亲爱的朋友，让我们一起为环保而战！

多背诵环保名言，一举两得！
既学了英语，又提高了环保意识！

Don't blow it - good planets are hard to find.
别摧毁它 -- 好的星球是很难找到的！

The struggle to save the global environment
is in one way much more difficult than
the struggle to vanquish Hitler,
for this time the war is with ourselves.
We are the enemy,
just as we have only ourselves as allies.

拯救环境的战争
在某种程度上
比消灭希特勒还要艰难。
因为这场战争是我们和我们自己打的战争！
我们就是敌人，
就像我们是自己唯一的盟友一样！

We have to shift our emphasis
from economic efficiency and materialism
towards a sustainable quality of life
and to healing of our society,
of our people and our ecological systems.

我们必须把我们的重点从经济发展和物质主义
转移到生活质量的可持续发展
和社会、人类和生态系统的修复上来！

The human race will be the cancer of the planet.
人类是我们星球的癌症！

批判美国的名言：
Your grandchildren will likely find it incredible
- or even sinful -
that you burned up a gallon of gasoline
to fetch a pack of cigarettes!
－－Paul MacCready, Jr.

你的子孙会觉得不可思议，甚至是罪恶，
如果你为了买一包烟就浪费一加仑汽油！
（美国动不动就开车，无论是买瓶水，还是一包烟！）
