英国和爱尔兰的野生动物 The wildlife of Britain and Ireland
媲美得上我去过的任何地方 rivals that of any place I have visited.
强大的掠食者巡逻在我们的海岸线 Powerful predators patrol our coastlines
和山顶 and mountain tops.
勇敢的旅行者跋涉数百英里来拜访我们 Intrepid travellers journey for hundreds of miles to visit us,
成千上万的动物聚集在一起 创造了一些最引人注目的 and thousands regularly assemble to create some of the most dramatic
野生动物奇观 of wildlife spectacles.
几个世纪以来 这些野生空间激发了我们的想象力 For centuries, these wild spaces have fired our imagination
确立了我们的身份 and established our identity.
是翠鸟！对对对！ It is a kingfisher! Yes, yes, yes!
大自然让你感到平静 Nature makes you feel calm.
它让你感觉很好 It makes you feel really good.
非常神奇 It's very magical.
我最喜欢大自然的是所有生命的相互联系 What I love most about nature is the interconnectedness of all life.
几代人以来 我们一直赞美自然世界的美丽 For generations, we have celebrated the beauty of the natural world
就在我们国家 right here at home.
我认为这一切始于热爱和关注 I think it all starts with paying attention.
当你身临其境的时候 And, while you're there,
有时候最不可思议的事情会发生 sometimes the most incredible things will happen.
然而 随着自然逐渐消失 And yet, as it gradually disappeared,
我们却没有注意到它的变化 we barely noticed the change.
我记得小时候 I can remember as a little boy,
农场的生物多样性令人惊叹 the biodiversity on farms was just amazing.
如今和那时拥有的鸟类相比 简直是天壤之别 The birdlife was out of this world compared to today.
突然间 它们几乎都消失了 And now, suddenly, it is nearly gone.
我看到的都是房子 建筑和人 All I see is houses, buildings, people.
今天 有四分之一的哺乳动物 Today, one quarter of all our species of mammals
面临着灭绝的危险 are at risk of extinction
三分之一的鸟类也是如此 as are one third of our birds.
在短短20年内 我们的飞虫数量减少了60% In just 20 years, our flying insects have declined by 60%.
我们现在是地球上自然资源最枯竭的 We are now one of the most nature-depleted countries
国家之一 on the planet.
我们通常把大自然看作是一种美丽的东西 Too often, we have regarded nature as something it's nice to have.
但事实上 它支撑着让我们的生活成为一切可能 But in fact, it underpins everything that makes our lives possible.
在这部影片中 我们将遇到鼓舞人心的人 In this film, we'll meet inspiring people,
以及致力恢复自然界的年轻人和老年人 young and old, who are working to restore the natural world.
毫无疑问 有一种感觉 要么是自然 There's undoubtedly the feeling that it's either nature,
要么是食物生产 两者永远不会相遇 or it's food production and never the twain shall meet.
而我认为这是完全相反的 And I think it's the complete opposite of that.
我们会发现我们都需要紧急修复 And we'll discover that we all need to urgently repair
我们与自然界的关系 our relationship with the natural world.
大自然不止是你的 也是每个人的 Nature is yours. Nature is everybody's.
我们现在还有时间 在这期间我们仍然可以做出选择 We now have a few short years during which we can still make a choice.
现在已经到了不容出错的重要时刻 It's now at a point where it's too important to get it wrong.
世界各地人们开始爱护自然 使它恢复 Where just enough remains of the natural world for it to recover.
这一切因我们而起 也因我们而终 This starts and ends with us.
杓鹬萦绕心头的叫声 The haunting call of the curlew.
尽管这些岛屿上仍有世界上四分之一的 Though these isles are still home to around a quarter
杓鹬种群 of the world's curlews,
但曾经熟悉的声音如今已很少听到 this once familiar sound is rarely heard today.
在它们漫长的一生中 这些鸟依赖于富裕的 Over their long lives, these birds rely on the rich
冬季海岸觅食地 winter feeding grounds on the coast.
春季 杓鹬飞往内陆寻找最佳地点 And in spring, curlew fly inland to find the best place
来抚养后代 to raise their young.
但每年 它们脚下的土地都会发生变化 But each year, the land beneath them changes.
从地面上看 它可能是令人愉悦的绿色 It may be green and pleasant seen from the ground,
但在空中看去 却揭露了另一个真相 but taking to the air reveals a different truth.
它是绿色的 但不是自然的 It is green, but this is not natural.
一只杓鹬在寻找一块野生的土地筑巢 A curlew looking for a patch of country wild enough to allow it
这时它会发现一片又一片相同的土地 to make a nest finds mile upon mile of identical fields.
在短短几十年间 In just a few decades,
我们的乡村面貌已变得面目全非 our countryside has changed beyond all recognition.
我们在土地上喷洒了农药 We have sprayed the land with pesticides,
推倒了数英里长的树篱 torn down miles of hedgerows,
摧毁了珍贵的古老森林 and destroyed valuable ancient woodlands.
我们乡村的大片土地曾经回荡着野生动物 Vast swathes of our countryside that once thrummed with the sounds
现在几乎已经沉寂了 of wildlife have now fallen silent.
但这只杓鹬克服重重困难找到了筑巢的地方 But against the odds, this curlew finds a spot to make her nest
在一个偏远的高地农场 on a remote upland farm.
影响杓鹬的不仅仅是土地的改变 It's not just the changes in farming practises that affect curlew.
食肉动物的增加和气候的变化 An increase in predators and changes in the climate
也大大降低了它们的存活率 have also drastically reduced their chances.
只有四分之一的小杓鹬能活过第一年 Only a quarter of all our curlew chicks survive their first year.
如今 为了养活越来越多的牲畜 Today, in order to feed the increasing numbers of livestock,
我们的草地一年要被收割很多次 our grasslands are cut many times a year,
使得像杓鹬这样的地面筑巢鸟类 making it ever harder for ground-nesting birds like curlew.
在一生中 它们的数量至少减去了一半 In her lifetime, the curlew numbers have halved.
但仍有希望 But there is cause for hope.
我们的一些高地农场正在尝试一种新方法 Some of our upland farms are trying a different approach.
在过去 如果我在草地上看到一朵花 In the olden days, if I'd seen a flower in the meadow,
那可不是件好事 that would've been a bad thing.
我在很多农场工作过 我接受的教育非常传统 I was educated very conventionally, and I worked on a lot of farms
一直到90年代 through the '90s.
我的动力来自于我周围的农民 And I was motivated by what all the other farmers around me
那就是尽我们所能生产更多的羔羊 were motivated by, and that was about producing
尽可能获得更多的草 as many lambs as I possibly could.
而我们耕种的方式就是减少花的数量 And the way we farmed was about reducing the number of flowers,
我们要尽一切所能得到草 and it was about getting as much grass as we possibly could,
给土地补种 施肥和喷洒 and it was about reseeding land putting fertiliser on and spraying,
诸如此类的事情 and all those kind of things.
我叫尼尔·赫塞尔廷 My name is Neil Heseltine.
我是个牛羊养殖户 I'm a beef and sheep farmer,
我和我的搭档莉在这里经营农场 and I farm here with my partner, Leigh.
我们还有个女儿 维奥莱特 And we also have a daughter, Violet.
尼尔在马勒姆的山顶农场生活和工作 Neil lives and works at Hill Top Farm, in Malham,
位于约克郡山谷国家公园的南部边缘 on the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
山顶农场是我出生和长大的地方 The Hill Top Farm is where I was born and brought up
还有我的四个姐妹 with my four sisters.
我父亲在17岁时和父母搬到这里 It's where my dad moved to when he was 17, with his parents.
这也许是我们最钟爱的风景之一 This is one of our most beloved landscapes.
由大自然和几个世纪的农耕所塑造 Shaped by nature and centuries of farming,
它展现了绿色宜人的土地形象 it epitomises our image of a green and pleasant land.
但是 尽管景色优美 But, despite the view,
这里野生动物却前景黯淡 the outlook for wildlife here has been bleak.
几个世纪以来 养羊业一直统治着约克郡山谷 Sheep farming has dominated the Yorkshire Dales for centuries.
如果不加控制 羊群可以把植物啃到只剩地皮 Left unchecked, sheep can graze plants down to the ground before
植物几乎没有机会立足 they've even had a chance to establish themselves.
在鼎盛时期 山顶农场是800多只羊的家园 At its peak, Hill Top Farm was home to more than 800 sheep
大自然也因此遭受重大损失 and nature suffered as a result.
但是15年前 当地的一个保护项目 But 15 years ago, a local conservation project
给了尼尔一个革命性的机会 presented Neil with an opportunity which was revolutionary.
正是那个石灰石乡村项目改变了我们 It was that Limestone Country Project that changed our whole
改善了以往的养殖方式 philosophy of how we farmed.
尼尔的羊群只剩下100只了 Neil reduced the flock to just 100,
通过增加了一些新成员 这改变了他的农场 and found some new recruits that transformed his farm
加洛韦牛 Belted Galloway cattle.
当它们第一次来到农场时 它们确实有点名气 When they first came to the farm, they did come with a bit
我记得第一批来了八头牛 of a reputation, and I remember the first eight arriving,
我们开着拖车来到这片100英亩的土地上 and we drove onto this 100-acre field, and the back door
拖车后门突然打开 这些小母牛就蹿了出来 of the trailer went down, and these heifers just shot out of
消失在田野的地平线上 this trailer, ran across a field, over the horizon.
我当时在想“我们再也见不到那些牛了” I just thought, "We'll never see those cattle again."
尼尔的羊整个冬天都必须关在室内 Neil's sheep had to be kept inside over winter.
但加洛韦牛是一种耐寒的本土品种 But Belted Galloways are a hardy native breed
并且能够常年生活在户外 and are able to live outdoors year round,
这大大降低了成本 drastically reducing his costs.
我们已经意识到在这里所做的一切 What we've realised is just how important they are
它们是多么的重要 to everything that we do here.
我们尽可能以自然的方式管理农场 We try and manage the Belties as naturally as we possibly can.
我们把它们当作野生动物对待 We treat them in a way where they are just part of the wildlife.
所以 现在有小牛犊在山上出生 So, there's calves being born out on the hill at the moment,
其中还有野兔 and there's leverets among them.
而且还有其他好处 And there are other benefits.
牛没有羊那么挑剔 Cows are less fussy than sheep.
它们啃食一簇簇的草 They pull clumps of grass,
在它们这样做的时候开辟了地面 disturbing the ground as they do so,
这使得野花得以茁壮成长 and that allows wild flowers to prosper.
这为野生动物创造了栖息地 This creates habitat for wildlife
这对赫塞尔廷夫妇来说是一种激励 and has been a revelation for the Heseltines.
让大自然用自己的方式表达自己 It just allowed nature to express itself.
从植物角度上看 That was either botanically
我们拥有了更多种类的花 so we got more species of flowers on the land,
我们也得到了更多利用栖息地的鸟类 and we also got more birds that were able to use the habitat
生活在农场 that was on the farm.
通过在夏天转移牛群 By moving the herd around in the summer,
草地有机会在尼尔收割之前长得更高 the meadows have a chance to grow tall before Neil
推迟到八月下旬收割 does a single late cut in August.
不受干扰的夏季 是繁殖成功的关键 The undisturbed summer months are crucial to the breeding success
使濒临灭绝的鸟类得以恢复 of endangered ground-nesting birds.
令全家人高兴的是 And, much to the family's delight,
杓鹬的叫声又回到了农场 the call of the curlew has returned to the farm.
这只是给了大自然一个机会 It's just giving nature that opportunity.
它必须保持生态平衡 It has to be completely in balance,
这就是我们所追求的 and that's what we're absolutely after here.
但我们也意识到 我们对自然的投入越多 But what we started to realise was that the more we put nature
自然回赠也越丰厚 at the forefront of what we did,
我们意识到农场的盈利也开始提高了 we realised that the profitability of the farm improved, as well.
通过与大自然合作 Not only is the farm more profitable,
农场不仅利润更高 but by working with nature,
它现在捕获的碳比释放的碳多 it now captures more carbon than it releases.
很明显 一般的红肉 特别是牛肉 And obviously, beef in particular, but red meat in general
对环境的影响方面名声并不好 gets a bad reputation, in terms of its impact upon the environment.
我只是觉得 And we just feel that here,
我们有点反潮流了 we're bucking that trend a little bit.
实际上我们认为这是一个共赢的局面 We actually think it's a multiple-win situation
不管是商业方面 whether that be the business side of it,
还是环境方面 以及气候变化 whether that be the environment, the climate change,
甚至是动物本身 or even the animals themselves.
赫塞尔廷已经证明了农业是可良性发展的 The Heseltines have shown that farming can be profitable
同时也能增加生物多样性和碳储存 while at the same time increasing biodiversity and storing carbon.
但是像我们这样人口众多 But with a population as large as ours,
小农场不可能养活所有人 small farms by themselves can't feed everyone.
我们有三分之一的农业用地 用来种植农作物 A third of our agricultural land is used to grow crops.
在萨福克郡 巴克一家一直在大规模耕种土地 Here in Suffolk, the Barker family have been working the land
几十年来一直如此 on a vast scale for decades.
我们是一个适当集约化的耕地农场 We are a proper, intensive arable farm.
帕特里克和他的表弟布莱恩耕种了1300英亩的耕地 Patrick and his cousin Brian farm 1,300 acres of arable land.
我们种了小麦、大麦、牧草、黑麦草、春豆 We grow wheat, barley, herbage, rye-grass, spring beans.
所有这些作物要么进入食物链 要么进入加工厂 All those crops either go into the food chain or go into industry.
除了高产作物 巴克兄弟还用另一种方式 As well as their high-yielding crops, the Barkers have another way
来衡量农场的成功 by which they measure success on the farm.
生物多样性 Biodiversity.
对我们来说 自然环境是最重要的 For us, the natural environment is at the forefront
拥有我们所需的一切 of everything we think about.
我们的每一项业务都会评估对环境造成的影响 Our environmental impact is assessed on every operation we do.
猫头鹰在2009年回来了 现在我们有五对幼鸟 Barn owls came back in 2009, and now we have five pairs breeding.
所以 今年它们都成功养育了后代 So, this year, they've all successfully raised chicks.
农场里又一只健康的猫头鹰 Another healthy barn owl on the farm.
在任何一年里 我都希望在这个农场里能记录到400个物种 In any year, I would expect to record 400 species on this farm,
那就是鸟类 蝴蝶 飞蛾 蜻蜓 大黄蜂 and that is birds, butterflies, moths, dragonflies, bumblebees,
凡是你能想到的哺乳动物 我们都在寻找并记录 mammals you name it, we're looking for it and recording it.
所有这些物种结合在一起的方式 And the way all these species fit together, it's all part
在整个农场生态系统中 of this whole farm ecosystem,
这就形成了一个非常健康的环境 which just makes for a really healthy landscape.
这就是巴克一家在洛奇农场所做一切事情 And that is at the heart of everything the Barkers do
的核心 at Lodge Farm.
他们培育了旧的树篱 又种了新的 They've nurtured old hedgerows and planted new ones.
他们还修复了池塘 They've restored ponds
并在边缘和草地上种植野花 and have planted wild flowers on margins and meadows.
他们知道繁荣的野生动物也有助于农场 They know that thriving wildlife also helps the farm
其主要重点是种植健康的作物 with its primary focus growing healthy crops.
我相信我们可以拥有一个高产的农场 I believe we can have a farm that is productive,
种植粮食或工业作物的同时 that grows food or grows crops for industry, and at the same time,
也能拥有一个充满野生动物的农场 we can have a farm that's full of wildlife.
所以我不接受任何人对我说 "选择其中之一" So, I don't accept anyone saying to me, "It's one or the other."
这是关于生态的一个整体平衡 This is about creating a whole balance
不管是自然环境还是农业环境 where the natural environment and the farming environment
都可以和谐共处 can be in harmony together.
在以下方面 这种平衡尤为重要 This balance is particularly vital when it comes to
农场最宝贵的资源是土壤 the farm's most precious resource its soil.
健康的土壤支持更多生物的多样性 Healthy soil supports greater biodiversity.
它能储存碳 还能防止洪水和干旱 It stores carbon, and it helps to prevent flooding and drought.
但土壤健康恶化是如今农业共同面对的 But deteriorating soil health is one of the biggest problems
最大问题之一 facing farming today.
土壤本身就是一个生态系统 我们必须珍惜它 The soil is an ecosystem on its own, and if that's working for us,
而不是去糟蹋它 rather than us working against it,
健康的土壤耕种会更好 更容易 it's going to be better to farm, easier to farm,
我们就能种出更好的作物 we can grow better crops as a result.
巴克鼓励发展良好的土壤结构 The Barkers have encouraged good soil structure
通过减少耕地的数量 by reducing the amount they plough
减少杀虫剂的使用 and minimising their use of pesticides.
作为一个行业 我们已经养成了一个坏习惯 We've kind of got into a bit of a bad habit as an industry
在我们可能需要的地方使用杀虫剂 of using pesticides where we MIGHT need them,
而不是我们真正需要的地方 not where we really do need them.
瓢虫在这里替我们干活 The ladybirds are doing the work for us here.
你知道 它们是我们的农场工人 You know, they are our farm workers.
如果我带着杀虫剂从这里喷过去 If we went through here with an insecticide to spray off
消灭黑豆蚜虫 these black bean aphids,
我们可能会把蚜虫以外的物种都杀死 we could be taking out all those other insects that we actually need
影响生态链 as part of this farm landscape.
瓢虫本身也是农场里其它野生动物的食物 And the ladybirds themselves become food for wildlife on the farm.
一个健康的农业生态系统 For us, this is a farming system
这对我们农田里的野生动物有好处 that's good for our farmland wildlife,
对我们的银行存款有好处 good for our bank balance,
对我们的碳足迹有好处 it's good for our carbon footprint.
这对我们人类有好处 因为我们真的很享受 It's good for us as people, because we actually really enjoy
我每天都上班 coming to work every day.
巴克一家经营着有利可图的生意 The Barkers are running a profitable business
生产对健康有益的食品 growing healthy, wholesome food,
并证明了集约化耕作是可行的 and showing it's possible to farm intensively
同时也恢复了我们的自然环境 whilst also restoring our wild isles.
毫无疑问 每个农场都能做到和我们一样好 Absolutely every farm in the country can do some of what we do.
现在已经到了不容出错的重要时刻 It's now at a point where it's too important to get it wrong.
如果我们做了一些 If we do things that are to the detriment
有损于自然环境的行为 of the natural environment,
实际上 可能那些赖以生存的物种 actually, there'll probably be no coming back for a lot
以后都不会回来了 of the species that rely on it.
好了 让我们来看看我们在周围发现了什么 OK, so let's have a look what we've found on our walk around.
但他们的工作不止于此 But their work doesn't stop there.
有人知道啄木鸟会发出什么样的声音吗？ Does anyone know what noise a green woodpecker makes?
他们定期邀请当地的学生到农场参观 They regularly invite local schoolchildren to the farm
去了解和享受野生动物 to learn about and enjoy the wildlife.
巴克希望向下一代展示他们的食物 The Barkers hope that showing the next generation how their food
会加强他们与自然界的联系 is grown will strengthen their connection to the natural world.
我觉得有一件事很重要 那就是能够 I think there's something really important about being able to be
与你周围发生的一切保持联系 in touch with everything that's going on around you.
如果你走进一家超市 你可以轻松买到 If you go into a supermarket, the ease at which you can go and buy
从千里之外运来的商品 something that was shipped from thousands of miles away kind of
这让你脱离了种植生物的有机生长过程 really detaches you from the organic process of growing things
或者欣赏 饲养动物过程 or rearing animals, or kind of appreciating
世界是如何以自然形态存在的 how the world exists in its natural form,
而不是我们去想象它 rather than how we perceive it.
我觉得能外出 身临其境的感觉真好 And I think it's nice to be able to go out and be free,
把自己和那种乐趣联系起来 and connect yourself to that kind of fun
无拘无束的自然状态 natural anarchy that exists.
尤塔拉是“群聚”的一员 Jutalla is a member of Flock Together
有色人种的观鸟团体 a bird-watching group for people of colour.
那是翠鸟 That is a kingfisher!
对对对 在哪里？ Yes, yes, yes, yes! Where?
刚刚在画眉鸟的下面 Just went underneath where the mistle thrush is.
看 能不能看到 Let's see if we can see it.
就在里面 是的 It's right in there, yeah.
我叫纳迪姆·佩雷拉 My name is Nadeem Perera.
我是一个狂热的观鸟者 也是一名青少年足球教练 I am an avid bird watcher, I'm a youth football coach,
野生动物电影的制作人 I'm a wildlife film-maker,
我还是“群聚”的联合创始人 and I'm also co-founder of Flock Together.
我非常相信 如果你把时间花在大自然中 I really honestly do believe that if you spend time in nature,
大脑会自动放松 the mind is wired to automatically relax.
哦耶 哦耶 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah!
你会被赋予洞察力 You will be afforded perspective,
然后你就会开始真正体会到 and you will then begin to truly appreciate the value
自然界的价值 of the natural world.
刚刚在那边发现了些东西 Just spotted something over there.
那里有东西 There's something there!
哦 天哪 是的 你的望远镜呢? Oh, gosh, yeah. Don't need your binoculars for that, do you?
噢 真漂亮 Oh, beautiful.
我不知道它的嘴巴是黄色的 I didn't know that it had that yellow marking on its,
就像 鸟的下喙 like, under-beak.
非常华丽 Gorgeous.
但进入野生空间的机会不都是平等的 But access to our wild spaces is far from equal.
有色人种更容易遭受偏见 People of colour are more likely to face prejudice
在乡下 in the countryside.
我在萨默塞特长大 I grew up in in Somerset, and
你可以看到我是一个黑人女性 当我还是个孩子的时候 You can see that I'm a Black woman, and when I was a kid, I was
我走在大自然中总感觉有点不自在 Going out in nature then always felt a little bit like
人们看着我就像“你在这里干什么？” people looked at me, like, "What are you doing here?
“这个地方不适合你” "This space isn't for you."
而我只能从我自己的经历来说 And I can only speak from my own experience,
但我不想让任何人也有这种感觉 but I never want anybody else to feel that way.
所以我们团体一起散步 And so, coming on our walks with Flock Together,
这有助于消除一些障碍 it helps to eliminate some of that barrier,
同时也帮助了其他非黑人或棕色人种 and it also helps other people who aren't Black or Brown,
大自然向来都是属于我们每一人的 or Indigenous to get used to seeing that nature is for everybody.
我们都来自大自然 We all come from nature,
我们都应该为此腾出时间 and we all ought to make time for it.
它不仅对我们有好处 对自然也有好处 Not only is it good for us, it's also good for nature.
因为正如我们所知 自然在快速消失 它正受到威胁 Because as we know, nature is fast disappearing, it's under threat in
世界上如此多的地方 每一处都需要 so many parts of the world, if not all of it, and it needs
我们所有人去保护它 all of us on board to protect it.
所以每个人都要贡献自己的一份力量 So, everybody needs to chip in and do their bit.
在过去的几十年里 我们都失去了一些珍贵的东西 In the last few decades, we have all lost something precious.
我们的生活已经与大自然的节奏脱节 Our lives have become disconnected from the rhythms of nature,
季节 以及我们食物的来源 the seasons, and the places from which our food comes.
而作为岛国 我们中没有人生活在 And as island nations where none of us can live
离海70英里外 more than 70 miles from the sea,
我们与海洋的联系尤其重要 this is especially true for our connection to the ocean.
英国和爱尔兰的海岸 The shores of Britain and Ireland
对全球范围的海鸟来说具有重要意义 are globally important for sea birds.
我们的水域 是全球65%鸟类的家园 Our waters are home to 65% of the global population
有北部鲣鸟 of northern gannets,
以及占世界上大多数的马恩岛海鸥 and almost all of the world's Manx shearwaters.
也许最具魅力的海鸟是海鹦 Perhaps the most charismatic of our sea birds is the puffin.
它们面临的挑战清楚地反映了我们许多 Their challenges clearly reflect the problems confronting
其他海洋物种面临的问题 many of our other marine species.
在冬季的海上呆了几个月后 After months at sea during the winter,
海鹦每年春天都会回来交配并养育后代 puffins return each spring to mate and raise their young.
这只雌海鹦在地下藏着一个秘密 This female puffin has a secret hidden away below ground.
一只两周大的幼鸟 A puffling, only two weeks old.
她今年只会抚养一只 She will only raise one chick this year.
她和伴侣必须每天喂食幼鸟五次 She and her partner must feed their chick five times a day.
鸟喙之间微妙的接触加强了它们之间的联系 The delicate touching of beaks strengthens the bond between them
在她即将离开之前 before she leaves.
她现在必须长途跋涉到觅食地 She must now make a long journey to the feeding grounds.
海鹦最喜欢的猎物是沙鳗 Puffins' favourite prey are sandeels
富含丰富的油脂和营养 which are packed with rich oils and nutrients.
它们占北海所有鱼类的四分之一 They account for a quarter of all the fish in the North Sea
在海鹦的食物中占很大比例 and form a large proportion of the puffin's diet.
但是今天 沙鳗正以惊人的速度消失 But today, sandeels are disappearing at an alarming rate.
海洋变暖减少了浮游生物的数量 Warming seas have reduced the availability of the plankton
沙鳗正以其为食 on which the sandeels feed.
而工业化规模的捕鱼进一步减少了鱼群 And fishing on an industrial scale has further reduced the shoals.
我们的海鹦现在不得不飞得更远 更努力干活 Our puffins are now having to fly further and work harder
为每一顿饭奔波 for every meal.
它们的幼鸟能否存活就悬在了一线 And the very survival of their chicks is hanging in the balance.
据预测 我们的海鹦数量在接下来的25年里 It's predicted that our puffin population could have dropped
可能会下降减少90% by as much as 90% in the next 25 years
超过一百万只鸟的损失 a loss of over a million birds.
海底生物也不安全 Life on the seafloor is not safe either.
在某些地方 我们的海床比陆地上的 In places, our seabeds are richer and more diverse than
任何栖息地都更丰富 any habitat on our land.
一些水下群落非常美丽 Some underwater communities are extraordinarily beautiful.
蛇尾海星的群体不断激增 Colonies of brittle stars proliferate.
海藻床 一种坚硬脆弱的海藻 Beds of maerl, a type of hard, fragile seaweed
需要几百年才能形成 that take hundreds of years to form.
它们为扇贝提供了家园 They provide a home for scallops.
每种贝类都有大约200只小眼睛 Each of these shellfish has about 200 small eyes.
它们靠从洋流中过滤浮游生物为生 They live by filtering out plankton from the ocean currents
围着它们转 that swirl around them.
海星会捕食扇贝 Starfish prey on scallops.
但要做到这一点 它们必须不被发现地进入壳内 But to do so, they have to get inside the shells undetected.
失手了 Missed it.
扇贝的活动能力惊人 Scallops are surprisingly mobile,
它们能活20年 and they can live up to 20 years.
但今天有一种威胁 它们无处可逃 But today, there are threats that they cannot escape.
扇贝采捞机 The scallop dredge.
一排排沉重的金属牙齿拖在船后 Rows of heavy metal teeth dragged behind a boat
用推土机在海床上开出一条路 bulldoze their way across the seabed,
留下了毁灭和死亡 leaving behind them destruction and death.
我们95%的扇贝都是这样采集的 95% of our scallops are collected in this way.
每捕到一个扇贝 And for every scallop caught,
另外四种鱼类则被挖泥船捕杀并作为副渔获物收集 four other species are killed and collected by the dredge as by-catch.
从长远来看 这种破坏性不分青红皂白的收获 In the long term, this destructive, indiscriminate harvest
对当地渔业社区的损害不亚于 is as damaging to local fishing communities
对海洋生物本身的损害 as it is to the marine life itself.
然而 还有另一种选择 Yet, there is an alternative.
扇贝可以无损害 持续地收获 Scallops can be harvested sustainably and without damaging
就是潜水员用手把它们捡起来 the seafloor by divers, who pick them up by hand.
如今 英国大约三分之一的鱼类资源被过度捕捞 Today, around a third of UK fish stocks are overfished.
在某些地方 我们从海洋中捕捞生物的速度 In places, we're removing life from the ocean faster
超过了它自我恢复的速度 than it can replenish itself.
但还有另一种方法 But there is another way.
50年前 在北德文郡海岸 50 years ago, off the coast of North Devon,
当地人聚集在一起创造了英国第一个 local people got together to create the UK's first

海水每小时都在变化 The sea changes every hour.
伦迪岛有自己的小气候 Lundy has its own microclimate.
很多时候 你去那里找不到那个岛 And quite often, you go there and you can't find the island
因为它被雾笼罩着 because it's covered in fog.
它被称为迷雾之岛是有原因的 It's called the Misty Island for good reason.
伦迪岛位于布里斯托尔海峡 Lundy Island, in the Bristol Channel,
只有三英里长 is just three miles long
但它周围的海域有世界上第三大潮差 but the sea around it has the third-largest tidal range

我们在伦迪岛经营潜水机或浮潜机 We run dive charter or snorkel charters to the island of Lundy,
在布里斯托尔海峡 in the Bristol Channel.
2003年 伦迪东海岸附近的水域 In 2003, the waters around the east coast of Lundy
受到保护 并被宣布成为英国第一个禁捕区 were given protection and declared to be Britain's first No Take Zone.
禁止捕捞或采集任何种类的海洋生物 Fishing or collecting sea life of any kind is prohibited.
20年过去了 这里的野生动物给安德鲁提供了 20 years on, the wildlife here provides Andrew
一种不同的谋生方式 with a different livelihood.
让我一直回到伦迪的原因是你永远不知道 The things that keeps me going back to Lundy is that you never know
你会看到什么 what you're going to see.
海豚 Dolphins, porpoises,
小须鲸 领航鲸 minke whales, pilot whales.
我们最近吃了金枪鱼 We've had tuna recently.
显然岛上的野生动物在不断变化 And obviously the wildlife on the island changes continually,
这取决于季节 depending on what season it is.
当你到达岛上时 你会发现鸟类的多样性 As you get to the island, you get more diverse with the birdlife
从三月到七月都有海鹦 you've got puffins there from March through to July,
还有马恩岛的海鸥飞到岸边 and then you've got Manx shearwaters coming in to shore,
你可以看到所有的鸬鹚 you've got all the cormorants.
所以它一直在变化 So, it always changes all the way through.
好了吗？是的 很好 很好 OK? Yep. Good, good.
五 四 三 二 Five, four, three, two
与海豹和其他海洋生物畅游海洋真是太神奇了 Sharing the sea with seals and other wildlife is just amazing.
一切都是它们说了算 Everything is on their terms.
当它们意识到你不是威胁时 When they realise you're not a threat
你一点也不紧张 你很安静 and you're not nervous, and you're quiet and still,
它们会来玩 they'll come and play.
保护珊瑚礁不受拖网和捕鱼的影响 Sheltered reefs, when protected from trawling and fishing,
成为珍稀物种的家园 become the home of rare and special species.
所有的潜水员都在评论水下的海洋生物 All the divers comment on how abundant and colourful
是多么丰富多彩 the underwater sea life is.
尤其是它们都没有受到破坏 And especially that none of it's damaged
我们在岛上的保护区发现了粉红海扇 We've got pink sea fans around the island on the protected sites,
你不能把锚放进去 you can't put anchors and shots in.
有些已经有100多年的历史了 Some of those are over 100 years old,
它们看起来很棒 因为它们没有受到任何干扰 and they just look amazing because they're not disturbed at all.
安德鲁的儿子本 是当地的渔民 Andrew's son, Ben, is a local fisherman
与科学家一起在禁捕区监测 and works alongside scientists to monitor the wildlife
海洋生物 in the No Take Zone.
龙虾是第102关键物种 Lobsters are a keystone species 102.
对生态系统的健康起着至关重要的作用 playing a vital role in the health of an ecosystem.
雌性 Female.
值得注意的是 它们在禁捕区的数量翻了两番 Remarkably, their population has quadrupled in the No Take Zone
它们比以往任何时候都要大 and they're growing bigger than ever before.
一只成年的雌性在一生中可以产下多达一百万个卵 A mature female can produce as many as a million eggs in her lifetime.
一旦孵出 幼苗就会散开 And once hatched, her larvae will disperse,
扩充周围海域的种类 restocking the surrounding seas.
本和当地渔民在保护区边缘找到的龙虾 Ben and the local fishing community have found their lobster catch
数量显著有所增加 on the edge of the zone has significantly increased.
你要记住 海洋保护区 You've got to remember that the marine-protected area
最初是由所有渔民自愿成立的 was put in originally by a voluntary scheme for all the fishermen
来帮助恢复岛上的生态系统 to try and help the ecosystem around the island.
随着时间的推移 发生的变化真的很好 The changes that have occurred over time have been really good,
因为情况有所改善 物种数量上升了 because things have improved, the numbers have gone up.
我对海洋生物和海洋保护充满希望 I feel very hopeful about marine life and marine protection.
伦迪的禁捕区很小 The No Take Zone at Lundy is tiny,
一平方英里多一点 little more than a square mile.
在整个不列颠群岛 And across the whole of the British Isles,
我们只占四个 we have only four of them
不到海洋面积的1% less than 1% of our seas.
虽然有了一些保护措施 Although there's some protection
但在这些区域之外的一些地方 in some areas beyond these zones,
过度捕捞的行为 unsustainable fishing practises
仍然被允许 are still allowed
占95%的水域 in over 95% of our waters.
我们是一个岛国 We are an island nation.
我们的过去和海洋健康的未来 Our past and future is intimately connected
紧密相连 to the health of the ocean.
有了有效的保护 我们可以恢复我们的海洋 With meaningful protection, we can replenish our seas,
让它们茁壮成长 并确保我们世世代代 allowing them to thrive and ensuring that we can rely on them
可以依赖它们 for generations to come.
但光有保护措施是不够的 But protection alone isn't always enough.
我们还需要至少恢复一些我们已经失去的东西 We also need to restore at least some of what we have lost.
这是海草 This is sea grass.
它捕获碳的速度比热带雨林 It captures carbon up to 35 times more quickly
要快35倍 than a tropical rainforest.
这些水下草地是安全的避风港 These underwater meadows are safe havens,
为种类繁多的海洋生物提供庇护所和养育所 providing both shelter and nurseries for a great variety of marine life.
但是海草甸是世界上最受威胁的栖息地之一 But seagrass meadows are one of the world's most threatened habitats.
在英国 我们已经失去了超过90%的海草 In the UK, we've lost more than 90% of them
由于疏浚、污染 through dredging, pollution,
和开发 and development.
郁郁葱葱的河床应该环绕着我们的岛屿 Lush beds should surround our isles,
但只剩下不到32平方英里 but only 32 square miles remain.
在北威尔士的海岸 Here, on the coast of North Wales,
志愿者们正在努力把事情做好 volunteers are trying to put things right.
我们需要的是大量的种子 What we need is lots of seeds,
能让海草重新恢复真的很棒 and so it's really great to get people down.
海草计划正在重建受损的海床 Project Seagrass is regenerating areas of the damaged seabed
这是一项雄心勃勃的计划一部分 part of an ambitious movement to restore at least 15%
在2030年恢复英国至少15%的海草 of the UK's seagrass by 2030.
一队一队的志愿者从这片幸存的海草上采集种子 Teams of snorkelers collect seeds from this surviving meadow
在其他合适的区域种植 to plant in other suitable areas.
这是一项艰苦的工作 It's painstaking work.
但几年后 新的健康海草地 But in just a few years' time, new, healthy meadows
它们带来的好处可能会再次繁荣兴盛 and all the benefits they bring could be thriving once again.
在陆地上 林地是我们最复杂多样的栖息地 On land, woodlands are our most complex and diverse habitat.
它们提供食物和庇护所 They provide food, shelter,
也是数千种物种繁衍生息的地方 and a place to breed for thousands of species.
对我们来说 它们提供了一个我们可以反思和 And for us, they offer a place where we can reflect
与自然联系的地方 and connect with nature.
但今天 不列颠群岛只有13%被林地覆盖 But today, only 13% of the British Isles are covered by woodland
这只是我们曾经拥有的一小部分 a fragment of what we once had,
现在是全欧洲覆盖率最低的国家之一 and amongst the lowest coverage of any country in the whole of Europe.
其中大部分是低质量的单一作物 Much of that is low quality
很少能为野生动物提供避难所 monocultures that offer little sanctuary for wildlife.
相比之下我们古老的林地 In contrast, our ancient woodlands,
花了几百年的时间来发展壮大 which have taken hundreds of years to grow and develop,
是复杂而丰富的社区 are complex and rich communities.
我们现在需要的是有远见的长期举措 What we need now are visionary, long-term initiatives
开始恢复我们失去的一些东西 to begin to restore some of what we have lost.
苏格兰 Scotland.
但不像它应有的那样 But not as it should be.
这些荒坡曾被树木覆盖 These barren slopes were once covered by trees.
加里多尼亚大松林 The Great Caledonian Pine Forest
延伸到大部分高地 stretched across much of the highlands.
数千年来 气候的变化 Over thousands of years, changes in the climate,
伐木和羊、鹿的放牧使它只剩下 logging and grazing by sheep and deer have reduced it
几个孤立的小块区域 to just a few isolated pockets.
今天 只剩下1% Today, just 1% remains.
但一项雄心勃勃的新修复项目旨在改变这种现状 But an ambitious new restoration project aims to change that.
在凯恩戈姆斯国家公园的高处 High within the Cairngorms National Park,
一队志愿者正在种植小柳树 a team of volunteers are planting young willow trees.
它们是用附近收集的插枝特别培育的 They've been specially grown from cuttings collected nearby
用来抵御严酷的山地环境 to withstand the harsh mountain conditions.
虽然不一定都会成功 They won't all make it,
但成千上万的树被种下 许多树将幸存下来 but thousands are planted and many will endure.
每多一棵树都有助于这个偏远的峡谷 Each additional tree helps this remote glen
恢复它古老的辉煌 to regain its ancient splendour.
它们只是英国最大的 They are just one small part
自然修复工程的一小部分 of Britain's largest landscape restoration project.
凯恩戈姆斯合伙企业有一个200年的恢复计划 The Cairngorms Connect partnership has a 200-year plan to restore
修复凯恩戈姆斯国家公园230平方英里的栖息地 habitats across 230 square miles of the Cairngorms National Park.
从松林沼泽到泥炭地 From pine forests, bogs and peatland,
流向湍急的河流到亚北极高原 to fast-flowing rivers and subarctic plateaus,
让我们得以一窥过去 it offers us a glimpse of the past
以及对未来的希望 and a hope for the future.
这里是我们最稀有的野生动物的家园 And it is home to some of our rarest wildlife.
已经记录了5000多种物种 More than 5,000 species have been recorded here.
土地管理者们在这片广阔的相连区域内通力合作 Land managers are working together across this vast connected area
提供大大小小的动物种类 to provide animal species big and small
在健康、有弹性的生态系统中茁壮成长的机会 the chance to thrive in healthy, resilient ecosystems.
恢复如此大规模的地方需要团队合作 Restoring a landscape of this size is a team effort.
罗南·杜根是凯恩戈姆斯荒地团队的一员 Ronan Dugan is part of the team at WildLand Cairngorms,
该团队是合作伙伴之一 one of the partners restoring the landscape.
许多人认为这需要50年或100年的时间 但事实上 Many people thought it would take 50 or 100 years, but in reality,
在苏格兰高地 你只要减少鹿的数量 you can implement change very quickly here in the Highlands
就可以很快实现改变 of Scotland by simply reducing the number of deer.
这是一个相当激进的措施 It is quite a drastic measure,
这也许不是最好的办法 and it's perhaps not the nicest thing to do,
但这就是现实 but that's the reality.
我们没有顶级掠食者 We have no apex predators.
山猫和狼都离开了 The lynx and the wolf have gone.
这里以前应该有鹿 Deer should exist here,
但数量比现在少得多 but in much lower numbers than they do today.
由于没有天敌 它们的数量必须得到控制 With no natural predators, the size of their herds must be controlled
给森林一个喘息机会 by us to give the forest a chance.
随着鹿的减少 种子在土壤中发芽 With fewer deer, seeds lying dormant in the soil
很快生根 take root very quickly,
森林开始自然再生 and the forest starts to regenerate naturally.
我们有橡树 白杨树 还有松树 We've got the oak, the aspen, we've got the pine,
以及白桦 花楸 we've got the birch, rowan
所有这些植物都能自然再生 all of these species are regenerating naturally
并向山下延伸 and moving further out the hill.
这里的团队还种植了500多万棵树 The team here have also planted over five million trees,
造福野生动物和下游区域 benefiting the wildlife and the communities downstream.
所以 你知道 这里有洪水问题 So, you've got, you know, flooding issues,
随着气候的变化 植被的增加 and as the climate changes, you know, the increase in vegetation
在这个林地的集水区 and woodland up in the catchment, in this area,
将会减缓水流的速度 that's going to slow down the rate of flow.
恢复那些吸收碳的泥炭地 Restoring the peatland, that's sequestering carbon.
这将有助于解决未来的气候危机 so that's going to help with the climate crisis in the future.
所以这不仅仅是造福当地人或当地的野生动物 So, it's not just benefiting the local people or the local wildlife,
这对国家也有利 it's benefiting the nation.
创造一个混合的栖息地也可以帮助最濒危的物种 Creating a mix of habitats can also help the species most at risk.
白尾鹞现在是我们最受威胁的猛禽之一 Hen harriers are now one of our most threatened birds of prey
因为非法捕猎 as a result of illegal persecution.
它们需要开阔的草地和高沼地 Hen harriers, they require open grassland and open moorlands
这样它们就可以捕食田鼠和小鸟 so that they can hunt for prey such as field voles and small birds,
它们甚至会抓蜥蜴之类的东西 and they will even take things like lizards, and so on.
所以它们是适应能力很强的物种 So they're, yeah, a very, very adaptable species,
但它们需要开阔的空间来繁殖后代 but they need those wide-open spaces where they can breed successfully.
摄制组现在看到了希望的迹象 The team are now seeing hopeful signs
白尾鹞又在这里成功繁殖了 hen harriers are breeding here once more.
但他们研究的不仅仅是那些魅力十足的掠食者 But it's not just the charismatic predators they study.
他们也调查食物链的另一端 They also investigate the other end of the food chain
去发现更多关于整个生态系统运作 to discover more about how the whole ecosystem functions.
如果你不知道你所拥有的 你就不知道 And you can't tell whether it's working if you don't know
它是否有效 what you've got.
我认为这一切始于热爱和关注 I think it all starts with paying attention.
一些小事情真的很容易错过 It is really easy to miss the small things.
我们更倾向于关注那些令人兴奋的大型物种 We tend to look at the big, exciting species
当我们外出的时候 when we're out and about.
一旦你开始观察一个特定群体的微小细节 As soon as you start to look in tiny scale of one particular group,
突然间 它打开了一个全新的世界 all of a sudden, it opens up entire new worlds
否则你可能永远不会遇到 which otherwise you might never have encountered.
我叫艾莉·迪曼布罗·丹森 My name's Ellie Dimambro-Denson,
我是凯恩戈姆斯互联公司的监控员 and I'm the monitoring officer for Cairngorms Connect.
我工作的很大一部分是穿过凯恩戈姆斯斯连接区 A big part of my job is going out across the Cairngorms Connect area
并对所有不同的物种进行调查和监测 and doing surveys and monitoring to look at all of the different species
通过互动 并了解它们会如何回应 and interactions, and understanding how they might be responding
以及这个项目中的生态工作 to the ecological work that's happening within the project.
艾莉在各种天气下调查野生动物 以便更好地了解它们 Ellie surveys wildlife in all weathers to understand better
较小的物种能告诉我们的关于大环境的信息 what the smaller species can tell us about the bigger picture.
打开帐篷有一种神奇的感觉 There's a sense of magic in opening up the tent,
你永远不知道早上会发生什么 and you never quite know what to anticipate in the morning.
充满了兴奋和希望 There's a lot of excitement and hope.
哦 有不少 Oh, there's quite a few.
蛾类和无脊椎动物通常是很好的指示物种 Moths, and invertebrates generally, are really good indicator species
显示整个生态系统的健康状况 for showing the health of the system as a whole.
我喜欢各种各样的飞蛾 I love the diversity of moths.
你会看到一系列不同的物种 不同的生命周期 You get such an array of different species, of different life cycles.
而且通常飞蛾会有这样一个特定的复杂的生命周期 And often moths will have such a specific, intricate life cycle,
它们非常依赖一种特殊的植物 where they will very much rely on one particular food plant
在特定的时间 at a particular time.
这个团队种植了 The team plant the kind of trees
飞蛾和其他昆虫喜欢的树 which moths and other insects favour,
从而促进凯恩戈姆斯山脉的生物多样性 and so boost the Cairngorms' biodiversity.
昆虫种类繁多 对许多不同的生态来说 Insects are incredibly diverse, and they're so fundamental
它们是如此的基础 to so many of the different systems.
它们是传粉者 帮助分解东西 They are pollinators, they help to break things down,
它们也是许多不同种类的蝙蝠或鸟类 they're a really important food source to a number
非常重要的食物来源 of different species of bats or birds.
如果没有昆虫 我们就不会拥有 Without insects, we wouldn't have a lot of the really
维持地球生命所需的基本系统 fundamental systems that we need to sustain life on Earth.
没有自然 Without nature
我们将无法作为一个物种生存 we wouldn't be able to survive as a species.
这种伙伴关系的规模和雄心在我们荒凉的地方 The scale and ambition of this partnership is sorely needed
是非常迫切需要的 in our wilder places.
但是对于我们大多数生活在城市地区的人来说 But for most of us who live in urban areas,
可能看起来很遥远 it might seem rather remote.
真正拯救我们的荒野岛屿 To truly save our wild isles,
我们还需要把大自然带回我们生活的地方 we also need to bring nature back to where we live
这就是这个鼓舞人心的转变背后的理念 and that is the idea behind this inspiring transformation.
我都不知道有这个地方 I didn't even know this place was here.
这简直是超现实的 It was almost surreal.
所以 你不会认为这个地方很棒 So, like, you wouldn't think this place is slap bang
在东伦敦的中心 in the middle of East London.
非常神奇 It's very magical.
这是一个小绿洲 It's a little oasis.
它就像一个隐藏的天堂 It's like a sort of hidden paradise.
它非常绿 而且色彩鲜艳 It's very green and it's colourful.
还有所有的鸟 And all the birds
就像在和它们的朋友一起玩一样 just, like, having fun with their friends, just like me.
位于伦敦工业东区中心的科迪码头 Cody Dock, in the heart of London's industrial East End,
曾一度肮脏不堪 污染严重 was once filthy and polluted
但社区的成员们重新夺回了这个被遗忘的角落 but members of the community reclaimed this forgotten corner,
为了野生动物和他们自己的利益 restoring it for the benefit of both wildlife and themselves.
对于附近的学校来说 它既是教室又是避难所 For nearby schools, it's become both a classroom and a sanctuary.
我们一边沿着河边走 一边在计算 We've been walking along the riverside, and we've been tallying
有多少污染和废物 how much pollution and waste varies.
谁能告诉我这条河叫什么? Can anyone tell me what this river's called?
哦 你先举手 继续 丽河吗? Oh, you put your hand up first, go on. The Lea?
对 丽河 太棒了 The River Lea, awesome!
本和他的同事们一直在这里努力协调工作 Ben and his colleagues have been coordinating efforts here.
我们这里有很多孩子 他们住在 A lot of the kids that we get here, you know, they live in
缺乏自然环境的地区 really nature-deprived areas,
这个空间是他们接触大自然的纽带 and this space is a link for them to access nature.
这个空间本身给了他们一个机会去了解 The space itself gives them an opportunity to learn about
他们能在自然中找到什么 并给了他们一个 what they can find in nature and gives them a place to take
参与保护自然的地方 a stake in the conservation of nature here.
所以 这真的很重要 即使在纽汉我们也在关注 So, it's really important that, even in Newham, we're looking at
这些昆虫 我们试图追踪它们的生存状况 these insects and we're trying to track how well they're doing,
这样我们就能照顾它们了是吗? so that we can look after them, yeah?
抓蜜蜂的感觉真好 因为我从没想过 It was really nice catching bees, like, cos I never really thought
我可以捉蜜蜂 因为我总是会逃避它们 I could catch bees, cos I always run away from them,
因为在这里我感觉很自然 cos that's where I feel normal.
我有机会喜欢它们 看看它们美丽的颜色 I got a chance to, like, see them and see their beautiful colours.
真漂亮 它们有几条腿 Beautiful how many legs they have.
以前我从来不知道蜜蜂长这样 Cos I never really knew bees look like that.
因为我以为所有的蜜蜂看起来都一样 Originally I thought, like, all bees just look the same,
但现在我意识到真正抓住它们并仔细看 but now I realise that, actually catching them and looking up,
它们是如何形成不同的图案等等 how they've got, like, different patterns and so on.
我曾经以为它们所做的一切都是在伤害我们 I used to think that all they done was hurt us.
但是现在我知道它们的意义了 But now I know the meaning of them.
它们是真实的 它们是有生命的 They're real things, they're living things.
它们不仅仅是昆虫 They're not just insects.
它们和我们一样呼吸 They breathe like us.
哇 啊 Whoa! Ah!
6000名志愿者为科迪码头的工作做出了贡献 6,000 volunteers have contributed to the work at Cody Dock,
总共记录了超过300种不同的物种 and together have recorded over 300 different species.
我一来到这里就想“是的 这是正确的决定” As soon as I came here I was like, "Yes, this is the right decision".
你学到了很多技能 You learn so many skills.
有很多来自不同的地方 不同的人 There are so many different people that come here to volunteer
来这里做志愿者 from so many different places.
这里收集的有价值的信息被输入到 And valuable information gathered here is fed into
国家公民科学项目中 national citizen science projects.
我们沿着码头测试水质 看看有没有问题 We test the water along the dock to see if there's any problems,
我们观察水样并确认 and we look at the samples of water and determine
有哪些物种生活在那里 what species are living there.
曾经是不列颠群岛污染最严重的河流之一 Once one of the most polluted rivers in the British Isles,
如今有了复苏的迹象 it's now showing signs of recovery.
我们发现了几种不同类型的鱼 We found a couple of different types of fish fly
比目鱼 不同种类的蜉蝣幼虫 so flounder, different types of mayfly larvae,
还有豆娘 damsel fly, as well.
不久前这个地方还远离大自然 Not so long ago, this place had turned away from nature
但是 有了长远的眼光和自愿的义工 but, with a long-term vision and willing volunteers,
大自然甚至回到了这个最城市化的地方 nature has returned even to this most urban of places.
在城市里 有时会感觉很封闭 In the city, sometimes it can feel quite closed off.
所以 来这里与大自然在一起 可以释放 So, coming here, like, just being with nature can free up
你的思想 your mind a little bit.
压力很容易在一个人身上积累起来 Stress can build up so easily on someone, and it really
它会影响你的心理健康 dictates your mental health.
我想你应该可以来科迪码头这样的地方放松一下 I think you should be able to come to a place like Cody Dock to relax
坐下来 深呼吸 and sit down, and just breathe.
从伦敦市中心到凯恩戈姆斯山脉最偏远的山峰 From the heart of London to the remotest peaks of the Cairngorms,
在我们的岛屿上有很多充满激情的人 there are passionate people right across our isles
通过与大自然合作创造出更美好的生活 making a better livelihood by working with nature,
而不是破坏它 rather than against it.
人们可能会认为只有那些奋战在前线的人 It may be tempting to think of those on the front line as the only ones
才能改变世界 who can make a difference.
然而事实上 我们每个人 The truth is, however, that every one of us,
无论我们住在哪里 no matter where we live,
都能够在恢复我们的自然中发挥作用 can and must play a part in restoring nature to our isles.
从来没有别的事情像现在这样重要 Never has it been more important to do this,
为了我们自己和我们的野生动物 for ourselves and for our wildlife.
这是我们的家 This is our home,
这一刻 and this is the moment.
我们有足够的时间和足够的自然资源 We have just enough time and just enough nature left
为了我们的孩子 也为子孙后代 to save our wild isles for our children
拯救我们的荒岛 and for future generations.
