INzululwazi yaseLwandle iyinyani (Inxalenye yesiBini yesiBini)

Kwi-yam ukuvula ibhlog ka-2021, Ndabeka uluhlu lwemisebenzi yolondolozo lolwandle ngo-2021. Olo luhlu lwaqala ngokubandakanya wonke umntu ngokulinganayo. Ngeliphandle, yinjongo yawo wonke umsebenzi wethu ngalo lonke ixesha kwaye ibiyingqwalasela yebhlog yam yokuqala yonyaka. Okwesibini ukwenza kugxininise kuluvo lokuba "inzululwazi yaselwandle iyinyani." Le yibhlog yesibini yenzululwazi yaselwandle, apho sigxile kulwakhiwo lwentsebenziswano.

Njengoko ndiphawulile kwiCandelo loku-1 lale nto blog, isayensi yolwandle yinxalenye yokwenyani yomsebenzi wethu kwi-Ocean Foundation. Ulwandle lugubungela ngaphezulu kwe-71% yesijikelezi-langa, kwaye akufuneki ugrumbe kude kakhulu ukuze ufumanise ukuba singakanani na esingakhange siphonononge, asiqondi, kwaye kufuneka sazi ukuphucula ubudlelwane boluntu kunye neplanethi yethu. inkqubo yokuxhasa ubomi. Kukho amanyathelo alula angafuni nkcazelo eyongezelelekileyo—ukulindela iziphumo zayo yonke imisebenzi yethu yenye yazo kwaye ukuyeka ingozi eyaziwayo yenye. Kwangaxeshanye, kukho imfuneko enzulu yokuthatha inyathelo lokunciphisa umonakalo kunye nokuphucula okulungileyo, isenzo ekufuneka sixhaswe ngamandla amakhulu okuqhuba isayensi kwihlabathi liphela.

The Inyathelo leInternational Ocean Acidification yasekwa ukwenzela ukuba izazinzulu kumazwe aselunxwemeni naseziqithini zikwazi ukubeka iliso kwimichiza yolwandle eguqukayo yelizwe labo nokwazisa imigaqo-nkqubo yokunciphisa iziphumo ezibi zolwandle oluneasidi ngakumbi. Le nkqubo ibandakanya uqeqesho ekubekeni iliso kwikhemistri yolwandle koosonzululwazi abancinci kunye nemfundo yabaqulunqi bomgaqo-nkqubo malunga nekhemistri yolwandle kunye nendlela ukutshintsha ikhemistri yolwandle kunokuchaphazela ngayo iindawo abahlala kuzo. Le nkqubo ikwazama ukubonelela ngezixhobo ezifunekayo zokuqokelela nokuhlalutya iisampulu zamanzi kwabo bawadingayo. Isixhobo sokuhlola ikhemistri yolwandle enentsha, kodwa ilula, inokulungiswa, ilungiswe, kwaye isetyenziswe kungakhathaliseki uzinzo lombane okanye ukufikelela kwi-intanethi. Ngelixa idatha inokwabelwana ngayo kwihlabathi jikelele ngeGlobal Ocean Acidification Observing Network (GOA-ON), sifuna ukuqinisekisa ukuba idatha iqokelelwa lula kwaye isetyenziswa lula kwilizwe lemvelaphi. Imigaqo-nkqubo elungileyo yokujongana nemiba ye-asidi yonxweme kufuneka iqale ngenzululwazi elungileyo.

Ukuqhubela phambili injongo yokwakhiwa kwesakhono sesayensi yolwandle kwihlabathi liphela, i-Ocean Foundation iye yasungula ngokubambisana I-EquiSea: INgxowa-mali yeNzululwazi yoLwandle lwabantu bonke. I-EquiSea liqonga eliyilwe ngokubambisana ngengxoxo esekelwe kwimvumelwano yabathathi-nxaxheba kunye nezazinzulu ezingaphezu kwama-200 ezivela kwihlabathi jikelele. I-EquiSea ijolise ekuphuculeni ubulungisa kwisayensi yolwandle ngokuseka ingxowa-mali yokunceda abantu ukuze ibonelele ngenkxaso yemali ngokuthe ngqo kwiiprojekthi, ukulungelelanisa imisebenzi yophuhliso lwamakhono, ukukhuthaza intsebenziswano kunye nokuxhasa ngemali inzululwazi yolwandle phakathi kwabezemfundo, urhulumente, iiNGOs, kunye nabadlali becandelo labucala, kunye nokuxhasa uphuhliso lwetekhnoloji yenzululwazi yolwandle ebiza ixabiso eliphantsi kwaye kulula ukuyigcina. Kuyinxalenye yomsebenzi ophambili kunye nobaluleke kakhulu kuqala: Ukuquka wonke umntu ngokulinganayo.

Sichulumancile kakhulu malunga nokubanakho kwe-EquiSeas ukunyusa umthamo wenzululwazi yaselwandle apho kungekho nto yaneleyo, ukwandisa ukuqonda kwethu ulwandlekazi lwehlabathi kunye nobomi obungaphakathi, kwaye senze inzululwazi yaselwandle ibe yinyani kuyo yonke indawo. 

I-UN Agenda 2030 icela zonke iintlanga ukuba zibe ngamagosa angcono kwiplanethi yethu kunye nabantu bethu kwaye ichonge uluhlu lweeNjongo zoPhuhliso oluZinzileyo (SDGs) ukuba zisebenze njengemilinganiselo yokuzalisekisa loo ajenda. SDG 14 inikezelwe kulwandle lwethu lwehlabathi apho zonke izinto eziphilayo emhlabeni zixhomekeke kulo. Isanda kuqaliswa Ishumi leminyaka le-UN leNzululwazi yoLwandle kuPhuhliso oluZinzileyot (Iminyaka elishumi) imele ukuzinikela ekuqinisekiseni ukuba amazwe atyala imali kwisayensi esiyifunayo ukuze senze izigqibo ezinolwazi ukuzalisekisa i-SDG 14.  

Okwangoku, amandla enzululwazi yolwandle asasazwa ngokulinganayo kuwo wonke amalwandle, kwaye anqongophele kakhulu kwimimandla eselunxwemeni kumazwe angaphuhliswanga kangako. Ukufezekisa uphuhliso loqoqosho oluluhlaza oluzinzileyo kufuna ukwabiwa ngokulinganayo komthamo wenzululwazi yolwandle kunye neenzame ezilungelelanisiweyo ukusuka kwisikali sabahlanganisi bamazwe ngamazwe ukuya koorhulumente belizwe ukuya kumaziko ngamanye kunye nee-NGO. IQela loCwangciso lweSigqeba seminyaka elishumi lenze isikhokelo esomeleleyo nesibandakanyayo ngokusebenzisa inkqubo yothethathethwano olubanzi lwabachaphazelekayo.

Ukuze esi sikhokelo sisebenze, amaqela amaninzi kufuneka abandakanyeke, kwaye inkxaso-mali ebalulekileyo kufuneka ihlanganiswe. I IKomishoni yoBuchule beLwandle kunye noMfelandawonye weMinyaka eliShumi badlala indima ebalulekileyo ekubandakanyweni koorhulumente namaqumrhu amakhulu, nasekusekeni iinjongo zenzululwazi neenkqubo zeMinyaka eliShumi.

Kukho umsantsa, nangona kunjalo, ekuboneleleni ngenkxaso ngokuthe ngqo kumaqela asezantsi kwiindawo ezinezibonelelo ezincinci - imimandla apho ukwandiswa kwamandla enzululwazi yolwandle kubaluleke kakhulu ekuphumezeni uphuhliso loqoqosho oluzinzileyo oluluhlaza. Amaziko amaninzi kwimimandla enjalo aswele iziseko zophuhliso zokubandakanya ngokuthe ngqo kwiinkqubo ezisemthethweni ze-UN kwaye ngoko ke akanakukwazi ukufikelela kwinkxaso eqhutywa ngokuthe ngqo kwi-IOC okanye ezinye ii-arhente. Inkxaso eguquguqukayo, ekhawulezayo iya kufuneka ukuze ezi ntlobo zamaziko zixhase iShumi leminyaka, kwaye ishumi leminyaka alinakuphumelela ukuba amaqela anjalo awabandakanyekanga. Njengenxalenye yomsebenzi wethu oya phambili, i-Ocean Foundation iza kuxhasa iinzame zokuvala ezo zikhewu zenkxaso-mali, ukuphucula utyalo-mali ekujoliswe kulo, kunye nokuxhasa isayensi ebandakanyayo kunye nentsebenziswano kuyilo lweprojekthi kunye nokusetyenziswa.
