✨在這個大城市中我們是否曾經迷惘曾經迷失自己呢?
「我 17 歲一個人來台灣的時候 其實已在面對憂鬱症兩年 在有壓力的狀況下 每天想著為何當人那麼難」
「但來到台灣後認識了大海 , 學習不同文化 我開始衝浪又創業 我給了自己多一些機會去做我熱愛的事情 後來的轉折點是透過行動 找回了原本一直存在心裡的火花」
✨「人生的意義是每個人自己給它的 在我眼裡能活著這本身就是一個禮物」
「但做個現代的都市人 我們常把自己綁在一個太小的世界裡 我們容易忘記 大環境的意思,大自然的重要性,還有它的能量」
「像地球不只是資源,它也是我們的家 社會也是 ... 身邊的人都是像兄弟姊妹 而就像環境 , 我們要彼此照顧、互相幫忙 大家才能享受這趟短短的人生」
「雖然要面對很多的高低潮,但其實就是有這些成長會讓我們感到活著」
「我們來的時候 , 什麼都沒有 要走的時候 , 什麼都帶不走 我們唯一花了而拿不回來的資源是時間 ,我們沒得贏沒得輸 所以不管好與壞 要勇敢付出、勇敢愛,這樣活在當下,才是活的 『無後悔』」

"When I came to Taiwan at the age of 17, I had been facing depression for two years. During that stressful phase of life,I always wondered why it’s so complicated to be a human.
But after moving to Taiwan, I got to know the ocean and learn about the culture.
�I got into surfing and started a business.
�I gave myself more chances to do what I love.
And it was only through action,That I rediscovered the spark of life that had always existed in my heart.
The meaning of life is given to it by every person him/herself. And in my eyes, being alive is a gift in itself.
While living a modern urban life,�Many get lost in a small world view.
�We tend to forget about the meaning of the environment, the importance of nature and its energy.
The earth is not only a resource, it is also our home.
�So is society - to me, we are all nothing but brothers and sisters. And just like caring for the environment, we could care for each-other.
�I believe that this is the way we could all love in harmony together.
In life there are many ups and downs, but it’s these hurdles that result in growth - They are what make us feel alive!
When we were born, we came with nothing.�And when we leave, we will leave with nothing.
�The only resource that we spend and will never come back is “time”.
There’s nothing to win and nothing to lose. So come good or bad, be brave to give and brave to love.
💫“Live in the moment.�Live a life with no regrets"

【#拜登就職演說全文】★中英版本★
資料來源:美國白宮新聞稿
This is America’s day. This is democracy’s day.
A day of history and hope. Of renewal and resolve.
Through a crucible for the ages America has been tested anew and America has risen to the challenge.
Today, we celebrate the triumph not of a candidate, but of a cause, the cause of democracy.
The will of the people has been heard and the will of the people has been heeded.
We have learned again that democracy is precious.
Democracy is fragile.
And at this hour, my friends, democracy has prevailed.
So now, on this hallowed ground where just days ago violence sought to shake this Capitol’s very foundation, we come together as one nation, under God, indivisible, to carry out the peaceful transfer of power as we have for more than two centuries.
We look ahead in our uniquely American way – restless, bold, optimistic – and set our sights on the nation we know we can be and we must be.
I thank my predecessors of both parties for their presence here.
I thank them from the bottom of my heart.
You know the resilience of our Constitution and the strength of our nation.
As does President Carter, who I spoke to last night but who cannot be with us today, but whom we salute for his lifetime of service.
I have just taken the sacred oath each of these patriots took — an oath first sworn by George Washington.
But the American story depends not on any one of us, not on some of us, but on all of us.
On “We the People” who seek a more perfect Union.
This is a great nation and we are a good people.
Over the centuries through storm and strife, in peace and in war, we have come so far. But we still have far to go.
We will press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility.
Much to repair.
Much to restore.
Much to heal.
Much to build.
And much to gain.
Few periods in our nation’s history have been more challenging or difficult than the one we’re in now.
A once-in-a-century virus silently stalks the country.
It’s taken as many lives in one year as America lost in all of World War II.
Millions of jobs have been lost.
Hundreds of thousands of businesses closed.
A cry for racial justice some 400 years in the making moves us. The dream of justice for all will be deferred no longer.
A cry for survival comes from the planet itself. A cry that can’t be any more desperate or any more clear.
And now, a rise in political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat.
To overcome these challenges – to restore the soul and to secure the future of America – requires more than words.
It requires that most elusive of things in a democracy:
Unity.
Unity.
In another January in Washington, on New Year’s Day 1863, Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation.
When he put pen to paper, the President said, “If my name ever goes down into history it will be for this act and my whole soul is in it.”
My whole soul is in it.
Today, on this January day, my whole soul is in this:
Bringing America together.
Uniting our people.
And uniting our nation.
I ask every American to join me in this cause.
Uniting to fight the common foes we face:
Anger, resentment, hatred.
Extremism, lawlessness, violence.
Disease, joblessness, hopelessness.
With unity we can do great things. Important things.
We can right wrongs.
We can put people to work in good jobs.
We can teach our children in safe schools.
We can overcome this deadly virus.
We can reward work, rebuild the middle class, and make health care
secure for all.
We can deliver racial justice.
We can make America, once again, the leading force for good in the world.
I know speaking of unity can sound to some like a foolish fantasy.
I know the forces that divide us are deep and they are real.
But I also know they are not new.
Our history has been a constant struggle between the American ideal that we are all created equal and the harsh, ugly reality that racism, nativism, fear, and demonization have long torn us apart.
The battle is perennial.
Victory is never assured.
Through the Civil War, the Great Depression, World War, 9/11, through struggle, sacrifice, and setbacks, our “better angels” have always prevailed.
In each of these moments, enough of us came together to carry all of us forward.
And, we can do so now.
History, faith, and reason show the way, the way of unity.
We can see each other not as adversaries but as neighbors.
We can treat each other with dignity and respect.
We can join forces, stop the shouting, and lower the temperature.
For without unity, there is no peace, only bitterness and fury.
No progress, only exhausting outrage.
No nation, only a state of chaos.
This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward.
And, we must meet this moment as the United States of America.
If we do that, I guarantee you, we will not fail.
We have never, ever, ever failed in America when we have acted together.
And so today, at this time and in this place, let us start afresh.
All of us.
Let us listen to one another.
Hear one another.
See one another.
Show respect to one another.
Politics need not be a raging fire destroying everything in its path.
Every disagreement doesn’t have to be a cause for total war.
And, we must reject a culture in which facts themselves are manipulated and even manufactured.
My fellow Americans, we have to be different than this.
America has to be better than this.
And, I believe America is better than this.
Just look around.
Here we stand, in the shadow of a Capitol dome that was completed amid the Civil War, when the Union itself hung in the balance.
Yet we endured and we prevailed.
Here we stand looking out to the great Mall where Dr. King spoke of his dream.
Here we stand, where 108 years ago at another inaugural, thousands of protestors tried to block brave women from marching for the right to vote.
Today, we mark the swearing-in of the first woman in American history elected to national office – Vice President Kamala Harris.
Don’t tell me things can’t change.
Here we stand across the Potomac from Arlington National Cemetery, where heroes who gave the last full measure of devotion rest in eternal peace.
And here we stand, just days after a riotous mob thought they could use violence to silence the will of the people, to stop the work of our democracy, and to drive us from this sacred ground.
That did not happen.
It will never happen.
Not today.
Not tomorrow.
Not ever.
To all those who supported our campaign I am humbled by the faith you have placed in us.
To all those who did not support us, let me say this: Hear me out as we move forward. Take a measure of me and my heart.
And if you still disagree, so be it.
That’s democracy. That’s America. The right to dissent peaceably, within the guardrails of our Republic, is perhaps our nation’s greatest strength.
Yet hear me clearly: Disagreement must not lead to disunion.
And I pledge this to you: I will be a President for all Americans.
I will fight as hard for those who did not support me as for those who did.
Many centuries ago, Saint Augustine, a saint of my church, wrote that a people was a multitude defined by the common objects of their love.
What are the common objects we love that define us as Americans?
I think I know.
Opportunity.
Security.
Liberty.
Dignity.
Respect.
Honor.
And, yes, the truth.
Recent weeks and months have taught us a painful lesson.
There is truth and there are lies.
Lies told for power and for profit.
And each of us has a duty and responsibility, as citizens, as Americans, and especially as leaders – leaders who have pledged to honor our Constitution and protect our nation — to defend the truth and to defeat the lies.
I understand that many Americans view the future with some fear and trepidation.
I understand they worry about their jobs, about taking care of their families, about what comes next.
I get it.
But the answer is not to turn inward, to retreat into competing factions, distrusting those who don’t look like you do, or worship the way you do, or don’t get their news from the same sources you do.
We must end this uncivil war that pits red against blue, rural versus urban, conservative versus liberal.
We can do this if we open our souls instead of hardening our hearts.
If we show a little tolerance and humility.
If we’re willing to stand in the other person’s shoes just for a moment.
Because here is the thing about life: There is no accounting for what fate will deal you.
There are some days when we need a hand.
There are other days when we’re called on to lend one.
That is how we must be with one another.
And, if we are this way, our country will be stronger, more prosperous, more ready for the future.
My fellow Americans, in the work ahead of us, we will need each other.
We will need all our strength to persevere through this dark winter.
We are entering what may well be the toughest and deadliest period of the virus.
We must set aside the politics and finally face this pandemic as one nation.
I promise you this: as the Bible says weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning.
We will get through this, together
The world is watching today.
So here is my message to those beyond our borders: America has been tested and we have come out stronger for it.
We will repair our alliances and engage with the world once again.
Not to meet yesterday’s challenges, but today’s and tomorrow’s.
We will lead not merely by the example of our power but by the power of our example.
We will be a strong and trusted partner for peace, progress, and security.
We have been through so much in this nation.
And, in my first act as President, I would like to ask you to join me in a moment of silent prayer to remember all those we lost this past year to the pandemic.
To those 400,000 fellow Americans – mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, sons and daughters, friends, neighbors, and co-workers.
We will honor them by becoming the people and nation we know we can and should be.
Let us say a silent prayer for those who lost their lives, for those they left behind, and for our country.
Amen.
This is a time of testing.
We face an attack on democracy and on truth.
A raging virus.
Growing inequity.
The sting of systemic racism.
A climate in crisis.
America’s role in the world.
Any one of these would be enough to challenge us in profound ways.
But the fact is we face them all at once, presenting this nation with the gravest of responsibilities.
Now we must step up.
All of us.
It is a time for boldness, for there is so much to do.
And, this is certain.
We will be judged, you and I, for how we resolve the cascading crises of our era.
Will we rise to the occasion?
Will we master this rare and difficult hour?
Will we meet our obligations and pass along a new and better world for our children?
I believe we must and I believe we will.
And when we do, we will write the next chapter in the American story.
It’s a story that might sound something like a song that means a lot to me.
It’s called “American Anthem” and there is one verse stands out for me:
“The work and prayers
of centuries have brought us to this day
What shall be our legacy?
What will our children say?…
Let me know in my heart
When my days are through
America
America
I gave my best to you.”
Let us add our own work and prayers to the unfolding story of our nation.
If we do this then when our days are through our children and our children’s children will say of us they gave their best.
They did their duty.
They healed a broken land.
My fellow Americans, I close today where I began, with a sacred oath.
Before God and all of you I give you my word.
I will always level with you.
I will defend the Constitution.
I will defend our democracy.
I will defend America.
I will give my all in your service thinking not of power, but of possibilities.
Not of personal interest, but of the public good.
And together, we shall write an American story of hope, not fear.
Of unity, not division.
Of light, not darkness.
An American story of decency and dignity.
Of love and of healing.
Of greatness and of goodness.
May this be the story that guides us.
The story that inspires us.
The story that tells ages yet to come that we answered the call of history.
We met the moment.
That democracy and hope, truth and justice, did not die on our watch but thrived.
That our America secured liberty at home and stood once again as a beacon to the world.
That is what we owe our forebearers, one another, and generations to follow.
So, with purpose and resolve we turn to the tasks of our time.
Sustained by faith.
Driven by conviction.
And, devoted to one another and to this country we love with all our hearts.
May God bless America and may God protect our troops.
Thank you, America.

這是美國的一天,這是民主的一天,是歷史和希望的一天,是更新與決心的一天。美國幾個世代經過熔爐的考驗之後,如今再次遭到試煉,而且已再次奮起應付挑戰。今天,我們慶祝的不是一位候選人的勝利,而是一個奮鬥目標的勝利,是為民主的奮鬥。人民的意志被聽見了,人民的意志得到了關注。
我們再次學到,民主是珍貴的,民主是脆弱的,而在此刻,朋友們,民主已然勝利。短短幾天之前,還有暴力試圖撼動國會的根基,但今天我們齊聚這個莊嚴的所在,以一個在上帝之下不可分裂的國家,展開權力的和平轉移,一如我國200多年的傳統。
我們要用美國特有的方式,也就是不停歇、勇敢、樂觀的方式展望未來。放眼我們可以成為、也必須成為的國家。我謝謝今天蒞臨的兩黨前任總統,我衷心感謝,你們知道我國憲法的韌性,以及我們國家的力量。卡特總統(Jimmy Carter)也是,我昨晚與他通了電話,但他不克前來。我們為他畢生的奉獻向他致敬。
我剛才跟這幾位愛國者一樣鄭重宣誓,一篇最初由華盛頓宣讀的誓詞。然而,美國故事靠的不是我們任何一個人,或一部分人,而是我們全體。它靠的是「我們人民」,在尋求一個更好的合眾國的人民。這是個偉大的國家,我們是一群良善的人。
經歷過去幾個世紀的風雨和衝突、和平與戰爭,我們走過很長一段路,但前方還有很長一段路要走。我們將快速緊急前行,因為在這個危險與機會的冬天,我們有很多事要做。有很多需要修補、需要恢復、需要癒合。有許多需要建設,也可以有很多收穫。
在我國歷史上,很少人或很少時刻面臨著比我們目前更大的挑戰或困難。百年一見、無聲無息蔓延整個國家的病毒,在一年之內奪走的人命,跟美國在第二次世界大戰犧牲的總人數一樣多。數百萬工作機會流失,成千上萬企業關門。
400年來的種族正義的呼聲感動著我們,全民同享公義的夢想將不再拖後。地球生存的呼聲再急迫不過,也再清楚不過。如今政治極端主義、白人至上主義和本土恐怖主義的興起,讓我們有必要起來面對並將它們擊倒。
克服這些挑戰、恢復美國靈魂和鞏固未來需要的不只是話語,而是民主當中最難以捉摸的部分,那就是團結一心,團結一心。
另一個一月天,在1863年開年之時,林肯總統簽署解放奴隸宣言。讓我引述他在下筆時所說的話:「如果我留名青史,將會是因為這份宣言,以及我投注其中的全心全意。」
今天,同樣在一月裡,我全心全意投注於此:團結全體國人,團結整個國家。我請求所有美國人加入,和我一起努力,團結對抗我們共同的敵人:怨氣、不滿、仇恨、極端主義、目無法紀的行為、暴力、疾病、失業和無助。
團結一心,我們能夠成就偉大事業、重要的事情。我們可以糾正錯誤,可以讓民眾找到好的工作,可以在安全的校園教導孩子,可以克服這個致命的病毒。我們可以讓工作獲得報酬,重建中產階級,可以提供全民健保,可以兌現種族正義,讓美國再次成為世界主要的良善力量。
我明白,這個時候談論團結聽起來像愚昧的天方夜譚,我知道分裂我們的力量又深又真切,但我也知道這些力量不是現在才出現。美國向來在人人平等這個理想,和國家長期被種族主義、本土主義、恐懼和妖魔化分化的醜陋現實之間掙扎。這個征戰從未止息,勝利並無保證。
從南北戰爭、大蕭條、世界大戰到911恐攻,儘管歷經奮鬥、犧牲和挫折,良善的天使向來都會勝利。每當遇到這種時刻,我們都會有足夠的人團結一心,讓全國一起向前,我們現在也可以這麼做。
歷史、信仰和理性指向一條明路,一條團結之路。我們可以不把彼此當成敵人,而是鄰居。我們可以尊嚴和尊重彼此相待,可以同心協力,停止叫囂,讓溫度冷卻。因為沒有團結就沒有和平,只會留下苦毒與憤怒;不會有進步,只會有讓人厭倦的離譜言行;不會有國家,只會有混亂狀態。
這是我們危機和挑戰的歷史性一刻,而團結是前進的道路,我們必須以合眾國的姿態來面對這一刻,若能做到,我向諸位保證我們不會失敗。當我們團結起來,我們從來就不曾失敗,因此在這一天,在此時此刻,就在這裡,讓我們重新來過,全體一起來。讓我們開始再次彼此聆聽,讓對方說,相互探望,對彼表達尊重。
政治不必像這一團熊熊之火,燒毀一切,歧見不必成為全面戰爭的理由。我們必須摒棄操弄甚至捏造事實的文化,同胞們,我們不能這樣,美國必須不只是這個樣子,而且我相信美國不至淪落至此。
看看四周,我們站在國會大廈圓頂之下,這是南北戰爭時期完成的,當時美國的前途還在未定之天,但我們挺過來了,我們勝利了。我們現在站在此,看著偉大的國家廣場,金恩博士(Martin Luther King Jr.)曾對廣場上的群眾訴說他的夢想。也是在這裡,108年前的另一場就職典禮,數以千計的抗議人士試圖阻撓一群勇敢的婦女遊行爭取投票權。
今天我們見證副總統賀錦麗創造美國歷史,成為第一位擔任國家領導人的女性,別告訴我事情無法改變。
我們站在這裡,隔著波多馬克河(Potomac River)遠眺阿靈頓國家公墓(Arlington National Cemetery),也就是為國捐軀的英雄長眠之地。我們站在這裡,不過幾天前,暴動的群眾以為他們可用暴力箝制民眾的意志,阻撓民主運作,把我們驅逐出這塊聖地。但事情未如他們所願,今天不會,明天也不會,永遠都不會。
每位支持我們參選的民眾,我因你們給予我們的信心感到謙卑。對於沒有支持我們的人,讓我對你們說:未來請聽我說的話,評量我和我的心。如果你們還是不同意,也罷。這就是民主。這就是美國。以平和的方式在我們國家的規範之內表達異議的權利,可能是我國最大的優勢。
但請聽清楚:不同意見絕對不能變成不團結。而且我向各位保證,我要當全體國人的總統。不論你支持我或不支持我,我都將同樣為你們而努力。
好幾個世紀之前,我所屬教會的聖者聖奧古斯丁(Saint Augustine)曾經寫道,人民是個群體,由他們共同喜愛的東西所定義。身為美國人,我們共同喜愛而且能定義我們的東西是什麼?我想我們都知道:機會、安定、自由、尊嚴、尊重、榮譽,是的,還有真相。
最近的幾個星期、幾個月給了我們痛苦的教訓:有真相,也有謊言,為了權力和利益而說的謊言。我們每個人做為公民,做為美國人,特別是身為領導者的人,曾經承諾要遵守憲法、保護我們的國家的領導者,有職責、有責任要捍衛真相、打敗謊言。
我瞭解有許多同胞以害怕、惶恐的心情看待未來。我瞭解他們擔心工作問題。我瞭解他們像我父親那樣,夜裡躺在床上盯著天花板,想著得要有醫療保險、有貸款要付、想著他們的家庭,想著接下來會如何。我跟各位保證,我瞭解。但答案不是退縮,不是進入到彼此競爭的派系,不信任看起來跟你不一樣的人,跟你有不同信仰的人,或者新聞來源不同於你的人。
我們必須結束這場「無禮的戰爭」,它讓紅藍對立、鄉村與都市的民眾對立、保守派與自由派對立。我們可以做到,如果我們敞開心胸,而不是讓我們的心變硬,如果我們展現一些包容和謙虛,如果我們願意為別人設想,就像我母親說的:只要一下子就好,為別人設想。
因為人生就是這樣,你無法預知命運。有些時候,你會需要別人伸出援手,還有些時候,人家會請你伸出援手。就是要這樣,這就是我們為彼此做的事。如果我們這麼做,我們的國家就會更強大、更繁榮,更能為未來做好準備,而且我們還是可以有不同意見。
同胞們,我們在推動未來的工作時,會需要彼此。我們要集舉國之力,才能度過這個黑暗的冬天。我們可能在進入疫情最嚴重、最致命的階段。我們必須把政治擺在一邊,要終於能夠舉國對抗這個大流行,用舉國之力。我向各位保證,就如聖經所說:「一宿雖有哭泣,早晨便必歡呼。」我們將可一起度過,一起!
各位,我跟我在參眾兩院的同事們都瞭解,世人正在觀看,他們今天在看著我們,因此這是我要對國外傳達的訊息:美國受到試煉,而我們因此更為茁壯。我們將修補我們與盟國的關係,再次與世界往來,不是為了面對昨天的挑戰,而是今天和明天的挑戰。我們將不是藉著我們力量的典範來領導,而是憑藉我們典範的力量。我們將會是和平、進步與安定堅強而且可信賴的夥伴。
各位都知道,我們國家經歷了許多事情。我做為總統要做的第一件事,是要請你們跟我一起,為過去一年因疫情喪生的人們默禱,紀念那40萬個同胞,母親、父親、丈夫、妻子、兒子、女兒、朋友、鄰居和同事們。我們要成為我們自知可以成為、而且應該成為的人民和國家,以此榮耀他們。因此我請大家,一起為離世和失去親友的人們,還有我們的國家默禱,……阿們。
各位,這是試煉的時刻。我們面對對民主與真相的攻擊、正在肆虐的病毒、嚴重的不公、系統性的種族歧視、陷入危機的氣候,還有美國在全球的角色問題。其中任何一點都足以對我們構成嚴重的挑戰。但事實是,我們在同時面對這一切,這讓美國挑起我們最重大的責任之一。我們將受到試煉,我們能迎接挑戰嗎?這是大膽的時候,因為有好多事情要做。
而我向各位保證,這點是肯定的:你我將被評判,標準是我們如何解決這個時代一一發生的危機。我們將迎接挑戰。我們能否戰勝這個罕見而艱難的時刻?我們能否履行我們的義務,把一個新的、更好的世界傳給我們的下一代?我相信我們必須那麼做,而且我相信你們也這麼認為。我相信我們會,而且當我們做到,我們將寫下美國歷史偉大的新章節。美國的故事。
這個故事可能像一首對我來說深具意義的歌曲,它叫「美國頌」(American Anthem),它有一段歌詞至少對我來說很特別,它是這樣說的:「數百年的努力與祈禱讓我們來到今天,我們有什麼能傳承下去?我們的子孫會怎麼說?當我的日子結束,讓我內心知曉,美國,美國,我已為你付出最大努力。」
讓我們把我們自己的努力和祈禱,加到我們偉大的國家仍在發展的故事之中。如果我們做到,那麼當我們的日子結束,我們的子孫和他們的子孫會說:「他們付出了最大的努力,他們盡了他們的責任,他們修補了破碎的國家。」
同胞們,我的結語要跟開頭一樣,有個神聖的誓言。在上帝和各位面前,我向你們保證。我將始終開誠布公,我將捍衛憲法,我將捍衛我們的民主。我將捍衛美國,全心全力奉獻為你們服務,心中想的不是權力,而是可能性,不是私利,而是公眾的利益。我們將一起寫下美國希望的故事,而非恐懼的故事,是團結而非分歧,是光明而非黑暗。是禮貌與尊嚴、愛與療癒、偉大與善良的故事。
希望這是引導我們的故事、啟發我們的故事,是能告訴未來的世世代代我們回應歷史的召喚並且回應了時代挑戰的故事。民主與希望、真相與公義沒有在我們的時代衰亡,而是生生不息,美國固守了國內的自由,並且再次成為世界的明燈。這是我們對先人、對彼此和對未來世世代代的責任。
因此,我們要有目標、有決心,把注意力轉向這個時代的任務,靠信心來維持,靠信念來驅使,為彼此和我們全心熱愛的國家而奉獻。願上帝保佑美國,保守我們的三軍。謝謝美國!

【專欄】陳惠萍:「城市」,是全球永續發展的關鍵戰役!(10/31/2020 天下雜誌CSR@天下)
作者:陳惠萍
為喚醒國際社會對城市行動的重視,自2014年起,聯合國將每年10月31 日指定為「世界城市日(World Cities Day)」。透過「城市與SDG」系列文章,看見全球邁向永續發展的過程中,城市如何發揮關鍵角色及影響力,實踐美好的未來。
「城市是男人和女人,女孩和男孩居住的地方,也是他們為生活打拼並實現夢想的所在。這裏亦是解決貧窮及不平等、提供健康與教育服務、保護生態體系、以及保障人權的地方。-SDG Cities Guide」
「城市化(Urbanization)」正為世界帶來巨大變革與影響。據聯合國統計,全球已有一半以上人口居住於城市,到2030年將超過6成,人數增加至50億。
高樓林立的都會叢林,不僅是人們搭乘夢想翱翔、揮灑繁華的所在,同時也可能是貧窮、失業、社經落差、不可持續消費及生產方式的淵藪之地。僅佔全球土地面積3%左右的城市,在為全球創造高達八成GDP的同時,也產生了70%以上的能源消耗和碳排放、並使用超過六成以上資源。
面對失控的地球暖化與氣候緊急狀態,城市開始被視為國家主體之外,所謂「非國家體系(non-state actor)」的重要行動者。如同2015年紐約世界城市高峰會暨市長論壇開幕時,聯合國副秘書長Jan Eliasson所呼籲:「城市將是這場永續發展之戰的決勝之地。」
城市雖然僅佔世界的極小領域,但其所影響的社會、經濟與環境範疇卻十分巨大。因此,對於永續發展的追求不僅是城市首長的重要政治行動,也將成為左右全球氣候變遷戰役成敗的關鍵節點。
從城市開啟美好生活:SDG11與永續城市
面對又熱又平又擠的世界,城市如何變得更好?
聯合國永續發展目標(Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs)提供了具體指引,幫助城市領導人擘劃更公平美好的發展藍圖,讓每一座城市都成為永續願景之城。
其中,SDG11「永續城市」訴求「建立具包容性、安全、韌性及永續的城市與人類社區」( Sustainable Cities and Communities : Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable),例如:改善貧民窟&提供負擔得起的住房和基本服務、打造便民的公共運輸系統、減少城市廢棄物與空污問題、提供安全且具包容性、可及性的公共場所及綠色空間等,讓每一位居住在城市的居民都能獲得更有品質的生活。
城市作為回應全球氣候倡議及行動的積極角色,可透過彼此串連、促進城市治理模式的經驗學習,從而加速全球城市轉型。以下,將簡要介紹國際上重要的城市組織網絡與資源。
(1)「地方政府永續發展理事會」(ICLEI):
全球最早共同承諾推動永續發展的地方政府網絡「地方政府永續發展理事會(ICLEI- Local Governments for Sustainability,ICLEI)」成立於1990年,截至2020年已有超過124個國家、1750個地方政府串連為夥伴城市,成為引領城市轉型的重要國際地方政府網絡。
其中包含12個巨型城市、100個超級城市和都會區、450個大型城市,以及450個中小型城市及城鎮。目前,台灣也有11個城市加入成為會員城市(包含:屏東縣、高雄市、台南市、嘉義市、雲林縣、台中市、新竹縣市、桃園市、台北市、新北市。其中ICLEI東亞地區高雄環境永續發展能力訓練中心也是德國波昂總部以外唯一的能力訓練中心)。
ICLEI積極倡議全球性的地方政府運動,並致力推動地方社區與城市計畫,達成公平、安全、韌性、活力經濟及健康環境之目標。其主要採取五大發展路徑推進城市達成SDG目標:(1)基於自然的發展;(2)韌性發展;(3)低碳發展;(4)循環發展;(5)公平及以人為本的發展。
(2)「城市氣候領導聯盟」(C40):
2005年成立的對抗氣候變遷網絡「城市氣候領導聯盟(C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group,C40)」以城市結盟型態和舉辦「城市氣候高峰會(C40 Large Cities Climate Summit)」等方式,促進各城市對抗氣候變遷議題的行動經驗與交流。迄今有97個城市會員,總計產出約1萬個應對氣候變遷的城市行動方案。
2018年,C40曾發布一份《我們不想要的未來》報告書(註:其名稱回應2012年里約Rio+20大會後通過的報告書:《我們想要的未來》),其中指出面對氣候災害的影響下,幾乎所有城市都暴露在危險之中。
城市所面臨的6大脆弱性問題包括:酷熱、高溫與貧窮、水的可及性、糧食安全、海平面上升與能源供應。
這份研究表明,全球城市面臨共同且廣泛的威脅風險,身處其中的城市居民將受到影響最劇烈的氣候災難。此外,報告書中也強調都市「熱島效應」所導致的極端高溫與空氣污染與健康風險,將使得某些弱勢人群(兒童、老人、病人及窮人)特別容易蒙受其害。
因此,地方領導及決策者除了必須致力邁向永續城市發展,以因應日益加劇的氣候風險及城市治理挑戰。更重要的是,城市領袖也應當關注氣候災害下,市民如何因為種族、性別、年齡或健康狀況而遭遇不同程度的衝擊,才能落實更具公平性與韌性的城市未來。
(3)「聯合國永續發展解決方案網絡」(SDSN):
2012年,聯合國秘書長潘基文建立「聯合國永續發展解決方案網絡」(The UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network ,SDSN),連結全球科學與技術專家,尋求解決方案以實踐永續發展目標。
為了評估聯合國193個會員國家在SDG方面的總體進展,SDSN除了發布各國在17項SDG的總體進展排名,也繪製地圖呈現所有國家在各別SDG項目上的得分。
除此之外, SDSN也幫助改善城市治理,並自2013年起SDSN發起「城市永續發展目標運動」( Campaign for an Urban Sustainable Development Goal)形成獨立專責的城市永續發展項目,透過與地方政府&利害關係人合作,共同支持SDG11的實施及推廣。
其中幾項重點城市方案:美國永續城市倡議(USA-SCI)和里約永續城市倡議(Rio Sustainable Cities Initiative),不僅見證典範城市的成功經驗,也分享相關政策工具及資源,藉以帶動更多永續城市發展。
(4)「全球氣候與能源市長聯盟」(CGoM):
2016年全球兩大主要氣候倡議城市聯盟:「全球市長聯盟(Compact of Mayors)」與「歐洲市長盟約(Covenant of Mayors)」進一步擴大結盟,共同組成「全球氣候與能源市長聯盟(The Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy,CGoM)」。
截至目前,該聯盟已成功結合139個國家、1萬個城市及地方政府的承諾進行城市自願性氣候行動,影響超過9億人口,成為規模最大的城市行動聯盟。
「全球氣候與能源市長聯盟」的使命與目標是:透過具體的氣候及能源行動,幫助城市與社區人民帶來更健康、綠色及具韌性的未來。主要從「減少溫室氣體排放」、「調適氣候變遷影響」及「發展可負擔的再生能源」3大主軸來促進城市永續發展。
這條城市永續轉型的旅程,將包含幾個階段:提交承諾、評估影響及風險、設定溫室氣體減量目標、制定計畫、實行、監控與報告、驗證成果、定期更新資料。
在此過程中,每個城市都可能有不同的路徑,但GCoM將透過提供資源串連,協助建立知識、數據、金融及氣候服務共享的全球夥伴關係,加速這場世界城市轉型運動的進展。
城市與我們的未來
城市的未來,取決於今日的行動並將影響下一個世代。如同「未來倫理:氣候變遷與政治想像(Future Ethics: Climate Change and Apocalyptic Imagination)」一書所提醒,氣候問題的背後事實上涉及了世代正義、哲學與道德等深層意涵。
如何面對「我們不想要的未來」,並且開創「我們想要的未來」,這場永續發展的戰役正在城市展開。或許,每一位穿梭在大城小鎮中,為了美好生活而努力著的你我,也都將無法置身其外!

In the prologue you will be given the option to set your difficulty and name your hero. Currently, the hero does not have a strictly canon name, but the name given to him in in the Persona 5 manga which released in September of 2016 is written 来栖 暁, or "Akira Kurusu" - first name, last name. The kanji for Akira, 暁, means "daybreak" which ties into the title of the one episode anime from 2016, Persona 5 the Animation: The Day Breakers.
Beneath the veneer of typical urban high school life, a group of teenagers mask their mysterious alter egos, their "phantom thief" side. Who are they? Why are they dressed as such? What are their motives? And... why are they being pursued? A picaresque coming-of-age story, Persona 5 brings a new twist to the RPG genre. Assume the role of a second-year high school student who becomes a Persona-user through an unexpected incident. Having moved to Tokyo just before the start of the school year, he finds residence at a cafe run by his parents' friend, and is about to get his first taste of school life in the big city. The protagonist seems quiet and well-mannered at first glance, but gives a completely different impression once he has donned his "phantom thief" guise. What is the motivation of his alter ego...? Arsene is the protagonist's initial Persona, characterized by a mask-like face and a pair of huge, black wings. Some suspect an association between its name and the famous gentleman-thief, Arsene Lupin. What is the origin of this Persona, and what power does it hold? This is an account of the wild adventures experienced by a team of young misfits, who grow dramatically along the way. While attending Shujin High School, the protagonist will encounter a number of individuals, each with his or her own distinctive personality and charm. School life in the city is full of surprises and interesting events! It will most definitely be a fun year for the protagonist, living as an ordinary student. However, he and his friends become involved in an incident which leads to the awakening of their Personas. No one would ever suspect that these adolescents will eventually shake the world... Welcome to the next iteration of the Persona series, boasting a brand new metropolitan setting, all-new cast, and fresh, original story
