I have a big impact on the planet
0
1000
3000
Am avut un impact mare asupra planetei,
00:16
to travel here by plane.
1
4000
3000
venind pana aici cu avionul.
00:19
I emitted, in the atmosphere, nine tons of CO2;
2
7000
7000
Am emis in atmosfera noua tone de dioxid de carbon.
00:26
that is the weight of two elephants.
3
14000
3000
Aceasta este greutatea a doi elefanti.
00:29
I came here to speak about ecology,
4
17000
3000
Am venit aici sa vorbesc despre ecologie.
00:32
and I emitted as much CO2
5
20000
3000
Si am emis atat dioxid de carbon
00:35
as a Frenchman in one year.
6
23000
3000
cat emite un francez intr-un an.
00:38
So what do I have to do?
7
26000
2000
Asa ca ce trebuie sa fac?
00:40
I have to kill a Frenchman when I come back at home?
8
28000
2000
Trebuie sa omor un francez cand ma intorc acasa.
00:42
(Laughter)
9
30000
2000
(Rasete)
00:44
I have to do my carbon offset in another way,
10
32000
3000
Trebuie sa compensez emisiile mele de carbon in alt mod,
00:47
like I do every time.
11
35000
2000
cum fac de fiecare data.
00:49
(Laughter)
12
37000
3000
(Rasete)
00:52
In fact my work is to show
13
40000
5000
De fapt, munca mea este sa arat
00:57
our impact on our planet.
14
45000
4000
impactul nostru asupra planetei noastre.
01:01
I'm going to show you some examples
15
49000
2000
Va voi arata cateva exemple
01:03
of the last pictures I've done
16
51000
2000
dintre ultimele fotografii pe care le-am facut
01:05
in the last year.
17
53000
4000
in ultimul an.
01:09
Alberta sand oil, a lot of pollution.
18
57000
5000
Alberta, sisturi bituminoase, multa poluare.
01:14
You know the problem;
19
62000
2000
Cunoasteti problema,
01:16
we don't want to believe what we know.
20
64000
6000
nu vrem sa credem ceea ce stim deja.
01:22
In Alberta people work nonstop,
21
70000
3000
In Alberta oamenii lucreaza fara oprire,
01:25
24 hours by seven
22
73000
3000
24 de ore din 24, 7 zile din 7,
01:28
to extract as much oil
23
76000
2000
pentru a extrage cat mai mult petrol
01:30
as they can.
24
78000
2000
posibil.
01:32
We know about the end of oil.
25
80000
3000
Stim ca resursele de petrol se vor termina.
01:35
Oil sand is not a long-term solution.
26
83000
4000
Sisturile bituminoase nu sunt o solutie pe termen lung.
01:39
But we use three times more oil
27
87000
4000
Dar folosim de trei ori mai mult petrol
01:43
than we find every year.
28
91000
2000
decat gasim in fiecare an.
01:45
We don't want to believe what we know.
29
93000
2000
Nu vrem sa credem ceea ce stim deja.
01:47

100 percent of the coral
32
101000
3000
100% dintre corali
01:56
may be wiped out before 2050
33
104000
3000
pot sa dispara inainte de 2050
01:59
because of global warming.
34
107000
2000
din cauza incalzirii globale.
02:01
And you know how coral are very sensitive to temperature,
35
109000
4000
Si stiti cum coralii sunt foarte sensibili la temperatura
02:05
and are very important for the biodiversity of the sea.
36
113000
6000
si foarte importanti pentru biodiversitatea marilor.
02:11
North Pole. I've done this picture last summer.
37
119000
4000
Polul Nord. Am facut aceasta fotografie vara trecuta.
02:15
It was impossible to do this picture 15 years ago.
38
123000
4000
Era imposibil sa faci aceasta fotografie acum 15 ani.
02:19
Now there is a new way open between Atlantic and Pacific.
39
127000
6000
Acum exista o noua cale deschisa intre Atlantic si Pacific.
02:25
The thickness of the Arctic
40
133000
4000
Grosimea Arcticii
02:29
decreased more than 40 percent
41
137000
3000
s-a micsorat cu 40%
02:32
since 1960.
42
140000
5000
fata de 1960.
02:37
There is a new face of Kilimanjaro without ice.
43
145000
4000
Kilimanjaro are acum o noua fata, fara gheta.
02:41
Sad picture.
44
149000
2000
Trista imagine.
02:43
It lost 80 percent of its ice.
45
151000
3000
A pierdut 80% din gheta.
02:46
According to scientists,
46
154000
2000
Conform oamenilor de stiinta,
02:48
in 100 years
47
156000
3000
in 100 de ani
02:51
all the mountain glacier will be gone.
48
159000
3000
intregul ghetar montan va disparea.
02:54
Glaciers are very important for the life on earth.
49
162000
4000
Ghetarii sunt foarte importanti pentru viata pe Pamant.
02:58
Like Al Gore told you,
50
166000
2000
Precum v-a spus si Al Gore,
03:00
two billion people live on the water
51
168000
2000
doua miliarde de oameni traiesc din apa
03:02
from the glacier of Himalaya.
52

03:07
One fifth of human kind
54
175000
5000
O cincime dintre oameni
03:12
depend on fish to live.
55
180000
3000
depinde de pesti pentru a trai.
03:15
Today now 70 percent
56
183000
4000
Astazi, acum, 70%
03:19
of the fish stock are over-exploited.
57
187000
3000
dintre zonele de pescuit sunt supra-exploatate.
03:22
According to FAO,
58
190000
4000
Potrivit FAO,
03:26
if we don't change our system of fishing
59
194000
3000
daca nu ne schimbam sistemul de pescuit,
03:29
the main sea resources will be gone in 2050.
60
197000
4000
principalele resurse marine vor fi nimicite pana in 2015.
03:33
We don't want to believe what we know.
61
201000
4000
Nu vrem sa credem ceea ce stim deja.
03:37
The beautiful picture, by [unclear] in Africa.
62
205000
5000
O fotografie frumoasa, dar este o groapa de gunoi din Africa.
03:42
One human of six
63
210000
2000
Un om din sase
03:44
have not enough to eat in the world.
64
212000
3000
nu are destula mancare, la nivel global.
03:47
One billion people have not enough to eat.
65
215000
3000
Un miliard de oameni nu au destula mancare.
03:50
In Africa, corn is one of the main foods in many places.
66
218000
6000
In Africa, porumbul este una dintre principale alimente in multe locuri.
03:56
Here in America,
67
224000
2000
Aici in America,
03:58
90 percent of the corn cultivated
68
226000
4000
90% din porumbul cultivat
04:02
is used to feed animals or to do oil.
69
230000
5000
este utilizat la hranirea animalelor sau pentru obtinerea petrolului.
04:07
Palm tree plantation in Borneo.
70

Plantatie de palmieri din Borneo.
04:11
Every year we lose 50 thousand square miles in deforestation.
71
239000
10000
In fiecare an pierdem 50.000 mile patrate (130.000 km patrati) prin defrisari.
04:21
Refugee camp in Darfur.
72
249000
3000
Tabara de refugiati din Darfur.
04:24
Today we have 20 million refugees in the world.
73
252000
4000
Astazi avem 20 de milioane de refugiati la nivel global.
04:28
According to the U.N.,
74
256000
2000
Conform U.N.,
04:30
we speak about 250 million refugees
75
258000
3000
vor fi 250 de milioane de refugiati
04:33
in 2050.
76
261000
6000
in 2050.
04:39
I always show my pictures in the street.
77
267000
3000
Intotdeauna, expozitiile mele de fotografie se tin in strada.
04:42
We have done already 100 exhibitions in the cities.
78
270000
3000
Am avut deja 100 de expozitii in orase.
04:45
But how to understand the world
79
273000
4000
Dar cum sa intelegem lumea
04:49
without the voice of people?
80
277000
3000
fara vocea oamenilor?
04:52
Landscape was not enough.
81
280000
3000
Peisajele n-au fost de ajuns.
04:55
It was obvious to me to do another work.
82
283000
3000
Era evident pentru mine ca trebuie sa fac si altceva.
04:58
I launched a project named Six Billion Others.
83
286000
5000
Am lansat un proiect numit "Alti 6 miliarde".
05:03
I sent around the world six cameramen
84
291000
3000
Am trimis 6 cameramani in jurul lumii,
05:06
asking the same question,
85
294000
3000
sa puna aceeasi intrebare,
05:09
the same crucial question,
86
297000
2000
aceeasi intrebare decisiva,
05:11
about life.
87
299000
2000
despre viata.
05:13
We have done five thousand interviews.
88
301000
3000
Am realizat cinci mii de interviuri.
05:16
I'm going to show you this.
89
304000
2000
Va voi arata ceva.
05:24
Man: The most beautiful thing that has happened to me in life?
90
312000
3000
Video: Iubirea? Iubirea este buna daca o poti avea.
05:27
It's when my dad told me, "Here, I give you this girl as your fiance."
91
315000
6000
Am ras copios azi.
05:34
Woman: Love? Love is nice if you can have it.
92
322000
4000
In cuvantul "viata", ai viata.
05:38
Second Man: Romeo and Juliet, Sassi and Panno, Dodi and Diana, Heer and Ranjha,
93
326000
3000
Cine sunt eu? Nu este asta cea mai mare intrebare?
05:41
this is love! Third Man: My greatest fear is ...
94
329000
3000
Daca ar fi sa ma intorc in Irak
05:44
Woman: You're asking me a hard question.
95
332000
2000
si sa vorbesc cu oamenii,
05:46
Fourth Man: I live happily because what else should I do?
96
334000
3000
ar trebui sa ingenunchez si sa le sarut picioarele.
05:49
Fifth Man: The first thing I remember ... (Sixth Man: That's how I learned, by my mother,)
97
337000
4000
Asa cum acea femeie a incercat sa-mi sarute mie picioarele
05:53
Fifth Man: ... from my childhood, (Sixth Man: that you should respect humans.)
98
341000
3000
in timp ce noi ii luam fiii.
05:56
Fifth Man: we were having fun, biking. (Sixth Man: I will never forget those words.)
99
344000
3000
Ma simt rusinat.
05:59
Seventh Man: We invented stories, we flew around the world, while remaining in our attic.
100
347000
6000
Si ma simt umilit
06:05
Eighth Man: I had a big laugh today.
101
353000
2000
de puterea lor.
06:07
Ninth Man: You see, family is ... it's awful.
102
355000
5000
Si voi simti pentru totdeauna nevoia
06:12
10th Man: In the word life, you have the life.
103
360000
2000
de a aduce despagubiri in Irak.
06:14
11th Man: Who am I? Isn't that the biggest question?
104
362000
4000
Dupa sapte ani de stat intr-un carucior cu rotile,
06:20
12th Man: If I was to go back to Iraq
105
368000
2000
am facut mai mult in viata fiind imobilizat intr-un scaun
06:22
and speak to the people,
106
370000
2000
decat in afara lui.
06:24
I'd have to bow down and kiss their feet.
107
372000
2000
Fac in continuare surf. Navighez in intreaga lume. Fac scufundari.
06:26
Just as that woman tried to kiss my feet
108
374000
3000
Dupa ce multi oameni au spus ca nu pot face asta.
06:29
when we were taking her sons.
109
377000
4000
Si cred ca asta vine din conexiunea cu natura,
06:33
I feel ashamed.
110
381000
3000
conexiunea cu energia vietii.
06:36
And I feel humbled
111
384000
2000
Pentru ca suntem toti infirmi intr-o anumita masura pe aceasta planeta.
06:38
by their strength.
112
386000
2000
Spiritual, mental sau fizic.
06:40
And I will forever feel a need
113
388000
3000
Eu am primit partea cea usoara.
06:43
to make reparations to Iraq.
114
391000
5000
(Aplauze)
06:50
Second Woman: Dad, Mom, I grew up.
115
398000
4000
YAB: Puteti vizita si site-ul.
06:54
You shouldn't worry about me. Dad doesn't need to go to work.
116
402000
5000
De asemenea, puteti si sa raspundeti la intrebari.
06:59
My family ... What can I say?
117
407000
4000
40 de intrebari cruciale.
07:03
At the moment, my family is very poor,
118
411000
3000
Acum va voi vorbi despre filmul meu.
07:06
my life here in Shenzhen is just about showing myself that I can earn more
119
414000
8000
In ultimii trei ani,
07:14
and to let my parents stay and have something to live on.
120
422000
4000
am filmat Pamantul pentru acest film.
07:18
I don't want them to spend their whole lives in poverty.
121
426000
6000
Titlul filmului este "Home" ("Acasa").
07:24
If someday I can achieve something, I would like to say thank you daddy and mommy.
122
432000
10000
"Casa".
07:34
Thank you.
123
442000
3000
Este despre starea planetei.
07:37
Thank you for having fed me and raised me,
124
445000
3000
Este o poveste fantastica a vietii pe Pamant.
07:40
and for making my life of today. Thank you.
125
448000
5000
Sunt foarte mandru sa va arat reclama.
07:46
13th Man: After seven years now of being in a wheelchair,
126
454000
3000
Video: Acest Pamant are patru miliarde si jumatate de ani vechime.
07:49
I've done more in life being in a chair
127
457000
3000
Aceste plante, mai multe sute de milioane de ani.
07:52
than out of a chair.
128
460000
2000
Si noi, oamenii, suntem bipezi
07:54
I still surf. I sail the world. I freedive.
129
462000
4000
de doar 200 de mii de ani.
07:58
After many people said I couldn't do that.
130
466000
5000
Am reusit sa ne adaptam.
08:03
And I think that comes from connecting with nature,
131
471000
3000
Si am cucerit intreaga planeta.
08:06
connecting with the energy of life,
132
474000
3000
De generatii, ne crestem copiii,
08:09
because we're all disabled in some way on the planet --
133
477000
2000
nu diferit de milioane de alte specii care traiesc pe langa noi.
08:11
spiritually, mentally or physically.
134
479000
4000
In ultimii 30 de ani,
08:15
I got the easy part.
135
483000
2000
Am urmarit cu atentie Pamantul si pe locuitorii sai
08:20
14th Man: Let's say that you and me like each other.
136
488000
4000
de sus, din cer.
08:24
You come from elsewhere.
137
492000
2000
Viata noastra este legata de bunastarea planetei noastre.
08:26
You don't know me. I don't know you.
138
494000
5000
Depindem de apa,
08:31
We talk without lying.
139
499000
2000
de paduri,
08:33
If I do like you, I give you one cow and many other things
140
501000
5000
de deserturi,
08:38
and we become friends.
141
506000
3000
de oceane.
08:41
How can we make it all by ourselves?
142
509000
6000
Pescuitul,
09:02
(Applause)
143
530000
8000
cresterea de animale,
09:10
YAB: You can also go to the website,
144
538000
2000
agricultura
09:12
answer -- respond to the questions also.
145
540000
3000
sunt inca ocupatiile cele mai importante ale oamenilor.
09:15
Forty crucial questions.
146
543000
2000
Si ceea ce ne leaga
09:17
Now I am going to speak to you about my movie.
147
545000
3000
este mult mai insemnat decat ceea ce ne desparte.
09:20
For the last three years,
148
548000
2000
Cu totii impartasim aceeasi necesitate fata de darurile Pamantului.
09:22
I was shooting the earth for the movie.
149
550000
4000
Aceeasi dorinta de a ne inalta deasupra noastra
09:26
The name of the movie is "Home" --

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Yann Arthus-Bertrand - PhotographerWith photography, Yann Arthus-Bertrand has captured the beauty of the Earth. Through video and film, his latest projects bind together ecology and humanism. For him, it's all about living together.
Why you should listen
Yann Arthus-Bertrand is perhaps the best known aerial photographer on the planet. He has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide of his seminal photo essay Earth From Above, a decade-spanning attempt to photograph all the vistas of the planet from the sky, whether by helicopter, hot air balloon, or anything else that flies.
Arthus-Bertrand seeks to uncover the story behind the landscape, not just create a pretty picture. Indeed, his subjects are not always photogenic -- his prints show poverty and strife as well as green tranquility; and everywhere in his work is the encroaching hand of humanity and its enterprise. He keeps close track of the coordinates of his locations, so other photographers may track their progress over time.
His newest project takes a different view -- focusing more closely on the people who live on this planet. Called 6 Billion Others, the project was a centerpiece of Pangea Day 2008.
With Luc Besson, he is working on the feature-length documentary Boomerang, to be shot in 60 countries.
