All the fish that we love most to eat–
罗杰·佩恩–大洋联盟
比如条纹鲈鱼,跳鱼
things like striped bass, bluefish,
金枪鱼,剑鱼,马林鱼
tuna, swordfish, marlin–
都是汞的主要来源
this is a major source of mercury,
这些物质造成了巨大危害
and these substances are causing real problems,
不仅是对海豚,还有对人
not just to dolphins, but to people,
因为人和海豚
because people and dolphins feed
位于食物链的同一级别
at the same level of a food chain.
以宽吻海豚为例…
If you looked at bottlenose dolphins–
顺便说下,弗利普就是一条
that’s Flipper, by the way–
你会发现,实际上
you’d discover, in fact,
这些生物就是游动的毒库
these animals are swimming toxic dump sites.
吃海豚肉最好有节制
It’s better to refrain from taking those meats–
诸贯秀树–日本渔业部,副部长 小型鲸类配额管♥理♥员♥
怎么说好呢…
how do I say?
不要吃太多
Too much.
但海豚肉还是很有营养
But still dolphin meat contains some valuable nutrients.
这个问题
丹·古德曼–日本IWC代表团法律顾问
This is a matter
消费与卫♥生♥部♥门都在关注
that the consumer affairs and health ministries are looking after,
我能保证,市场上所有的产品
and I can assure you that there is no product on the market
都是符合标准的
that exceeds any of their standards.
只是他们的标准
By their standards.
达藤哲也–北海道医疗大学
在日本,海产中的建议汞含量 为0.4ppm(百万分之一)
这是海豚肉
其中含有2000ppm
2000ppm的汞
非常,非常得高,毒性很大
这是我从太地町的和歌♥山地区购买♥♥的
几乎没有人会吃海豚肉
Almost nobody eats dolphin meat,
但每年仍有两万三千条海豚被屠♥杀♥
but 23,000 are slaughtered every year,
我们不得不追问
so that begs the question,
这些肉都到哪儿去了?
Where is all this meat going?
海豚肉通常不太畅销
Dolphin meat is generally considered to be a less desirable commodity,
C·斯科特·贝克尔–俄勒冈州立大学,DNA检验专家
而且如果标明是海豚肉 价格会被压得更低
and it would sell for far, far less if it was properly labeled.
因此,这些肉的销路 实际上比我们想的要宽得多
So the meat is distributed much more widely than we recognize.
斯科特·贝克尔在东京市中心的旅馆
Scott Baker set up a portable DNA lab
设了一个可移♥动♥的DNA检测室
at a hotel in downtown Tokyo.
我们给他带去样本,由他分♥析♥化验
We brought him samples, and he analyzed them
结果发现,有很多我们带去的样品
and found that a lot of the packages
标注的是一些昂贵的鲸肉
that were labeled as expensive meat from larger whales
实际上都是海豚肉
was actually dolphin meat.
顾客或许自以为买♥♥的是
A consumer may think they’re buying healthy meat
来自南半球鲸鱼的健康肉食
from whales from the southern hemisphere,
但实际上却是来自太地町海岸的
and they might be getting a bottlenose dolphin
宽吻海豚
from the coast of Taiji
其汞含量比世界卫生组织的建议含量
with levels of mercury that are 20 times higher
高出了二十倍
than World Health Organization recommendations.
那些吃海豚肉的渔民
The fishermen who are eating dolphin
是在毒害自己的身体
are poisoning themselves,
同时也毒害了
but they’re also poisoning
买♥♥他们肉的顾客
the people that they’re selling it to.
政♥府♥心知肚明
And the government knows this,
但却把这些都掩盖起来
and the government’s covering this up.
过去,他们在水俣遇到过同样的问题
They had this problem once before in Minamata.
也是在那里,人们第一次发现汞中毒
That’s where mercury poisoning was first discovered.
他们称这种病为“水俣病”
They called it Minamata disease.
日本,水俣市
该病于1956年爆发
日本最先进的工厂,智素公♥司♥ 暗中向海中倾倒废料
在长达12年的时间里,日本政♥府♥与智素公♥司♥合谋 掩盖了这两者之间的关联
水俣悲剧在日本历史上的教训 也是惨痛的
Japan has a history of this terrible Minamata tragedy,
有时,人们将其成为“水俣病”
sometimes referred to as Minamata disease.
但实际上,那并不算一种病 因为那不是突发的
But it’s not a disease. It’s not caught.
而是长年累月毒性积累的恶果
It’s the result of this toxicity.
这种高浓的汞,对孕妇的危害
The most serious health risk of these high levels of mercury
最为严重
is to pregnant women.
因为胚胎对这些高浓度汞最为敏感
It’s the fetus that’s most sensitive to these levels of mercury.
你听说过一出生就得了水俣病的孩子吗?
他们头不能举,目不能视,耳不能听
他们口不能言,食不能咽
他们手不能握,脚不能走
之后,开始不断有畸形的婴儿出世
The children were starting to be born deformed.
如今,这场悲剧将重演
And it’s going to happen again.
没有人认真地调查过医院
Nobody has really looked into the hospitals,
以及医疗记录
Looked into the records
以确定具体的汞中毒人数
to see how many people there have mercury poisoning.
汞对大脑神经元的作用
中毒的症状表现为,记忆力衰退
The symptoms are memory loss,
听力以及视力下降
Loss of hearing, loss of your eyesight.
它不会立即致人死命
It doesn’t just knock you over dead.
而是慢慢地取人性命
It takes a while.
现在的状况就是如此
And that’s happening.
他想不想知道,他也在毒害
Does he want to know if he’s poisoning the bodies
买♥♥他肉的其他日本人?
of other Japanese that he’s selling the meat to?
他不想知道
He doesn’t want to know.
他不想知道这些事
He doesn’t want to know about it.
水俣事件的时候,政♥府♥也说
Well, in Minamata, the government said
他们没有毒害水俣的居民
they weren’t poisoning the people in Minamata, either.
记得吗?
Remember that?
记得智索工厂吗?
The Chisso factory?
智索工厂?
The Chisso factory?
和现在一样的情况,一样的问题
Same thing, same problem.
你不觉得政♥府♥在掩盖
诸贯秀树–日本渔业部,副部长 小型鲸类配额管♥理♥员♥
You don’t think there’s a cover-up going on
海豚肉的实际汞含量吗?
with the amount of mercury in dolphin meat?
我不认为海豚肉
I don’t think that a similar tragedy would happen
会导致类似惨剧
because of the dolphin meat.
我不这么认为
I don’t think so.
说到底,海豚肉的销♥售♥
Ultimately, the dolphin meat
和其他任何产品一样, 是建立在供求关系的基础上
is based on supply and demand like any other product,
如果产品有毒
and if that product is poison
他们就不能在太地町出♥售♥
and they can’t sell it in Taiji,
同理,他们也就不能在岩手
then they can’t sell it in lwate,
不能在冲绳
and they can’t sell it in Okinawa,
不能在任何一个 他们现有的市场上出♥售♥
and they can’t sell it wherever else they’re selling it.
所以我们必须 从这太地町的这一个小小的海湾开始
So you have to stay focused on that one lagoon in Taiji, I think,
才能最终摧毁整条产业链
in order to shut this down.
你好,今天觉得怎么样?
Howdy. How are you doing today?
如果我们被捕,多久之后他们才会指控?
If we got arrested, how long before they charged us?
他们压根不用指控
They don’t have to charge you with anything.
照日本法律的搞法
The way the law works in Japan,
他们不用指控也能把你关上28天
they can keep you in jail with no charges for 28 days.
九♥成♥的案子就是
90% of the convictions in Japan
靠在这28天里的招供定罪的
are obtained by confessions during those 28 days
因为他们拷问你是合法的
because they can torture you legally.
他们会半夜把你叫起来
They can wake you up in the middle of the night,
然后整晚折腾,知道吧…
all night long, you know, and–
我都这么折腾他们一星期了
I’ve been doing that to them all week.
这可有点过啊
That may be aggressive–
我们能告他吗?
Can we prosecute him?
我这才意识到
I came to realize
整个行动比我想象的要持续更久
that this was going to be a much longer process,
因此我们下了功夫,勘察地形,制定计划
so we utilized our time over there doing reconnaissance, planning.
耐心观察
We observed.
昨晚来了两队人
There’s two crews that went in last night–
从隧♥道♥里出来的
the guys that come out of the tunnel.
被布置在左侧
They’re sent to look on the left side.
他们晃动手电,行动迅速
They shine their flashlights. They go pretty quick
因为他们想尽早动身,开始工作
because they want to get to work and start out.
他们通常会查看折断的小树枝
What they’re doing is looking for little snap branches.
通常海湾里有海豚的时候
They normally go up there
他们才上去检查
when they have dolphins in the lagoon.
这么做是为了看看有没有人偷♥拍♥
They go up and see if anybody’s photographed them.
我是这么想的,我们可以上去
What I’m thinking is we go in there.
找一个有树枝的观测点
Maybe I use that location that has a branch,
然后在海湾里没海豚的时候 把树枝锯断
and I cut the branch on a night when there’s no dolphins.
任务由两部份组成
There was two parts to the mission.
