When we eat our meals, we are unaware of the deforestation that has resulted from unsustainable farming. And when billions of our actions combine to create famines and floods halfway around the world, afflicting the poorest people in drought-prone Mali and Kenya, few of us are even dimly aware of the dangerous snares of global interconnectedness.
我们打开电脑和电灯时，并不了解会造成多少碳排放。我们用餐时，也不知道不可持续的耕作导致了多少森林砍伐。当数十亿件微不足道的小事共同造成地球另一面爆发饥荒和洪水，折磨马里和肯尼亚等旱灾频发地区最贫困民众的时候，很少有人对全球网络的危险圈套有最基本的认识。
