讓我們一同宣誓

護照被蓋上「帛琉誓約」,用59字的承諾寫給帛琉的孩子--我們會輕輕探索,輕輕踩,不帶走一片雲彩。

20 January, 2020

帛琉由約200個天然石灰岩和火山島組成,被茂密的森林所覆蓋,被海藍寶石潟湖所環繞,這個小國,因為大量遊客湧入而面臨生態危機,而拓展出「有意識旅遊」的新模式,由帛琉各地的孩子們參與起草「帛琉誓約」,每一個入境者都要簽署,宣誓以生態意識在島上旅行,包括不收集海洋生物紀念品、支持當地社區與企業、不要餵魚、浮潛時避免踩到珊瑚……我留下的唯一印跡,是會沖刷掉的腳印。

 

不只帛琉,這些地方也響應永續旅遊誓約

Island of Hawai'i Pono Pledge

夏威夷誓約

I pledge to be pono (righteous) on the island of Hawai‘i.
I will mindfully seek wonder,
but not wander where I do not belong.
I will not defy death for breathtaking photos,
trespass or venture beyond safety.
I will mālama (care for) land and sea,
and admire wildlife only from afar.
Molten lava will mesmerize me,
but I will not disrupt its flow.
I will not take what is not mine,
leaving lava rocks and sand as originally found.
I will heed ocean conditions,
never turning my back to the Pacific.
When rain falls ma uka (inland),
I will remain high above ground, out of rivers and streams.
I will embrace the island’s aloha spirit,
as it embraces me.
Lawe i ka maʻalea i kūʻonoʻono.
“Take Wisdom and Make it Deep.”
熔岩會使我著迷,但我不會去中斷它的流動;我會mālama(照顧)陸地和海洋,並遠遠欣賞野生的動植物。

The Icelandic Pledge

冰島誓約

I pledge to be a responsible tourist.
When I explore new places, I will leave them as I found them.
I will take photos to die for, without dying for them.
I will follow the road into the unknown, but never venture off the road.
And I will only park where I am supposed to.
When I sleep out under the stars, I 'll stay within a campsite.
And when nature calls, I won't answer the call on nature.
I will be prepared for all weathers, all possibilities and all adventures.
當我探索新事物時,我不隨手掠取;我會沿著未知的道路前進,但永遠不會冒危險。

Aspen Pledge

亞斯本誓約

I pledge to explore aspen responsibly.
I will come prepared for any experience.
I will feed my sense of adventure, but never feed the wildlife.
I will forego high fashion, and dress for high elevations.
I will venture into the great unknown while staying on the known trails.
I will carve the snow and not the trees.
I will find myself without mountain rescue having to find me.
I will hit the slopes without hitting the other skiers.
I will take awesome selfies, without endangering myself-ie.
I will camp only where permitted and secure a permit when necessary.
I will remain in one piece, by leaving the wildlife in peace.
I will adhere to ski patrol closures as I wander here and there.
I will not ski in jeans.
我願放棄高級時裝,並追求著裝高尚; 我以雪雕刻而不去破壞樹木;我會拍很棒的自拍卻不因此招險。
