A Danish biotechnology company is studying enzymes found in a remote Greenland fjord it says could help tackle climate change.
一丹麥的生物技術公司正在研究在遙遠格陵蘭峽灣發現的酶，它說能幫助應對氣候變化。
Copenhagen-based Novozymes is working in the Ikka Bay region of South Greenland, where the rare mineral Ikait has been found to be able to support life at very cold temperatures.
哥本哈根基地的諾維信正在格陵蘭島南部的Ikka灣地區工作，那裡的稀有礦產 Ikait已被發現，能夠在極冷的溫度支持生命。
If their scientists can crack the genetic code of the Ikait’s enzymes, they believe they could use them to make a new cold-water washing powder.
如果他們的科學家能破譯Ikait的酶的遺傳密碼，他們相信他們可用它們去做一個新的冷水洗衣粉。
This could potentially save millions of tonnes in carbon emissions by removing the need for hot water to launder clothes.
這有可能慳回數百萬公噸的碳排放量，以消除需要用熱水清洗衣服。
Novozymes says the technology would save up to 18m tonnes in CO2 in a year across Europe - equivalent to taking 4-5 million cars off the road.
諾維信說，技術會在歐洲每年節省高達 1,800萬公噸的二氧化碳 - 相當於取走4-5百萬架車離開馬路。
