现如今，在快节奏生活的催化下，大多数人整天忙忙碌碌，为日常事务四处奔走，为家庭、为事业、为金钱？？现实的残酷迫使我们只关注眼前的利益，根本没有时间停下脚步来为未来的人们作考虑。针对这一情况，英国哲团，为未来的人类发言，以保证人类的可持续发展。
So， I think we’ve become a lot better recently at thinking globally， at taking seriously people who are at a distance from us. But what about people who are at a distance from us in time？ So， I’m talking about future people， future generations. And I think that， in our world today， we’re still 2）dreadfully short-term as not 3）taking nearly serious enough account of the future.
So， how to deal with this？ So， I’ve got a 4）proposal about this. I say let’s bring in a new political institution to sit above any 5）chambers of 6）parliament， and to be 7）empowered and required to 8）manifest concern and care for future people， and， indeed， to represent their basic interests to us， to represent to us the kind of 9）precaution that I spoke about earlier. How would these people be selected？ My proposal， my suggestion， is that it’s a kind of “super jury”， a citizen’s jury of ordinary people， who come together to represent the future. And what power should they have？ They should have the power to 10）veto any action that would 11）undermine the basic needs of future people.
那么，我认为最近我们在为全人类考虑的想法上进步了，更加关心与我们相隔千里的人们。但是对于那些在时间上离我们更加遥远的人们呢？所以，（在这里）我讨论的是未来的人们，未来的一代。我认为，在当今世界，我们仍然鼠目寸光，没有认真地为未来作考虑。
那么，如何解决这一问题呢？对此，我这里有一个提议。让我们采用一个能够凌驾于任何议会的新的政治机构，并且赋予其权力，让它显示出对未来人们的关心和爱护。事实上，就是代表未来人们的基本利益，代表我之前所说的对未来的一些防范措施。这些人怎样被选举出来呢？我的建议是，这必须是一个“超级陪审团”——一个由普通人组成的公民陪审团，他们共同代表着未来人们的利益。那么他们该有什么权力呢？他们应该有权否决任何损害未来人们的基本需求的行为。
