性別和種族平等的議題是眾所皆知。女性、同志、黑人等曾經被社會排擠的人們逐漸站出來為自己發聲，並為自己贏得應得的待遇。但是你說聽過「被氣候排擠」的人嗎？對住在城市的我們來說天氣熱一點也無所謂：待在室內吹冷氣，買杯冷飲解渴也是一種享受。但是住在東南亞、非洲等以農業為生的人，他們沒有選擇餘地地必須在太陽下耕作，甚至不一定有乾淨的水源。他們沒有替自己爭取權益的管道。可愛的北極熊腳下融化的冰讓我們意識到氣候問題，但我們是不是該正視我們的所作所為對世上另一個角落的人類所造成的歧視？🌿
Sexism and racism are widely acknowledged in recent years. As people bravely speak up for themselves, they begin to earn the treatment they have always deserved as part of this society. But have you heard of the "climate inequality"? For us who live in the city, even if the temperature goes up a degree or two we can just stay indoors under the AC and buy ourselves a cold drink. But for many of those who live in places like South East Asia or Africa, they don't have a choice but to farm under the sun, they don't have easy access or water or energy, let alone an access to the rest or the world. The icebergs melting, causing the adorable polar bears to lose their home is an issue that successfully brought our attention to the crisis of climate change, but I think it is time for us to face the reality, and think about how our actions may affect another ordinary human being in a another corner of this planet. 🌿
