Eliminate animal agriculture by 2050.
到2050年撤消动物农业。
The Vegan Society has called for a reduction in livestock by 20% by 2025 and continued phased reduction until there is no animal agriculture by 2050. Supporting farmers to diversify and transition towards plant-based agriculture, including rewilding of “unproductive” land with native bush. The funds to pay for all this could be taken from revenue currently not collected from multinational corporations operating in this country.
新西兰纯素协会(VSANZ)呼吁,牲畜数量到2025年减少20%;动物农业分阶段持续减产,在2050年之前完全消失。支持农民多元化经营并过渡到植物性农业,包括利用本土灌木重新野化“非生产性”土地。资助改革的资金可以来自在本国内经营的跨国公司尚未缴纳的赋税。
The government is asking for submissions on its Emissions Reduction Plan by the end of today (24th November). Nothing short of a complete paradigm shift is required to dig humanity out of the climate crisis. That means acting in accordance with the science on climate change mitigation. The good news is that the solutions are readily available, there is no need to wait for technology to save the planet, the solutions need to be put into practice now.
新西兰政府为制定(温室气体)减排计划征求公众意见的活动到今天结束(11月24日)。要想将人类从气候危机中解救出来,完全的“范式转换”(移风易俗)是必不可少的。这意味着按照减缓气候变化的科学来采取行动。好消息是已经有了现成的解决方案,并不需要等待什么技术去拯救地球,现在要做的是实施那些解决方案。
“With only 8 years left in which to take meaningful effective action to mitigate climate change, we have to set the bar as high as possible, not as low as possible,” said Vegan Society spokesperson Claire Insley. “We must all act together, as individuals, as businesses, as councils, as governments. We all want to live on this planet, so we all need to make some very big changes to counteract the last 30 years of total inaction! The one thing individuals can do is change what they eat, and that’s really easy to do, finding another planet to live on has so far not been successful.”
“只剩下8年的时间采纳实用有效的措施减缓气候变化,我们要把目标设得尽可能高,而不是尽可能低,”新西兰纯素协会发言人克莱尔·英斯利(Claire Insley)说道。“我们所有人必须共同行动,包括个人、企业、议会和政府。我们都希望在这座星球上生活,因此大家需要做出一些非常大的改变,才能弥补过去30年的毫不作为!个人能做的一件事就是改变自己的饮食方式,这真的很容易做得到,而找到另一个适宜居住的星球迄今还没有成功。”
