在您购买黄金时,是否会有道德方面的考量?
您是否佩戴黄金首饰或手表,或者投资于黄金?您是否愿意为了解黄金的来源和开采方式而多花一些钱?
作为黄金贸易和冶炼中心,瑞士负有特殊责任,应确保其精炼的黄金与破坏环境和人权侵犯行为无关,您是否同意这一观点?为什么?

阅读文章 完全可溯源的黄金:技术可行还是纯属幻想?
许多人一直在追捧黄金,但却很少知道参与开采黄金的人受到的剥削,就像过去的茶叶一样。
我完全赞同瑞士在黄金交易和提炼中树立环境、社会和公司治理榜样的做法。
Many people have always sought after gold, but little do they know about the exploitation of people who are involved in mining gold, like tea in the past.
I fully agree with Switzerland's approach to setting an example of an ESG in gold trading and refining.
我们已经为黄金支付了溢价。即金矿开采造成的环境和社会成本。目前,我们还没有签署相应的支票,但我们的孩子必须签字。那么,与此同时,我们是否可以更愿意投资不会加剧各种持续危机的可持续替代方案?
We are already paying a praemium for gold. Namely the environmental and social cost that gold mining causes. For now, we have not yet signed the corresponding checks, but our children will have to. So, meanwhile could we rather invest in sustainable alternatives that do not worsen the various on going crisis?
我从来没有买过黄金,但如果我买了,目前关于什么是道德(不仅仅是购买黄金)的定义将不会在我的决策中起到任何作用;因为它主要是宣传和谎言,以促进自身利益。
与我们社会中的许多事情一样,有毒的地缘政治也渗透到了黄金交易中。 我们现在不得不考虑黄金的 "国籍"(原产国);就好像特定国家的每个人都非好即坏,这种分类是基于权力游戏、贪婪、对更多控制他人的渴望,以及有关国家是否同意我们所说/所做的一切,或者他们是否想独立做出决定。
这种策略继续对我们造成越来越大的伤害--民众感到被疏远,因为政客们不再关心人们希望纳税人资助的领导人关注什么,领导人在浪费时间/金钱试图解决他们自己制造的问题,等等。 难怪所谓的极右运动日益壮大,难怪许多国家的许多/大多数选民甚至不再去投票。
道德行为始于我们自己的行动。 举例来说,我们何不停止开采贫穷国家的钻石、可可、鱼类和原材料,转而帮助他们建立自己的工业,让贫穷国家的人民能够创造更多的就业机会,养活自己?
这样就能减少冲突,减少对 "血腥钻石 "或 "不道德黄金 "的需求! 难民也会减少,而我们的纳税人却要为此支付数十亿美元。
让我们先从国内的道德行为做起。 有影响力的人有兴趣照照镜子吗?
(我所说的适用于多个国家;我的评论并非针对任何一个国家)
I have never bought gold, but if I did, the current definitions of what is considered Ethical (not just in buying gold), would play No part in my decision making; as it is mostly propaganda and lies to promote self-interests.
As with many things in our society, toxic geo-politics has infiltrated gold trading as well. We are now forced to consider the "nationality" of gold (country of origin); as if every human in a given country is either good or bad, the classification which is based on power-play, greed, hunger for more control over others, and if the country in question agrees with everything we say/do, or they want to make their decisions independently.
Such tactics continue to cause us ever more harm - population feels alienated as politicians no longer care about what people want the taxpayer-funded leaders to focus on, leaders are wasting time/money trying to solve problems which they themselves created, etc. No wonder so called far-right movements are gaining ground, and no wonder many/most voters, in many countries, no longer even bother to vote.
Ethical behavior begins with our own actions. As an example, how about we stop exploiting poorer countries, for their diamonds, cocoa, fish, raw materials, and instead, help them establish their own industries, so that people in poorer countries can create more jobs and feed themselves?
There will then be less conflicts, less need for "blood diamonds" or "unethical gold"! There will also be less refugees, which we taxpayers pay billions for.
Lets start ethical behavior at home first. Any people who have influence, interested in looking in the mirror?
(what I have said applies to several countries; my comment is not focused on any one country)
我为什么要为本应诚实、公开地提供给黄金买家的信息付费?
我不明白这个问题的动机。这个问题毫无意义。
你的意思是我是否会为符合道德标准的黄金支付更多的钱吗? 那么是的。
Why should I pay for information which should be honestly and openly available to the gold-buyer?
I don't understand the motive of this question. The question does not make sense.
Do you mean whether I would pay more for ETHICALLY sourced gold? Then yes.
不....,我不会为了知道黄金的来源和方式而支付高价。如果他们开始提供这样的报价,我会非常怀疑,因为美元正在走向消亡,而世界上唯一的 "真正 "货币就是黄金。他们操纵金价已经有很长一段时间了。黄金上涨,美元下跌。如果爆发一场 "黄金战争",以防止法定货币,尤其是美元的消亡,我也不会感到惊讶。 尽管如此,他们还是应该揭露他们在电动汽车中使用的锂电池的开采情况,这些电池甚至在电动自行车和滑板车中也会自燃爆炸。这太可怕了。如果有人做了调查,就会发现 "锂矿开采 "根本不是绿色环保的。
如果想知道我们购买的食品的来源和方式,我愿意付出更高的代价。 我尽力阅读标签来了解信息,但很多时候信息并不完整。
No....I wouldn't pay a premium to know where and how the gold was sourced. If they do start making such an offer I would become very suspicious seeing that the US dollar is on its way out and the only "real" money in the world is gold. They've been manipulating gold prices for a very long time. When gold goes up- the $ goes down. I wouldn't be surprised if a "war on gold" broke out just to prevent the demise of fiat currencies, especially the US dollar. Nonetheless, they should expose the mining of the lithium batteries they're putting in EV vehicles that are spontaneously exploding even in electric bikes and scooters. It's terrible. If a person does their research they will find that "lithium mining" is not green friendly at all.
I would pay a premium to know where and how the food that we purchase is sourced. I do my best to read the labels to discover the information but many times the info is not complete.
