Of course, in a few other countries (Qatar, Algeria, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, and Russia), gas also accounts for more than half – or even more than 60% – of energy consumption. But there is an enormous difference: all of these countries have reserves that will last another 70-100 years.
当然，在某些别的国家（卡塔尔、阿尔及利亚、阿联酋、伊朗和俄罗斯），天然气也占据能源消费的一半甚至六成以上。但它们的情况与阿根廷有着绝大不同：它们无不拥有至少够用70—100年的储量。而阿根廷作为高度依赖天然气的国家，其储量却在日渐减少，大概只相当于八年的产量。
