一開始我也覺得應該會很好玩，但開始學騎腳踏車之後，我就完全不這麼想了。對一個六歲時曾經因為從腳踏車上摔下來而留下陰影的青少年來說，重新學會騎腳踏車真的一點都不容易。 但不知道怎麼做到的，在一次又一次練習、一次又一次摔倒之後，我終於學會騎腳踏車了。 經歷了無數次在台北各處的練習後，那一天終於到了。我們即將踏上這趟期待了好幾個月的旅程。 一開始，那些陡峭的山路和沿途的樹木在我眼中簡直沒有盡頭，尤其是當你騎車技術已經夠爛，還騎到頭昏眼花的時候。但每當我們終於可以停下來休息，坐著吃一顆蘋果（或是他們隨機發給我們的某種水果）時，我卻開始對身邊的一切感到非常感激。 騎著騎著，我開始注意到一些以前可能不會特別留意的東西。 不只是沿途的海岸線和藍天、帶著鹹味的空氣（雖然我也不知道那到底是海水的味道，還是我自己的汗），還有我們經過的一片片森林。我也開始看到一整片被砍伐後留下的樹幹、卡在岸邊的漁網，還有那些躺在公路中央、被車輛撞死的鳥。...]]></description><link>https://www.changforearth.com/zh/post/%E9%A8%8E%E8%85%B3%E8%B8%8F%E8%BB%8A%E7%92%B0%E5%8F%B0%EF%BC%9F%EF%BC%81</link><guid

現在最讓你擔心的環境問題是什麼？為什麼？ 「應該是空氣污染。因為包括台灣在內的很多國家，使用火力發電的方式來產生電力，對環境造成很大的傷害。」 你覺得每個人都可以做什麼來幫助環境？ 「多參與和氣候相關的政策討論。」 你覺得現在為了保護環境所做的努力足夠嗎？ 「我覺得還不夠。保護環境的人和製造垃圾的人，比例並不平衡。這代表真正關心環境的人還是不夠多。如果大家能對環境議題有更多的認識和關注，也許這個情況就能有所改變。」 這些年來，你看待環境的方式有什麼改變？ 「以前我一直覺得大自然會永遠陪著我們，因為我人生中有一半的時間，都是在大自然裡，或是和大自然一起度過的。小時候，我會直接用手在河裡抓魚，也會和奶奶一起在家裡的菜園種水果和蔬菜。但隨著時間過去，我慢慢發現，這些事情未來可...]]></description><link>https://www.changforearth.com/zh/post/%E7%95%B6%E5%A4%A7%E8%87%AA%E7%84%B6%E6%9B%BE%E6%98%AF%E6%97%A5%E5%B8%B8%E7%94%9F%E6%B4%BB%E7%9A%84%E4%B8%80%E9%83%A8%E5%88%86%EF%BC%9A%E8%88%87-nick%EF%BC%8878-%E6%AD%B2%EF%BC%89%E7%9A%84%E5%B0%8D%E8%A9%B1</link><guid

歲）的對話]]></title><description><![CDATA[「三個世代，一個地球」系列第二篇 對 Claire 來說，大自然曾經不是需要特別去尋找的地方，而是日常生活的一部分。 小時候，她的鄰居會在家裡養豬，她也常常和朋友一起跑到住家後方的小山丘玩耍。然而隨著時間過去，這些熟悉的景象逐漸消失，取而代之的是更多的建築與都市發展。 這次，我訪問了 47 歲的 Claire，聽她分享童年時與自然相處的記憶、現在最關心的環境問題，以及她如何看待這幾十年來身邊環境的改變。 你對大自然最早的記憶是什麼？ 「以前鄰居家裡會養豬，我也常常和朋友一起去家附近的小山丘玩。」 現在最讓你擔心的環境問題是什麼？為什麼？ 「全球暖化。因為現在夏天真的變得越來越熱，而且極端氣候也越來越常發生。」 你覺得每個人都可以做什麼來幫助環境？ 「可以從生活中的小事開始，例如減少使用塑膠、做好資源回收，還有節約用水和用電。」 你覺得現在為了保護環境所做的努力足夠嗎？ 「我覺得還不夠。雖然現在越來越多人開始重視環境問題，但還是需要更多人真正採取行動。」 這些年來，你看待環境的方式有什麼改變？

你對大自然最早的記憶是什麼？ 「我對大自然最早的記憶，是小時候爸媽帶我開車出去玩。我會從車窗往外看，看到高速公路圍欄外的山、樹木和河流。」 現在最讓你擔心的環境問題是什麼？為什麼？ 「其實沒有一個特別讓我擔心的議題，但如果一定要選一個的話，可能是水污染。」 你覺得每個人都可以做什麼來幫助環境？ 「不要再隨地亂丟垃圾。」 你覺得現在為了保護環境所做的努力足夠嗎？ 「當然不夠，因為海洋溫度還是在持續上升，氣候變遷也很明顯還在發生。」 這些年來，你看待環境的方式有什麼改變？ 「小時候，我相信一個人的行動也可以改變世界。但長大之後，我慢慢發現，只靠一個人的力量其實很難帶來很大的改變，這個想法甚至一度讓我想要放棄。可是當我看看自己生活的地方，還有身邊的這些動物和昆蟲，我還...]]></description><link>https://www.changforearth.com/zh/post/%E5%9C%A8%E6%B0%A3%E5%80%99%E8%AE%8A%E9%81%B7%E4%B8%AD%E9%95%B7%E5%A4%A7%EF%BC%9A%E8%88%87-eve%EF%BC%8817-%E6%AD%B2%EF%BC%89%E7%9A%84%E5%B0%8D%E8%A9%B1</link><guid

當時的她甚至還沒有上幼稚園。因為家裡需要更多空間，家人決定擴建房子，而原本庭院裡的一棵樹也因此必須被砍掉。那棵樹，是王執行長小時候經常在下面玩耍的地方。 「我其實還滿難過，可是那個時候不知道怎麼跟家人表達。」她回憶道。 樹很快就被砍掉了，但這段記憶卻一直留了下來。 「後來就是會為那一棵被砍掉的樹感到難過。」王執行長說，「我覺得人類要破壞環境很快啊，可是要讓環境再復原很難，而且很慢。」 多年後，這份對環境改變的感受，逐漸成為一段更長的旅程。如今，王執行長擔任地球公民基金會執行長，多年來持續投入環境正義相關倡議，關注的議題從污染、能源，到社區與校園所面臨的環境風險。 而其中一項基金會已經投入超過十年的議題，就是校園空氣污染。 當空污成為一個切身的問題 對王執行長來說，開始關注校園空污，主要來自兩段經歷。 第一段經歷發生在自己的孩子就讀國小時。當時高雄的空氣污染相當嚴重，知道空污可能帶來的影響，王執行長每...]]></description><link>https://www.changforearth.com/zh/post/%E8%88%87%E5%9C%B0%E7%90%83%E5%85%AC%E6%B0%91%E5%9F%BA%E9%87%91%E6%9C%83%E5%9F%B7%E8%A1%8C%E9%95%B7%E7%8E%8B%E6%95%8F%E7%8E%B2%E7%9A%84%E6%8E%A1%E8%A8%AA</link><guid
