Toyota has agreed not to contest the fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eric Booth, a spokesman for the automaker, said that the company had alerted the authorities as soon as the lapses came to light, and that the delay in reporting \u201cresulted in a negligible emissions impact, if any.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNonetheless, we recognize that some of our reporting protocols fell short of our own high standards, and we are pleased to have resolved this matter,\u201d Booth added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toyota is the world\u2019s second-largest automaker behind Volkswagen, and once built a reputation for clean technology on the back of its bestselling Prius gasoline-electric hybrid passengers cars. But the auto giant\u2019s decision in 2019 to support the Trump administration\u2019s rollback of tailpipe emissions standards \u2014 coupled with its relatively slow introduction of fully electric vehicles \u2014 has made it a target of criticism from environmental groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toyota\u2019s more recent lineup of models has been heavy on gas-guzzling sport utility vehicles, which come with far bigger price tags and have brought far higher profit margins. According to a recent report from the Environmental Protection Agency, Toyota vehicles delivered some of the worst fuel efficiency in the industry, leading to an overall worsening of mileage and pollution from passenger cars and trucks in the United States for the first time in five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many automakers are now bracing for a likely push by the incoming Biden administration for a return to stricter tailpipe emissions rules, and have signaled they are committed to working with administration officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>The Clean Air Act (\u7c73)\u5927\u6c17\u6c5a\u67d3\u9632\u6b62\u6cd5\uff0c\u6392\u30ac\u30b9\u898f\u5236\u6cd5<br>levy \u8ab2\u3059\u3001\u53d6\u308a\u7acb\u3066\u308b<br>breach \uff08\u6cd5\u5f8b\u30fb\u7d04\u675f\u306a\u3069\u306b\u5bfe\u3059\u308b) \u9055\u53cd\u3001\u4e0d\u5c65\u884c\u3001\u4fb5\u5bb3<br>defect \u6b20\u9665\u3001\u4e0d\u5099\u3001\u4e0d\u5177\u5408<br>air pollutant \u5927\u6c17\u6c5a\u67d3\u7269\u8cea<br>noncompliance (\u6cd5\u5f8b\u30fb\u5951\u7d04\u30fb\u898f\u5247\u306a\u3069\u306b\u5bfe\u3059\u308b) \u4e0d\u670d\u5f93\u3001\u4e0d\u5c65\u884c\u3001\u9055\u53cd<br>-breach, violation<br>contest \u7570\u8b70\u3092\u5531\u3048\u308b\u3001\u53cd\u5bfe\u3059\u308b<br>negligible \u7121\u8996\u3067\u304d\u308b\u307b\u3069\u306e\u3001\u53d6\u308b\u306b\u8db3\u308a\u306a\u3044<br>nonetheless \u305d\u308c\u306b\u3082\u304b\u304b\u308f\u3089\u305a \u3001\u305d\u308c\u3067\u3082\u306a\u304a\u3001\u3068\u306f\u3044\u3048<br>-however, nevertheless<br>rollback \u5f8c\u9000\u3001(\u7269\u4fa1\u306a\u3069\u306e) \u5f15\u304d\u4e0b\u3052<br>gas-guzzling (\u81ea\u52d5\u8eca\u304c) \u30ac\u30bd\u30ea\u30f3\u3092\u3088\u304f\u98df\u3046(\u5927\u91cf\u306b\u6d88\u8cbb\u3059\u308b)\u3001\u9ad8\u71c3\u8cbb\u306e<br>brace for \uff5e\u306b\u5099\u3048\u308b\u3001\uff5e\u306b\u69cb\u3048\u308b<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"117\">1\/17(\u65e5)\u306e\u653e\u9001<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>NRA Declares Bankruptcy and Seeks to Exit New York<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/121546\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aDanny Hakim<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seeking an end-run around an investigation by the New York attorney general, the National Rifle Association said Friday that it was declaring bankruptcy and would reincorporate in Texas.

But that changed after the movie\u2019s release on Dec. 25, when realization spread that the Danish-language version had been dubbed primarily by white actors. This is also the case in many other European-language versions of \u201cSoul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While in most countries, the film\u2019s voice-over casting has barely registered with the public, in Portugal, more than 17,000 have signed a petition calling on Pixar to remake the local edition with actors of color. \u201cThis movie is not just another movie, and representation matters,\u201d the petition states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joe Gardner, the main character in \u201cSoul,\u201d is Pixar\u2019s first Black protagonist. The studio took steps to accurately represent African American culture, hiring Kemp Powers as a co-director and installing a \u201ccultural trust\u201d to safeguard the story\u2019s authenticity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Danish version, Joe is voiced by Nikolaj Lie Kaas, who is white. When the national newspaper Berlingske interviewed scholars and activists who expressed their disappointment about this and suggested that the casting was an example of structural racism, a fiery controversy erupted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asta Selloane Sekamane, one of the activists who criticized the casting in the Berlingske article, said in an interview that no one can claim there wasn\u2019t enough Black talent to fill the main roles, because actors of color were hired to voice some of the minor parts. \u201cIt can\u2019t be the constant excuse, this idea that we can\u2019t find people who live up to our standards,\u201d she added. \u201cThat\u2019s an invisible bar that ties qualification to whiteness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mira Skadegard, a professor at Aalborg University in Denmark who researches discrimination and inequality, said the resistance to accusations of structural racism was unsurprising. \u201cIn Denmark, we have a long history of denial when it comes to racism, and a deep investment in the ideal of equality,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t really understand this as a critique of institutions and structures; we see it as a critique of who we are,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>counterparts\u3000(\u5f62\u30fb\u6a5f\u80fd\u306a\u3069\u304c)\u4f3c\u305f\u76f8\u5bfe\u7269\u3000*9\/1\u306e\u5fa9\u7fd2<br>[\u8a9e\u6e90: contra(\u76f8\u5bfe\u3059\u308b)+part(\u90e8\u5206\u3001\u7247\u5272\u308c)]<br>feature (film)\u3000\u9577\u7de8\u6620\u753b<br>\u261d\ufe0f\u9577\u7de8\u3068\u307f\u306a\u3059\u57fa\u6e96\u306f\u56e3\u4f53\u306b\u3088\u3063\u3066\u57fa\u6e96\u304c35\u301c80\u5206\u3068\u307e\u3061\u307e\u3061<br>rapture\u3000\u6b53\u559c<br>[\u8a9e\u6e90: rapture(\u596a\u3044\u53bb\u308b)\u2192\u6c17\u6301\u3061\u3092\u596a\u3044\u53bb\u308b]<br>life-giving\u3000\u751f\u6c17\u3092\u3042\u305f\u3048\u3066\u304f\u308c\u308b<br>by and large\u3000\u3060\u3044\u305f\u3044<br>\u261d\ufe0f\u822a\u6d77\u306e\u8868\u73fe\u3001\u98a8\u306b\u7a81\u3063\u8fbc\u3080\u304b\u6a2a\u306b\u53d7\u3051\u308b\u304b\u2192\u5e83\u7bc4\u56f2<br>dubbed\u3000\u5439\u304d\u66ff\u3048\u3089\u308c\u3066\u3044\u308b *12\/22\u306e\u5fa9\u7fd2<br>barely\u3000\u307b\u3068\u3093\u3069\u301c\u306a\u3044<br>registered with\u3000\u5370\u8c61\u3092\u6b8b\u3059\u3001\u77e5\u3089\u308c\u308b<br>\u261d\ufe0fregister(\u8a18\u9332\u3059\u308b)<br>representation\u3000\u8868\u8c61<br>safeguard\u3000\u4fdd\u8b77\u3059\u308b<br>authenticity\u3000\u771f\u6b63<br>\u261d\ufe0fauthentic(\u672c\u7269\u306e) \u2194\ufe0e fake(\u507d\u7269\u306e)<br>structural racism\u3000\u69cb\u9020\u7684\u4eba\u7a2e\u5dee\u5225<br>fiery\u3000\u6fc0\u3057\u3044<br>\u261d\ufe0ffire(\u706b)+-y(\u306e\u3088\u3046\u306a)<br>controversy\u3000\u8ad6\u4e89 [\u8a9e\u6e90: contra(\u76f8\u5bfe\u3059\u308b)+versy(versus\u5bfe\u7acb)]<br>live up to\u3000\u301c\u306b\u6dfb\u3046<br>\u261d\ufe0flive up to one\u2019s expectations(\u671f\u5f85\u306b\u6dfb\u3046)<br>qualification\u3000\u8cc7\u683c\u304c\u3042\u308b\u3053\u3068<br>unsurprising \u610f\u5916\u3067\u306f\u306a\u3044\u3001\u4e88\u60f3\u3067\u304d\u308b<br>\u261d\ufe0fun\u3092\u3064\u3051\u308b\u3068\u3001\u5225\u306b\u301c\u3058\u3083\u306a\u3044<br>critique\u3000\u6279\u5224<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"120\">1\/20(\u6c34)\u306e\u653e\u9001<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Trump Orders Lifting of Virus Travel Ban, but Biden Aides Vow to Block Move<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/122210\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aMichael D.

The reason: It didn\u2019t make enough money to cover both its entertainment productions and its business costs, like payroll and rent and marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That fact has caused a long-standing gripe over Netflix\u2019s business model, and it\u2019s why some observers have long argued that Netflix is a debt-ridden house of cards that would eventually come tumbling down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reed Hastings, Netflix\u2019s co-chief executive and co-founder, expected Hollywood would soon catch up in the streaming market, and the company stockpiled content as quickly as possible. To finance the hefty licensing and production costs, it borrowed the money. And kept borrowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The risk was clear: If Netflix didn\u2019t generate enough cash by the time the debts came due, it would be in serious trouble. Hastings was betting that the company could attract subscribers (and raise its prices) faster than the debt clock was ticking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gambit seems to have worked. The company will still have $10 billion to $15 billion in debt, but it said it now made enough revenue to pay back those loans while maintaining its immense content budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company made $542 million in profit on $6.64 billion in sales in the fourth quarter. Investors had been expecting $625 million in profit and $6.6 billion in revenue, according to S&amp;P Capital IQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the debt Netflix accumulated allowed it to flex its film slate for 2021, when it plans to release 70 new movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are still risks to Netflix\u2019s cash-fueled alleyway to streaming dominance. Hollywood has finally caught up, and much larger companies like the Walt Disney Co., with Disney+, and AT&amp;T, with HBO Max, are now making big bets on streaming, giving consumers more choices and threatening Netflix\u2019s market share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>gripe \u60a9\u307f\u306e\u7a2e\u3001\u4e0d\u5e73<br>debt-ridden \u501f\u91d1\u307e\u307f\u308c\u306e\u3001\u8d64\u5b57\u3092\u62b1\u3048\u305f<br>house of cards \u7802\u4e0a\u306e\u697c\u95a3\u3001\u4e0d\u5b89\u5b9a\u306a\u8a08\u753b<br>tumble down \u5d29\u58ca\u3059\u308b\u3001\u5d29\u308c\u843d\u3061\u308b<br>hefty \u304b\u306a\u308a\u306e\u3001\u76f8\u5f53\u306a<br>gambit \u5148\u624b\u3001\u7b56\u7565<br>immense \u81a8\u5927\u306a\u3001\u5de8\u5927\u306a<br>flex \u529b\u3092\u898b\u305b\u3064\u3051\u308b\u3001\u5a01\u529b\u3092\u793a\u3059<br>cash-fueled \u73fe\u91d1\u306b\u3055\u3055\u3048\u3089\u308c\u305f\u3001\u73fe\u91d1\u3092\u6295\u5165\u3057\u305f<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"122\">1\/22(\u91d1)\u306e\u653e\u9001<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Biden, in a Burst of Climate Orders, Rejoins the Paris Agreement<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/116701\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aCoral Davenport and Lisa Friedman<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Joe Biden on Wednesday recommitted the United States to the Paris climate agreement, the international accord designed to avert catastrophic global warming, and ordered federal agencies to start reviewing and reinstating more than 100 environmental regulations that were weakened or rolled back by former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The moves represent a first step in healing one of the deepest rifts between the United States and the rest of the world after Trump defiantly rejected the Paris pact and seemed to relish his administration\u2019s push to weaken or undo major domestic climate policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Biden has made tackling the climate crisis among his highest priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to combat climate change in a way we have not before,\u201d Biden said in the Oval Office on Wednesday evening, just before signing the executive orders. Even so, he cautioned: \u201cThey are just executive actions. They are important but we\u2019re going to need legislation for a lot of the things we\u2019re going to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign leaders hailed Biden\u2019s first moves as a powerful signal that the United States, the largest contributor to global warming in history, intends to restart its efforts to lower pollution levels and to restore the international order upended by Trump. \u201cWelcome back to the Paris Agreement!\u201d President Emmanuel Macron of France said in a Twitter message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the Paris Agreement, nearly 200 nations have vowed to reduce planet warming emissions to avert the most disastrous consequences of climate change. A letter to the United Nations signed by Biden on Wednesday formally starts the 30-day process of bringing the United States back into the accord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But analysts cautioned that Biden\u2019s actions on day one must be quickly followed by a series of aggressive domestic climate policies to drastically lower the country\u2019s emissions of planet-warming pollution from tailpipes, smokestacks and oil and gas wells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also on Wednesday, Biden rescinded the construction permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, which would have transported carbon-heavy oil from the Canadian oil sands to the Gulf Coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the lengthy legal process of undoing most of Trump\u2019s environmental rollbacks and replacing them with new regulations could take years and is likely to be strewed with political land mines if Republicans or business groups fight them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote
