大象2.0:留住珍贵的象群集体记忆

每头大象都是巨大的象群数据库和信息网络的一个神秘入口,让我们守护这份自然的奇迹。

Elephant 2.0. - nature’s invisible information architecture

大象有着一 副如此悲伤的面孔,很难现象任何人会去伤害它们。它们有着苍白的嘴唇和下垂的肩膀;它们的姿态悠长而松弛,眼睛若有深意,可以让罪过者动容。但似乎单凭负 疚感并不能拯救大象。八年前,非洲象和亚洲象的种群总数大约有600万到900万头。如今,大约只剩50万头。日复一日,大象距离灭绝越来越近。

也许我们需要一些新的观念。也许是时候从新的角度考虑我们为什么需要保护大象。对于我们来说,珍贵的或许并不是它们的身体,而是它们共享的记忆和经验。这就是我在这篇文中想要提出的观点。
