shift blue
I-COVID-19 isinike ukuphumla ukuze siqinisekise ukuba siyakwazi ukuzikhathalela thina, abantu esibathandayo, kunye nabo bathwaxwa ziziphumo ezibi zobhubhane. Lixesha lokubonisa uvelwano novelwano kwabo balufuna kakhulu. Iplanethi ayikho enye into - xa umsebenzi wethu wezoqoqosho ulungele ukuqalisa kwakhona, singenza njani ukuba ishishini liqhubeke ngaphandle kwezenzo ezitshabalalisayo eziya kuthi ekugqibeleni zenzakalise abantu kunye nokusingqongileyo ngokufanayo? Ukwakha ngokutsha uqoqosho lwethu ukuze sivumele utshintsho kwimisebenzi emitsha nesempilweni yeyona ndlela ilungileyo kuthi sonke.
Kubalulekile, ngoku kunanini na ngaphambili, ukugxila kwimpilo yolwandle nokusebenzisa oku nqumama kumsebenzi wehlabathi jikelele njengethuba lokwazisa, ukuthatha uxanduva lomntu ngamnye, kunye nokukhuthaza izisombululo zokuvuselela ukukhula koqoqosho olunenkathalo.
IBlue Shift lukhwelo lwehlabathi lonke kwisenzo esigxile kwindlela uluntu olungabuyisela ngayo uqoqosho, emva kwe-COVID-19, ngendlela egxile kwimpilo yolwandle kunye nokuzinza, kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuba ulwandle luyafumaneka kwizizukulwana ezizayo. Ukuze siziphathe ngcono kwixesha elizayo, sifuna izenzo ezinesibindi sokubeka ulwandle kwindlela yokubuyisela kunye nokuxhasa izinto eziphambili kwi-UN yeshumi leNzululwazi yoLwandle.

Ishumi Leminyaka
Impumelelo ye Ishumi leminyaka le-UN leNzululwazi yoLwandle kuPhuhliso oluZinzileyo (2021-2030) kuxhomekeke kwisakhono sethu sokuvuselela iintelekelelo, ukudibanisa izixhobo kunye nokwenza ubambiswano esiludingayo lujike ukufunyaniswa kwenzululwazi kube yisenzo. Sinethemba lokudala ubunini beMinyaka elishumi ngokubonelela ngamathuba okwenene abantu ukuba bazibandakanye kunye nokukhuthaza izisombululo ezizuzisa ulwandle noluntu.
Iintlanzi kunye noKhuseleko lokutya
Intlanzi ngowona mthombo weprotheyini kubantu abamalunga nebhiliyoni e-1 kwihlabathi liphela kwaye imele inxalenye ebalulekileyo yokutya kwabaninzi. Ngexesha lokuqhambuka kwe-COVID-19, imithetho yokhuseleko yehlabathi inyanzelise iinqanawa zokuloba ukuba zihlale ezibukweni, namazibuko amaninzi kufuneka avale ngokupheleleyo. Oku kube nesiphumo sokuncipha komsebenzi wokuloba elwandle kwaye kuthintele abalobi ekubeni bathengise imveliso yabo. Idatha yesathelayithi kunye nemigqaliselo ibonisa ukuba umsebenzi uphantsi ukuya kuthi ga kwi-80 pesenti kweminye imimandla. Iimpembelelo zinokuthetha ukuba isitokhwe sentlanzi esesichengeni sinethuba lokubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo, kodwa kuya kubakho iziphumo ezibi kwezoqoqosho kubalobi abasesichengeni. Ukuqinisekisa indima yolwandle kukhuseleko lokutya kwihlabathi kufuneka sisebenzise eli thuba ukuqonda iziphumo zonqumamo ukuze isitokhwe silawuleke ngcono/ngokufanelekileyo ukuya phambili.
Ukuphazamiseka kwengxolo phantsi kwamanzi
Uphononongo lucebisa ukuba ungcoliseko lwengxolo lungonakalisa iminenga ngokuthe ngqo ngokonakalisa iindlebe zabo, kwaye kwiimeko ezigqithisileyo, kubangele ukopha kwangaphakathi nokufa. Amanqanaba ongcoliseko lwengxolo engaphantsi kwamanzi evela kwiinqanawa ehlile ngexesha lokuvalwa kwe-COVID-19, enika ikhefu kwiminenga kunye nobunye ubomi baselwandle. Ukujongwa kwe-Acoustic kubunzulu be-3,000 yeemitha, kubonise ukwehla kwingxolo eqhelekileyo yeveki (ukususela kuJan-Aprili 2020) ye-1.5 decibels, okanye malunga nokuhla kwamandla nge-15%. Oku kuhla kubalulekileyo kwingxolo yeenqanawa zesantya esisezantsi akukaze kubonwe ngaphambili kwaye kuya kubaluleka ukufundisisa ukuze uqonde ngcono isiphumo esilungileyo esinciphisa ingxolo yendawo kubomi baselwandle.
Ungcoliseko lwePlastiki
Nangona kukho ukuncipha okumangalisayo kwemisebenzi yoqoqosho lwehlabathi ngexesha lokuqhambuka kwe-COVID-19, inkunkuma yeplastiki iqhubekile nokunyuka. Uninzi lwezixhobo zokuzikhusela ezisetyenziswa ngabasebenzi bezempilo kunye noluntu ngokubanzi, iimaski kunye neegloves, ezisetyenziswayo zenziwe ngeplastiki, kwaye uninzi lwayo ilahlwa ngezithintelo ezimbalwa. Ekugqibeleni ezi mveliso ziphelela elwandle zibangela iimpembelelo ezininzi ezimbi. Ngelishwa, uxinzelelo lokuvelisa ezi mveliso zexesha elinye zibangela ukuba abezomthetho bathathele ingqalelo ukunqumama okanye ukulibaziseka ekuphunyezweni kwemithetho yeengxowa, ukusetyenziswa kweplastiki enye, kunye nokunye ngexesha lobhubhani wehlabathi. Oku kuya kwenza kuphela imeko esele inobungozi kulwandlekazi. Ngoko ke kubaluleke kakhulu kunakuqala ukuqaphela ukusetyenziswa kweplastiki yomntu ngamnye kunye nokunyusa iinkqubo zokurisayikilisha.
Ijenome yoLwandle
I-genome yolwandle sisiseko apho zonke ii-ecosystems zaselwandle kunye nokusebenza kwazo ziphumle, kwaye ngumthombo otyebileyo we-anti-viral compounds. Ngexesha lokuqhambuka kwe-COVID-19, ukonyuka okumangalisayo kwemfuno yovavanyo kutsalele umdla owongeziweyo kwizisombululo ezinokuthi zifunyanwe kwiyantlukwano yemfuza yolwandle. Ngokukodwa, ii-enzymes ezisuka kwiibhaktheriya ze-hydrothermal vent zibe yinxalenye ebalulekileyo yetekhnoloji esetyenziswa kwiikiti zovavanyo lwentsholongwane, kubandakanya nezo zisetyenziselwa ukufumanisa i-COVID-19. Kodwa i-genome yolwandle iyonakaliswa kukuxhatshazwa ngokugqithisileyo, ukulahleka kwendawo yokuhlala kunye nokuwohloka, kunye nabanye abaqhubi. Ukuqonda kunye nokugcina le "genome yolwandle" kubalulekile kungekuphela nje ekomelezeni kweentlobo kunye ne-ecosystem, kodwa nakwimpilo yabantu kunye noqoqosho. Amanyathelo olondolozo axhomekeke ekukhuseleni ubuncinane ama-30 epesenti yolwandle kwiindawo ezikhuselweyo zaselwandle eziphunyeziweyo nezikhuselwe ngokupheleleyo okanye ezikhuselwe kakhulu (iiMPAs).

I-REV Ocean & TOF Intsebenziswano
I-REV Ocean & TOF iqalise intsebenziswano enika umdla eya kugxila ekusebenziseni inqanawa yophando ye-REV ukufumana izisombululo kwiingxaki zolwandlekazi zehlabathi, ngakumbi kwinkalo ye-Ocean Acidification kunye nongcoliseko lweplastiki. Kananjalo siza kusebenzisana ngokubambisana kumalinge okuxhasa i-Alliance ye-UN yeminyaka elishumi ye-Ocean Science kuPhuhliso oluZinzileyo (2021-2030).
“Ukubuyisela ulwandle olusempilweni noluyintabalala yolwandle kuyimfuneko, akunyanzelekanga—imfuno iqala ngeoksijini eveliswa lulwandle (ayinaxabiso) kwaye ibandakanya amakhulukhulu eemveliso neenkonzo ezongeziweyo.”

Ukuloba kwihlabathi lonke ngexesha le-COVID-19
Njengoko amazwe kwihlabathi liphela ekhupha iiodolo zokuhlala ekhaya kwaye ubomi bemihla ngemihla busiya buphela, iziphumo ziye zahluka kwaye zininzi, kwaye icandelo lezokuloba linjalo.
