Climate Change Interpreter Services – Video Remote Interpreters also available
One of the most vigorously debated topics on Earth is the issue of climate change, bringing with it questions of responsibility and accountability. Greenhouse gas levels are higher than has ever before; cloud forests are drying, sea levels are rising, icecaps are melting. The results are known as global warming: a set of gradual changes to the Earth’s climate.
With the pressures of climate change bringing environmental issues to the top of global social and political agendas, talks are increasingly focused on the measures that need to be taken in order to slow the damaging effects of climate change on the planet, be it through using renewable energy sources or limiting the emissions of transportation. With the conflicting factors of increasing worldwide demand for energy, and future worries concerning non-renewable energy sources and their damaging effects on the environment, there is a constant pressure on nations to ensure they have energy security for the future, and that that security is not at the expense of the planet.
It is important that an interpreter or translator understands terminology associated with global warming. This ensures that interpretation or translation is precise and no misunderstandings occur. Our global warming-focused interpreters and translators, besides being highly skilled and experienced interpreters and translators, often have a prior background or qualification in this sector.

What forms of interpreter services can TJC Global provide?
Video/videoconference interpreting: (Video remote interpreting is also available) TJC provides language interpreting services to support events such as business meetings, conferences, legal/court/arbitration/litigation, and other online business interactions in the industry.
Participants can communicate via video or voice calls using computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, etc. These can be recorded should you wish to take minutes. Our professionally qualified interpreters can join your online virtual meeting, event, or proceeding, for example, and interpret remotely in the language pairing you require to facilitate smooth communication between all parties. They also provide relay interpreting.
Telephone/teleconference interpreting is a practical way to bridge any language barriers. The interpreter is either located remotely (away from either party) or is with one of the parties. In both cases, they deliver interpreting services through telephone conferencing.
Telephone interpretation is helpful for clients who cannot travel to their counterparts’ countries but still wish to hold business discussions or communicate progress updates. At TJC Global, we are pleased to provide professionally qualified interpreters in almost any selected language combination.
Simultaneous & Consecutive interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting (also available with Video Remote Interpretation (VRI))
is used for international conferences, critical business discussions, seminars & symposiums. In this case, two to three interpreters are usually situated in a booth, away from the audience, and take turns to interpret at high speed, changing over every 15-20 minutes to avoid fatigue and the lack of concentration, which affect the quality of interpretation.
The interpreters listen to the speaker’s message using headsets and repeat it immediately (practically “simultaneously”) in the target language to benefit relevant audience members. They also provide relay interpreting, which is helpful if the speakers give presentations in several languages.
Consecutive interpreting (also available with Video Remote Interpretation (VRI)) is the most common type. It is used for business discussions, negotiations, contract exchanges, commercial, legal and technical meetings, medical or court hearings, or on-site inspections or audits. The interpreter listens to the speaker, often making notes, and later delivers the meaning in the target language.
The interpreter may wait until a pause or the end, at which point they deliver a translation relatively quickly. Consecutive interpreting may also be used at conferences for panel discussions, Q&A sessions or private discussions between parties – at a stand or elsewhere.
