From Rose Greenhouses to Data Centers: Will Kenya Repeat the “Greenhouse Effect”?

HSK 等级高亮 · Highlight by HSK Level
shàng上shì jì世纪,kěn ní yà肯尼亚nài wǎ shā奈瓦沙yīn wèi因为wēn shì温室zhòng huā种花hěn很yǒu míng有名,hěn很duō多gōng sī公司zài在nà lǐ那里zhǒng种méi guī玫瑰,yě也dài lái带来le了hěn很duō多gōng zuò工作jī huì机会。

In the last century, Naivasha in Kenya became famous for greenhouse flower growing. Many companies grew roses there, which also created many jobs.

dàn但hòu lái后来,rén men人们fā xiàn发现zhè lǐ这里yě也yǒu有bù shǎo不少wèn tí问题,bǐ rú比如gōng rén工人dài yù待遇bù hǎo不好、yòng用shuǐ水tài太duō多、huán jìng环境shòu受yǐng xiǎng影响、gōng sī公司shǎo少jiāo交shuì税。

But later, people found that there were also many problems here, such as poor treatment of workers, heavy water use, environmental damage, and companies paying too little tax.

xiàn zài现在,xīn新de的biàn huà变化yòu又lái le来了。

Now, new changes are coming again.

wēi ruǎn微软hé和G42jì huà计划zài在nài wǎ shā奈瓦沙ào ěr kǎ lǐ yà奥尔卡里亚jiàn shè建设dà xíng大型shù jù数据zhōng xīn中心,tóu zī投资hěn很duō多qián钱,hái还shuō说huì会tuī dòng推动shù zì数字jīng jì经济fā zhǎn发展。

Microsoft and G42 plan to build a large data center in Olkaria, Naivasha. They will invest a lot of money and say it will promote the digital economy.

kě shì可是,bù shǎo不少kěn ní yà rén肯尼亚人dān xīn担心,shù jù数据zhōng xīn中心suī rán虽然yòng用dì rè地热zhè zhǒng这种lǜ sè绿色néng yuán能源,dàn但yě也xū yào需要dà liàng大量shuǐ水hé和diàn电,hái还kě néng可能yǐng xiǎng影响tǔ dì土地、huán jìng环境hé和pǔ tōng rén普通人de的shēng huó生活。

However, many Kenyans worry that although data centers use green energy such as geothermal power, they also need large amounts of water and electricity, and may affect land, the environment, and ordinary people's lives.

rú guǒ如果dà gōng sī大公司shǎo jiāo shuì少交税,huò zhě或者rào kāi绕开běn dì本地diàn lì电力xì tǒng系统hé和yòng gōng用工zhì dù制度,guó jiā国家hé和mín zhòng民众dé dào得到de的hǎo chù好处kě néng可能bù duō不多。

If large companies pay little tax, or bypass the local power system and labor rules, the benefits for the country and its people may be limited.

hěn很duō多rén人dān xīn担心,guò qù过去huā huì花卉chǎn yè产业chū xiàn出现de的wèn tí问题,jīn tiān今天kě néng可能huì会zài在shù jù数据zhōng xīn中心shàng上zài cì再次fā shēng发生。

Many people worry that the problems seen in the flower industry in the past may happen again today with data centers.
