9:15
most if it needs to stay in the air our atmosphere simply cannot handle it
都須存在於空氣中,我們的大氣並無法處理它
9:20
so if we don't manage fossil fuels well we lose
因此如果我們不管理石化燃料,我們就會失去這些資源
9:25
natural gas by the way is people talk about as a clean fuel
順帶一提,人們將天然氣是為乾淨燃料
9:28
it's better than coal and it could be a useful transition fuel
它比煤來的好,且它是一種有用的過渡燃料
9:32
but we shouldn't get reelected it because it is a fossil fuel
但我們不應該再次過度依賴它,因為它是種石化燃料
9:35
and it doesn't bias all that much time

so we have to manage fossil fuels let me mention one other thing about
this
