Njengoko Inyanga yeeLwandle Isondela esiphelweni

Umhla we-8 kweyeSilimela ibiluSuku lweeLwandle lweHlabathi, uMongameli wabhengeza uJuni njengosuku INyanga yeeLwandle zeSizwe kwaye uninzi lubonakala ngathi lugqibe ekubeni lolo lube lumzamo wehlabathi jikelele, oluthatha iNyanga yeeLwandle zeHlabathi kaJuni. Ngokuqinisekileyo ndivakalelwa kukuba ndiye ndantywiliselwa kwiziganeko zaselwandle kwaye ndonwabile ukugcina umfutho uqhubeka.

Ekuqaleni kwenyanga, ndandiseTodos Santos, eBaja California Sur, eMexico, nolwandle lwam oluninzi. osebenza nabo ngemali kwintlanganiso yonyaka yabaxhasi ngezimali abatyala imali kwizityalo nezilwanyana ezohlukeneyo kwihlabathi jikelele. Malunga ne-130 yethu yachitha iintsuku ezine sixoxa ngemiba eyahlukahlukeneyo njengokhuseleko lobuqu lwabantu abasebenza kwimiba yolondolozo ukuya ezintabeni ukuya kumsebenzi wokukhusela isikali somhlaba wolwandle wemibutho efana neConservacion Patagonica eChile naseArgentina.

Kwiveki elandelayo ibiyiCapitol Hill Oceans Week (CHOW), umsitho wonyaka owenziwa yi Isiseko seNational Marine Sanctuary ukuba, phakathi kwezinye izinto, kubandakanya igala yangokuhlwa ebhiyozela abantu abakhokela imiba yolwandle. Igumbi lihlala ligcwele amaqhawe olwandle-ukusuka kwivolontiya ye-14 yonyaka abakhethiweyo ukuya kuDkt Sylvia Earle ukuya kwi-Aquanauts-kwaye kukho amabhaso onyaka. Sive intetho emnandi yokwamkelwa evela kuRobyn Walters, u Ingcwele yeVolontiya loNyaka. Ivolontiya e Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary ukusukela ngo-2010, uRobyn “ubeyi-asethi exabiseke kakhulu, esebenza kwiindima ezininzi ezahlukeneyo njengevolontiya: umhlohli woluntu, inkokeli yemisebenzi yezemfundo yeqela lesikolo, idocent yeziko labatyeleli, umququzeleli wentlanganiso, ummeli wendawo engcwele kwimisitho yokufikelela eluntwini, isithethi kunye nomthathi-nxaxheba kuhambo lohambo lokubukela iminenga, umqeqeshi wamavolontiya, kunye nomncedisi kulawulo.”

UBill Ruckelshaus kunye noNorman Mineta babelane ngembasa yeLifetime Achievement (ophumeleleyo ngo-2011 yayingusihlalo weBhodi eseka i-TOF uWolcott Henry). La madoda mabini asebenza njengoosihlalo beJoint Oceans Commission Initiative. Umyalezo wabo wamacala amabini wokuzinikezela kunye nokuzimisela egameni lolwandle olusempilweni wema wahluke ngokupheleleyo kuhlobo lwengxoxo-mpikiswano ebilawula iindaba zamva nje. Okumangalisayo yokuzonwabisa kwaboniswa udliwano ndlebe lwabo.

Ibhaso lokugqibela likwabhiyozele indoda enophawu olucingisisiweyo kunye neendlela ezineenkalo ezininzi kwimingeni esijongene nayo. USenator uCarl Levin waseMichigan, intshatsheli yeThunder Bay Marine Sanctuary, ufumene Imbasa yobuNkokheli yowama-2014.

Iiseshini ze-CHOW zagubungela uluhlu lwemiba kwaye zibonise iqela labahlobo bethu kunye noogxa bethu. Ndisebenze kwiphaneli yexesha lesidlo sasemini kunye nelungu leBhodi ye-NMSF uDawn Martin kunye noHeather Ludemann, iGosa leNkqubo, iPackard Foundation ukuxoxa ngendima yesiseko senkxaso kulondolozo lolwandle. Ilungu leBhodi yabaCebisi be-TOF uBarton Seaver ubeyinxalenye yeseshoni ngekamva labalobi baseMelika. UBarton ngumpheki kwaye usebenza njengoMlawuli weNkqubo yeNkqubo yoKutya okuMpilo kunye nokuZinzileyo kwiZiko leMpilo kunye neGlobal Environment, ehlala kwiSikolo saseHarvard seMpilo yoLuntu. USophia Mendelsohn, iNtloko yoZinzo kwi-JetBlue Airways uthethe ngentsebenziswano ye-TOF kunye ne-JetBlue njengenxalenye yephaneli ethi "UkuCinga kwakhona ishishini njengesiqhelo kuLwandle."

NgoJuni 16 nangoJuni 17, saphinda santywila kwimiba yolwandle, ngeli xesha sigxile kwizisombululo kumlinganiselo wehlabathi. Unobhala uJohn Kerry kunye neSebe leLizwe lase-US bahlanganise "Ulwandle lwethu” inkomfa ebihlanganise abantu abamalunga nama-500, kuquka iintloko zamazwe, abaphathiswa bekhabhinethi, izazinzulu, iinkokeli zoshishino nabameli beeNGO. Kwisithuba seentsuku ezimbini, le nkomfa ibigxile kwimixholo emithathu engundoqo: ukufakwa kweasidi yolwandle, ushishino lokuloba oluzinzileyo kunye nongcoliseko lolwandle. Amalungu amaninzi oluntu lwe-Ocean Foundation ayezimase. UGrantee kunye nogxa wakhe uPhilippe Cousteau we-Earth Echo International ubeke ithoni ngamagqabaza akhe okuvula. I-TOF's Hoyt Peckham yeprojekthi yethu ebanjwe I-SmartFish, wathetha ngokusombulula ukubanjiswa kofudo lwaselwandle eJapan, eMexico naseHawaii ngophando oluthatha inxaxheba ngexesha lesisombululo sephaneli yeSustainable Fisheries.

Njengenxalenye yephaneli yokwenziwa kweasidi yolwandle, ndinikwe ithuba lokuba ndibhengeze ingxowa-mali yethu entsha: “Abahlobo beGlobal Ocean Acidification Monitoring Network” ukunceda uluntu ukuba luqinisekise ukuba siyayazi apho kwenzeka khona iasidi yolwandle kwaye xa inyuka, ukuze iziphumo zayo zibonakale. inokwenziwa ngcono, iqondwe, kwaye emva koko ijongwe. Kwakhona ndafumana ithuba lokusebenzisana noSophia Mendelson, kwakhona, kwiseshoni yokuqhawula emva kwemini yokugqibela ephinde yagqamisa intsebenziswano yethu kunye neJetBlue ukusebenza kwi-debris yolwandle kwiCaribbean.

Kwakukho iziphumo ezininzi ezintle ezivela kwinkomfa: UMongameli Obama ubhengeze ukwanda okukhulu kweendawo ezikhuselweyo kumanzi ommandla wase-US; UMongameli uTong waseKiribati wabhengeza ukuba ukuloba ngorhwebo kuya kuvalwa kwilizwe lakhe Indawo ekhuselweyo yeZiqithi zasePhoenix; Kwaye inani lamaqumrhu ahlukeneyo abhengeze izibophelelo ezintsha tyala imali kwimpilo yolwandle.

NgoJuni 19th incwadi entsha enomxholo othi “O Mar no Futuro de Portugal: Ciência e Visão Estratégica” (Ulwandle lwasePortugal kwikamva: Inzululwazi nombono wobuchule) yakhululwa eLisbon, eyayiquka isahluko sam esithi “Indima yePortugal kwiLisbon. ikamva lentsebenziswano yeTrans-Atlantic ne-US. "

Ngomhla wama-24 kuJuni, i IKhomishini yeeLwandle zeHlabathi ibhengeze iziphumo zayo emva kweenyanga ezili-18 zokufunda ulwandle lwehlabathi kunye nemfuno yalo. I-Co-Chair by José María Figueres, owayenguMongameli waseCosta Rica, iKhomishoni yadalwa ukuba iqulunqe iingcebiso zezopolitiko kunye nobuchwepheshe obunokwenzeka ixesha elifutshane, eliphakathi kunye nexesha elide ukujongana nemiba emine ephambili ejongene nolwandle oluphezulu:
▪ ukuloba ngokugqithisileyo
▪ Ilahleko enkulu yendawo yokuhlala neentlobo ngeentlobo zezinto eziphilayo
▪ Ukungabikho kolawulo olusebenzayo nonyanzeliso
▪ Ukusilela kulawulo lolwandle oluphezulu

Kumsitho owawukwiHolo yoLwandle lweMyuziyam yaseMelika yeMbali yeNdalo I New York, sihlanganisene ukuze sive malunga nengxelo yokugqibela yeKomishoni yoLwandlekazi lweHlabathi kunye nezindululo. Iforamu yesithathu yonyaka yePlastiki yenzeke eNew York ngosuku olulandelayo. IForam yePlastiki isekelwe kwingcamango yokuba “nyaka ngamnye iitoni zeplastiki ezingama-280 ezigidi ziveliswa ehlabathini lonke, ukanti uqikelelo lubonisa ukuba li-10 ekhulwini kuphela nyaka ngamnye elenziwa ngokutsha. Ukubamba le nkunkuma kunika ithuba elibalulekileyo nelingekasetyenziswa, njengoko kusenziwa ngokutsha ukupakishwa, kunye nenkqubo yokucinga malunga nokudalwa kwenkunkuma. " IForam yePlastiki inikezela ngeembono kwaye ivula iingxoxo malunga nendlela yokusebenzisa le nto ngeendlela ezintsha, zombini "phambi" kunye "nokuthumela" ukusetyenziswa kwabathengi. Le ngxoxo ibaluleke kakhulu xa kuziwa kumngeni wokunciphisa inkunkuma yaselwandle kunye nengxaki ekhulayo yeeplastiki elwandle.

Inyanga yolwandle ayanelanga. Apha kwi-Ocean Foundation, sikholelwa ukuba yonke imihla kufuneka ibe lusuku esizenzela ulwandle okuthile. Sijoyine ekuxhaseni abo banikela imihla yabo kwimpilo yolwandle.
