Mark Spalding

Moni wochokera ku dzuŵa la Todos Santos, tauni yachiŵiri yaikulu kwambiri m’tauni ya La Paz, yomwe inakhazikitsidwa mu 1724. Lerolino ndi mudzi waung’ono umene umakhala ndi alendo zikwizikwi chaka chilichonse amene amasirira kamangidwe kake, kusangalala ndi chakudya chake chabwino, ndi kuyendayenda. magalasi ndi mashopu ena adalowa m'nyumba zake zotsika kwambiri. Pafupi ndi gombe la mchenga, pali mwayi wosambira, dzuwa, ndi kusambira.

Ndili pano chifukwa cha Gulu Lothandizira pa Biological DiversityMsonkhano wapachaka. Tasangalala ndi okamba nkhani komanso kukambirana kosangalatsa kokhudza nkhani zapadziko lonse zokhudza ubwino wa zomera ndi zinyama, komanso malo amene zimadalira. Dr. Exequiel Ezcurra anatsogolera msonkhano ndi nkhani yaikulu pa chakudya chathu chamadzulo chotsegulira. Iye ndi woyimira nthawi yayitali pazinthu zachilengedwe ndi chikhalidwe cha Baja California.

AYIKANI CHITHUNZI CHA MJS APA

Msonkhanowo unayambika m’bwalo la zisudzo la mbiri yakale lomwe lili pakatikati pa tawuniyi. Tidamva kuchokera kwa anthu angapo za zoyesayesa zokhazikitsa chitetezo cha malo amtunda ndi nyanja. Kris Tompkins wa ku Conservación Patagonica adalongosola zoyesayesa za bungwe lawo kuti akhazikitse malo osungirako zachilengedwe ku Chile ndi Argentina, ena mwa iwo kuyambira kumapiri a Andes mpaka kunyanja, ndikupereka nyumba zotetezeka za ma condor ndi ma penguin.

Chakumapeto kwa masana apitawa, tinamva kuchokera kwa akatswiri angapo za njira zomwe akugwira ntchito yopezera malo abwino kwa omenyera ufulu wa anthu omwe akugwira ntchito yoteteza midzi, kulimbikitsa mpweya wabwino ndi madzi, ndi kusunga zinthu zachilengedwe za mayiko awo. Omenyera ufulu wa anthu akuwukiridwa padziko lonse lapansi, ngakhale m'maiko omwe amawonedwa ngati otetezeka monga Canada ndi United States. Owonetserawa anapereka njira zosiyanasiyana zomwe tingapangire kukhala otetezeka kuteteza dziko lathu ndi madera omwe amadalira zinthu zachilengedwe zathanzi-ndiko kunena kuti, tonsefe.

Usiku watha, tinasonkhana pa gombe lokongola la Pacific Ocean, pafupifupi mphindi 20 kuchokera mtawuni. Zinali zodabwitsa komanso zovuta kukhala kumeneko. Kumbali ina gombe lamchenga ndi milu yake yotetezera imatambasula makilomita ambiri, ndipo mafunde amphamvu, kulowa kwa dzuwa ndi madzulo kunakokera ambiri a ife kumphepete mwa madzi ndi mantha. Kumbali ina, pamene ndinayang’ana uku ndi uku, sindinachite kanthu koma kuvala chipewa changa chochirikiza. Malo enieniwo anali atsopano—mwachionekere ntchito yobzalayo inangotsala pang’ono kuti tidye chakudya chathu chamadzulo. Amapangidwa kuti azithandiza anthu oyenda m'mphepete mwa nyanja (ndi zochitika ngati zathu), amakhala molunjika m'milunda yomwe idakonzedwa kuti ipeze njira zopita kugombe lotseguka. Ndi chipinda chachikulu chotseguka chomwe chili ndi dziwe lamphamvu, malo oimba nyimbo, malo ovina mowolowa manja, palapa yomwe inali yopitilira mapazi 40, malo opakidwa owonjezera okhalamo, komanso khitchini yonse ndi mabafa & shawa. Palibe kukayikira kuti kukanakhala kovuta kwambiri kugwirizanitsa opezeka pamisonkhano 130 kapena kuposerapo kumphepete mwa nyanja ndi nyanja popanda malo oterowo.

Ndipo komabe, malo akutali awa otukula zokopa alendo sadzakhala kwaokha kwa nthawi yayitali, ndikutsimikiza. Zikuoneka kuti ndi mbali ya zimene mtsogoleri wina wa m’deralo anazifotokoza kuti zikubwera “chitukuko” chimene nthawi zonse sichikhala chabwino. Alendo amene amabwera kudzasangalala ndi tauniyi, amakhalanso pano kudzasambira, kusambira, ndi dzuwa. Alendo ochuluka kwambiri ndi zomangamanga zosakonzekera bwino kuti akwaniritse zomwe akuyembekezera, ndipo machitidwe achilengedwe omwe amawakoka amakhala olemetsedwa. Ndilo mgwirizano pakati pa kulola kuti anthu ammudzi apindule ndi malo ake ndikuletsa kuti sikeloyo ikhale yaikulu kwambiri kuti phindu likhale lokhazikika pakapita nthawi.

Ndakhala ndikugwira ntchito ku Baja kwa zaka zoposa makumi atatu. Ndi malo okongola, amatsenga kumene chipululuchi chimakumana ndi nyanja mobwerezabwereza m'njira zodabwitsa, ndipo mumakhala mbalame, mileme, nsomba, anamgumi, ma dolphin, ndi mazana a madera ena, kuphatikizapo anthu. Ocean Foundation imanyadira kukhala ndi mapulojekiti khumi omwe amagwira ntchito kuteteza ndi kukonza maderawa. Ndine wokondwa kuti opereka ndalama ambiri omwe amasamalira maderawa adatha kudziwonera okha ngodya yaying'ono ya peninsula. Titha kuyembekeza kuti ali ndi kukumbukira kukongola kwachilengedwe ndi mbiri yakale yachikhalidwe, komanso, kuzindikira kwatsopano, kuti anthu ndi nyama amafunikira malo otetezeka, aukhondo, okhala ndi thanzi.
