アンドリ・S・マグナソン: 時間と水の流れのこと

時間と水の流れのこと

「私たちが今、行動を起こさなければ、今後200年の間に、私たちの氷河がすべて消失する可能性があります」と作家のアンドリ・S・マグナソンは言います。アイスランドで初めて地球温暖化によって消滅したオク氷河の話を通じて、マグナソンは、未来の世代が住む地球の状態を良好なものにするため、近しい絆を速やかに未来と結ぶ必要がある理由を語ります。

Within 200 years, all of Iceland’s glaciers could disappear unless urgent action is taken. The loss of Okjökull glacier was memorialized with a plaque addressed to future generations, acknowledging that people understand what is happening and what must be done. Generational stories, like a glacial honeymoon in 1956, shrink the distance between past and future, making environmental responsibility feel personal. Recognizing that 2100 is not far away challenges people to act for those who will remember the choices made today.
