1.As a culture, we tell ourselves lots of stories about the future, and where we might move forward from this point.
在人类文明中，有很多关于未来的 故事， 也许正是这些故事激励我们前行。
2.Some of those stories are that somebody is just going to sort everything out for us.

5.Like all stories, it has a beginning.
与所有故事一样，它也有一个开头。
6.My work, for a long time, has been involved in education, in teaching people practical skills for sustainability, teaching people how to take responsibility
在很长一段时间，我一直潜心于教育事业， 教大家 可持续性实用技能， 比如
7.for growing some of their own food, how to build buildings using local materials, how to generate their own energy, and so on.
在自家种菜， 利用本地的材料建造房子， 挖掘本地的能量源等等，这些都是为了帮助人们更好的承担责任。
8.I lived in Ireland, built the first straw-bale houses in Ireland, and some cob buildings and all this kind of thing.
我生活在爱尔兰，在那儿我建造了第一个稻草屋， 和一些圆形建筑以及类似的。
9.But all my work for many years was focused around the idea that sustainability means basically looking at the globalized economic growth model,
很多年来我的工作都集中在 一个想法–可持续性， 它意味着：着眼于 全球经济增长模型，
10.and moderating what comes in at one end, and moderating the outputs at the other end.
既监控着自身就有的东西， 也监控着所产出排出的东西，
11.And then I came into contact with a way of looking at things which actually changed that profoundly.
然后我就开始接触并以长远的目光观察 在实际中变化巨大的这一切。
12.And in order to introduce you to that, I’ve got something here that I’m going to unveil, which is one of the great marvels of the modern age.
为了介绍清楚， 在这里我打算揭开 一个当代伟大奇迹的发现。
13.And it’s something so astounding and so astonishing that I think maybe as I remove this cloth a suitable gasp of amazement might be appropriate.
它是如此惊天动地， 我想我还是先揭开它的面纱， 并好好喘口气，然后再告诉大家比较合适。
14.If you could help me with that it would be fantastic.
如果你们能帮我一把，那就完美了。
15.(Laughter) This is a liter of oil.
（笑声） 这儿有一升石油。
16.This bottle of oil, distilled over a hundred million years of geological time, ancient sunlight, contains the energy equivalent of about five weeks
这瓶油 提炼取自上亿年前的地质， 经过远古的阳光照射， 它饱含的能量相当于5周的
17.hard human manual labor — equivalent to about 35 strong people coming round and working for you.
艰苦的体力劳动， 也相当于35个壮劳力 为你服务。
18.We can turn it into a dazzling array of materials, medicine, modern clothing, laptops, a whole range of different things.
我们可以用石油再加工成琳琅满目的新材料： 药物，现代纺织料， 笔记本电脑，还有其他不同的材料。
19.It gives us an energy return that’s unimaginable, historically.
石油给予我们的历史发展中所需的无法想象的能量循环。
20.We’ve based the design of our settlements, our business models, our transport plans, even the idea of economic growth, some would argue,
我们赖以生存的社区设计， 经济学模型，旅游计划， 甚至经济增长的观点，可能有些人会怀疑，
21.on the assumption that we will have this in perpetuity.
假设我们将会永久持续使用石油。
22.Yet, when we take a step back, and look over the span of history, at what we might call the petroleum interval, it’s a short period in history
如果我们退一步看， 整个人类历史， 我们所谓的石油时代， 仅仅是历史的一小段，
23.where we’ve discovered this extraordinary material, and then based a whole way of life around it.
从我们发现这个特别的材料， 到完全依赖石油。
24.But as we straddle the top of this energy mountain, at this stage, we move from a time where our economic success, our sense of individual prowess and well-being
但现在当我们处在能源的顶峰， 过去，我们的经济成功， 个人能力和福利
25.is directly linked to how much of this we consume, to a time when actually our degree of oil dependency is our degree of vulnerability.
直接取决于我们消耗的石油的多少。 到现在我们对石油的依赖 正是我们的弱点。
26.And it’s increasingly clear that we aren’t going to be able to rely on the fact that we’re going to have this at our disposal forever.
越来越清晰的表明：我们 永远基于石油的事实 是站不住脚的。
27.For every four barrels of oil that we consume we only discover one.
我们每消耗4桶石油， 却只能发现1桶。
28.And that gap continues to widen.
这个差距越来越大。
29.There is also the fact that the amount of energy that we get back from the oil that we discover is falling.
事实是我们从石油中得到的能源 正在减少。
30.In the 1930s we got 100 units of energy back for every one that we put in to extract it.
在1930年代，我们每个人可以从提炼石油中 得到100单位的能源。

31.Completely unprecedented, historically.
这是空前的，历史上最多的，
32.Already that’s fallen to about 11.
现在，能源利用值降低为11。
33.And that’s why, now, the new breakthroughs, the new frontiers in terms of oil extraction are scrambling about in Alberta, or at the bottom of the oceans.
就是为什么现在， 石油萃取的新突破技术，新边疆的 争夺如此激烈，不管是在Alberta地区， 还是在海底。
34.There are 98 oil producing nations in the world.
世界上有98个石油生产国，
35.But of those, 65 have already passed their peak.
但，其中65个已经超过了开采的峰值。
36.The moment when the world on average passes this peak, people wonder when that’s going to happen.
世界平均开采早晚都会超过这个峰值， 人们只是想知道什么时候发生。
37.And there is an emerging case that maybe that was what happened last July when the oil prices were so high.
一个紧急例子是 去年7月份发生的 油价高峰。
38.But are we to assume that the same brilliance and creativity and adaptability that got us up to the top of that energy mountain in the first place
但人类的智慧， 创造力、适应力 使我们第一次到达了能源的顶峰，
39.is somehow mysteriously going to evaporate when we have to design a creative way back down the other side?
当我们不得不在能源低谷探索时， 这种智慧、创造力和适应力却莫名其妙地突然神秘蒸发了？
40.No. But the thinking that we have to come up with has to be based on a realistic assessment of where we are.
不是的。而是伴随这个想法的 基础是基于一个现实的假设， 我们已经达到了开采巅峰。
41.There is also the issue of climate change, is the other thing that underpins this transition approach.
面对气候变化时， 也同样支持了这种转变方法。
42.But the thing that I notice, as I talk to climate scientists, is the increasingly terrified look they have in their eyes, as the data that’s coming in,
当我和气候学家讨论时，我注意到 他们眼里与日俱增的恐惧， 伴随着最近的更新数据，
43.which is far ahead of what the IPCC are talking about.
要比IPCC（联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会）讨论中的数据更有说服力，
44.So the IPCC said that we might see significant break up of the arctic ice in 2100, in their worst case scenario.
IPCC的结论是： 我们可以预见2100年 在最坏的情况下，北极冰川严重断裂。
45.Actually, if current trends continue, it could all be gone in five or 10 years’ time.
事实上，如果目前的趋势继续恶化， 它将在5年或者10年内发生。
46.If just three percent of the carbon locked up in the arctic permafrost is released as the world warms, it would offset all the savings that we need to make,
如果北极永冻土中包含二氧化碳的3%， 在全球变暖中释放， 它将抵消我们所有为减少二氧化碳所做的努力，
47.in carbon, over the next 40 years to avoid runaway climate change.
在未来的40年间防范难以捉摸的气候变化。
48.We have no choice other than deep and urgent decarbonization.
除了我们深入实施紧急的二氧化碳减排，我们没有其他选择。
49.But I’m always very interested to think about what might the stories be that the generations further down the slope from us are going to tell about us.
但我一直很感兴趣地思考 故事可能是这样的： 我们以后的几代人 将会告诉我们。
50.”The generation that lived at the top of the mountain, that partied so hard, and so abused its inheritance.”
“后代们生活在山顶， 忍受艰难，他们的遗产也很可怜。”
51.And one of the ways I like to do that is to look back at the stories people used to tell before we had cheap oil, before we had fossil fuels,
我喜欢的方法之一是 回首往事时人们通常这么说： 在拥有便宜的汽油和化石燃料之前，
52.and people relied on their own muscle, animal muscle energy, or a little bit of wind, little bit of water energy.
人们依赖于他们的肌肉，动物肌肉中的能量， 或者一些风能，一些水能。
53.We had stories like “The Seven-League Boots”: the giant who had these boots, where, once you put them on with every stride, you could cover seven leagues, or 21 miles,
我们有“七联赛靴”的故事： 一旦巨人穿上这样的靴子， 每迈出一步就可以完成7联赛，或者21英里，
54.a kind of travel completely unimaginable to people without that kind of energy at their disposal.
对于没有这种功能靴子的人们来说， 这是一种完全无法想象的旅程。
55.Stories like The Magic Porridge Pot, where you had a pot where if you knew the magic words, this pot would just make as much food as you liked,
还有神奇魔术锅的故事， 如果你知道魔语，你可以让一个魔术锅 不断地做出你想要的食物，
56.without you having to do any work, provided you could remember the other magic word to stop it making porridge.
当然你也不用动手。 假如你记得其他咒语，就可以停止做燕麦粥。
57.Otherwise you’d flood your entire town with warm porridge.

72.And it’s an idea that I think is very prevalent at these TEDtalks, the idea that we can invent our way out of a profound economic and energy crisis,
我认为，这种观点在TED讨论者中比较普遍， 我们发明一种方法走出严峻的 经济和能源危机，
73.that a move to a knowledge economy can somehow neatly sidestep those energy constraints, the idea that we’ll discover some fabulous new source of energy
一种知识经济运动可以 远离能源束缚。 有观点是我们发现一些极好的新能源，
74.that will mean we can sweep all concerns about energy security to one side, the idea that we can step off neatly onto a completely renewable world.

85.And this is really about looking the challenges of peak oil and climate change square in the face, and responding with a creativity and an adaptability
这是当前关于 石油开采峰值和气候变化的巨大挑战， 以及创造性和适应性和
86.and an imagination that we really need.

100.One of the things that underpins it is this idea of resilience.
支撑上述观点的是可恢复性理论。
101.And I think, in many ways, the idea of resilience is a more useful concept than the idea of sustainability.
我认为，在多方面，这种可恢复性理论 比可持续理论更有用。
102.The idea of resilience comes from the study of ecology.
可恢复性理论源于生态学，
103.And it’s really about how systems, settlements, withstand shock from the outside.
是关于系统， 安居置业，如何抵挡外部冲击。
104.When they encounter shock from the outside that they don’t just unravel, and fall to pieces.
当他们遇到外部冲击时， 他们不只是分解，或者崩溃。

在任何时候，当超市只有2，3天的食物储备时， 通常可持续理论关注于 冰箱的能效，
107.and the packaging that the lettuces are wrapped up in.
和包裹生菜的包装。
108.Looking through the lens of resilience, we really question how we’ve let ourselves get into a situation that’s so vulnerable.
从可恢复性理论角度看， 我们从根本上质疑我们竟依赖于这种 如此脆弱的超市消费模式。
109.Resilience runs much deeper: it’s about building modularity into what we do, building surgebreakers into how we organize the basic things that support us.
可恢复性理论可以更广泛地运作： 它是基于我们所要转变的模块化建设， 和我们怎样组织生产自给自足必需品的转变社区建立。
110.This is a photograph of the Bristol and District Market Gardeners Association, in 1897.
这是布里斯托尔市Bristol和湖区District的照片， 1897年，农业菜园市场协会Market Gardeners Association成立。

当时，布里斯托尔市Bristol 就在这个附近， 周围是商业市场菜园， 提供给城市所需的大量食物，
112.that was consumed in the town, and created a lot of employment for people, as well.

113.There was a degree of resilience, if you like, at that time which we can now only look back on with envy.
这就是可恢复性的一个例子，希望你们喜欢， 我们现在只能带着羡慕的眼光回首那时。
114.So how does this transition idea work?

然后他们开始组建工作组，分别负责不同的方面， 因此基于此，形成了很多转变项目，
122.which then the transition project itself starts to support and enable.
然后转变项目本身 开始运行和完善。
123.So it started out with some work I was involved in in Ireland, where I was teaching, and has since spread.
在爱尔兰我开始了相关的工作， 爱尔兰是我教学的地方，也是工作开展的地方。
124.There are now over 200 formal transition projects.

129.Well, I think it’s really important to make the point that actually you know, this isn’t something which is going to do everything on its own.
因此，我认为重申这一点非常重要， 实际上大家知道，转变不是一个自身就能完成所有工作。
130.We need international legislation from Copenhagen and so on.
我们需要哥本哈根大会的国际立法等等。
131.We need national responses. We need local government responses.
我们需要得到国内的响应，本地政府的响应。
132.But all of those things are going to be much easier if we have communities that are vibrant and coming up with ideas and leading from the front, making unelectable policies electable,
但所有事情都会变得非常简单， 如果我们有活跃的社区以及最新的想法交流， 然后领导转变响应，使得相关政策通过候选立法，
133.over the next 5 to 10 years.
在接下来的5到10年。
134.Some of the things that emerge from it are local food projects, like community-supported agriculture schemes, urban food production, creating local food directories, and so on.
自然而然的就有一些当地的食物项目， 例如社区团体支持的农业计划， 城乡食物计划，当地食物目录等等。
135.A lot of places now are starting to set up their own energy companies, community-owned energy companies, where the community can invest money into itself,
目前很多地方都开始建立自己的能源工厂， 社区自建能源工厂， 由社区独立投资，
136.to start putting in place the kind of renewable energy infrastructure that we need.
开始建立 可再生能源基础设施，这正是我们需要的。
137.A lot of places are working with their local schools.
在许多地方，学校也参与进来。
138.Newent in the Forest of Dean: big polytunnel they built for the school; the kids are learning how to grow food.
位于迪恩森林国家公园附近的Newent市：人们在学校建起大型保温棚， 孩子们学习如何种植食物。
139.Promoting recycling, things like garden-share, that matches up people who don’t have a garden who would like to grow food, with people who have gardens they aren’t using anymore.
提倡再循环利用，例如菜园共享， 使得没有菜园的人们 可以在被人闲置的菜园地方，种植食物。
140.Planting productive trees throughout urban spaces.
在广阔的城乡种植经济树木。
141.And also starting to play around with the idea of alternative currencies.
同时开始推广 可替换的流通货币的想法。
142.This is Lewes in Sussex, who have recently launched the Lewes Pound, a currency that you can only spend within the town, as a way of starting to cycle money within the local economy.
这是在苏塞克斯Sussex的刘易斯市Lewes 最近投放上市的刘易斯英镑， 它只能在当地流通， 成为了当地循环经济的开始。
143.You take it anywhere else, it’s not worth anything.
而你在其他地方用这种货币，它就一文不值了。
144.But actually within the town you start to create these economic cycles much more effectively.
但实际上这种循环经济模式在当地 非常有效。
145.Another thing that they do, is what we call an energy descent plan.
他们做的另一件事，我们称之为节约能源计划，
146.Which is basically to develop a plan B for the town.
是为城镇而开发的另一个B计划。
147.Most of our local authorities, when they sit down to plan for the next five, 10, 15, 20 years of a community still start by assuming that there will be more energy,
但我们大部分当地政府开始着手 未来5年，10年，15年到20年计划时， 还都理所当然地认为会有更多石油能源，
148.more cars, more housing, more jobs, more growth, and so on.
更多汽车，更多房屋， 更多工作，更多增长等等。
149.What does it look like if that’s not the case? And how can we embrace that and actually come up with something that was actually more likely
如果情况不是那样，会怎样呢？我们又该如何接受 现实中想到的事情真的很有可能
150.to sustain everybody?
来养活大家？
151.As a friend of mine says, “Life is a series of things you’re not quite ready for.”

152.And that’s certainly been my experience with transition from three years ago, it just being an idea, this has become something that has virally swept around the world.
那也正是我亲身经历的转变， 在3年前，它仅仅是一个想法， 这转变已经快速风靡世界。
153.We’re getting a lot of interest from government. Ed Miliband, the energy minister of this country, was invited to come our recent conference
这也吸引了政府议员，这个国家（英国）能源部长埃德米利班德Ed Miliband的兴趣， 我们邀请他参加我们最近的会议
154.as a keynote listener.
作为一个演讲听众。
155.Which he did — (Laughter) (Applause) — and has since become a great advocate of the whole idea.

这个国家目前有两个当地政府 声明它们要转变为不依赖石油的当地政府， 莱斯特郡Leicestershiere 和萨默塞特郡Somerset。在斯特劳德市Stroud
157.the transition group there, in effect, wrote the local government’s food plan.
转变组真的为当地政府起草了食物计划。
158.And the head of the council said, “If we didn’t have Transition Stroud, we would have to invent all of that community infrastructure for the first time.”

159.As we see the spread of it, we see national hubs emerging.
正如我们看到的转变响应的蔓延，国家的转变提上议程。
160.In Scotland, the Scottish government’s climate change fund has funded Transition Scotland as a national organization supporting the spread of this.
在苏格兰Scotland,Scottish苏格兰政府气候变化基金 已投资转变苏格兰Transition Scotland 作为国家资助项目发展。
161.And we see it all over the place as well now.
正如大家所见，目前所有地方都开展了。
162.But the key to transition is thinking not that we have to change everything now, but that things are already inevitably changing, and what we need to do is to work creatively with that,
不过，转变的关键是我们现在没有改变所有， 但很多已经不可避免的改变了， 我们所做的就是创造性的开展工作，
163.based on asking the right questions.
提出正确的问题。
164.I think I’d like to just return at the end to the idea of stories.
我想我应该返回到 这个想法故事的结尾。
165.Because I think stories are vital here.
因为我认为这些故事比较生动和重要。
166.And actually the stories that we tell ourselves, we have a huge dearth of stories about how to move forward creatively from here.
我们自己谈论着实际中的故事， 除这里分享的，我们还缺乏大量故事来指导我们创新的转变。
167.And one of the key things that transition does is to pull those stories out of what people are doing.
关键的一点是 人们把他们做的这种转变创新的故事用来分享。
168.Stories about the community that’s produced its own 21 pound note, for example, the school that’s turned its car park into a food garden,
例如，社区可以自行生产 21英镑纸币， 把学校的汽车停车场转变为一个食物菜园地，
169.the community that’s founded its own energy company.
建立自己能源工厂的社区等等的故事。
170.And for me, one of the great stories recently was the Obamas digging up the south lawn of the White House to create a vegetable garden. Because the last time that was done,
对我来说，最近一个精彩的故事 是奥巴马夫妇在白宫南草坪 开辟蔬菜园地。因为上次这么做还要
171.when Eleanor Roosevelt did it, it lead to the creation of 20 million vegetable gardens across the United States.
提起埃莉诺罗斯福Eleanor Roosevelt， 它引领了全美2千万蔬菜菜园的兴建。
