UMthetho weZilwanyana eziseMngciphekweni we-Pacific Bluefin Tuna

Ulawulo lukaTrump lukhanyela uKhuselo loMthetho wePacific Bluefin Tuna eMngciphekweni woKutshabalala

Emva kokuncipha kwepesenti ezingama-97, iintlobo zezilwanyana zijongana nokutshabalala ngaphandle koncedo

ISAN FRANCISCO- Ulawulo lukaTrump namhlanje sikhabile isicelo ukukhusela ityhuna yePacific esengozini phantsi koMthetho weZilwanyana eziseMngciphekweni. Esi silwanyana sinamandla, sithengisa amaxabiso aphezulu kwiifandesi zeentlanzi eJapan, siye salotywa yaya kutsho ngaphantsi kwesi-3 ekhulwini sabemi balo bamandulo. Nangona iNkonzo yeSizwe yokuLoba eLwandle yabhengezwa ngo-Okthobha 2016 ukuba ibicinga ngokudwelisa i-Pacific bluefin, igqibe ngoku ukuba ukhuseleko aluqinisekiswanga. 

“Ukuba imivuzo yabaphathi bezokuloba kunye namagosa amanyeneyo ibibotshelelwa kwimeko yesi sidalwa simangalisayo, bebeya kwenza into elungileyo,” watsho uCarl Safina, umongameli weZiko leSafina kunye nososayensi nombhali oye wasebenza ukutsala ingqalelo yoluntu. kwingxaki ye tuna ibluefin. 

IJapan, iSouth Korea, iMexico, iUnited States kunye namanye amazwe aye asilela ukunciphisa ukuloba ngokwaneleyo ukuze kukhuselwe ezi zilwanyana zibalaseleyo, into yodidi kwiimenyu zesushi. Olunye uphononongo lwamva nje yafumanisa ukuba ibluefin kunye nezinye izinto ezinkulu zaselwandle zisengozini ngakumbi kwisiganeko sangoku sokuphela kobunzima; ilahleko yabo iya kuphazamisa uthungelwano lokutya kolwandle ngeendlela ezingazange zibonwe ngaphambili, kwaye bafuna ukhuseleko olungakumbi ukuze baphile.    

“Ituna yePacific bluefin iya kuphumela ekubhangisweni ngaphandle kokuba siyazikhusela. I-Endangered Species Act iyasebenza, kodwa hayi xa ulawulo lukaTrump lungahoyi usizi lwezilwanyana ezifuna uncedo, utshilo uCatherine Kilduff, igqwetha leZiko leBiological Diversity. “Esi sigqibo sidanisayo senza ukuba kubaluleke ngakumbi kubathengi nakwiindawo zokutyela I-browcott bluefin ide iphinde iphile.”  

NgoJuni ka-2016 abakhalazi bacela ukuba iNkonzo yezokuLoba ikhusele ityhuna ye-Pacific bluefin njengoko isengozini. Umdibaniso ubandakanya iZiko leZintlu zezinto eziphilayo, i-Ocean Foundation, i-Earthjustice, iZiko loKhuseleko lokutya, abaKhuseli bezilwanyana zasendle, iGreenpeace, iMission Blue, i-Recirculating Farms Coalition, i-Safina Centre, iSandyHook SeaLife Foundation, i-Sierra Club, i-Turtle Island Restoration Network kunye ne-WildEarth. AbaGcini, kunye nomthengisi wezilwanyana zaselwandle ezizinzileyo uJim Chambers.
"Imfazwe yolawulo lukaTrump kulwandle isandula ukusungula esinye isiqhushumbisi sesandla - esikhawulezisa ukucinywa kwetyhuna e-bluefin emanzini ase-US kwaye ekugqibeleni yonakalisa uluntu olulobayo kunye nokutya kwethu," utshilo uTodd Steiner, isazi ngebhayoloji kunye nomlawuli olawulayo weTurtle Island Restoration Network. .

Phantse yonke ityhuna yePacific bluefin evunwayo namhlanje iyabanjwa ngaphambi kokuba ivelise kwakhona, ibeka amathandabuzo ikamva lazo njengezidalwa. Iiklasi nje ezimbalwa zabantu abadala zePacific bluefin ityhuna zikhona, kwaye ezi ziza kunyamalala kungekudala ngenxa yobudala. Ngaphandle kweentlanzi ezincinci ukuba zivuthwe kwisitokhwe sokuzalisa ukuze zithathe indawo yabantu abadala abalupheleyo, ikamva limfiliba kwiPacific bluefin ngaphandle kokuba kuthatyathwe amanyathelo akhawulezileyo ukumisa oku kwehla.

“Endaweni yokubhiyozela ityhuna ye-Pacific bluefin ngenxa yendima yayo encomekayo nebalulekileyo elwandle, abantu baloba ngokulusizi de baphele ukuze bazibeke kwisitya sesidlo sangokuhlwa,” utshilo uBrett Garling weMission Blue. “Kulusizi kakhulu ukuba le gastro-fetish iphanga ulwandle olunye lwezona ntlobo zalo zibalaseleyo. Ngoku lixesha lokuba uvuke kwaye uqonde ukuba ityhuna ixabisa ngakumbi ukuqubha elwandle kunesosi yesoya epleyitini.

“Siphakathi kwengxaki yokutshabalala, kwaye ulawulo lukaTrump, ngendlela eqhelekileyo yokuchasana nokusingqongileyo, awenzi nto,” utshilo uTaylor Jones, ummeli wezilwanyana ezisemngciphekweni weWildEarth Guardian. “Ituna ibluefin yenye yeentlobo ezininzi zezinto eziya kubandezeleka okanye eziya kuthi shwaka ngenxa yokuba olu lawulo luchasa ulondolozo lwendalo.”

“Ngesigqibo sanamhlanje, urhulumente wase-US ulishiyele ikamva letuna ye-Pacific bluefin kubaphathi bokuloba abarekhodi labo libi liquka isicwangciso 'sokwakha kwakhona' nge-0.1 yeepesenti kuphela ithuba lokubuyisela abantu kumanqanaba asempilweni," utshilo uShana Miller, ingcali ityhuna. kwi-Ocean Foundation. "I-US kufuneka ixhase ukhuseleko olwandisiweyo lwePasifiki bluefin kwinqanaba lamazwe ngamazwe, okanye ukumiswa kokurhweba ngokuloba kunye nokuvalwa korhwebo lwamazwe ngamazwe inokuba kuphela kwendlela eseleyo yokusindisa olu hlobo."

Iziko leBiological Diversity lilizwe, umbutho wolondolozo olungenzi nzuzo onamalungu angaphezu kwesigidi esi-1.3 kunye namatsha ntliziyo akwi-intanethi azinikele ekukhuseleni izilwanyana ezisengozini kunye neendawo zasendle.
