I was here four years ago and I remember at the time that the talks weren't put online.And I think they were given to TEDsters in a box, a boxed set of DVDs, which they put on their shelves, where they are now.And actually, Chris called me a week after I'd given my talk and said,......"We're going to start putting them online.Can we put yours online?"And I said, "Sure."And four years later, as he said, it has been seen by four, well, it has been downloaded four million times.So I suppose you could multiply that by 20 or something to get the number of people who've seen it.And, as Chris says, there is a hunger for videos of me.Don't you feel it?
わたしは4年前この舞台に立ったが、当時はわたし達の講演はオンラインにアップされなかったと記憶している。そしてそれらはDVDボックスにされてTED参加者に渡され、彼らの本棚に納められ、いまもそこにあると思う。実は、その講演から1週間後クリスがわたしに電話してきて言ったんだ、・・・”講演をオンラインにアップしようと思うんだ。君のもアップしてもいいかい？”わたしは”もちろん”と答えた。そして4年後、そのビデオは4人に見られると彼が言ったように、いや、そのビデオは400万回もダウンロードされたんだ。だから、きみ達にはそのビデオをみた人の数を算出するために20か何かを掛けてみてほしい。そして、クリスが言うように、そこにはわたしのビデオへの切望があるんだ。感じないかい？
So, this whole event has been an elaborate buildup to me doing another one for you, so here it is.Al Gore spoke at the TED conference I spoke at four years ago and talked about the climate crisis,......and I referenced that at the end of my last talk.So I want to pick up from there because I only had 18 minutes, frankly.So, as I was saying,......you see, he's right.I mean, there is a major climate crisis, obviously, and I think if people don't believe it, they should get out more.But I believe there's a second climate crisis, which is as severe, which has the same origins, and that we have to deal with with the same urgency.And I mean by this, and you may say, by the way, "Look, I'm good."
だから、このイベントをわたしは入念に準備してきた、そして今がある。アル・ゴアはTED会議でわたしが4年前気候危機について話したことを述べた、・・・・・そしてわたしは前回の自分の講演の最後の部分について話した。18分しか時間がないので今回はそこから話を続けたい。 そういうわけで、わたしが言っていたように、・・・・ほら、彼は正しかっただろう。つまり、明らかに大きな気候危機があって、もし人々がそれを信じていないなら尚更逃げたほうがいいと思うんだ。でもわたしは同じくらい厳しく、同じ起源を持ち、そして同じ緊迫性をもってわたし達が対処しないといけない2回目の天候危機があると予想している。そして、ついでながら、これにより、きみたちは言うだろう、”見ろよ、すごいだろう”。
I have one climate crisis, I don't really need a second one.But this is a crisis of, not natural resources, though I believe that's true, but a crisis of human resources.I believe fundamentally, as many speakers have said during the past few days, that we make very poor use of our talents.Very many people go through their whole lives having no real sense of what their talents may be or if they have any to speak of.I meet all kinds of people who don't think they're really good at anything.Actually, I kind of divide the world into two groups now.Jeremy Bentham, the great utilitarian philosopher, once spiked this argument.
You know he said, "There are two types of people in this world: those who divide the world into two types and those who do not."Well, I do.I meet all kinds of people who don't enjoy what they do.They simply go through their lives getting on with it.They get no great pleasure from what they do.They endure it rather than enjoy it and wait for the weekend.But I also meet people who love what they do and couldn't imagine doing anything else.So if you said to them, "Don't do this anymore," they'd wonder what you were talking about.Because it isn't what they do, it's who they are.They say, "But this is me.It would be foolish for me to abandon this, because it speaks to my most authentic self."
And it's not true of enough people.In fact, on the contrary, I think it's still true of a minority of people.And I think there are many possible explanations for it.And high among them is education, because education, in a way, dislocates very many people from their natural talents.And human resources are like natural resources, they're often buried deep.You have to go looking for them.They're not just lying around on the surface.You have to create the circumstances where they show themselves.And you might imagine education would be the way that happens, but too often it's not.Every education system in the world is being reformed at the moment and it's not enough.
Reform is no use anymore, because that's simply improving a broken model.What we need, and the word has been used many times during the course of the past few days, is not evolution, but a revolution in education.This has to be transformed into something else.
