敬愛的柯布教授,女士們先生們,晚上好!
非常榮幸在此發(fā)言。
Dear Professor Cobb, Ladies and gentlemen, goodevening,
It is my honor to be here today.
作為一種儀式,頒獎是伴隨人類漫長發(fā)展歷史的一個悠久傳統(tǒng),用以表彰那些為社會作出貢獻的人士,但其目的則在于鼓勵社會向這些卓越的人學習。在所有的獎項中,有一種特殊的獎,那就是以某個人命名的獎項。這樣的獎項則還有另外一個意義,那就是在表彰的同時,還多了一個紀念和致敬的意義,即向這個獎項的冠名者致敬。所以,今天,我在這里首先向第11屆柯布共同福祉獎的得主莎倫·斯諾伊思教授表示誠摯的祝賀,我非常欽佩她多年來持之不懈地推動中西文化深度對話的可貴努力,與此同時,我也要向柯布先生致敬,因為他本人就是生態(tài)文明最虔誠的信徒和最堅定的實踐者。
Giving award was one of the oldest traditions in human history. It recognizes those who contributed to society and encourages others to learn from these outstanding individuals. There are many awards, but when we name an award after someone, it is an honor to remember his/her important contribution. So, today, we offer my sincere congratulations to Prof. Sharon Snowiss, the winner of this year's John Cobb Common Good Award. She has my utmost admiration for promoting the deep dialogue between Chinese and the Western cultures so many years, and at the same time, I also would like to pay sincere tribute to Dr. Cobb, who is the great pioneer and active practitioner of ecological civilization.

今天,請允許我借此機會分享我對于社會創(chuàng)新、社會價值及其與生態(tài)文明關系的理解。我將向大家介紹三個中國的生態(tài)文明最新實踐的案例,以便各位對中國的生態(tài)文明建設有更新更清晰的了解。
Today, I would also like to take this opportunity toshare the latest successful stories of common good from China, so that youcould get a clear and up-to-date understanding of the eco-civilization in China.
第一個分享案例是關于摩拜共享單車的,大家可能都已經(jīng)聽說了。作為目前世界上最大的無地樁共享自行車平臺,摩拜的Aim是致力于解決人們上下班“最后1公里”的問題。這段路人們走起來有點遠,打車不劃算且有可能還打不到。共享單車不僅成功解決了這個問題,同時給中國大型城市普遍原本在惡化的交通問題也帶來相當?shù)母纳?。摩拜在Approach上的創(chuàng)新之處在于他們?yōu)槊枯v單車都配裝了聯(lián)網(wǎng)控制的電子車鎖,使用者只要用智能手機APP掃描一下車身上的二維碼,就能給共享單車開鎖,鎖車就能結(jié)束使用和計費結(jié)賬。而且因為每輛車身上還裝有GPS定位芯片,你甚至可以用手機預訂遠程預定某輛單車。因為方便好用、租費低廉(每半小時只要5毛錢),目前摩拜已經(jīng)從國際國內(nèi)獲得了數(shù)十億美元風險資本的投資。同時,摩拜的成功模式也激發(fā)了其他的共享單車創(chuàng)業(yè)者,到現(xiàn)在為止,已經(jīng)有OFO、藍勾勾等大概20來家其他共享單車品牌出現(xiàn),他們各自采取的辦法都略有不同,但都以服務于中國人的社會需求為目標。
The first story is a sharing economy case. Youprobably heard of Mobike by now. It is the largest station-less bicycle sharingplatform in the world. With the aim to solve “the last kilometer” issue, inwhich commuters face the problem of being stuck a bit too far from theirdestination to walk, but too close to justify the cost or delay of finding ataxi, and indirectly to ease the worsened traffic issues for all major citiesin China as well. Mobike’s very innovative approach is to provide a bike withinternet-controlled electronic lock, commuter can use smart phone app to scanthe QR-code to unlock the bike and when finishes by simply locking it to settlethe payment. Each bike has a GPS tracking chip. You can even book a bike viayour mobile phone. The access to these bikes is very convenient and the cost ofusing these bikes extremely affordable to almost everyone, about 12 US centsper half hour. So far, Mobike has attracted billions of dollars fromdomesticand international venture capital. And with its success, other bike sharingplatforms have emerged. So far there are about 20 bike sharing platforms suchas OFO and BLUEGOGO. They all have different approaches but with the commongoal to serve the social demands from Chinese residents.
第二個案例是一個循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(藍色經(jīng)濟)的例子。有家在河北的叫盛乾能源的公司,大家可能都聽過或見過中國特別是北京周邊的霧霾吧?盛乾能源的Aim就是為本地居民和企業(yè)解決環(huán)境污染、提供清潔能源。他們的Approach是創(chuàng)建了一個物質(zhì)能量循環(huán)的生產(chǎn)過程閉環(huán):1、建沼氣站用秸桿和其他可降解的生物質(zhì)廢棄物生產(chǎn)沼氣為當?shù)鼐用裆罟夤?,同時自發(fā)電,并為地當工廠供電;2、沼渣可制成優(yōu)質(zhì)有機肥;3、有機肥用于土壤改良;4、改良后的土壤種出的有機農(nóng)產(chǎn)品為人畜提供安全的食物,同時產(chǎn)生秸桿和糞便回供第一環(huán)節(jié)的沼氣站完成整個生產(chǎn)過程的閉環(huán)。這個項目已經(jīng)吸引到重量級的影響力投資人,馬上就要與一家法國能源投資公司(因涉及商業(yè)秘密恕不說出具體名字)簽署數(shù)百萬美元的合同。通過跨界經(jīng)營,他們在技術(shù)和商業(yè)模式上的創(chuàng)新把當?shù)氐纳a(chǎn)生活提升到了一個新的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)平衡水平。
The second story is a circular economy one. We canalso call it a blue economy case, the company is called Shengqian Energylocated in HEBEI province. I think you must have heard and seen the smogpollution around Beijing.Shengqian Energy’s aim is to reduce the environmentalpollution and provide clean power to local citizens and business. The approachis creating a closed energy loop by using its new technology which is 1)process straw, which is the stalk and leaves from the farming crops, and otherbio-degradable wastes into marsh gas. Then distribute to local household forcooking, heating and other usages. It also provides electricity to factoriesand power generation. 2) The residual from the first step will be the materialfor organic fertilizer. 3) Organic fertilizer will not only fertilize theplants but also improve the quality of the soil. 4)Organic crops willprovide safe food to people and feed theanimals and close the whole circle by giving back straw to the marsh gasstation. It has been supported by the local government and has attracted someof the high-profiled impact investors, and currently is about to sign amultimillion dollar contract with a French investment firm. Due to theconfidential agreement, I would not disclose the names here. The new technologyand innovative business model have turned the local livelihood and businessinto a new ecological civilization. It has created social value and establishednew ecosystem by means of cross-sectoral cooperation.
第三個案例是把開源技術(shù)的概念應用于城鄉(xiāng)開發(fā)的“開源村”。我們都知道,技術(shù)在世界發(fā)展中曾經(jīng)并在未來將繼續(xù)發(fā)揮不可替代的作用。這個項目是由一群關心社會發(fā)展的技術(shù)高手、設計師和藝術(shù)家發(fā)起的,這群創(chuàng)客將進入追求環(huán)境友好的社區(qū)和村莊,利用FABLAB(微觀裝配實驗室)為當?shù)卦O計和生產(chǎn)完全環(huán)保的空氣凈化器、循環(huán)用水裝置和環(huán)保農(nóng)機具等。同時,這些做好的設計會向公眾公開分享。開源村有兩個深刻的意義:1、開放性是生態(tài)文明的重要原則;2、開放精神會帶來多元、積極和均衡發(fā)展的社會?,F(xiàn)在已經(jīng)有五個開源村在建設當中,未來友成將支持開源村在中國各地舉辦“生態(tài)嘉年華”。
The third case OpenSource Village is about how to use the concept of open source technologyfor rural and urban development. As we all know, technology has played and willcontinue to play an essential role in the world development. We shall not ignorethis fact when talking about the future civilization. This project is initiatedby a group of hackers, designers and artists who are concerned about socialdevelopment. These makers will go to a community and use Fabrication Lab toproduce all green technology, such as air and water detection system parts, andfarming tools needed in eco-friendly villages. All the designs are shared, andopen to the public. Open source village has two profound meanings: first, it isone of the important principles of eco-civilization; second, under the samespirit, openness will bring diversified, positive and balanced society. Currentlyfive villages are under construction all over China. In the future, YouChangeFoundation will sponsor Open Source Village to organize an ECO-Carnival acrossChina.
上述三個案例只不過是眾多社會實驗中的小小樣本,盡管三個案例的Approach和Action/方法和執(zhí)行路徑都不相同,但卻有共同的指向,那就是人類對未來更美好生活的共同夢想——生態(tài)文明的渴望。三個案例同時也都很好地體現(xiàn)了生態(tài)文明的三大關鍵特征:共享、循環(huán)和開放,并且這三個案例也表現(xiàn)了在Aim,Approach和Action三者的一致性,無論是東方還是西方文化中,這種一致性都是被強調(diào)的。
These 3 stories are only small samples from manysocial experiments in China. Although they have different approaches andactions but they all aim at same direction, the reflection of mankind’s commondream for the better future----eco-civilization. All these three samplesillustrate three key features of eco-civilization: sharing, cycling andopenness,andthey also showed the consistency of the aim, approach, and action, whichis emphasized by both eastern and western cultures .

再次祝賀莎倫·斯諾伊思教授和柯布教授!
最后,我相信,我們今天在克萊蒙的精彩討論一定會激勵更多的生態(tài)文明試驗在中國以及世界其他地方涌現(xiàn)!
謝謝!
Congratulations again to the winner and Prof. Cobb. Ibelieve that more and more experiments will emerge in China and in the rest ofthe world, inspired by what we discussed here at Clarement.
Thank you!
