[기사요약] 글로벌녹색성장기구 사무총장 이보 드 보어(YVO DE BOER)는 코리아 헤럴드와의 최근 인터뷰에서, 이 기구가 저탄소 개발전략을 만드는데 전념을 하고 있고 이러한 노력들이 혁신적인 방식으로 공공부분과 민간부분의 협력을 조성하여 시너지효과를 찾는 박근혜 정부의 창조경제 이니셔티브와 맥을 같이한다고 설명하고 있다.

Green growth meets creative economy

[1] The Global Green Growth Institute is committed to crafting low-carbon development strategies for emerging countries by harnessing innovation and fostering public-private cooperation in line with Seoul’s drive for a creative economy, its new chief said.

*commit to: 약속하다. ..에 전념하다
*craft: 만들다.
*harness: 이용하다
*foster: 조성하다
*creative economy: 창조경제
*in line with: ..와 비슷하게, ..와 맥을 같이하여

[2]  Yvo de Boer, former executive secretary of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, also expressed his resolve to remake the Seoul-based international organization that has taken flak for its lax budget and personnel management in recent years.

*convention: 협약, 규약, 대회
*Seoul-based: 서울에 위치한 (=based in Seoul)
*resolve: 의지
*take flak: 심한 비난을 받다
*lax: 느슨한, 이완된 (moral laxity 도덕적 해이)

[3] In an interview with The Korea Herald, the director general pinned high hopes on President Park Geun-hye’s vision of a creative economy, which he said is “very close” to the GGGI’s objective of building on innovation and human intelligence.

*pin hopes on: ..에 기대를 걸다
*objective: 목적
*innovation: 혁신, innovative: 혁신적인

[4] The initiative calls for creating new business opportunities, industries and jobs through a convergence of information and technology, culture and other sectors to jump-start the economy.

* call for: 요구하다
* convergence: 만남, 수렴 (converge: 한 지점으로 모이다, 수렴되다)
* jump-start: 차를 뒤에서 밀어서 시동을 걸다 (=boost)

[5] “Now we basically live in a society or on a planet where we’re running out of resources, people are getting older and older, and we need to create jobs in new, more intelligent ways,” de Boer said.

*run out of : …가 없어지다. 고갈되다
*resource: 자원
*intelligent: 지능적인

[6] “I think for many developing countries the issue is how they can skip much of the industrialization phase that rich countries went through and immediately move to an economy which is much more modern and much more progressive.”

*skip: 거르다, 넘어가다
*industrialization: 산업화 (industrial: 산업의, industrious: 근면한)
*go through: 경험하다 (=undergo, experience)
*progressive: 진보적인

[7] Take the example of telephones, he suggested. Unlike in the past when fiber-optic cables were installed nationwide, many developing countries skip the phase in favor of mobile phone technology, which also facilitates built-in banking and health care services.

*fiber-optic: 광섬유의
*install: 설치하다
*facilitate: 용의하게 하다
*phase: 단계 (=stage)
*built-in: 장착된, 붙박이의

[8] “Similarly with energy, we’ve gone through the fossil fuel power generation era in industrialized countries. For many developing countries, the issue is how you can immediately leapfrog to more innovative, clean energy so once again you don’t have to put wires all over the country,” de Boer said.

*fossil fuel: 화석연료
*industrialized countries: 산업화된 선진국
*leapfrog to: (큰 폭으로) 도약하다. 뛰어넘다.
*clean energy: 청정에너지

[9] The GGGI was launched in 2010 by the Korean government to bridge rich and poor countries by funding and sharing technological know-how for environmentally friendly development.

*launch: 발족하다, 발사하다
*bridge: 연결하다, 격차를 줄이다
*environmentally-friendly: 환경친화적인
