加利福尼亚州帝王县（Imperial County）拥有大量锂储量，正在更名为“锂谷”（Lithium Valley），这可能会改变其经济。 Imperial County, California, home to significant lithium reserves, is being rebranded as "Lithium Valley," potentially transforming its economy. 虽然清洁采掘方法有望为电动车辆提供无害生态的锂,但社区关注的焦点是环境风险和公平利润分配。 While the clean extraction method promises to yield eco-friendly lithium for electric vehicles, community concerns revolve around environmental risks and equitable profit distribution. 居民对过去开采持谨慎态度,主张获得与阿拉斯加常设基金类似的直接利益,以确保当地社区分享锂开采的经济收益。 Residents, wary from past exploitation, advocate for direct benefits similar to Alaska's Permanent Fund to ensure local communities share in the economic gains from lithium extraction.
