为什么值得读
- 提出保留半个地球生态以拯救物种的激进构想
- 深刻反思人类过度承载对栖息地的工业化侵蚀
- 强调保留完整原生态对人类自身延续的重要性
Half-Earth 提出了一个拯救我们岌岌可危的生物圈的切实可行计划：将地球表面的一半留给大自然。Edward O. Wilson 在他迄今为止最激昂的著作中表示，为了遏制包括我们人类自身在内的物种大灭绝，我们必须迅速采取行动保护地球的生物多样性。Half-Earth 认为，我们所面临的局势过于庞大，无法零敲碎打地解决，因此提出了一个与问题规模相当的解决方案：将整整一半的地球表面奉献给大自然。如果我们想要开展如此宏大的事业，首先必须理解

……最终是整个物种。我们身边到处都在不断证实，这正是我们正在走向的方向。我们现在有先见之明认识到了这一点，但遗憾的是没有去纠正它的动力。读读爱德华·威尔逊（Edward Wilson）的《半个地球》（Half Earth）吧，看看他主张划出50%的陆地表面作为纯野生自然保护区，以保护生物多样性，并最终拯救我们自己的论点。我赞同这里的很多评论，很多既定的……
…ultimately the species. There is continued proof all around us that this is the direction we're heading. We have the foresight to recognize this now, but sadly not the motivation to correct it. Read 'Half Earth' by Edward Wilson to see his arguments for setting aside 50% of the surface land as pure wild nature, to preserve biodiveristy and, ultimately, us. I agree with many comments here that many established…
这些在大规模下都行不通。问题在于我们已经超过了环境承载能力。我们需要控制人口。我赞成 E.O. 威尔逊的“半个地球”方案：划出半个地球作为栖息地，人类只居住半个陆地，并且不去打扰海洋。
None of this works at scale. The problem is that we are past carrying capacity. We need to control population. I am in favour of E.O. Wilson’s Half Earth solution where we set aside half the planet for habitat and inhabit only half of the land and leave the oceans alone.
……低成本地为数十亿人提供食物。但所有农业和食品生产都该被称为工业，因为它是对自然、栖息地和生态系统的抹杀。我非常赞成已故的伟大学者 E.O. 威尔逊提出的“半个地球”提案，我认为为了拯救我们的星球，应当认真考虑它。
…food for billions cheaply. But all ag and food production should be termed industrial as it is the erasure of nature and habitat and eco systems. I am very much in favour of the late great E.O.Wilson’s Half Earth proposal and I think it should be considered in earnest to save our planet.
……事实……一切都靠化石燃料运转。就连食物也不过是转化成卡路里的化石燃料。哪怕人口只有今天的一半，也依然超过了地球的承载能力。我是 E.O. 威尔逊“半个地球”倡议的坚定支持者，即必须把半个地球归还给自然进行再野化，栖息地必须得到恢复。这并不是说生育必须受到惩罚。我们需要人类来防止我们的物种灭……
…fact..everything runs on fossil fuels. Even food is fossil fuel turned into calories. Population at half of today’s level is still above carrying a capacity of earth. I am a big proponent of E.O.Wilson’s Half Earth where half the planet must be returned to nature ti be rewilded and habitat must be restored. This isn’t to say that procreation must be penalized. We need human beings to keeP our species from going…
……尤其是当我们让婴幼儿在其中长大时，未受破坏的自然作为人类（字面意义上的！）立足之本，其重要性将呈指数级增长。这就是为什么像 E. O. 威尔逊的“半个地球”倡议（https://www.half-earthproject.org/ ）如此重要的原因。我们在整个宇宙中只有一个生物圈，我们当然应该努力保持它的完好无损和正常运转！毕竟我们……
…especially as we allow our infants and children to grow up in it, untouched nature will become exponentially more important as (literal!) grounding for humanity. That's why something like E. O. Wilson's Half Earth proposal is so important ( https://www.half-earthproject.org/ ) We only have one biosphere in the entire universe, of course we should try to preserve it intact and in working order! After all we have…
……却对我们汽车的燃料来源、建筑的供暖和制冷、以及我们的商业和生活运转方式不做丝毫改变。[..] 让我们的星球再野化是我们唯一的希望。我是 E.O. 威尔逊“半个地球”倡议的大力支持者，该倡议提议将所有陆地面积的一半划为野生栖息地。如果我们无法在剩下的一半土地上生存，那就意味着我们的生存超出了地球的承载能力。为什么？因为我们是超级顶级……
…without changing a single thing about how we fuel our cars, heat and cool our buildings, and run our commerce and lives.[..] Rewilding our planet is our only hope. I am a big supporter of E.O.Wilson’s Half Earth proposal which sets aside half of all land mass to habitat. If we cannot live in the remaining half , it means we are living beyond the carrying capacity of the planet. Why? Because we are a super apex…
