and the language语言 would appear出现 to be food餐饮.
33
102015

而且这种语言似乎就是食物
02:01
So, three and a half years年份 ago, a few少数 of us
34
105418
2019
三年半之前 我们中一些人
02:03
satSAT around a kitchen厨房 table and
35
107437
1619
坐在厨房餐桌旁边
02:04
we just invented发明 the whole整个 thing. (Laughter笑声)
36
109056
3368
就这样创造了整套玩意 (笑声)
02:08
(Applause掌声)
37
112424
3237
(鼓掌)
02:11
We came来了 up with a really simple简单 game游戏 plan计划 that we put to a public上市 meeting会议.
38
115661
2591
我们想到的一个相当简单易行的计划就公诸于众了
02:14
We did not consult请教. We did not write a report报告.
39
118252
2313
我们没有咨询专家 也没有写报告
02:16
Enough足够 of all that. (Laughter笑声)
40
120565
2575
受够那些了 (笑声)
02:19
And we said to that public上市 meeting会议 in Todmorden托德莫登,
41
123140
3018
我们在托德莫登的一个公共会议上讲述了我们的计划
02:22
look, let's imagine想像 that our town
42
126158
2946
接下来 我们想象下我们的城镇
02:25
is focused重点 around three plates:
43
129104
1756
主要集中在三个板块
02:26
a community社区 plate盘子, the way we live生活 our everyday每天 lives生活;
44
130860
2224
社区 我们每天生存的地方
02:28
a learning学习 plate盘子, what we teach our kids孩子 in school学校
45
133084
3048
学习板块 我们教我们的孩子
02:32
and what new skills技能 we share分享 amongst其中包括 ourselves我们自己;
46
136132
2761
和我们自我学习技能的地方
02:34
and business商业, what we do with the pound in our pocket口袋
47
138893
3119
和商业区 我们用我们口袋里的英镑
02:37
and which哪一个 businesses企业 we choose选择 to support支持.
48
142012
1821
来投资支持我们选择的生意的区域
02:39
Now, let's imagine想像 those plates agitated激动
49
143833
2807
现在 我们一起想象下这些区域
02:42
with community社区 actions行动 around food餐饮.
50
146640
2640
都被围绕食物的社区行动关联起来
02:45
If we start开始 one of those community社区 plates spinning纺织,
51
149280
2241
如果我们让其中一个板块行动起来
02:47
that's really great, that really starts启动 to empower授权 people,
52
151521
3384
这是相当好的 能够真正地鼓动人们
02:50
but if we can then spin that community社区 plate盘子
53
154905
2087
但如果我们能让一个社区板块带动
02:52
with the learning学习 plate盘子, and then spin it with the business商业 plate盘子,
54
156992
2896
学习板块 接而再带动商业板块
02:55
we've我们已经 got a real真实 show显示 there, we've我们已经 got some action行动 theater剧院.
55
159888
3736
我们已经开始了这场秀 我已经着手行动
02:59
We're starting开始 to build建立 resilience弹性 ourselves我们自己.
56
163624
3345
我们正开始自我适应
03:02
We're starting开始 to reinvent重塑 community社区 ourselves我们自己,
57
166969
3391
我们正开始重塑社区
03:06
and we've我们已经 doneDONE it all without a flipping翻转 strategy战略 document文件.
58
170360
3467
而且我们做的这些不依赖于任何一纸战略空文
03:09
(Applause掌声)
59
173827
5311
(鼓掌)
03:15
And here's这里的 the thing as well.
60
179138
2792
同时我们也在这样开展
03:17
We've我们已经 not asked anybody's任何人的 permission允许 to do this,
61
181930
2416
我们没有要求任何一个人的应允来做这件事
03:20
we're just doing it. (Laughter笑声)
62
184346
2293
我们就是开始做了 (笑声)
03:22
And we are certainly当然 not waiting等候 for that check
63
186639
1761
我们在开始之前当然也没有等着
03:24
to drop下降 through通过 the letterbox信箱 before we start开始,
64
188400
2738
信箱里的支票
03:27
and most importantly重要的 of all, we are not daunted难倒
65
191138
2332
最重要的是 我们也没有被
03:29
by the sophisticated复杂的 arguments参数 that say,
66
193470
1852
他们提及的敏感争论而吓倒
03:31
"These small actions行动 are meaningless无意义的 in the face面对 of tomorrow's明天的 problems问题,"
67
195322
3896
"他们小小行动在未来要面临问题面前毫无意义"
03:35
because I have seen看到 the power功率 of small actions行动,
68
199218
3668
因为我们见过微小行动力量
03:38
and it is awesome真棒.
69
202886
2071
很了不起
03:40
So, back to the public上市 meeting会议. (Laughter笑声)
70
204957
3113
好吧 回到公众会议 (笑声)
03:43
We put that proposition主张 to the meeting会议, two seconds,
71
208070
2889
我们在会议上抛出了我们的提议 两秒钟后
03:46
and then the room房间 exploded爆炸.
72
210959
1708
会议室爆棚了
03:48
I have never, ever experienced有经验的 anything like that in my life.
73
212667
3888
在我生命中我从来没 从没体验过这样的事
03:52
And it's been the same相同 in every一切 single room房间, in every一切 town
74
216555
3382
而且在每一个城镇的会议室中当我们讲述我们的故事时
03:55
that we've我们已经 ever told our story故事.
75
219937
1555
都是一样的情景
03:57
People are ready准备 and respond响应 to the story故事 of food餐饮.
76
221492
4344
人们已经准备好回应这个关于食物的故事了
04:01
They want positive actions行动 they can engage从事 in,
77
225836
2257
他们在骨子里想要他们参与的时候
04:03
and in their bones骨头, they know it's time
78
228093
2599
有积极的行动 他们知道这是时候
04:06
to take personal个人 responsibility责任
79
230692
1889
承担个人责任
04:08
and invest投资 in more kindness善良 to each other
80
232581
2571
把善意向彼此
04:11
and to the environment环境.
81
235152
2923
和环境中投入
04:13
And since以来 we had that meeting会议 three and a half years年份 ago,
82
238075
3314
自从我们三年半前开展这儿会议以来
04:17
it's been a heck赫克 of a roller滚筒 coaster杯垫.
83
241389
3250
真是过山车式的跳跃
04:20
We started开始 with a seed种子 swap交换, really simple简单 stuff东东,
84
244639
2896
我们以种子交易开始 很简单的东西
04:23
and then we took an area of land土地, a strip跳闸 on the side
85
247535
2249
然后我们采用了一片土地 在主干道的
04:25
of our main主要 road, which哪一个 was a dog toilet厕所, basically基本上,
86
249784
2502
一边 之前基本上是宠物厕所
04:28
and we turned转身 it into a really lovely可爱 herb草本植物 garden花园.
87
252286
3354
然后我们把它变成了一片可爱的植物花园
04:31
We took the corner of the car汽车 park公园 in the station
88
255640
2286
我们用你们刚刚看到的汽车车站停车场边的角落的土地
04:33
that you saw, and we made制作 vegetable蔬菜 beds
89
257926
1735
做成了菜畦
04:35
for everybody每个人 to share分享 and pick from themselves他们自己.
90
259661
3524
让每个人可以分享和采摘植物
04:39
We went to the doctors医生. We've我们已经 just had
91
263185
1309
我们去了诊所 我们刚刚在托德莫登建设了
04:40
a 6-million-pound-million磅 health健康 center中央 built内置 in Todmorden托德莫登,
92
264494
2905
六百万英镑的医疗中心
04:43
and for some reason原因 that I cannot不能 comprehend理解,
93
267399
2688
某种程度上我不能理解
04:45
it has been surrounded包围 by prickly plants植物. (Laughter笑声)
94
270087
3793
已经被有刺的植物包围起来了 (笑声)
04:49
So we went to the doctors医生, said, "Would you mind心神 us taking服用 them up?"
95
273880
3089
我们去医生那时 说介意我们把他们拿起来吗?
04:52
They said, "Absolutely绝对 fine, provided提供 you get planning规划 permission允许
96
276969
2354
他们说: "没问题 假设你们计划许可
04:55
and you do it in Latin拉丁 and you do it in triplicate一式三份,"
97
279323
1922
你们可以在拉丁美洲做 而且把他们翻三倍"
04:57
so we did — (Laughter笑声) — and now there are fruit水果 trees树木
98
281245
2790
于是我们成功了-(笑声)-现在水果树
04:59
and bushes灌木丛 and herbs草药 and vegetables蔬菜
99
284035
3295
灌木丛 草本和蔬菜
05:03
around that doctor's医生 surgery手术.
100
287330
3230
在医生诊所处生长茂盛
05:06
And there's been lots of other examples例子, like the corn玉米
101
290560
2276
有很多很多这样的例子 像玉米
05:08
that was in front面前 of the police警察 station,
102
292836
1856
长在警察局门口
05:10
and the old people's人们 home that we've我们已经 planted种植的 it with food餐饮
103
294692
1817
和老人们的家里 这样我们就能种植
05:12
that they can pick and grow增长.
104
296509
1972
他们生长采摘
05:14
But it isn't just about growing生长,
105
298481
1710
但这并不仅仅只是生长
05:16
because we all are part部分 of this jigsaw拼图.
106
300191
2545
因为我们都是拼图玩具的一部分
05:18
It's about taking服用 those artistic艺术的 people in your community社区
107
302736
2874
这是关于把社区里有艺术美感的人们带动起来
05:21
and doing some fabulous极好 designs设计 in those raised上调 beds
108
305610
2233
在培育的土壤床上做一些极好的设计
05:23
to explain说明 to people what's growing生长 there,
109
307843
2071
来向人们解释什么生长在这里
05:25
because there's so many许多 people that don't really recognize认识
110
309914
2216
因为有相当多的人并没意识到
05:28
a vegetable蔬菜 unless除非 it's in a bit of plastic塑料
111
312130
1888
是蔬菜除非在顶部
05:29
with a bit of an instruction指令 packet on the top最佳. (Laughter笑声)
112
314018
2072
有一小小的指示牌写明了 (笑声)
05:31
So we have some people who designed设计 these things,
113
316090
2896
于是我们有很多人来设计这样的东西
05:34
"If it looks容貌 like this, please don't pick it, but if it looks容貌 like this,
114
318986
2017
“如果是长这样 请勿采摘. 但如果是长这样
05:36
help yourself你自己."
115
321003
1977
请随意"
05:38
This is about sharing分享 and investing投资 in kindness善良.
116
322980
2869
这是关于分享和善意的投资
05:41
And for those people that don't want to do either
117
325849
1857
同时 对那些不愿意做这些
05:43
of those things, maybe they can cook厨师,
118
327706
1999
或那些事的人们 也许他们可以下厨
05:45
so we pick them seasonally季节性 and then we go on the street,
119
329705
2873
所以我们季节性摘菜 然后上街
05:48
or in the pub酒馆, or in the church教会,
120
332578
2233
或进俱乐部 或在教堂
05:50
or wherever哪里 people are living活的 their lives生活.
121
334811
1632
或人们生活的地方
05:52
This is about us going to the people and saying,
122
336443
2542
我们来到大家身边说
05:54
"We are all part部分 of the local本地 food餐饮 jigsaw拼图,
123
338985
2409
"我们是本地食物拼图的组成部分
05:57
we are all part部分 of a solution."
124
341394
2655
我们都是解决方案的一部分"
05:59
And then, because we know we've我们已经 got vegetable蔬菜 tourists游客
125
344049
2216
然后 因为我们知道我们已经有了蔬菜旅客
06:02
and we love them to bits and they're absolutely绝对 fantastic奇妙,
126
346265
2708
我们很乐意他们吃 让他们感觉相当奇妙
06:04
we thought, what could we do to give them an even better experience经验?
127
348973
2576
我们在想 我们能做什么才能给他们更好的体验?
06:07
So we invented发明, without asking, of course课程,
128
351549
2404
于是我们创造了 当然没有征求他们的意见
06:09
the Incredible难以置信 Edible食用 Green绿色 Route路线.
129
353953
2106
绝佳的可食蔬菜路线
06:11
And this is a route路线 of exhibition展览 gardens花园,
130
356059
2725
这是一条花园展览的
06:14
and edible食用 towpaths纤道, and bee-friendly蜜蜂友好 sites网站, and the story故事
131
358784
4711
可食的 没有蜜蜂的 承载传粉故事的路线
06:19
of pollinators授粉, and it's a route路线 that we designed设计
132
363495
2868
是一条我们设计的路线
06:22
that takes people through通过 the whole整个 of our town,
133
366363
2606
带领旅客穿过我们城镇
06:24
past过去 our cafes咖啡馆 and our small shops商店, through通过 our market市场,
134
368969
3219
路过我们的咖啡馆和小商店 穿过我们的商场
06:28
not just to and fro来来往往 from the supermarket超级市场,
135
372188
3413
不仅仅是从商场的来回地
06:31
and we're hoping希望 that, in changing改变 people's人们 footfall客流量
136
375601
2298
我们希望 在改变人们穿行
06:33
around our town, we're also changing改变 their behavior行为.
137
377899
2855
我们城镇脚步的同时 我们也在改变着他们的行为
06:36

我们成立了一个公司 我们正在设计和建设
06:45
an aquaponics鱼菜共生 unit单元 in some land土地 that was spare备用
141
389127
2048
一个在高校后面的空闲土地上的
06:47
at the back of the high school学校, like you do,
142
391175
1907
鱼菜共生单元 像你们看到的
06:48
and now we're going to be growing生长 fish and vegetables蔬菜
143
393082
2193
现在我们准备在一个有蜜蜂的果树林里
06:51
in an orchard果园 with bees蜜蜂,
144
395275
2549
同时培育鱼和蔬菜
06:53
and the kids孩子 are helping帮助 us build建立 that,
145
397824
2258
一些孩子也在帮我们建设
06:55
and the kids孩子 are on the board, and because the community社区
146
400082
2813
孩子也在会议中 因为社区
06:58
was really keen敏锐 on working加工 with the high school学校,
147
402895
1532
真的相当投入和高校的合作
07:00
the high school学校 is now teaching教学 agriculture农业,
148
404427
3368
高校也在教授农业课
07:03
and because it's teaching教学 agriculture农业, we started开始 to think,
149
407795
3116
由于是在教授农业 我们开始思考
07:06
how could we then get those kids孩子 that never had a qualification合格
150
410911
2783
我们如何能让那些在过去的人生中
07:09
before in their lives生活 but are really excited兴奋 about growing生长,
151
413694
2551
从没有过任何资质但对培育十分感兴趣的孩子提供机会
07:12
how can we give them some more experience经验?
152
416245
1704
我们怎么能给他们更多的经验
07:13
So we got some land土地 that was donated捐赠
153
417949
1959
于是我们得到了
07:15
by a local本地 garden花园 center中央.
154
419908
1258
当地园艺中心捐赠的土地
07:17
It was really quite相当 muddy, but in a truly incredible难以置信 way,
155
421166
3334
相当潮湿 但是在一种相当惊人的方式下
07:20
totally完全 voluntary-led自愿为主导, we have turned转身 that
156
424500
2610
完全自愿主导的方式下 我们把它变成了
07:23
into a market市场 garden花园 training训练 center中央,
157
427110
2197
一个市场农艺训练中心
07:25
and that is polytunnels塑料大棚 and raised上调 beds
158
429307
2964
那是聚乙烯制温室和培育的温床
07:28
and all the things you need to get the soil under your fingers手指
159
432271
2704
还有那些你需要用你手指去拨土的工作
07:30
and think maybe there's a job工作 in this for me in the future未来.
160
434975
2321
我还想或许在未来我可以干这么一个工作
07:33
And because we were doing that, some local本地 academics学者 said,
161
437296
2208
由于我们正在做这个 一些当地学者就说
07:35
"You know, we could help design设计
162
439504
1332
"你知道 我们可以为你们设计
07:36
a commercial广告 horticulture园艺 course课程 for you.
163
440836
1772
一个商业园艺学课程
07:38
There's not one that we know of."
164
442608
1395
这不是个我们都知道的东西"
07:39
So they're doing that, and we're going to launch发射 it later后来 this year,
165
444003
2644
于是他们正在着手做 我们准备在今年晚些时候发布
07:42
and it's all an experiment实验, and it's all voluntary自主性.
166
446647
2585
这一切都只是个实验 都是自愿的
07:45
And then there's the third第三 plate盘子,
167
449232
1619
这就是第三个板块
07:46
because if you walk步行 through通过 an edible食用 landscape景观,
168
450851
1818
因为如果你走过一片有东西吃的地方
07:48
and if you're learning学习 new skills技能, and if you start开始 to get
169
452669
2595
如果你正在学项新的技能 如果你开始
07:51
interested有兴趣 in what's growing生长 seasonally季节性,
170
455264
2048
对这种季节性生长的植物有兴趣
07:53
you might威力 just want to spend more of your own拥有 money
171
457312
1912
你可能想要花自己的一部分钱
07:55
in support支持 of local本地 producers生产商,
172
459224
2080
用来支持当地生产者
07:57
not just veg蔬菜, but meat and cheese起司 and beer啤酒
173
461304
1752
不仅仅是蔬菜 而且是肉 奶酪和啤酒
07:58
and whatever随你 else其他 it might威力 be.
174
463056
2079
或者可能是别的什么东西
08:01
But then, we're just a community社区 group, you know.
175
465135
2737
但是说回来 我们只是个社区组织 你们知道的
08:03
We're just all volunteers志愿者. What could we actually其实 do?
176
467872
1958
我们只是志愿者 我们事实上能做什么呢?
08:05
So we did some really simple简单 things.
177
469830
1750
于是我们做了些简单的事情
08:07
We fundraisedfundraised, we got some blackboards黑板,
178
471580
1787
我们募捐 我们得到了些黑板
08:09
we put "Incredible难以置信 Edible食用" on the top最佳,
179
473367
1170
我们把"不可思议的可食用"写在最上面
08:10
we gave it every一切 market市场 trader商人 that was selling销售 locally本地,
180
474537
2176
我们把它发放给每个当地销售的商人
08:12
and they scribbled潦草 on what they were selling销售 in any one week.
181
476713
2927
他们在黑板上写每个礼拜卖出的东西
08:15
Really popular流行. People congregated聚集 around it.
182
479640
2456
相当受欢迎 人们围着黑板聚集到一起
08:17
Sales销售 were up.
183
482096
1648
销量提升了
08:19
And then, we had a chat with the farmers农民, and we said,
184
483744
2996
接着 我们和种植者交流 我们说
08:22
"We're really serious严重 about this,"
185
486740
977
"我们对这件事情很认真"
08:23
but they didn't actually其实 believe us, so we thought,
186
487717
2418
但他们并不怎么相信我们 于是我们想
08:26
okay, what should we do? I know. If we can create创建
187
490135
2625
好吧 我们该做什么? 我知道 如果我们能创造出
08:28
a campaign运动 around one product产品 and show显示 them
188
492760
2574
围绕一个产品的活动 然后向他们展示
08:31
there is local本地 loyalty忠诚 to that product产品,
189
495334
2043
确实对这种产品有很高的忠诚度
08:33
maybe they'll他们会 change更改 their mind心神 and see we're serious严重.
190
497377
2343
也许就能改变他们的看法 让他们明白我们是认真的
08:35
So we launched推出 a campaign运动 -- because it just amuses游乐 me --
191
499720
2991
于是我们举行了一个活动--仅仅是自我娱乐
08:38
called Every一切 Egg Matters事项. (Laughter笑声)

Why you should listen

Pam Warhurst is the Chair of the Board of the Forestry Commission, which advises on and implements forestry policy in Great Britain.

Incredible Edible started small, with the planting of a few community herb gardens in Todmorden, and today has spin-offs in the U.S. and Japan. The community has started projects like Every Egg Matters, which educates people on keeping chickens and encourages them to sell eggs to neighbors, and uses a 'Chicken Map' to connect consumers and farmers. Incredible Edible Todmorden empowers ordinary people to take control of their communities through active civic engagement.
