TOF na-eme ka ndị isi gọọmenti mara mmata n'ihe egwu zuru ụwa ọnụ nke Ocean Acidification na-ebute

WASHINGTON, DC, January 8, 2020 - Iji mee akara ụbọchị nke abụọ nke International Ocean Acidification Day of Action, The Ocean Foundation (TOF), na mmekorita ya na Embassy nke New Zealand, kwadoro nzukọ nke ndị nnọchiteanya gọọmentị iji kpalie omume na ịkele mba na obodo ndị merela nkwa iji dozie ihe ịma aka zuru ụwa ọnụ nke oké osimiri acidification. Ụbọchị nke omume mere na 8th nke January na-anọchi anya 8.1, ugbu a pH larịị nke anyị oké osimiri.

N'oge ihe omume ahụ, TOF wepụtara Akwụkwọ ntuziaka Acidification Ocean Maka ndị na-eme amụma, akụkọ zuru oke gbasara iwu acidification oké osimiri na ọkwa mba ụwa, mpaghara, mba na nke mba. Dị ka onye ọrụ mmemme nke TOF, Alexis Valauri-Orton si kwuo, "ebumnobi bụ ịnye ndebiri amụma na ihe atụ nke ga-enyere ndị na-eme iwu aka ịgbanwe echiche ka ọ bụrụ omume." Dị ka Valauri-Orton na-ekwu, “site n'ime omimi ruo na omimi nke mbara ala anyị na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, kemistri nke oké osimiri na-agbanwe ngwa ngwa karịa mgbe ọ bụla n'akụkọ ihe mere eme nke ụwa. Ọ bụ ezie na mgbanwe a na kemistri - nke a maara dị ka ocean acidification (OA) - nwere ike ịbụ ihe a na-adịghị ahụ anya, mmetụta ya abụghị." N'ezie, oké osimiri ugbu a 30% karịa acidic taa karịa ka ọ dị afọ 200 gara aga, ọ na-agbakwa ngwa ngwa karịa oge ọ bụla n'akụkọ ihe mere eme nke ụwa.¹

N'ịghọta na nsogbu a zuru ụwa ọnụ na-achọ ihe omume zuru ụwa ọnụ, TOF malitere mbụ International OA Day of Action na Ụlọ nke Sweden na January 2019.

Onye ọbịa nke afọ a, New Zealand, na-eje ozi dị ka onye ndu nke Commonwealth's Blue Charter Action Group on Ocean Acidification, ma tinye ego n'ịwulite nkwụsi ike na OA na Pacific Islands. Onye na-ekwu okwu ọbịa nke egosipụtara, Jatziri Pando, bụ onye isi ndị ọrụ nke kọmitii na gburugburu ebe obibi, ihe ndị sitere n'okike, na mgbanwe ihu igwe na Senate Mexico. Kọmiti ahụ na-arụkọ ọrụ na TOF iji chepụta usoro iwu mba maka ịmụ na ịzaghachi OA na Mexico.

OA na-etinye ihe iyi egwu ugbu a maka ike azụmahịa nke wii wii zuru ụwa ọnụ (ịkụ azụ, azụ azụ na ndụ mmiri ndị ọzọ maka nri), na, n'ime ogologo oge, ntọala nke usoro nri mmiri dum site na mmetụta ya na-agbawa obi na shell- akpụ ntule.
