……美洲曾经拥有比非洲还多的巨型野生动物。鲸鱼一眼望去整天都看不完。伦敦泰晤士河里甚至有过海象。我根据一本神作《昔日与未来的世界》(The Once and Future World)里的收获做了两个视频短评:我的视频:https://youtu.be/ZLAvBiols2Y 和 https://youtu.be/U4NZdciDozI 原书:https://www.amazon.com/Once-Future-World-Nature-Could/dp/030...
…America had more large wildlife than Africa. Whales as far as the eye could see all day long. Walruses in the Thames in London. I did a couple video essays on what I learned from a wonderful book The Once and Future World: My video essays: https://youtu.be/ZLAvBiols2Y and https://youtu.be/U4NZdciDozI The book: https://www.amazon.com/Once-Future-World-Nature-Could/dp/030...

无论生命恢复了多少,跟工业革命前比起来都根本不值一提。JB MacKinnon 写的神作《昔日与未来的世界》彻底刷新了我的认知,原来曾经到处都有多得多的野生动物。比如,泰晤士河里曾经有海象。蒸汽时代之前的船长日志里,还写过船只在航行途中被挡住……
However much life has returned, it's nothing compared to before the Industrial Revolution. The wonderful book The Once and Future World by JB MacKinnon changed my understanding of how much more wildlife there was, everywhere. The Thames, for example, had walruses. Captain's logs of ships before steam wrote of being stopped in the middle…
我推荐 MacKinnon 的《昔日与未来的世界》,里面讲述了在我们人口爆炸并占据整个地球之前的世界。曾经有那么多未被破坏的自然风貌——或者不管怎么形容吧——简直令人震惊。鱼群曾经密集到……
I recommend MacKinnon's The Once and Future World, which talks about the world before our population exploded and overtook the world. It's shocking how much more untouched nature there was, or however I should describe it. Fish were so dense in the…
……在不靠强制手段或立法的情况下降低生育率,带来更大的幸福与繁荣。- Alan Weisman 的《没有我们的世界》(The World Without Us),生动且发人深省地描绘了人类对世界的影响。- J.B. MacKinnon 的《昔日与未来的世界》,展现了曾经的大自然有多丰茂、我们失去了多少,以及我们还会失去多少。- 《增长的极限:三十年更新版》(Limits to Growth, the 30-year Update),虽然出版快20年了,但……
…birthrates without coercion or legislation, yielding greater happiness and prosperity. - The World Without Us, by Alan Weisman, for illustrating our effect on the world colorfully and inspirationally. - The Once and Future World, by J.B. MacKinnon, for illustrating how much more nature there used to be, how much we've lost, and how much more we stand to lose. - Limits to Growth, the 30-year Update, almost 20 years old, but the…
