Now the first two solutions that I've talked to you about are pretty well agreed.
现在我和你讨论的前两个解决方案是一致同意的。
The third one, innovative fire management, is somewhat more controversial, but I think it offers huge potential to address and solve the wildfire problem.
第三个是消防管理的创新，争议较大，但我认为它为应对和解决野火问题提供了巨大的潜力。
What we need is innovation and technology that can rapidly detect and assess fire and then quickly put it out when it gets bad.
我们需要的是创新和技术，能够快速探测和评估火灾，然后在火势严重时迅速扑灭。
And here, speed is paramount, because when you're in the worst kind of fire days -- these are the hottest, driest and windiest fire days -- if you can't bring fire management resources to a fire very quickly, then it is likely that you won't be able to contain that fire.
在这里，速度至关重要，因为当你正处于火灾最严重的日子里——这些是最热、最干燥、风最大的火灾日——如果你不能很快将消防管理资源带到火场，那么你很可能无法控制火势。
Here we need to look at the example of the Quick Reaction Force of Southern California, which is really designed in some ways for these toughest days.
这里我们需要看一下南加州快速反应部队的例子，它在某些方面确实是为这些最艰难的日子而设计的。
The QRF is a public-private partnership, which now has three Chinook helicopters.
快速反应部队是一个公私合作伙伴关系，现在拥有三架支奴干直升机。
These are the big ones with the two rotors on the top.
这些直升机顶部有两个水平旋翼。
And each of them can drop up to 3000 gallons of water on a fire, day or night, and they can do it very precisely.
每个直升机可以向火中喷射 3000 加仑的水，无论昼夜，他们都可以非常精确地做到这一点。
They can also refill up to six times an hour so they can bring a lot of mass to the problem.
它们每小时最多可补充六次所以他们可以给火灾问题带来很大的改善。
Over the course of two years of demonstrations, the QRF has demonstrated that this model has great potential, that, in fact, if you can bring a lot of fire management resource to a fire very quickly, you can get on top of fires before they get big and unmanageable.
在两年的演示过程中，快速反应部队证明了该模型具有巨大的潜力，事实上，如果你能很快地把大量的火灾管理资源带到火灾现场，你就能在火灾变得更大、更难以控制之前控制住它。
And this opens up an exciting potential future.
这打开了一个令人兴奋的潜在未来。
Imagine this model with a series of larger drone vehicles distributed across the landscape in higher-fire-risk areas.
想象一下，在这个模型中，一系列更大的无人机分布在火灾风险更高的地区。
Imagine these vehicles positioned periodically along utility lines or in areas of higher fire-risk deep in the forest.
想象一下，这些车辆定期部署在公用线路沿线或森林深处火灾风险较高的地区。
Such a distributed network, if connected to the right sensor system, could offer a future in which we are able to really put out fires on the worst fire days, and even in remote communities.
这样一个分布式网络，如果连接到正确的传感器系统，可以提供这样的一个未来：我们能够在最严重的火灾天，甚至在偏远的社区，真正扑灭火灾。
Companies like Rain and Joby Aviation are working on this vision today.
Rain 和 Joby Aviation 等公司目前正在努力实现这一愿景。
The sensor system will also be very important for the resolution of this problem.
传感器系统对于解决这一问题也将是非常重要的。
The system -- which will entail both ground-based, aerial and space-based platforms -- won't be important just because we're going to be able to see and detect fire where and when it pops up, but also because it'll enable us to differentiate between good and bad fire, low-intensity fire and high-intensity fire,
这个系统非常重要——包括地面、空中和太空平台——不仅因为它能让我们看到火灾的发生地点、探测到火灾的发生时间，还因为它能让我们区分好火和坏火，低强度火和高强度火，
which is very important because we need more lower-intensity fire on the landscape to rejuvenate our forests, just as much as we need to know where and when fire risk is becoming higher intensity.
而我们需要更多的低强度火来恢复森林，就像我们需要知道火灾风险何时何地变得更高一样。
Fire is a prism through which we can see the future of humanity's relationship with natural systems.
火灾是一面棱镜，通过它我们可以看到未来人类与自然系统的关系。
Working together and supported by technology, we can build a world in which communities are resilient to wildfire and in which forests are brought back into a healthy balance.
通过共同努力，在技术的支持下，我们可以建设一个世界，里面的社区能够抵御野火，里面的森林能恢复健康的平衡。
Ultimately, we can build a future, in which we don't just manage fire to protect human life and property, but also to protect the biosphere for global carbon emissions and for biodiversity.
最终，我们可以建立一个未来，在这个未来中，我们不仅可以通过管理火灾来保护人类的生命和财产，还可以保护全球碳排放和生物多样性的生物圈。
Ultimately, we need to become the crew of Spaceship Earth.
最终，我们需要成为地球号宇宙飞船的船员。
So let's get to work.
那么让我们开始工作吧。
Let's learn from fire and let's build a resilient, sustainable future.
让我们从火灾中学习，建立一个有弹性的、可持续的未来。
Thank you.
谢谢。
