Good morning everyone. Have you bought MacBook Air? Many people may be thinking about the speed of MacBook AIr. For the people, I had been to Apple Store Ginza to know the speed of MBA (13.3 inch, 1.86 GHz, Intel Core2 Duo, 2GB RAM) with comparing to my MacBook Pro (2.4 GHz, Intel Core2 Duo, 4GB RAM). As a result, the winner was MacBook Air. It took only 13 seconds. On the other hand, my Mr Unibody took more than 50 seconds. The movie was taken my Mr iPhone 3GS, but the master of the shop (he is a nice guy) did not permit to open it in Internet. It is too sad for me, because I have used Macintosh as friends for 18 years long. It's too bad for me.
さて、本日は「生態系」の頂点という内容で講義を行います。皆さんも「食物連鎖」という言葉を学校で習っているはずです。「草食動物」が草を食べ、それを「肉食動物」が食べるというものです。しかし、それとは別に、生態系というものも習っているはずです。
Today, the theme is about the top of Biogeocenosis. You leaned a word of food-chain in your school before. The harvivores have grass, and the carnivores eat them. However, you must know the concept of Biogeocenosis.
では、私たちはそうした生態系や食物連鎖のどこにいるのでしょうか?食べることはしていても食べられることは殆どありません。文明を築き、家を建て、動物を飼育し、そして、穀物や野菜を栽培しています。
On the other hand, where are we in such Biogeocenosis and food-chain? We eat everything, but we are not eaten by other animals in most cases. We have established the civilization, build cities, bred beasts, and cultured crops, fruits, and vegetables.
しかし、そうしたある意味「頂点」にいると、野生を見失います。生態系の保護などと言ってもそこには真剣さも実感も無いはずなのです。これは私たちが考えなければならない最重要課題なのです。
We are at a kind of "Top". So we have lost of view for the "Wild". We have proposed to save Biogeocenosis at COP10 or other major international meeting. We do not have both seriousness and realization. We must have an objective view for the planet. It is the most important thing to live.
<結論>
(1)我々は生態系の頂点に立ち、そして食物連鎖から独立している。
(2)真剣に客観的に生態系を見つめることこそが最重要課題だ。
[conclusion]
(1) We are the Top, and outside of food-chain.
(2) The objective view is the most important thing for us.
