戈爾：COP26

係一場討論氣候議題嘅締約方會議，

Al Gore: COP26,

the Conference of the Parties on the climate treaty,

聚集左嚟自世界各地嘅國家，

協商集體決策，

is where every nation in the world comes together

處理氣候危機。

菲格雷斯：COP26

to negotiate collective action

即將要喺不久嘅將來

to solve the climate crisis.

喺格拉斯哥舉行，

Christiana Figueres: COP26,

which is the one that is coming up now,

呢次係第二十六次所有政府齊聚一堂，

in Glasgow,

is the 26th time that these governments are getting together

坦白講，就係繼續巴黎協定嘅討論。

to do, frankly, follow-up to the Paris Agreement.

佢地必須好好地坐低，

相互報告佢地喺巴黎協定後採取左邊啲措施。

They need to come to the table

to report to each other what they have done since Paris,

最重要嘅係，

承諾佢地會喺將來嘅五到十年入面

and most importantly,

（喺人類歷史上最決定性嘅時刻）

commit to each other what further efforts they’re going to do

會再更進一步咁採取點樣嘅措施。

over the next five-to-10 years --

耶爾伍德：呃，第一件關於COP26嘅事係

the most decisive decade in the history of humanity.

一般人應該會發現，

Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr.: Well, the first thing with COP26

呢啲名字有好多類似嘅簡稱。

所以，不幸嘅係，

that the average viewer should find --

宜家正好就有一個叫 IPCC

there’s a lot of acronyms.

-- 政府間氣候變化專門委員會。

So, unfortunately, there’s one right now,

佢地提出一份報告指出，我地還剩十二年，

the IPCC:

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

而且已經係三年半之前講嘅事啦。

did a report that said that we had 12 years.

穆尼奧斯：COP26 係受到

Now that was three-and-a-half years ago.

IPCC 最新發表嘅兩篇報告

Gonzalo Muñoz: And COP26 is also a COP that has been affected,

所正面影響嘅一屆 COP。

I would say positively,

by the last two IPCC reports.

科學界係 2018 年 10 月強調

Science spoke very loudly in October 2018

喺一份IPCC嘅報告中表示氣溫會升高1.5度。

今日之前幾個月，

with the IPCC report of 1.5 degrees.

我地喺八月收到

And just a few months from today,

we received this sixth report in August

稱為「人權紅色代碼」嘅第六次報告，

呢兩份報告令我地能夠明白

that was named as a red code for humanity.

遵循科學嘅重要性，

Those two reports are allowing us to understand

而如果我地唔遵循

the importance of following science

果啲報告中嘅科學證據

and the big risk that we have in front of us

就要面對眼前嘅最大風險。

if we don’t follow the science,

菲格雷斯：佢地喺COP26中

as is indicated in those reports.

要達成嘅共識相當重要，

CF: The commitments that are going to be made at COP26 are critically important

because they will tell us whether we are on track

因為咁樣可以反映出我地係 朝著 2030 年必須實現嘅目標前進：

將全球排放量從宜家嘅水平減少一半。

to the goal that has to be reached by 2030,

which is cutting global emissions from where they are today to 50 percent.

巴斯蒂達：呢個議題並唔係咁貼近日常生活，

我地呢啲活動家要搭起科學

Xiye Bastida: The language is not everyday language,

and it is the job of us as activists to be communicators of the science

與這些閉門決策和大眾之間嘅橋樑。

and of the decisions that happen behind these walls.

青少年嘅參與相當重要，

因為我地可以帶嚟急切性。

The involvement of youth is really important

仲有，我認為當地人嘅聲音相當重要，

because we bring the element of urgency.

因為當地人嘅想法

And I think that including indigenous voices is critical,

和照料大地嘅哲學，

because Indigenous knowledge

and Indigenous philosophy of taking care of Mother Earth as a reciprocal action

係我地所要達成嘅範式轉變嘅一部分。

穆尼奧斯：我地每個人可以而且一定要 喺大大小小嘅事上付諸於行動。

is part of the paradigm shift that we need to achieve.

GM: Every one of us can and must deliver actions at different scales.

唔係只有政治領袖、

商業領袖或金融機構。

每個人都有能力做決定，

Not only political leaders --

business leaders, financial institutions,

而決策者有特別嘅機會，

成為面對人類史上

everyone that has a capacity of taking a decision --

the decision-makers --

they have the unique opportunity of being part of the most important challenge

最重要嘅挑戰嘅一份子。

耶爾伍德：我希望你唔好失去信念；

我祈求你唔好失去信念。

that we have ever faced as a species.

我曾經見到你地其中有人想退出。

LY Jr.: I hope you don’t lose hope;

唔好退出，

I pray you don’t lose hope.

唔好放棄，

唔好屈服。

I’ve seen some of you want to check out.

戰鬥到最後。

無論你做乜都好，

Don’t check out,

don’t give up,

我地一齊為呢個星球拼搏。

don’t give in.

Fight to the end.

[倒數計時]

Whatever you do,

keep fighting for this planet.

[Countdown]
