Well, you all know about computer chips, but let's take a more mundane example.

嗯，你們都知道計算機芯片，但讓我們舉一個更平凡的例子。

Uh, cell phones back around 1980, I was in the House of Representatives and I was so excited to buy one of the very first mobile phones.

呃，手機早在1980年左右，我當時在眾議院，我非常興奮地買了一個最早的行動電話。

Honestly, I felt that thing was so cool.

說實話，我覺得那東西太酷了。

And now there are more mobile phones than there are people in the world, most of it in developing countries that had no landline telephone grid.

而現在，行動電話比世界上的人還多，其中大部分在沒有固定電話網的開發中國家。

And so they could leapfrog and get telephone service for the first time.

是以，他們可以跨越式發展，第一次獲得電話服務。

Well, guess what?

嗯，你猜怎麼著？

There are a lot of countries where the landline electricity grids are not so great in africa and the indian subcontinent.

在非洲和印度次大陸，有很多國家的固定電話電網不是很好。

Now we're seeing this instead, solar panels.

現在我們看到的是這個，而是太陽能電池板。

This one in africa is on the roof of a grass hut.

Parents want, their Children have access to the universe of information chilling a developing country, but it has great policy.

You talk about excitement.

你說到了興奮點。

This story gets me excited.

這個故事讓我很興奮。

At the end of 2013, they had 11 MW of solar by the end of 2014, more than 400 megawatts.

在2013年底，他們有11兆瓦的太陽能到2014年底，超過400兆瓦。

By the end of last year, more than 800 MW.

到去年年底，超過800兆瓦。

So look at what they have under construction this year and under contract to soon begin construction.

是以，看看他們今年有哪些正在施工的項目和即將開始施工的合同。

Yeah, yeah.

是的，是的。

Isn't that great?

這不是很好嗎？

I love that 13.3 GW.

我喜歡那個13.3 GW。

And there are other countries and many regions in the world that are poised for this kind of breakout, we are seeing a real turning here on a global basis.

世界上還有其他國家和許多地區準備進行這種突破，我們在全球範圍內看到一個真正的轉折。

The world gets more energy from the sun each hour than the entire global economy uses for an entire year.

If we increase the fraction of that that we harvest and use productively, then we can solve that part of the climate crisis.

如果我們增加我們收穫和生產性使用的部分，那麼我們可以解決氣候危機的這一部分。
