was a matter of seemed to be stalking 天后我就到了紐約。他的生命只剩幾個(gè)月了。The most remarkable thing about Henry, though, was the total absence of any sign of had been good, he said, refusing to hear my sympathy and said he39。他說(shuō)他一直過(guò)得很好，因而拒絕聽(tīng)我說(shuō)同情和安慰的話。s life did not terminate in the time his doctors the next two years he kept working, helping develop the material I needed for the book, through interviews and I began writing, I never thought Henry would see a pleted draft, but he lived to see the book on sale in a New York , within a week, wearing his favorite striped pajamas, he 。在我開(kāi)始動(dòng)筆的時(shí)候，我從來(lái)沒(méi)想到亨利能看到完整的初稿，但是他一直活到親眼看到書(shū)在紐約的書(shū)店出售。One essential mark of living well is to be satisfied with one39。s life seemed to lack many of the things that most of us take for granted as essential to a good never married, or had a longterm, livein had no children or never went to concerts, to the theater, or to fine didn39。s life depth and purpose? What did hesun, wind, water, and so renewable energy sources are promising, an international confederation of scientists and engineers is working feverishly to overe the various obstacles associated with these “new energy” major challenge is to develop efficient and economically workable versions of these ？在我們完善冷聚變技術(shù)之前，我們只能專(zhuān)注于開(kāi)發(fā)太陽(yáng)能、風(fēng)能、水電能之類(lèi)的可再生能源，并提高其產(chǎn)量。Take solar energy for is a good option because there is an unlimited supply of glittering it work on a large scale, however, is much easier said than would be cost prohibitive to take the intricate gadgets of solar energy from the fringe of “green” society to the mainstream for major world solar apparatus itself is ready for many new business and consumer applications, but it is way too expensive to replace the old bustion machinery of gears and motors with new electronic technology of semiconductors and transistors on a global or even a national 。但是，大規(guī)模地使用太陽(yáng)能卻是說(shuō)起來(lái)容易做起來(lái)難。太陽(yáng)能設(shè)備本身已是技術(shù)成熟，可以使商業(yè)和消費(fèi)者進(jìn)行許多新型應(yīng)用，但是，在全球或者即便是在全國(guó)范圍內(nèi)，用新型的半導(dǎo)體和晶體管電子技術(shù)取代老式的用齒輪和發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)驅(qū)動(dòng)的燃燒設(shè)備，其成本實(shí)在太高。t bee a viable alternative until we can slash the costs , a “wind farm” requires enormous land clearing to produce significant amounts of ，目前在能源市場(chǎng)中也發(fā)展迅速。不幸的是，風(fēng)能非常不穩(wěn)定，其強(qiáng)度取決于當(dāng)?shù)氐奶鞖饽Ｊ?、溫度、季?jié)以及地域。除非我們能將其成本大大降低，否則風(fēng)能就不會(huì)成為一個(gè)可行的替代能源。Hydroelectric power is another source of clean and renewable can be harnessed by controlling the natural outflow of water with different most popular is through dams, which, unfortunately, are no longer considered environmentally of the hydroelectric dams in the world are historically recent, but all reservoirs eventually will fill up with mud and require very expensive excavation to clear them up to bee useful 。最普遍的方法是通過(guò)水壩，但不幸的是，建水壩已被認(rèn)為是對(duì)環(huán)境不利的方法了。Biomass energy derived from plant and animal matter is still another renewable source being considered as a standby replacement for fossil waste in the form of dead trees, leaves, animal corpses and food processing waste exists in abundance and can be used to produce , there is no way to ventilate the direct burning of biomass as fuel without diffusing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the gases can pose a risk to the ozone layer, increasing overall exposure of human beings to harmful UV rays from the , it takes time and money to collect and transport biomass in its raw form to a central point for processing into fuel, and the automation of such a process is too , for the time being, biomass has too many costly drawbacks to be a workable alternative to fossil ，且被認(rèn)為是礦物燃料的備用替代品。然而，將生物質(zhì)作為燃料直接燃燒，通風(fēng)時(shí)必然會(huì)將二氧化碳及其他溫室氣體排放到大氣中。除此以外，將生物質(zhì)以原始形態(tài)進(jìn)行收集，并將它們運(yùn)送到某個(gè)中心站加工處理成燃料，這一過(guò)程既耗時(shí)又耗財(cái)，而且對(duì)這一過(guò)程實(shí)現(xiàn)自動(dòng)化非常困難。Although renewable energies are not yet economically petitive with fossil fuels, their price bees more attractive when pared with the health and environmental costs associated with burning coal and the best solution to our growing energy challenges es in a bulletin from the Union of Concerned Scientists: “Our society39。也許，對(duì)于日益緊迫的能源挑戰(zhàn)，最好的解決辦法正如“憂思科學(xué)家聯(lián)盟”所出的一份簡(jiǎn)報(bào)上所說(shuō)的那樣：“未來(lái)我們社會(huì)的成功不能依賴(lài)于某一單一的解決方案。這些技術(shù)有一個(gè)共同目的：它們不會(huì)耗盡我們的自然資源，也不會(huì)破環(huán)我們的環(huán)境。為了在能源領(lǐng)域開(kāi)創(chuàng)一個(gè)新時(shí)代，我們必須趕快行動(dòng)，努力尋求國(guó)際合作，以找到能源問(wèn)題最有效的解決辦法。s poor and led to food riots, will ，只有地方政府才會(huì)擔(dān)心大范圍的糧食危機(jī)，而如今，糧食價(jià)格的急劇上漲及由此導(dǎo)致的糧食危機(jī)會(huì)很快成為一種全球現(xiàn)象。許多人擔(dān)心小麥供應(yīng)短缺會(huì)引發(fā)其價(jià)格膨脹，他們害怕 2007 年使世界窮人遭受重創(chuàng)并引發(fā)食品騷亂的飛漲的糧食價(jià)格會(huì)再次出現(xiàn)。t think of wheat are at sufficiently high levels, and harvest turnout from other big producers like the US is expected to stay unlike in 2007, the supply situation isn39。目前小麥的儲(chǔ)備非常充足，并且，重要農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)國(guó)如美國(guó)等的農(nóng)作物生產(chǎn)也有望十分強(qiáng)勁。However, this rosy picture provides only temporary bigger picture discloses a reality not so current prices aren39。re still at higher levels than before and are likely to stay that Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development sees the average prices of products classified as essential such as grains, vegetable oils, and dairy products rising for the next ，這一美好的畫(huà)面只能帶來(lái)短暫的安心。雖然目前糧食價(jià)格沒(méi)有達(dá)到 2007 年引起恐慌的市場(chǎng)上的那種天價(jià)，但和以前相比，價(jià)格仍然居高不下，而且很有可能維持這樣。It
