Water Usage Issues of Green Hydrogen Energy
lǜ sè绿色qīng néng氢能shì是yī zhǒng一种bèi被rèn wéi认为hěn很huán bǎo环保de的néng yuán能源 。
Green hydrogen energy is considered an environmentally friendly energy source.
hěn很duō多guó jiā国家xī wàng希望yòng用tā它lái来jiǎn shǎo减少wū rǎn污染 。
Many countries hope to use it to reduce pollution.
dàn shì但是 ，shēng chǎn生产lǜ sè绿色qīng néng氢能xū yào需要dà liàng大量de的chún jìng shuǐ纯净水 。
However, producing green hydrogen requires a large amount of pure water.
bǐ rú比如 ，shēng chǎn生产yī一gōng jīn公斤qīng qì氢气dà yuē大约yào要yòng用jiǔ九dào到shí èr十二shēng升shuǐ水 。
For example, producing one kilogram of hydrogen needs about nine to twelve liters of water.
zài在yī xiē一些gān hàn干旱de的dì fāng地方 ，bǐ rú比如zhì lì智利de的ā tǎ kǎ mǎ shā mò阿塔卡马沙漠 、nà mǐ bǐ yà纳米比亚hé和máo lǐ tǎ ní yà毛里塔尼亚 ，rén men人们běn lái本来jiù就quē shuǐ缺水 ，dàn但zhè xiē这些dì fāng地方què却zài jiàn在建dà xíng大型qīng氢néng能gōng chǎng工厂 。
In some arid places, such as the Atacama Desert in Chile, Namibia, and Mauritania, people already lack water, but large hydrogen plants are being built there.
zhè yàng这样 ，gōng chǎng工厂yòng用diào掉le了běn dì rén本地人de的shuǐ水zī yuán资源 ，què却bǎ把néng yuán能源chū kǒu出口dào到qí tā其他guó jiā国家 。
In this way, the plants use up local water resources but export the energy to other countries.
hěn很duō多fēi zhōu非洲hé和yà zhōu亚洲guó jiā国家yě也yǒu有lèi sì类似de的wèn tí问题 。
Many African and Asian countries face similar problems.
suī rán虽然lǜ sè绿色qīng néng氢能kě yǐ可以bāng zhù帮助jiǎn shǎo减少kōng qì wū rǎn空气污染 ，dàn但rú guǒ如果yòng用diào掉tài太duō多shuǐ水 ，huì会ràng让dāng dì当地rén人shēng huó生活gèng更kùn nán困难 。
Although green hydrogen can help reduce air pollution, using too much water makes life harder for local people.
xiàn zài现在yǒu有yī xiē一些xīn jì shù新技术 ，bǐ rú比如yòng用hǎi shuǐ海水huò或huí shōu回收fèi shuǐ废水lái来shēng chǎn生产qīng qì氢气 ，zhè yàng这样kě yǐ可以jiǎn shǎo减少duì对dàn shuǐ淡水de的xū qiú需求 。
There are now some new technologies, such as using seawater or recycling wastewater to produce hydrogen, which can reduce the demand for freshwater.
wǒ men我们xū yào需要zài在fā zhǎn发展qīng jié清洁néng yuán能源hé和bǎo hù保护shuǐ水zī yuán资源zhī jiān之间zhǎo dào找到píng héng平衡 ，ràng让dà jiā大家dōu都néng能yǒu有shuǐ水yòng用 ，yě也néng能yǒu有qīng jié清洁de的néng yuán能源 。
We need to find a balance between developing clean energy and protecting water resources, so that everyone can have water to use and also have clean energy.
