美国国家地理协会成立已有一百年。在这一百年中,我们始终以全面、深刻地了解地球这个人类的赖以生存的环境为宗旨。在今后第二个一百年中,我们在进一步认识世界的同时,还要妥善地管理好人类居住的星球,这一点更为重要。在过去的一百年中,人类错过了许多主动和地球协调好关系的机会,以至使如今地球上的每一个角落都留有人类遭到自然报复的印迹。人类现在已处于被动地保护地球生态环境的阶段。
The National Geographic Society of America has been in existence for a hundred years. In this hundred years, we have always been guided by a comprehensive and profound understanding of the living environment of this planet of mankind. In the second hundred years to come, it is even more important that we understand the world while properly managing the planet inhabited by humanity. In the past hundred years, humankind has missed many opportunities to take active and coordinated relations with the Earth so that humankind is now impressed by natural revenge in every corner of the earth today. Mankind is now in a passive stage of protecting the earth’s environment.
