Unit8 Lesson 1 Roots and Shoots 参考译文第八单元绿色生活第一课根与芽很多人都有所谓的“就我一个（Just-me-ism）”问题。
这是什么意思呢？比方说，你刷牙的时候让水哗哗地流，当外出的时候不关灯，或者掉了一块垃圾却懒得捡起来。
你知道这些都是不对的，但那又怎么样？“这会有什么差别呢？”你对自己说，“世界上有数百万人，我不过是我而已。
如果我不关一个小小的水龙头，一盏小小的灯或在路上掉了一小块垃圾，这会有什么问题？而且不管怎样，也没人会知道。
”当然，如果世界上只有几个人这样，那就无所谓了。
但试想要是数百万人都对自己说：“没关系。
只有我一个。
而且，不管怎样，也没人会知道。
”那样将会浪费数百万加仑的水，忘记关掉数百万的灯，掉下数百万块的垃圾。
而这些都是非常有害的。
为了激励年轻人行动起来保护环境、动物和社区，“根与芽”（Roots＆Shoots）诞生了。
这个机构于20世纪90年代初由珍·古道尔（Jane Goodall）博士创立，在野生黑猩猩研究领域，她是世界上最著名的专家。
除了自己的科研，她一直全身心地投入环境保护事业。
“根与芽”的目的是教育年轻人，从学龄前儿童到大学生，使他们能够为创造一个安全、与自然和平共处的未来而贡献力量。
这个组织取名“根与芽”，取义根部在地下缓慢延伸以形成坚实的基础，而芽看起来又小又弱，却可以向着光明冲破砖墙的阻挡。
根和芽就是你、你的朋友和世界各地的年轻人。
成千上万的根和芽能够解决问题，改变世界、使其更加宜居。
当你使一个悲伤的人破涕为笑，让一只狗摇尾巴，给一株干渴的植物浇水时，你觉得自己让世界变得更美好了吗？一个振作起来的人，一只快乐的狗，一株开花的植物和你。
这就是“根与芽”的全部意义所在：重视每一个个体的价值和重要性，不管是人、动物还是植物。
珍·古道尔博士认为，最重要的是：“每一个个体都很重要。
每一个个体都有自己的角色。
每一个个体都能有所作为。
