Source text - Norwegian (Bokmal) Grønt skifte i vest
Vestland
Her har vi budd og jobba i fleire tusen år.
Med mot, djervskap og dugleik har vi fiska, jakta, rydda jord og bygt verdsleiande industri.
Men kva skjer no?
Utslippa skal ned. Vi må ta betre vare på naturen vår. Vi må skape berekraftige verksemder med fleire jobbar og auka verdiskaping og eksport.
Og det kan vi få til.
Vi har kartlagd meir enn 250 prosjekter med 18 000 potensielle grøne jobbar.
Frå Stad i nord til Sveio i sør, frå Sollund i vest til Årdal i øst, har vi snakka med verksemder, kommunar, politikarer og mange fleire. Dei har peika på kva som er mogleg:
Korleis Vestland kan bygge verdsleiande industriparkar og hamner.
Korleis vi kan verte den leiande havregionen i verda.
Korleis vi kan verte best på innovasjon av grøn infrastruktur.
Og korleis vi kan auke farten mot det grøne skiftet gjennom å bli best på samarbeid.
Det grøne skiftet er i gang.
Vi voner at alle vil vere med.
Vi treng enda fleire gode idear.
Enda fleire duglege nevar, smarte hovud og menneske som vil jobbe saman.
Det har vi gjort før, og det skal vi klare igjen.
Translation - English The green shift in the west
Western Norway
People have lived here for several thousands of years, and have worked courageously, boldly and skilfully – fishing, hunting, turning the soil and building world-leading industries.
That is our past, but what about the future?
We need to reduce our emissions. We must do better to protect our environment. We have to create sustainable businesses that employ more people, and we must increase value creation and exports.
And we can do this.
We have identified more than 250 projects with the potential for 18,000 green jobs.
From Stad in the north to Sveio in the south, from Sollund in the west to Årdal in the east – we’ve spoken with businesses, municipalities, politicians and many many more. They have shown us what we can achieve:
How we can build world-leading industrial parks and harbours in Western Norway.
How we can be the leading marine region worldwide.
How we can achieve excellence within innovation and green infrastructure.
And how we can accelerate our progress towards the green shift by being supreme partners.
The green shift is already under way.
We hope everyone will come onboard.
We need even more smart ideas.
We need even more skilled hands, agile minds and people who aspire to work together.
We’ve done it before, and we will do it again.

Bio
A true Scot. Born in Glasgow. Studied French and Italian at Glasgow University. Spent one year teaching in a French school and one year studying in Italy. Moved to Norway in 1991 and live just south of Bergen. Married into a family of boat builders and we live on the coast so spend a lot of time on the water. Have taken a "captain's certificate" for boats over 15 m in length, including navigation, ship mechanics, shipping regulations and a one-week safety course which qualifies me to work offshore. Work experience includes 2 years working for a French investment bank in London (during which time I sat and passed the general registered representative exam), long-term involvement in my father's publishing firm where I have gained in-depth knowledge of printing and publishing. Initally worked as an English language instructor for Berlitz when I moved to Norway, then moved over to translations once my Norwegian was strong enough. Work as freelancer for a number of Norwegian and European agencies and have a number of direct customers, both locally and throughout Norway. Run a local theatre group - two performances every year.
