通过改变火灾后恢复的植被种类，我们真的可以改变碳积累的速度——这个认识非常有价值。”

And it's really valuable to recognize that by changing that type of vegetation that recovers after fire or we actually change the carbon accumulation rate.

认识到通过改变火灾后恢复的植被类型或者实际上改变了碳的积累速率是很有价值的。

Because the accumulation rate is so slow--- millions of times slower than the rate at which we now dig up this organic matter and burn it for energy--- we must consider fossil fuels as nonrenewable resources.

由于积累速度如此之慢——比我们现在挖掘这种有机物质并将其燃烧以获取能量的速度慢数百万倍——我们必须将化石燃料视为不可再生资源。
