New Problems Brought by the Green Energy Transition
本站:原文:
kē xué jiā科学家men们zǎo jiù早就fā xiàn发现qì hòu biàn huà气候变化shì是yí gè一个dà大wèn tí问题。
Scientists have long recognized that climate change is a big problem.
wèi le为了jiǎn shǎo减少wēn shì qì tǐ温室气体，rén men人们kāi shǐ开始shǐ yòng使用gèng更duō多lǜ sè绿色néng yuán能源，bǐ rú比如tài yáng néng太阳能hé和fēng néng风能。
To reduce greenhouse gases, people have started using more green energy, such as solar and wind power.
diàn dòng chē电动车hé和shǒu jī手机diàn chí电池xū yào需要yòng用dào到lǐ锂děng等kuàng wù矿物。
Electric cars and phone batteries require minerals like lithium.
zhōng guó中国shì是shì jiè世界shàng上zuì最dà大de的xī yǒu稀有kuàng chǎn矿产kāi cǎi开采guó国。
China is the world's largest producer of rare minerals.
hěn很duō多lǐ锂kuàng矿zài在nán měi zhōu南美洲，zhè xiē这些dì fāng地方yǒu有hěn很duō多yuán zhù mín原住民。
Many lithium mines are in South America, where there are many indigenous people.
kāi cǎi开采kuàng wù矿物huì会yòng用hěn很duō多shuǐ水，hái还huì会pò huài破坏huán jìng环境，ràng让dāng dì当地rén人shēng huó生活biàn dé变得gèng更nán难。
Mining minerals uses a lot of water and damages the environment, making life harder for local people.
yǒu shí hòu有时候，kuàng shān矿山fù jìn附近de的shuǐ水hé和kōng qì空气huì会bèi被wū rǎn污染，dòng wù动物yě也huì会sǐ qù死去。
Sometimes, water and air near mines get polluted, and animals die.
suī rán虽然lǜ sè绿色néng yuán能源duì对dì qiú地球yǒu有hǎo chù好处，dàn但wǒ men我们yě也yào要zhù yì注意bǎo hù保护huán jìng环境hé和rén men人们de的shēng huó生活。
Although green energy is good for the Earth, we also need to pay attention to protecting the environment and people's lives.
wǒ men我们xū yào需要zhǎo dào找到gèng更hǎo好de的fāng fǎ方法，ràng让lǜ sè绿色néng yuán能源biàn dé变得gèng更gōng píng公平、gèng更ān quán安全。
We need to find better ways to make green energy fairer and safer.
