Bully a plant, a live experiment with two IKEAplants and with thousands of children, to help to raise awareness aroundAnti-Bullying Day on 4th May in theMiddle East.
中东的五月四日是反霸凌日，为了提升人们的反霸凌意识，宜家用两株植物让数千名孩子一起做了一个现场实验：霸凌一株植物。
The live experiment involved IKEA taking two ofits very own plants and installing them at the school, where one plant was fedcompliments and words of encouragement, while the other was verbally bulliedwith hateful words.
在这个实验中，宜家把他们家的两株植物放置在学校里，其中一株植物会被赞美的话语来喂养，而另一株则会被仇恨的话语所口头霸凌。
The students were encouraged to record theirown voices to share their love with the first plant and give words of criticismto the second.
学生们被鼓励着录下他们与第一株植物分享爱的声音以及对第二株植物的批评的话语。
After 30 days – while the complimented plantcontinued to thrive, the bullied plant was visibly struggling, and looking dullwith droopy brown leaves.
三十天后，被赞美的植物继续茁壮生长，而被霸凌的植物明显在挣扎，有着棕色的叶子并且看起来了无生气。
Both plants were treated strictly the same:with the same amount water. Exposed with of sunlight, water and fertiliser. Theonly difference being, we said words of criticism to one plant, and words ofencouragement to the other, for a span of 30 days. By the end of theexperiment, the impressive results spoke for themselves.
两株植物都是同样被对待的：都被浇了同量度的水。被阳光照射，有水也有肥料。唯一的不同就是在三十天内，对期中一株植物说了批评的话语而对另一株说了鼓励的话。在试验的最后，令人印象深刻的结果解释了一切。
连植物都尚且如此，更何况是人... 所以，无论是现实生活中还是在虚拟的网络中，我们都不要成为一个站在制高点去霸凌别人的人，因为受欺负人的心中，可不止是枯萎的叶子这么简单...
