作家及環境保護論者凱瑟琳 · 威金森說，如果真想要處理氣候變遷，我們得要實現性別平等。威金森曾經協助搜括了人類的智慧，提出解決方案來減少熱滯留、大氣中造成氣候變遷的氣體排放：包括明顯的解決方案，如可再生能源和永續飲食，以及不明顯的解決方案，如教育和賦權給女性。在這場充滿資訊且大膽的演說中，她分享了為女人及女孩爭取平權能夠協助處理氣候變遷的三種重要方法。威金森說：排放減量要仰賴興起。

就是每天都要抱持著破碎的心。
02:53
It's a grief that I rarely speak,

That's what the term "smallholder" means.

若能解決這些差異，

87
321702

That means 20 to 30 percent more food

我們順著這個脈絡來談氣候。
05:53
We humans need land to grow food.

我們人類需要土地來種植食物。
05:56
Unfortunately, forests are often

07:29
For a variety of reasons,
119
437433
1585
基於許多理由，
07:31
when we have more years of education,
120
439042
2837
當我們受教育的年限越長，
07:33
we typically choose to marry later
121
441903
2608
我們通常會選擇較晚結婚，
07:36
and to have fewer children.
122
444535
1675
生的孩子數亦較少。
07:38
So our families end up being smaller.
123

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Katharine Wilkinson - Writer, environmentalistKatharine Wilkinson is transforming how we see and relate to the earth. As a writer and messenger, she brings humanity and heart to the challenge of climate change and invites us to be awake, aware and active participants in the community of life.
Why you should listen
As Katharine Wilkinson writes: "At age 16, through an ineffable alchemy of living and learning in the woods, I fell in love with this world and dedicated myself to being part of earth's healing. That commitment threads through my journey since, from research and teaching to strategy and advocacy at the intersections of environment, social science, religion, narrative and discourse, movement building, and gender equity.
"Along the way, I have written two books. The first, Between God & Green: How Evangelicals Are Cultivating a Middle Ground on Climate Change, grew out of my doctoral research at the University of Oxford, where I was a Rhodes Scholar. The second was a New York Times bestseller: Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming. That book brings to life the pioneering, collaborative work of Project Drawdown, the nonprofit where I now lead communication and engagement.
"Climate change is humanity’s great challenge. It demands ambitious, swift, exponential action, across society. But many solutions are already in hand, and our collective wisdom is deep and wide. My work aims to help others envision what’s possible for this earth, our home, and persevere in making it real.
"Today, I live not in the woods but in Atlanta. I continue to find sustenance in rivers and mountains, dogs and horses, and a community of wise, wild, kindred spirits."
