Cocoapods error when trying to pod install Firebase- nanaimo

Question

I'm having some trouble with Cocoapods. Whenever I try to pod install on Terminal it starts loading and then gives me a huge error message. I'm trying to pod install Firebase/Storage to enable my XCode iOS app to communicate with Firebase's servers. Here is the error message terminal gives me when I try pod install. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

### Error
