WEF即World Economic Forum/世界經濟論壇，COVID-19即武漢肺炎，主要內容是原文，推文只是我找到原文的方法

近日看到多篇推文關於同一文章，不過文章本身是2022年發表的了（寫文時還可以讀取）

Wow I couldn’t believe this is live on the WEF site — COVID-19 was a test to see if you would put up with “unimaginable restrictions”. Did you pass or fail?

哇，我簡直不敢相信這是在世界經濟論壇網站上還存在的——COVID-19 是一個測試，看看你是否能忍受「難以想像的限制」，你合格了還是不合格了？

‘My Carbon’: An approach for inclusive and sustainable cities

（標題）「My Carbon」（計劃名不翻譯）：包容性和永續城市的方法

While transport and buildings are the major drivers for emissions in cities, the share of individual emissions is significant.
Personal carbon allowance programs have had limited success due to a lack of awareness and fair mechanism for tracking emissions.
Yet there have been major developments in recent years that could help realise "My Carbon" initiatives.

（文章一開頭自帶的概要？）

雖然交通和建築是城市排放的主要驅動因素，但個人排放的份額也很大
由於缺乏追蹤排放的意識和公平機制，個人碳配額計畫的成功有限
然而，近年來取得的重大進展有助於實現「My Carbon」計劃

（正文）

Cities across the world account for almost 75% of our total carbon emissions. As countries move towards implementing their pledges for a net zero future, urban areas will remain the action ground for decades to come. While transport and buildings are the major drivers for emissions in cities, the share of individual emissions are significant at around 40%.

世界各地的城市幾乎占我們總碳排放量的 75%，隨著各國努力落實對未來淨零排放的承諾，城市地區仍將是未來幾十年的行動地點，雖然交通和建築是城市排放的主要驅動因素，但個人排放的份額高達 40% 左右

Inclusivity of citizens is becoming the most important element of success or failure in the journey towards sustainability. Community-led initiatives can make a significant contribution towards sustainability, increase resilience and social cohesion. There have been numerous examples of personal carbon allowance programs in discussions for the last two decades, however they had limited success due to a lack of social acceptance, political resistance, and a lack of awareness and fair mechanism for tracking “My Carbon” emissions.

公民的包容性正在成為永續發展之路上成功或失敗的最重要因素，社區主導的措施可以為永續發展、增強復原力和社會凝聚力做出重大貢獻，在過去的二十年裡，討論中的個人碳配額計劃的例子有很多，但由於缺乏社會接受度、政治阻力以及缺乏跟踪「My Carbon」排放的意識和公平機制，這些計劃的成功有限

Our world is transforming – big community trends for sustainable cities
There have been significant developments in last five to seven years on social, environment and technology fronts that could help realise “My Carbon” initiatives for shaping the future towards smart and sustainable cities.

我們的世界正在改變—永續城市的大社區趨勢

過去五到七年，社會、環境和技術領域取得了重大進展，有助於實現「My Carbon」倡議，塑造智慧和永續城市的未來

Specifically, to mention three developments in this context:

具體而言，提及這方面的三個發展：

1. COVID-19 was the test of social responsibility – A huge number of unimaginable restrictions for public health were adopted by billions of citizens across the world. There were numerous examples globally of maintaining social distancing, wearing masks, mass vaccinations and acceptance of contact-tracing applications for public health, which demonstrated the core of individual social responsibility.

(1) COVID-19是社會責任的考驗－全世界數十億公民對公共衛生採取了大量難以想像的限制，全球範圍內有很多保持社交距離、戴口罩、大規模接種疫苗以及接受接觸者追蹤應用以促進公共衛生的例子，這些都體現了個人社會責任的核心

2. Fourth Industrial Revolution technology breakthroughs – Advances in emerging technologies like AI, blockchain and digitization can enable tracking personal carbon emissions, raise awareness and also provide individual advisories on lower carbon and ethical choices for consumption of product and services. The World Economic Forum’s Scale 360 initiative demonstrates the use of fourth industrial revolution technologies across the whole life cycle of products and services.

(2) 第四次工業革命技術突破——人工智慧、區塊鏈和數位化等新興技術的進步可以追蹤個人碳排放，提高意識，並為產品和服務消費提供低碳和道德選擇的個人建議。世界經濟論壇的「Scale 360」倡議展示了第四次工業革命技術在產品和服務的整個生命週期中的使用

（Pika：第四次工業革命/Fourth Industrial Revolution是Klaus Schwab經常提到的，不過「Scale 360」我連聽都沒聽過太多倡議啦）

There have been major advances in smart home technologies, transport choices with carbon implications, the roll-out of smart meters in providing individual choices to reduce their energy-related emissions, the development of new personalized apps to account for personal emissions, and better personal choices for food and consumption-related emissions. AI can also help strengthen circular economy business models like product as a service models, demand predictions, and smart asset management by combining real time and historical data from products and users.

智慧家庭技術、具有碳影響的交通選擇、智慧電錶的推出為個人提供減少能源相關排放的選擇、開發新的個人化應用程式來計算個人排放以及更好的個人生活等方面取得了重大進展，和消費相關排放的選擇，人工智慧還可以透過結合產品和用戶的即時和歷史數據來幫助加強循環經濟商業模式，例如產品即服務模式、需求預測和智慧資產管理

（Pika：又提到循環經濟）

There is a significant number of programs and applications enabling citizens to contribute towards carbon emissions by providing them in-depth awareness on the choices of personal carbon for food, transport, home energy and lifestyle choices.

有大量計劃和應用程式使公民能夠深入了解個人碳在食品、交通、家庭能源和生活方式選擇方面的選擇，從而為碳排放做出貢獻

These energy efficiency apps give suggestions and statistics regarding greenhouse emissions and offer ways to reduce your personal footprint. Keeping track of energy consumption in the home and motivating people to make lifestyle changes and to contribute your share towards the betterment of the environment.

這些能源效率應用程式提供有關溫室氣體排放的建議和統計數據，並提供減少個人足跡的方法。追蹤家庭能源消耗，激勵人們改變生活方式，為改善環境做出自己的貢獻

3. Raised awareness and ownership for nature and environment – In the last few years, there is an increased awareness and public concern on climate change and specially among youth. The UNDP’s “Peoples’ Climate Vote” reflects that over 64% of people believe climate change is a global emergency. A new Pew Research Center survey in 17 advanced economies found widespread concern about the personal impact of global climate change: 80% of citizens say they are willing to change how they live and work to combat the effects of climate change. Young adults, who have been at the forefront of some of the most prominent climate change protests in recent years, are more concerned than their older counterparts about the personal impact of a warming planet in many public surveys.

(3) 提高對自然和環境的認識和主人翁意識——在過去幾年中，公眾，尤其是年輕人，對氣候變遷的認識和關注不斷增強，聯合國開發計畫署的「全民氣候投票」反映出，超過64%的人認為氣候變遷是全球緊急情況，皮尤研究中心對17 個已開發經濟體進行的一項新調查發現，人們普遍擔心全球氣候變遷對個人的影響：80% 的公民表示，他們願意改變自己的生活和工作方式，以應對氣候變遷的影響。近年來，年輕人一直處於一些最著名的氣候變遷抗議活動的最前沿，在許多公共調查中，他們比年長的同行更關心地球暖化對個人的影響

What next? Sustainable cities enabled through smart communities
The three trends provide strong evidence towards enabling a social movement for “My Carbon” initiatives by enabling public-private partnerships to help curate this program. It is suggested to drive a three-way approach to shape this movement.

接下來怎麼辦？透過智慧社區實現永續城市

這三個趨勢為透過公私夥伴關係幫助策劃該計劃來推動「My Carbon」倡議的社會運動提供了強有力的證據，建議採取三向方式來塑造這項運動

（Pika：雖然忘了在哪看到但public-private partnerships/relationship好像也是常被WEF提到）

（懶得翻譯圖片）

Such economic action will need policy enablement from city leadership through extensive discussion between stakeholders to arrive at a fair and inclusive approach.

這種經濟行動需要城市領導層透過利益相關者之間的廣泛討論來提供政策支持，以達成公平和包容的方法

The levers of Cognitive Enablement and Social Norms will be much more impactful through citizen engagement programs and learnings from the above-mentioned trends need to be captured to design these programs. Innovative AI and machine-learning capabilities would help capture embedded emissions in goods and services, and could help in providing individuals with tailored and timely advice on how to reduce their lifestyle emissions.

透過公民參與計劃，認知支持和社會規範的槓桿將變得更具影響力，並且需要從上述趨勢中學習來設計這些計劃，創新的人工智慧和機器學習能力將有助於捕獲商品和服務中的嵌入式排放，並有助於為個人提供有關如何減少生活方式排放的量身定制的及時建議

Finally, it is significant that all stakeholders across the value chain come together and contribute towards achieving a net-zero future by leaving no one behind.

最後，重要的是，價值鏈上的所有利害關係人必須齊心協力，不讓任何人掉隊，為實現淨零未來做出貢獻

關於這堆零排放目標的解釋可看
