Lumnandi Usuku Lomhlaba!

Usuku lomhlaba ngoMvulo, ngo-Epreli 22nd

Ekuqaleni kwale nyanga, ndifike ekhaya ndinemincili ngezinto endizibonileyo nendizivileyo Inkqubo yoLondolozo lwaseLwandle lweCGBD Intlanganiso yoNyaka ePortland, eOregon. Ngaphezu kweentsuku ezintathu, seva ngabantu abaninzi aboyikeka kwaye safumana ithuba lokuthetha neqela loogxa nabo abatyala imali kwabo basebenza nzima ukukhusela iilwandle zethu. Umxholo wawusithi "Uluntu oludlamkileyo kunye neeLwandle ezipholileyo ecaleni kwePasifiki Rim: Ukujongwa kwiiProjekthi eziMpumelelo zoLondolozo ezisebenzisa iziSombululo eziNtsha zokutshintsha iHlabathi."

Zivela phi ke ezo ziSombululo zeInnovative?

Kwiphaneli yokuqala kwiindlela ezintsha zokunxibelelana ngemiba yolwandle, uYannick Beaudoin, ovela kwi-UNEP GRID Arendal wathetha. Sisebenzisana nekhampasi yeGRID Arendal eBlue Carbon ngeprojekthi yethu Izisombululo zemozulu eBlue, kunye nomntu wethu owayesakuba ngumsebenzi we-TOF, uGqr. Steven Lutz.

Kwiphaneli yesibini yoLawulo lokuLoba okuKhasayo, uCynthia Mayoral weRARE uthethe “I-Loretanos yolwandle oluzele bubomi: ulawulo lokuloba oluzinzileyo eLoreto Bay, eMexico,” eyayixhaswa ngemali yi-TOF's Loreto Bay Foundation.

Kwiphaneli yesithathu yokuSebenza kunye nabaManyano abahlukeneyo, enye yeenkokeli zeprojekthi ye-TOF uGqr Hoyt Peckham, wathetha ngeprojekthi yakhe entsha ebizwa ngokuba I-SmartFish egxile ekuncedeni abalobi ukuba bafumane ixabiso elithe kratya leentlanzi zabo, ngokuziphatha ngononophelo olukhulu, ukuze zisasazwe kwiimarike ezikhawulezayo, ukuze bafune ixabiso eliphezulu, kwaye ke kufuneka babambise ezimbalwa kuzo.

Kwiphaneli yesihlanu kwizixhobo ezitsha kunye nezixhobo kushishino lokuloba, u-Alison Fairbrother okhokela umxhasi we-TOF kawonke wonke Iprojekthi yeTrasti uthethe ngoxanduva lokuphendula, ukungafihli, kunye nokungabikho kwemfezeko awayifumanisa ngelixa wayesenza iprojekthi yobuntatheli ephandayo kwi-menhaden, intlanzi encinci kodwa ebalulekileyo yefula (kunye ne-algae edla) kwi-Atlantiki.

Kwiphaneli yesithandathu, "Indlela iSayensi ePhembelela ngayo uLondolozo kunye noMgaqo-nkqubo," izithethi ezibini kwezithathu yayiziintloko zeeprojekthi ezixhaswa ngemali ye-TOF: Hoyt (kwakhona) malunga Proyecto Caguama, kunye noGqr. Steven Swartz kwi INkqubo yeSayensi yeLaguna San Ignacio. Isithethi sesithathu, uGqr Herb Raffaele we-USFWS wathetha nge-Western Hemisphere Migratory Species Initiative apho ngoku sikhonza njengosihlalo weKomiti yeeNdawo ezifudukayo zaseLwandle.

Ngentsasa yangoLwesihlanu, seva 100-1000 Buyisela kuNxweme lweAlabama amaqabane eprojekthi uBethany Kraft we-Ocean Conservancy kunye noCyn Sarthou we-Gulf Restoration Network, esizisa kumhla malunga nobunzima benkqubo esithemba ngayo sonke ukuba iya kukhokelela kwiintlawulo ze-oyile ze-BP ezichithwe kwiiprojekthi zokubuyisela zokwenene, ezijonge phambili kwi-Gulf. .

Le ntlanganiso iphinde yaqinisekisa ukuzingca kwam, kunye nombulelo, ngomsebenzi wethu, iziphumo zawo kunye nokuqatshelwa okusifaneleyo kweenkokeli zeprojekthi kunye namahlakani ethu. Kwaye, kuninzi lweenkcazo-ntetho, sinikwe ithemba lokuba kukho iindawo apho uluntu lolondolozo lwaselwandle luqhubela phambili kulo njongo ibaluleke kakhulu yokuphucula impilo yolwandle.

Kwaye, iindaba ezimnandi zezokuba kuninzi okuzayo!
