PROFESSOR QI: First of all, our netizens are very much interested in learning how your family -- you know, you, your family, former President Clinton, Chelsea -- do the environment - the energy conservation.
中國日報網 齊曄：各位網友大家好，歡迎收看中國日報網《環球對話》節目，我是清華大學的齊曄教授，今天的嘉賓是美國國務卿希拉里·克林頓，我們將和她一起討論環境保護、能源和氣候變化問題。首先，我們的網民非常感興趣地想了解您的家庭、您、還有克林頓總統、女兒切爾西在環保、節約能源方面的做法是什么？
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, first of all, let me thank you for having me be able to speak to the netizens – I like that phrase -- and I am so pleased that you are focusing on such an important topic as energy efficiency and climate change.
希拉里·克林頓：首先謝謝您讓我有機會能和（中國的）網民交談，非常高興看到您把重點放在能源效率和氣候變化這么重要的話題上。
In our own lives, we have tried to be much more conscious of what we should do. So, for example, we use compact fluorescent bulbs, which are less of a drain on the electricity grid. We have installed more high-energy resistant windows, more insulted windows. We have, obviously, insulated our utilities and our homes. We have also recycled, so that we are trying not to add to the landfill waste more than absolutely necessary.
在平常的生活中，我們努力有意識地做一些力所能及的事。譬如說我們會用一些小型的日光燈和不太耗電的燈泡，另外我們安裝了隔熱窗，我們也做垃圾回收，除非沒有別的選擇，我們盡量減少一些需要填埋的垃圾。
