Amagqabantshintshi ethu kuMyalelo weSigqeba malunga nokuJongana neNgxaki yeMozulu eKhaya nakwamanye amazwe

Ingeniswe kwi-NOAA nge-2 ka-Epreli 2021

Ukuphendula kuMyalelo weSigqeba wakutsha nje ngo Ukujongana neeNgxaki zeMozulu eKhaya nakumazwe angaphandle I-NOAA iyalelwe ukuba iqokelele iingcebiso malunga nendlela yokwenza ukuloba kunye nezixhobo ezikhuselweyo zikwazi ukumelana nokutshintsha kwemozulu, kubandakanywa utshintsho kumanyathelo olawulo kunye nokugcinwa, kunye nokuphuculwa kwesayensi, ukubeka iliso kunye nophando lwentsebenziswano.

Thina kwi-Ocean Foundation siyalamkela ithuba lokuphendula. I-Ocean Foundation kunye nabasebenzi bayo bangoku bebesebenza kwimiba yolwandle kunye nokutshintsha kwemozulu ukususela ngo-1990; kwi-Ocean Acidification ukususela ngo-2003; nakwimiba enxulumene “nekhabhoni ezuba” ukusukela ngo-2007.

I-Ocean-Climate Nexus isekwe kakuhle

Iziphumo zokwanda kokukhutshwa kwegesi yegreenhouse ibeka esichengeni indalo eselunxwemeni naselwandle ngotshintsho kubushushu bolwandle kunye nokunyibilika komkhenkce, nto leyo echaphazela imisinga yolwandle, imozulu, kunye nomphakamo wolwandle. Kwaye, ngenxa yokuba amandla olwandle okufunxa ikhabhoni agqithisiwe, sikwabona utshintsho lwemichiza yolwandle ngenxa yokukhutshwa kwekhabhoni yethu.

Utshintsho kwiqondo lobushushu, imisinga kunye nokunyuka komgangatho wolwandle, ekugqibeleni kuya kuchaphazela impilo yazo zonke iintlobo zezilwanyana zaselwandle, kunye nonxweme kunye ne-ecosystem enzulu yolwandle. Uninzi lwezityalo ziye zavela ukuze zikhule kuluhlu oluthile lobushushu, ikhemistri, kunye nobunzulu. Ngokuqinisekileyo, kwixesha elifutshane, luhlobo olungenako ukufuduka kwaye lufudukele kwiindawo ezipholileyo kuluhlu lwamanzi okanye kwiindawo ezipholileyo ezichaphazelekayo. Umzekelo, sele siphulukene nesiqingatha sayo yonke ikorale ngenxa yokufudumeza kwamanzi ebulala izilwanyana zokwakha iikorale zishiya amathambo amhlophe ngasemva, inkqubo eyaziwa ngokuba yi-coral bleaching, ekungazange kuviwe ngayo kwade kwangowe-1998. , njengee-pteropods ezisezantsi kwekhonkco lokutya, zisengozini yokutshintsha kwi-chemistry yolwandle.

Ulwandle luyinxalenye yenkqubo yemozulu yehlabathi kwaye ulwandle olusempilweni lubalulekile kwintlalontle yoluntu kunye nendalo eyohlukeneyo yehlabathi. Ukuqala, ivelisa ioksijini kwaye uninzi lotshintsho oluqhubekayo luya kuchaphazela inkqubo yolwandle. Amanzi olwandle, izilwanyana zaselwandle, kunye neendawo zokuhlala zaselwandle zonke zinceda ulwandle ukuba lufunxe inxalenye ebalulekileyo yekharbon diokside evela kwimisebenzi yabantu. Ukuze umntu aphile ngokuhamba kwexesha, kufuneka ezo nkqubo zibe sempilweni kwaye zisebenze kakuhle. Sifuna ulwandle ukulawula ubushushu beplanethi, ukuveliswa kweoksijini nge-photosynthesis ye-phytoplankton, ukutya njl.

Kuya kubakho iziphumo

Nazi Qoqosho izoyikiso ezineziphumo zexesha elifutshane kunye nexesha elide:

• Ukunyuka komgangatho wolwandle sele kwaye kuya kuqhubeka ukunciphisa amaxabiso epropathi, ukonakalisa iziseko zophuhliso, kunye nokwandisa ukuvezwa komngcipheko kubatyali-zimali
• Amaqondo obushushu kunye nokuphazamiseka kweekhemikhali emanzini kuhlengahlengisa ushishino lokuloba lwehlabathi, luchaphazela ubuninzi borhwebo kunye nezinye izitokhwe zeentlanzi kunye notshintsho lokuloba kwiindawo ezintsha.
• Ukuthumela ngenqanawa, imveliso yamandla, ukhenketho, kunye nokuloba kuya kuphazamiseka ngakumbi kukukhula okungalindelekanga kweendlela zemozulu, ukuphindaphindeka kwezaqhwithi kunye nobukhulu, kunye neemeko zendawo.

Ngoko ke, sikholelwa ukuba utshintsho lwemozulu luya kuguqula uqoqosho.

• Utshintsho lwemozulu lubeka isoyikiso ngokwenkqubo kwiimarike zezemali kunye noqoqosho
• Iindleko zokuthatha inyathelo lokunciphisa ukuphazamiseka kwabantu kwimozulu zincinci xa kuthelekiswa nomonakalo
• Kwaye, ngenxa yokuba utshintsho lwemozulu kwaye luya kuguqula uqoqosho kunye neemarike, iifemu ezivelisa ukuthomalalisa imozulu okanye izisombululo zohlengahlengiso ziya kugqwesa iimarike ezibanzi ekuhambeni kwexesha.

Ngoko, yintoni esifanele siyenze ukuze siphendule?

Kufuneka sicinge ngokudala imisebenzi enceda ulwandle, kwaye sinciphise imisebenzi eyonakalisa ulwandle (kunye noluntu lwasekuhlaleni apho lwenzeka khona loo misebenzi) kuba ngoyena mhlobo wethu omkhulu ekulweni nokutshintsha kwemozulu. Kwaye, ngenxa yokuba ukunciphisa ingozi kwandisa ukomelela.

Eyona njongo iphambili yokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwerhasi yegreenhouse (GHG) mayingafezeki nje kuphela, kodwa iphunyezwe ngokutshintshela kwelinye ilizwe. ngokulinganayo kunye nokusingqongileyo nje cwangcisa ukunciphisa ungcoliseko ngelixa uhlangabezana neemfuno zokutya, ezothutho kunye namandla ehlabathi. Njengoko uluntu luqhubela phambili ekunciphiseni utshintsho lwemozulu, kubalulekile ukwenza oko ngokweenqobo ezisesikweni, ngokunceda uluntu olusesichengeni kunye nokukhusela izilwanyana zasendle kunye ne-ecosystem.

Ukubuyisela impilo yolwandle kunye nobuninzi kuthetha imbuyekezo encomekayo yezoqoqosho KUNYE nokunciphisa utshintsho lwemozulu.

Kufuneka senze iinzame zoku:

• Ukwandisa imisebenzi yezoqoqosho encomekayo efana namandla ahlaziyekayo aselwandle, nto leyo edala imisebenzi kwaye ibonelele ngamandla acocekileyo.
• Ukunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwezithuthi ezisekelwe elwandle kunye nokubandakanya ubuchwepheshe obutsha ukwenza ukuthumela ngenqanawa kusebenze ngakumbi.
• Ukugcina nokubuyisela indalo engaselunxwemeni naselwandle ukuze kwandiswe intabalala nokwandisa ukugcinwa kwekhabhoni.
• Umgaqo-nkqubo ophuculweyo ophakamisa indima edlalwa yindalo yaselunxwemeni naselwandle njengezinki zekhabhoni zendalo, oko kukuthi ikhabhoni eblue.
• BUYISA kwaye UGCINE iindawo ezibalulekileyo eziselunxwemeni ezithatha kwaye zigcine ikharbhon, kuquka amadlelo engca yolwandle, amahlathi eengrove, kunye namadike etyuwa.

Oku kuthetha ukuba ulwandle lunako

1. Dlala indima enkulu ekunciphiseni ukukhutshwa kwe-CO2 ukuvala i-gap yokukhutshwa kwi-2 degree degree malunga ne-25% (Hoegh-Guldberg, O, et al, 2019), kwaye ngaloo ndlela unciphisa impembelelo yokutshintsha kwemozulu kulo lonke uluntu.
2. Ukubonelela ngamathuba obugcisa obutsha obuchulumancisayo, amacandelwana otyalo-mali, nokuzinzisa uqoqosho xa kukho utshintsho.

Siyidlala njani indima yethu:

I-Ocean Foundation yile:

• UKUBUYISELWA NOKULONDOLOZA iindawo ezibalulekileyo eziselunxwemeni kusetyenziswa iBlue Resilience Initiative yethu egxile kukhuseleko loluntu kunye nokomelela kwemozulu ngeziseko ezingundoqo zendalo.
• Ukuxhasa uphando lwezenzululwazi malunga nokusingqongileyo, uqoqosho, kunye neenzuzo zentlalo ze-blue carbon ecosystems (okt ingca yolwandle, iimangrove, kunye namagxobhozo etyuwa) ukuyila kunye nokwandisa iindlela zokuxhasa ngemali okusekwe kwimarike kunye ne-philanthropic.
• Ukulungelelanisa iindibano zoqeqesho kunye neminye imisebenzi yokufunda enxulumene nokubuyiselwa kunye nokugcinwa kwemithombo ye-blue carbon.
• Ukuxhasa uphando lwezenzululwazi nolwemizi-mveliso malunga nokusingqongileyo, ezoqoqosho, kunye neenzuzo zentlalo zokusebenzisa ukhula lwaselwandle njengemveliso yokuphucula ezolimo.
• Qalisa iimodeli ezintsha zoshishino lwenkxaso-mali esekwe kwimarike kunye ne-philanthropic ye-seaweed-based carbon offsetting ngokwakhiwa komhlaba kunye nezolimo ezihlaziyayo.
• Ukuphucula nokwandisa uhlolo lwezenzululwazi lotshintsho kwimichiza yolwandle, kunye nokutyhalela ukuziqhelanisa nokuthomalalisa ngeLinge lethu leInternational Ocean Acidification Initiative.
• Ukuxhasa ishumi leminyaka le-UN leSayensi yoLwandle kuPhuhliso oluZinzileyo ngokusebenzisa iqonga elisingathwe yi-Ocean Foundation eliza kulungelelanisa imisebenzi yenkxaso-mali ekuxhaseni iShumi leminyaka kuquka nentsha “EquiSea: The Ocean Science Fund for All.” I-EquiSea ijolise ekuphuculeni ukulingana kwisayensi yolwandle ngokusebenzisa ingxowa-mali ye-philanthropic ebonelela ngenkxaso yemali ngokuthe ngqo kwiiprojekthi, ukulungelelanisa imisebenzi yophuhliso lwamandla, kunye nokukhuthaza intsebenziswano kunye nokuxhaswa ngemali kwenzululwazi yolwandle phakathi kwezemfundo, urhulumente, i-NGO, kunye nabadlali becandelo labucala.

Malunga ne-Ocean Foundation

I-Ocean Foundation (TOF) yisiseko soluntu samazwe ngamazwe esekelwe eWashington DC, esekwe ngo-2003 kuphela Isiseko soluntu lolwandle, injongo yalo kukuxhasa, ukomeleza, kunye nokukhuthaza imibutho ezinikele ekubuyiseleni umva umkhwa wokutshatyalaliswa kokusingqongileyo kolwandle kwihlabathi liphela. I-TOF ibamba kwaye ixhase iiprojekthi ezingaphezu kwama-50 kwaye inabaxhasi kumazwe angaphezu kwama-40 kumazwekazi ama-6, igxile ekwakheni amandla, ukulondoloza iindawo zokuhlala, ukufunda nolwandle kunye nokukhusela iintlobo. Abasebenzi kunye neBhodi ye-TOF iquka abantu abanamava abalulekileyo kulondolozo lwaselwandle kunye nesisa. Ikwanayo nebhodi yeengcebiso yamazwe ngamazwe ekhulayo yeenzululwazi, abenzi bomgaqo-nkqubo, iingcali zemfundo, kunye nezinye iingcaphephe eziphezulu.
