英國碳市場?在英國今年的聖誕節大餐中，火雞這道傳統美食可能要缺席了天然氣價格上漲導緻二氧化碳供應短缺，而火雞屠宰過程中需要用到二氧化碳，因此如果二氧化碳持續短缺，不僅聖誕節吃不到火雞，其他家禽、肉類和碳酸飲料的供應都可能受到影響，今天小編就來聊一聊關于英國碳市場?接下來我們就一起去研究一下吧!

英國碳市場

在英國今年的聖誕節大餐中，火雞這道傳統美食可能要缺席了。天然氣價格上漲導緻二氧化碳供應短缺，而火雞屠宰過程中需要用到二氧化碳，因此如果二氧化碳持續短缺，不僅聖誕節吃不到火雞，其他家禽、肉類和碳酸飲料的供應都可能受到影響。

The traditional British Christmas dinner could be missing its centrepiece this year if a shortage of Carbon dioxide (CO2) caused by surging natural gas prices persists, leading turkey farmer Paul Kelly told Reuters on Tuesday.

火雞養殖大戶保羅·凱利上周二（9月21日）告訴路透社稱，如果天然氣價格上漲導緻的二氧化碳供應短缺持續下去，今年英國傳統聖誕大餐的主菜可能要缺席了。

Kelly, who hatches 2 million of his own breed KellyBronze birds a year, accounting for 27% of all turkeys sold at Christmas, said CO2 was used in the slaughter process and more importantly to keep the product fresh.

凱利自有的凱利青銅火雞品種每年要孵出200萬隻火雞，占據了聖誕火雞市場份額的27%。凱利說，火雞屠宰過程尤其是産品保鮮都需要用到二氧化碳。

"Carbon dioxide is used to extend shelf life, so when you put a turkey in a bag, you suck the air out and you blow carbon dioxide in and that stops the bugs growing, " he said.

他說：“二氧化碳的使用可延長保質期，我們把火雞放入包裝袋後，會抽掉包裝袋中的空氣再灌進二氧化碳，避免細菌滋生。”

"We can't create millions and millions of turkeys all in the week before Christmas, it has to be spread over a few weeks so if (CO2 production) really wasn't back up and running, it would be another car crash."

“我們無法趕在聖誕節前的一周内生産出數百萬隻火雞成品，而是需要幾周時間，所以如果二氧化碳生産不恢複，将會是災難性的打擊。”

The shortage of CO2 will hit meat processing in a matter of days if supplies do not come back online, the industry has warned, which would then make the alternatives of a joint of beef or a goose also hard to find.

該行業警告稱，如果二氧化碳供應問題不解決，幾天後肉類加工業就會受影響，牛肉、鵝肉等肉制品也将難以買到。

A gin and tonic could also be off the menu, with the carbonated drinks industry facing the same issue.

加奎甯水的杜松子酒也将會從菜單上消失，碳酸飲料業也會面臨同樣的難題。

Later on Tuesday, Britain struck a deal with CF Industries for the US company to restart the production of CO2. The gas is a byproduct of the fertiliser it produces at two plants in northern England and the company had halted operations due to the soaring price of gas.

上周二晚些時候，英國和美國CF工業公司達成協議重啟二氧化碳的生産。二氧化碳是該公司在英格蘭北部的兩家工廠生産化肥的副産品，先前由于天然氣價格飛漲，該公司已經讓工廠停工。

The news will come as a relief to Kelly, who said the problem could be solved pretty quickly.

這個消息能讓凱利松一口氣，他表示問題應該能很快解決。

"The production facilities are there, it's just about turning it on again, and paying the gas bill," he said.

他說：“生産設施都還在，隻要重新啟動機器，支付天然氣賬單就可以了。”
