The problem of plastic waste is a global concern. One statistic states that nearly one million plastic bottles are sold every minute. Carrying our own water bottles is a solution, but with drinking fountains few and far between in our cities, where can we refill them?
塑膠廢棄物是全球關注的問題。一項統計數字稱每分鐘有將近一百萬個塑膠瓶售出。隨身自備水瓶是一個解決方法，但由於我們城市裡的飲水機寥寥無幾，我們可以到哪裡再去裝水呢？
According to Dimitri Nassisi, the answer has been right there all along. Nassisi is a recent graduate from a design school in Renens, Switzerland, where he was doing research on drinking fountains. He discovered that not only does Renens have a high number of fire hydrants, but they all use drinkable water. This gave him an idea.
根據迪米崔．納西的看法，答案一直就在那裡。納西最近剛從瑞士勒南的一所設計學院畢業，他在那裡進行飲水機的研究。他發現勒南不僅有大量的消防栓，而且全都使用可飲用的水。這給了他一個想法。
He set about constructing the Drinking Hydrant, an eye-catching blue fire hydrant that doubles as a drinking fountain. People can use it to fill their bottles with water and firefighters can attach hoses to it. There’s even a small bowl at the bottom for dogs to lap up water. The Drinking Hydrant is currently in the prototype stage, but Nassisi hopes to bring it to cities worldwide.
他開始打造「消防飲水機」，這是一個兼作飲水機，外觀吸睛的藍色消防栓。人們可以用它來把水瓶裝滿水，而且消防員可以把水管接在消防飲水機上。底部甚至有一個小碗可以讓狗舔水喝。「消防飲水機」目前在原型階段，但納西希望能把它推廣到世界各地的城市。。
