www.XiYuS锡育软件Whats happening to the climate?气候到底发生了什么?00:12It is unbelievably bad.糟糕地让人难以置信。00:14This is,obviously,that famous view now of the Arctic,which islikely to be gone at this point in the

old gypsumdrywall process,that generates 20 billion pounds of CO2 ayear.我们说自己能够重新设计具有115年历史的 石膏墙体工艺,正是它 每年产生着200亿磅的二氧化碳。00:39So it was a big idea.We wanted to reduce that by 80

they worked absolutely very,very,very hard.他们真的非常非常非常努力地工作。01:07So then we went forward and built our production line inChina.然后我们进一步在中国建设了生产线。01:09We dont build this production equipment any longer in theU.S.,unfortunately.遗憾地是我们将不会在美国建立这样的生产线。01:12We did the line install over the summer.整个夏天我们都忙于生产线的安装。01:15We started right there,with absolutely nothing.我们就是从那里开始,从无到有。01:17Youre seeing for the first time,a brand new drywallproduction line,not made using gypsum at all.您将会第一次看到全新的墙体生产线 完全不使用石膏。01:19Thats the finished production line there.那是我们所完成的生产线。01:25We got our first panel out on December third.并在12月3日生产出第一块墙板。01:27recycled:n.再生纸;回收站/adj.环境回收利用的;可循环再造的 manufacturing:adj.制造的;制造业的/n.制造业;工业/v.制造;生产(manufacture的ing形式)mixes:n.混淆;调拌料(mix的复数)/v.混合(mix的第三人称单数)That is the slurry being

two to threeyears.他们为了这个项目整整工作了两三年01:36And they are so excited.Thats the first board off the line.他们是如此兴奋。那是顺利下线的第一块墙板。01:38Our Vice President of Operation kissing the board.Obviouslyvery,very

cleanerand greener.凯文.苏拉切建议重新审视基本的建筑材料例如我们所熟悉的墙板以降低材料生产及建筑物建造过程中所产生的碳排放量。他介绍了一种由他在希尔利斯材料公司的团队所开发的清洁、可回收且高能效的新型墙体生态石(EcoRock)。We signed the first panel just a few weeks after that,had agreat signing
