Per què ara?
00:03
The best time to act was yesterday.

Hauríem d'haver-ho fet ahir
00:05
The second best time is today.

però també ho podem fer avui.
00:09
Every year that we don't reduce emissions
4
9560
1971
Cada any que passa sense reduir emissions
00:11
represents another 55 gigatons
of greenhouse gases

són 55 gigatones
de gasos d'efecte hivernacle
00:15
that future generations
will have to scrub out of the air.

que les properes generacions
hauran de netejar.
00:19
That would cost 8 trillion dollars a year,
7
19460
2796
Ens costaria 8 bilions de dòlars l'any
00:22
almost half the entire US economy today.
8
22280
3076
la meitat de l'economia dels EUA.
00:25
And that price doesn't include
the cost of people forced to move,
9
25380
3716
I no inclou el cost
de la gent que s'haurà de traslladar,
00:29
the natural world transformed
and lives lost.

que no emetin diòxid de carboni
00:38
than to capture carbon dioxide
that we've already emitted.
13
38030
3846
que haver de capturar
tot el que ja hem emès.
00:41
Every ton of carbon dioxide we emit now
imposes a burden on us and the planet,
14
41900
6306
Cada tona de diòxid de carboni
que emetem ara
suposa una càrrega
per a nosaltres i pel planeta
00:48
but also a debt that would
have to be paid by our children
15
48230
3338
però sobretot un deute
que pagaran els nostres fills
00:51
and untold generations to come.
16

i incomptables generacions futures.
00:54
The sooner we start fixing this,
