我想说，我们确实尝试过通过合法手段拍摄这个故事I do want to say that we try to do the story legally.靠Shit.我设想这样做可能导致的各种意外I thought of all the possibilities of what could happen,这令我彻夜难眠and it kept me up at night.里克一开始给我讲述的故事The story that Ric showed me at the beginning只是冰山一角was just the tip of the iceberg.片名：海豚湾日本，太地町就是这了，太地町镇Here it is-- the town of Taiji.这个小地方可有个大秘密The little town with a really big secret.开车刚进入太地町时，感觉很奇怪It's funny driving into Taiji.你好像进到了“阴阳魔界”（六十年代的热播美剧）It's kind of like The Twilight Zone.最诡异的是It's so bizarre如果你开始并不知情because if you didn't know what's going on over here,你会以为这个小镇是个热爱海豚和鲸鱼的地方you would think this is a town that loved dolphins and whales.左边就是臭名昭著的太地町鲸类博物馆On our left here is the infamous Taiji Whale Museum. 我真的，真的恨死那地方了And I really, really hate this place.我们刚到日本的时候When we first got to Japan,里克·欧拜瑞非常沮丧Ric O'Barry was incredibly frustrated.他说“你们得戴上口罩”He said, "Oh, you have to wear a mask.“否则他们就知道我们来了”Otherwise, they'll know that we're here."我就想，行，就这么办吧And I thought, okay, all right.那边是警察There's the police.我得驼点背，变个样子I've got to hunch over and change my shape这样他们会以为我只是个普通的日本老头so they think I'm just some old Japanese guy.我在一旁想，我来这瞎掺和什么？跑了大半个地球，结果却坐上这车I thought, you know, what am I doing? I went halfway across the world to end up in this car,跟个偏执狂困在一起Locked up with this paranoid guy.有人跟踪我们Somebody's behind me.我不知道是谁I don't know who that is.没错，他过来了，过来了Yep. He's coming. He's coming.真的吗？Is he really?嗯，我在这干得太久了Yeah. I've been doing this too long.开始的时候，市长向我敞开了镇门The mayor of this town actually gave me the key to the city. 那会我还挺受欢迎I was welcome then.如今，要是杀了我不犯法，他们一定会的Today they'd kill me if they could.我可没有夸张And I'm not exaggerating.要是这些渔民能逮住我，把我干掉If these fishermen could catch me and kill me,他们真会那么干they would.三年前About three years ago,我朋友吉姆·克拉克和我创办了这个组织my friend Jim Clark and l started this organization-- 海洋保护协会，缩写是OPS The Oceanic Preservation Society, OPS.我们有35年的潜水经历We've been diving for over 35 years,要是每年你都去一次老地方and you could go back to the same dive spot year after year你就能真真切切地看到海洋的退化and literally see the degradation of the oceans就在你眼前发生before your very eyes.路易·皮斯霍斯--海洋保护协会创始人之一每时每刻，都有大量物种濒临灭绝There's major extinctions going on right now in our lifetime. 吉姆想Jim had the idea做点什么，阻止这一切to try to do something about it, to stop this,所以我开始到世界各地拍礁石的纪录片so I began documenting reefs around the world.我去了在圣地亚哥召开的“海洋哺乳动物研讨会”I went to a marine mammal conference down in San Diego.有两千名全球顶尖的研究海洋哺乳动物的科学家出席There was 2,000 of the world's top marine mammal scientists,里克·欧拜瑞本来应该是主讲人and Ric O'Barry was supposed to be the keynote speaker,但就在会议开始前赞助方把他从会议安排上去掉了and at the last minute, the sponsor of the program pulled him from the ticket.我想，天，这倒有点意思I thought, oh God, that's interesting.赞助方是谁？Well, who's the sponsor?他们说，“海洋世界”They said, "Sea World."许多海洋哺乳动物科学家的研究经费A lot of marine mammal scientists get their money都是靠“中央研究所”资助from Hub Research Institute,里克·欧拜瑞--地球岛屿研究所那是“海洋世界”的一个非营利性部门which is the nonprofit arm of Sea World.他们不喜欢我They don't like me.不喜欢我关于动物被囚禁的观点They don't like my message about captivity,于是就把我的名字删掉了and they took me off the list.他们不准我谈太地町的海豚大屠杀They wouldn't let me talk about this dolphin slaughter in Taiji.我问，“海豚大屠杀？那是怎么回事”I said, "Dolphin slaughter? What's-- What's that about?" 他说，“我下周就过去”He says, "Well, I'm going next week.“你想一起来吗？”You want to come?"现在，我们正在接近关键地点Now we're approaching the area that's most important.那里是海豚的噩梦That's a dolphin's worst nightmare right there.成百上千的海豚都死在那儿Hundreds of thousands of dolphins have died there.看到那些警告牌了吗“禁止入内”“此处危险”You'll see the signs-- "Keep Out," "Danger." 这附近的山里都有渔民拿着刀巡视There are fishermen walking around these hills with knives. 这里还是个国家公园This is a national park.那些渔民告诉我The fishermen told me.说，“如果这里的事捅了出去”They said, "lf the world finds out what goes on here,“我们就完了”we'll be shut down."你想象得出来吗？Can you imagine that?他们亲口这么跟我说They actually told us that.我们得深入那里，拍下那里发生的一切We need to get in there and film exactly what happens. 我们需要知道真相We need to know the truth.日本，胜浦，浦岛旅馆等我们回到旅馆When we got back to the hotel--一个大型的温泉旅馆It's a big spa hotel,大家穿着浴袍，人来人往people going by in robes,我看到三个便衣警察在和里克说话and there's these three undercover cops talking to Ric.你来日本…Did you come to Japan...是想反对…against...我们捕捉海豚和鲸鱼吗？catching whale and dolphin?- 没- 来搞鲸鱼和海豚捕杀…- No. - Anti whale fishing and dolphin fishing...- 抗议？- 没- No.- activity? - No.没他说不是No.他们身后In the background,你可以看到一些海豚造型的游船经过窗口you could see these dolphin boats going by in the window,那场景，荒诞极了and it was just-- it was so surreal.我没法…我想大笑I couldn't-- I wanted to laugh,但同时，又想大叫and I wanted to scream at the same time.我希望…I hope...你不要进入禁区you don't enter the place prohibited.没去，没去No. No.好，我懂Right. I know.绝对不能进入You absolutely don't enter.我不去，不去I don't enter. No, no.非常感谢Thank you so much, and--不客气You're welcome.- 再见- 好，再见- See you again. - Okay. Bye-bye.我从没计划着去做什么积极分子I never planned on being an activist.事情就那么接踵而至One thing leads to another,如今，要是有海豚遇上了麻烦and now if there's a dolphin in trouble无论是在世界的哪个角落anywhere in the world,我的手机都会响起来my phone will ring.里克在海豚方面的工作举世闻名Ric is world famous for his work with dolphins.近年我和他第一次打交道The first time I connected with him in recent years哈迪·琼斯创始人就是一起去尼加拉瓜was on a trip down to Nicaragua.那里有两条海豚There were two dolphins困在泳池里，水里满是它们自己的排泄物in a swimming pool filled with their own excrement. 里克不知怎么办到的居然调遣了尼加拉瓜的军队Ric somehow enlisted the military forces of Nicaragua.海豚被运上直升机The dolphins were put on a helicopter,然后飞到海上and then out to sea we go,接着被释放and the dolphins are released.有人想捕捉野生海豚We're going to capture these dolphins out of the wild并且囚禁起来and bring them into captivity.就有人想办法还它们自由There are people who will set them free.今年三月In March of this year,欧拜瑞在佛罗里达被捕三次O'Barry was arrested three times in Florida罪名是擅自解救被囚海豚for trying to free some captive dolphins.地球日那天，他又因同样的罪名On Earth Day, he was arrested for the same thing在比米尼岛被捕on the lsland of Bimini.你被捕过多少次了？How many times have you been arrested?就今年吗？This year?军方实验基地--基韦斯特岛国家野生动物避难所那边游泳的，你擅闯政府授权的科研领域Swimmer, you're within a government-authorized test area.正在妨碍政府计划You are holding up a government project.听明白了吗？Do you understand?我靠God damn it.一条海豚要是放对了地方一年能帮他们捞一百万A dolphin in the right spot can make a million dollars a year.利润很可观There's a lot of money in it.如果你插手If you get in their way--就像我这样and I get in their way--那会非常，非常危险it can be very, very dangerous.简·提普森被谋杀Jane Tipson, she was murdered.她是我同事中第二位遇害的She's the second colleague I've worked with that was murdered. 另一位是珍妮·梅The other one was Jenny May.我们那时试图阻止俄国的海豚买卖We were trying to stop the traffic in Russian dolphins,期间，我们绝食抗议and it involved a hunger strike.第十天的时候，我晕了过去About the tenth day, I passed out,被送进了当地医院and I went to a hospital there,结果珍妮成了目标so Jenny became a target,他们尾随她到海滩and they followed her down the beach用珍妮自己的腰带把她勒死了and strangled her with her own belt.这些海豚是环保划时代的标志These dolphins are symbolic of a new day for the environment. 我们应该给予它们更多尊重而不该光想着如何夺取It's all about respect now, not exploitation.这一切或许都是我的错I feel somewhat responsible因为是《海豚的故事》这个节目because it was the Flipper TV series开创了这个价值数十亿的产业that created this multi-billion-dollar industry.节目激发了人们的渴望渴望和海豚一起游泳，亲吻它们It created this desire to swim with them and kiss them拥抱它们，宠爱它们and hold them and hug them and love them to death,也是这节目导致了海豚被大量捕获and it created all these captures.节目里五条海豚There were five female dolphins轮流饰演弗利普这个角色who collectively played the part of Flipper.它们都是我亲手捕到的I captured the five dolphins myself.所有工作人员齐心协力The entire crew turns to with battle station teamwork.一旦发现海豚When the porpoise is sighted,行动刻不容缓not a moment can be lost.工作人员小心地呵护着这个生灵The men handle this creature with infinite care.她似乎也感觉到，她回家了She seems to sense that she has come home,没有人会伤害她that no harm will come to her now.她安全了She is safe.《海豚的故事》于1964年首播，里克·欧拜瑞成为全球最富盛名的海豚驯养师我一开始训练海豚的时候可没有教科书When I started training dolphins, there was no manual.我拿到剧本I would get the script,上面写着“弗利普游向码头，衔起枪”and it says "Flipper goes over to the dock "and picks up the gun“然后从左向右下潜”and then swims down left to right."我得想尽办法让海豚做出这些动作来I had to actually translate that into action somehow.谢了，弗利普Thanks, Flipper.谢了，弗利普Yeah. Thanks, Flipper.期间，真正触动我的是The thing that really struck me它们其实比我们想象的还要聪明was that they're smarter than we think they are.在《海豚的故事里》片场The house that you see on the Flipper set那个主角一家住的房子where the family lives其实就是我家was actually my house.我在那儿住了整整七年I lived there all year round for seven years.房子前面And right in front of the house就有一个盐水湖there was a lake, salt water lake,码头尽头是弗利普常呆的地方and that's where Flipper was at the end of the dock.每周五晚七点半，《海豚的故事》一开演When Flipper came on television at Friday night at 7:30,我就会把电视机从房子里拿出来I would take my television set from the house跑到码头尽头and go down the end of the dock身后拖着长长的电线with a long extension cord,凯西会来看自己上电视and Cathy would watch herself on television,她还能分辨出她自己和苏西and she could tell the difference between herself and Suzy,苏西是另一条演弗利普的海豚who was another Flipper dolphin that was used.那时候我就知道，它们是有自我意识的I knew then they were self-aware,等你真正认识了这种别样的智能生命and when you become conscious of this nonhuman intelligence,不用多久，你就会明白它们不属于这种囚徒般的生活you realize after a while they don't really belong in captivity.但那时我没采取任何行动But I didn't do anything about it.直到那天，一切结束One day, it all ended.作为台柱子，它们回到了“迈阿密海洋馆”Like the props, they went back to the Miami Seaquarium.你走进这个地方，音乐四起When you just walk into this place and the music is playing,海豚跳跃着，微笑着the dolphin is jumping and smiling,你很难看出会有什么问题it's hard to see the problem.但海豚的微笑，是大自然最高明的伪装But a dolphin's smile is nature's greatest deception.这微笑让你误以为它们一直很快乐It creates the illusion they're always happy.所有海豚馆的中枢都是“鱼屋”The nerve center of any dolphinarium is the fish house.无论你去哪个“鱼屋”And if you go to any one of these fish houses,你都会发现成瓶的氢氧化铝和泰胃美（两种减少胃酸分泌的药物）you'll see bottles of Maalox and Tagamet.因为海豚得了胃溃疡And they're used because dolphins get ulcers,因为它们压力过重because they're all stressed out.你只有看到它们在大海里的样子You have to see them in the wild才能明白，为什么这种囚禁是行不通的to understand why captivity doesn't work.在海里，海豚每天能游40英里（64公里）In the wild, they're traveling 40 miles a day.早上，它们或许还在这里戏水They could be surfing in one area in the morning,过一个小时，它们可能就在40公里之外and the next hour they could be 25 miles away捕食或者嬉戏了feeding or socializing.海豚是听觉动物Dolphins are acoustic creatures.听觉是他们的主要感官That's their primary sense.人类最先进的声纳The best sonar that man has若是与海豚的相比，都是小巫见大巫is a toy compared to the dolphins' sonar.你在水里的时候When you're in the water,海豚能看穿你the dolphins can see right through you.它们能看到你跳动的心脏They can see your heart beating.你的骨骼They can see your bones.你是否怀孕They can see if you're pregnant.光凭声音，它们就能获取大量信息They get a lot of information with their sound.海豚被捕后被放进一个混凝土筑的大池子里The dolphin is captured and put in a concrete tank周围是一圈大声尖叫的观众surrounded by a stadium full of screaming people.“巴尔的摩国家海洋馆”At the National Aquarium in Baltimore,刚开始运行的时候，海豚陆续死去when it first opened, dolphins were dying left and right.他们想尽办法也没让海豚活下来They couldn't keep dolphins alive,最后他们终于搞明白and they finally figured out原来是过滤系统噪声太大it's because the filtration system was making a lot of noise.是那种压力要了海豚的命It's the stress that kills them.所以说，海豚对声音是极为敏感的So they're very sensitive to sound.因为那是他们的首要感官That's their primary sense,而这也成了它们在太地町的致命伤and that's their downfall in Taiji.太地町1，2，3，4，5，6，7…1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7--有12条渔船There's 12 of them.你现在看到的这阵仗This is a classic drive,都是老一套了what you're watching here.有一些迁徙的路径There are migratory routes对海豚来说，数千年来未曾改变that dolphins have been using for thousands of years,渔民只要坐等海豚自投罗网and they just wait till the dolphins come by.渔船把一些长杆放进水里The boats then put these long poles in the water杆尾有凸缘which have a flange on the bottom,他们用锤子敲打杆头and they just bang on these poles with hammers,形成一道声墙，把海豚吓住and they create a wall of sound which frightens the dolphins.成百上千头海豚被驱赶向海岸There were several hundred dolphins being driven ashore.我从没一次见过这么多海豚I'd never seen so many dolphins before,它们都在逃命and they were all running for their lives,逃离那道声墙running from this wall of sound.我想我现在是真的听到那敲打声I think I can actually hear the banging,只是我一直都能听到but I hear it all the time.连做梦都能听到I hear it in my sleep.一旦听过，这声音就再也挥之不去了That sound never goes away once you hear it.等它们到了环湖By the time they get to the lagoon,就彻底慌不择路了他们面临的压力也大到了极点they're totally freaked out, stressed out to the max.渔民把海豚围住，然后回家They seal it, then they go home.次日早晨The next morning,所有的海豚驯养师会到这里来all of these dolphin trainers will be lined up排着队挑选自己看中的海豚带回海豚馆selecting the ones that they want for the dolphinariums.他们主要挑宽吻海豚They're looking for bottlenose dolphin, primarily.他们是在找下一个弗利普They're looking for Flipper,所以他们只挑年幼的雌海豚and so they collect young females,就像我们为《海豚的故事》挑的那些just like we did for the Flipper show.被选中的海豚将被运抵世界各地And they're flown to different parts of the world.太地町是全球海洋公园及“与海豚水下共舞”项目的最大供应商每条海豚最高售价可达十五万美元太地町鲸类博物馆作为中间商，市政府与渔民瓜分利益我要是想，大可以在加勒比海域干同样的勾当I could have my own dolphin facility somewhere in the Caribbean像这帮人一样，一年赚个两三百万and be making 2 or 3 million dollars a year Like these guys, if I wanted to.但我没有这么做But I walked away from that.让我转变的The thing that turned me around是弗利普的死，凯西的死was the death of Flipper, of Cathy.她那时很压抑，我能感觉到She was really depressed. I could feel it.甚至能看得出I could see it.她就在我臂弯里自杀了And she committed suicide in my arms.这个词很重，自杀That's a very strong word, suicide.但你得知道But you have to understand海豚和其他鲸类，它们的呼吸不是自主的dolphins and other whales are not automatic air breathers,不像我们Like we are.它们的每一次呼吸，都是有意识的Every breath they take is a conscious effort.所以，当生命变得不可承受And so they can end their life他们就会结束自己的生命whenever life becomes too unbearable只需不再吸入下一口空气by not taking the next breath.正因为这样，我才用了自杀这个词And it's in that context I use the word suicide.她就是这么做的She did that.她游进我的臂弯She swam into my arms直视着我的双眼and looked me right in the eye吸了一口气…and...took a breath--就再没有吸第二口and didn't take another one.我放开她I just let her go,她就那样腹部朝天，沉到了池底and she sank straight down on her belly to the bottom of the tank.第二天，我就被关进了监狱The next day, I was in the Bimini jail因为我试图释放一条被关在勒纳海洋实验室的海豚for trying to free a dolphin at the Lerner Marine Laboratory.那就是我对凯西之死的反应That's how I reacted to it.我想尽我所能，释放被捕海豚I was going to free every captive dolphin I could.我用了十年时间，创建了这一产业I spent ten years building that industry up.之后的三十五年倾尽全力想将之摧毁And I spent the last 35 years trying to tear it down.刚开始的时候，全球只有三家海豚馆When I started out, there were only three dolphinariums. 如今，这已经发展成了价值数十亿的产业Today it's become a multi-billion-dollar industry.在人们捕获海豚的同时In all of these captures,我们也催发了这世上最耸人听闻的海豚大屠杀we helped create the largest slaughter of dolphins on the planet.在公路上，人人都能看到捕捉海豚的场景Anyone can watch the capture process go on from the road.但里克指给我看But Ric pointed out他们把渔船开进了一个秘密的海湾where they take the boats around to the secret cove没人能看到那里的具体情况没被选上的海豚被带进去that nobody could see where dolphins that weren't selected被屠杀，它们的肉被贩卖are slaughtered and sold for their meat.海豚围困从九月一直持续到次年三月据估计，每年有两万三千条海豚与鼠海豚在日本被宰杀在太地町Here in Taiji,你去“鲸鱼博物馆”的时候能一边看海豚表演you can go to the Whale Museum and watch the dolphin show一边吃海豚肉and eat a dolphin at the same time.他们就赤裸裸地在海豚馆里出售海豚肉和鲸鱼肉They sell dolphin and whale meat right in the dolphinarium.正是捕捉海豚的这一产业让大屠杀得以长年累月地持续下去It's the captivity industry that keeps this slaughter going渔民的这种恶劣行径反而得到了回报by rewarding the fishermen for their bad behavior.每条死海豚只值六百They only get $600 for a dead dolphin,但表演用的活海豚却能卖上十五万but they can get more than $1 50,000 for a live showdolphin.我告诉过里克，我会帮他I told Ric that I'd help him out,我们能纠正这些，改变这些that we'll fix this, we'll change this.但我没告诉他怎么做And I didn't tell him how因为我自己也不知道because I really didn't know how we were going to do it.日本有不少团体…There are lots of groups here in Japan--世界野生动物基金，绿色和平World Wildlife Fund, Greenpeace,国际爱护动物基金International Fund for Animal Welfare.它们每年的盈利都数以百万计They all make hundreds of millions of dollars between them.但面对这一全球最大规模的屠杀This is the largest slaughter of dolphins in the world.他们都上哪儿去了呢？Where are they?有一个组织There is one organization它的唯一宗旨就是保护各种野生鲸类动物whose sole purpose is to protect all cetaceans in the wild.那就是IWC That's the lWC--国际捕鲸委员会年度会议国际捕鲸委员会the lnternational Whaling Commission.但不知为何But for some reason,小型鲸类，比如海豚、鼠海豚却不在被保护之列small cetaceans, dolphins and porpoises, aren't protected.海豚也是鲸类Dolphins are whales.大小并不重要Size doesn't matter.IWC就是一群白痴！The WC will go down in history as a ship of fools.2006年，西印度群岛，圣基茨，IWC会议这里根本就没有民主可言There's no-- There's no democracy here挖地三尺也没有！by any stretch of the imagination.他们这是在胡作非为They do whatever the hell they want to do.里克被IWC永久禁止出席会议欧拜瑞先生，你知道我在这Mr. O'Barry, you know I'm here.所以呢？Yeah?我不得不请您离开旅馆I have to ask you to leave the hotel.你可以呆到早晨，但是…You could have waited till morning, but--先生，我很礼貌地请你关掉摄像机Sir, I asked you very nicely to turn off your camera.小型鲸类之所以不受IWC待见The reason why small cetaceans are not popular with the lWC 迈克·伊立夫--塔斯马尼亚大学南冰洋及南半球海洋研究所是因为暗中操作的捕鲸国is because the whaling nations that set this thing up显然可以从中得利clearly has the best interest in leaving those out,尤其是他们还“碰巧”吃这些鲸类动物particularly if they happen to be eating them.森下·助二--日本出席IWC代表森下助二是捕鲸协会的副会长Joji Marshita is the Deputy Commissioner for Whaling.他是个很有才能的日本官员只是工作很难做He's a talented guy from Japan with a real hard job to do.艾恩·坎贝尔--前澳大利亚内阁大臣每天起来He has to get up every day.他都得先看着镜子说服自己First he'll look at himself in the mirror,然后出门去and then he's got to go out向全世界解释日本的捕鲸政策and explain to the world Japan's whaling policy.这个话题可不容易说清楚Very complicated subject to get around.很显然，关于捕鲸的话题It's clear the issue of whaling大家都变得更加感情用事is becoming more of emotions.我们从来没得到一个有力的理由We have never had a convincing reason为什么这个物种如此特别why this species is so special.他们利用水下噪音They use underwater sound to herd将海豚驱赶至一地并宰杀the dolphins to a site where they are killed.芬兰请日方澄清，这一捕杀表述是否准确They asked Japan to clarify whether this was an accurate description of the hunt.日本声称这个问题涉及小型鲸类动物Japan responded that this was an issue of small cetaceans,而IWC在这个方面并无管辖能力of which it believes IWC does not have competency.国际捕鲸委员会The lnternational Whaling Commission是唯一一个和鲸鱼打交道的机构is the only international body dealing with whales保罗·沃森上尉--海洋守护协会会长绿色和平创始人之一其合法性已得到联合国的承认that's officially recognized by the United Nations.虽然这是个没种的机构It's basically a toothless organization,但确实是唯一存在的此类机构but it is the only organization that does exist.IWC于1986年明令禁止商业捕鲸一年后，日本的海豚捕杀量增至三倍并且开始启动大型鲸类的致死性研究项目国际捕鲸大会有一个条款Well, there's a clause in the lnternational Whaling Convention允许一国以科研目的捕捉鲸鱼that allows a nation to take whales for science,我们在测量鲸鱼身体比例于是日本决定利用这个漏洞and Japan has decided that that's its loophole.现在，日本的多项研究计划Currently, Japan has research programs我们在提取组织样本内容中包括捕杀梭鲸that involve killing minke whales,道格·戴马斯特--美国驻IWC专员长须鲸，大须鲸，以及座头鲸fin whales, sei whales, and humpback whales.本次科研所需的捕捉恪守国际捕鲸公约对我来说，每一次所谓的科研捕捞Every scientific catch, to me,摩纳哥都是委员会的污点is a dark spot on the record of this commission.他们整日纠结于南极的一千头鲸鱼They're talking about the 1,000 whales in the Antarctic.却绝口不提They're not talking about在这里被屠杀的两万三千条海豚the 23,000 over here being slaughtered.IWC曾经主持处理过The IWC has presided历史上最严重的生态灾害之一（指60年代的鲸鱼保护运动）over one of the greatest environmental catastrophes of all time.事实是，国际捕鲸委员会The reality is the lnternational Whaling Commission确实有训令does have a mandate调查影响海豚生存的事件to look at issues affecting dolphins,但日本却还在企图but the Japanese are trying to legitimize a practice将这个几乎全世界都否决了的提案合法化that just about every country in the world has said no to.政府在某些方面很在行Governments are really great比如拉人开会大家握手言欢，一团和气at getting together and holding meetings and conferences and glad-handing each other,但却看不到他们得出什么成果but they never ever seem to accomplish anything.正如玛格丽特·米德所说的It's as Margaret Mead once said--永远不要指望政府或者机构never ever depend upon governments or institutions能解决任何重大问题to solve any major problem.所有社会变化都源于个体的激情All social change comes from the passion of individuals.要寄希望于国际捕鲸委员会If saving cetacean species from extinction来拯救濒临鲸类relies upon the lnternational Whaling Commission,那根本就没有希望可言then there is no hope.古希腊年代During the Greek era,伤害海豚可判处死刑it was punishable by death to harm a dolphin.那时海豚得到了悉心保护They were protected,之所以如此and they were protected是因为历史上从来都不乏because there's a lot of stories throughout history类似海豚救人的故事of dolphins saving the lives of humans.当你和海豚一同冲浪时感觉真有一股魔力There's some real magic there when you're on a wave together.在你身旁的这个生灵There's this other species戴夫·拉斯托维奇小型鲸类冲浪者协会创始人之一你虽然无法和它交流that you can't consciously communicate with,但你们都共同体验着and you're both experiencing a thing这种纯粹的快乐that's purely for joy远超生存需要的快乐beyond the level of survival.有次我在澳大利亚东海岸冲浪I went surfing on the east coast of Australia.半个小时过后About half an hour into the session,我和朋友正坐在冲浪板上I was sitting with this friend of mine,他突然说“快看”and he goes, "Wait,"第二波海浪里是一条虎鲨and on the surface of the next wave was a tiger shark.它急速向我们冲过来，很快进入了攻击区Its fins were down, and it was in the zone.距离我们只有不到两米This thing was literally 2 meters away from me,我往下看，就在那儿and I look down, and right there--像是从墙上的玻璃柜里it's like in a glass case in a wall--一条海豚一跃而出this dolphin comes out of right field开始从侧面攻击鲨鱼and T-bones this shark把它远远得赶离我和朋友and pushes it directly away from me and my buddy.那一刻In that moment--我感受到了有生以来最强烈的关联感That's the most obvious demonstration of the。
