Ukusebenzisana kwe-Healthy Ocean Systems

Uma uke wavuka ekuseni ukuze uzulazule ezindlini zemakethe yezinhlanzi, ungaqondana nomuzwa wami wokulindela okuholela ku-SeaWeb Seafood Summit. Imakethe yezinhlanzi iletha phezulu isampula yomhlaba ongaphansi kolwandle ongeke ukwazi ukuyibona nsuku zonke. Uyazi ukuthi amanye amagugu azokwembulwa kuwena. Ujabulela ukuhlukahluka kwezinhlobo zezilwane, ngasinye sinendawo yaso, kodwa ngokuhlangene sakha uhlelo oluhle kakhulu.

I-SeaWeb Seafood Summit yenze abonakala amandla eqoqo ngesonto eledlule e-Seattle, nabantu abacishe babe ngama-600 abazibophezele ekulondolozeni ukudla kwasolwandle behlangana ndawonye ukuze bacabange, bahlole, futhi benze amasu. Ithuba eliyingqayizivele lokuxhumana nababambiqhaza abahlukene - izimboni, amabhizinisi, ama-NGO, uhulumeni, izifundiswa, nabezindaba - baqoqe abakhona abavela emazweni angama-37. Kuxoxiwe ngezindaba ezisuka ochungechungeni lokuhlinzekwa kwempahla kuya ezinkambisweni zabathengi, kwaxhunywanwa, kwamiswa izinyathelo ezibalulekile ezilandelayo.

Mhlawumbe umlayezo omkhulu wokuyisa ekhaya kwakuwukuqhubeka nomkhuba obheke ekusebenzisaneni, ukukhuthaza ushintsho ngesilinganiso nangesivinini. Isihloko seshabhu yangaphambi kwengqungquthela, "ukubambisana kwangaphambi kokuncintisana," iyigugu lomqondo. Kalula nje, yilapho abancintisana nabo besebenzisana ukuze bakhuphule ukusebenza kwawo wonke umkhakha, bewuqhubezela ekusimameni ngesivinini esisheshayo. Iwumgqugquzeli wokuphumelela nokusungula izinto ezintsha, futhi ukuqaliswa kwayo kukhomba ekuvumeni okuhlakaniphile ukuthi asinaso isikhathi sokumosha.  

Ukusebenzisana kwangaphambi kokuncintisana kusetshenziswa ngempumelelo ezinseleleni zokuthola izitifiketi zokudoba, ukulawulwa kwezifo zezilwane zasemanzini, nokunye okuphakelayo, phakathi kwezinye izindawo. Izinkampani ezingaphezu kuka-50% emkhakheni wezinhlanzi ezifuywayo emhlabeni wonke sezisebenza ndawonye ngaphambi kokuncintisana ngeGlobal Salmon Initiative ukuze ziqhubekisele phambili imboni ekusimameni. Umkhakha wokusiza umphakathi udale iqembu labaFundisi Bezimali Bezilwandle Ezizinzile ukuze ligxile ngokuhlanganyela ezindabeni ezibalulekile ekusimameni kokudla kwasolwandle. Izinkampani eziyisishiyagalombili zezinhlanzi ezinkulu kakhulu emhlabeni sezisungule i-Seafood Business for Ocean Stewardship, okuyiqembu elisebenzisanayo elizibophezele ekubhekaneni nezidingongqangi eziphezulu zokusimama. Konke kumayelana nokusebenzisa izinsiza ezinomkhawulo ngobuhlakani; hhayi kuphela izinsiza zemvelo nezomnotho, kodwa nezinsiza zabantu.

Isikhulumi esiyisihluthulelo sokuvula, u-Kathleen McLaughlin, uMongameli we-Wal-Mart Foundation kanye nePhini Likamongameli Omkhulu & Isikhulu Esiyinhloko Sokusimama kwezitolo zakwa-Wal-Mart, sigqamise “izikhathi zokuchitheka kwamanzi” zokubambisana ezimbonini zokudoba nezimboni zezilwane zasemanzini kule minyaka engu-20 edlule. Uphinde wasungula ezinye zezinkinga zethu ezicindezela kakhulu eziqhubekela phambili: ukudoba okungekho emthethweni, okungabikwanga, nokungalawulwa (IUU), ukudoba ngokweqile, ukusebenza ngempoqo, ukuvikeleka kokudla, kanye nemfucumfucu evela ekudotshweni okungagunyaziwe nasekusetshenzweni kwayo. Kubalulekile ukuthi inqubekelaphambili iqhubeke, ikakhulukazi emsebenzini wezigqila kanye nokudoba nge-IUU.

Uma thina (inhlangano yomhlaba wonke yokusimamisa ukudla kwasolwandle) sicabangela intuthuko yakamuva enhle egqanyiswe engqungqutheleni, singakhomba izibonelo zoshintsho olusheshayo futhi sijabulisane ukuze sigcine unyawo lwethu sihlangene endaweni yegesi. Ukulandeleka embonini yezilwane zasolwandle cishe bekungekho kwaze kwaba cishe eminyakeni eyisithupha edlule, futhi sesivele siyasheshisa ukusuka ekulandeleleni (lapho kwabanjwa khona) kuya obala (indlela okwabanjwa ngayo). Inani lamaProjekthi Okuthuthukisa Imboni Yezokudoba (FIPs) seliphindeke ngaphezu kokuthathu kusukela ngo-2012. Ngemva kweminyaka eminingi yezihloko ezingezinhle ngendlela efanele mayelana nezimboni zokulima ama-salmon nezimfanzi, izenzo zabo zibe ngcono futhi zizoqhubeka nokuba ngcono uma ingcindezi iqhubeka. 

Njengephesenti lokudotshwa komhlaba wonke kanye nokukhiqizwa kwezilwane zasemanzini emhlabeni wonke, sisenamanzi amaningi okufanele sihlanganise nawo ukuletha abanye embuthanweni wokusimama. Nokho, izifunda ekade zisilele emuva ziyakhula. Futhi ukushiya isixuku "sebhizinisi njengenjwayelo" sisodwa akuyona inketho lapho kunegunya eliphuthumayo lokulungisa iplanethi, lapho abalingisi ababi kakhulu behlisa isithunzi sawo wonke umkhakha, futhi lapho abathengi abaningi ngokwengeziwe behlanganisa imvelo yabo, inhlalo. , kanye nezinto ezibalulekile zempilo ngokuthenga kwazo (e-US, abathengi abangu-62%, futhi le nombolo iphakeme nakakhulu kwezinye izingxenye zomhlaba).

Njengoba u-Kathleen McLaughlin abonisa, enye yezinto ezibaluleke kakhulu eziqhubekela phambili yikhono labaholi abaphambili ukusheshisa ukushintsha kwengqondo nokuziphatha. U-Avrim Lazar, “umxhumanisi wezenhlalo” osebenza neqoqo lamaqembu ahlukahlukene emikhakheni eminingi, ukuqinisekisile ukuthi abantu bagxile kakhulu emphakathini njengoba nathi siqhudelana, nokuthi isidingo sobuholi sibiza isimilo esigxile emphakathini. Ngikholelwa ukuthi ukwanda okulinganiselwe kokubambisana kweqiniso kusekela umbono wakhe. Kufanele kusinike isizathu sokuthemba ukuthi wonke umuntu uzolithatha igxathu eliya ekubeni yingxenye yeqembu eliwinile - leli elisekela uhlelo olukhulu, oluhle kakhulu lapho zonke izingxenye zilingana.
