Ibhalwe nguMark J. Spalding

Sonke siyingxenye yohlelo olukhulu, oluyinkimbinkimbi, kodwa olungapheli. Ulwandle luwumgogodla wezinhlelo zokusekela ukuphila koMhlaba ezisinikeza umoya, ukudla, amandla nezinye izidingo, kanye nokuzijabulisa, ukuzijabulisa kanye nogqozi.

Zonke izinkinga zolwandle zingenziwa lula zehlele emicabangweni emibili eyisisekelo: Ukusetshenziswa ngokweqile kwezinsiza nokusebenzisa kabi izinsiza.

Ngezixazululo ezimbili ezilula ngokulinganayo (futhi ezisobala): Gcina Izinsiza; futhi Vikela Impilo - abantu nolwandle - ngokuvimbela ukuhlukunyezwa. Emhlabeni jikelele, isintu kuthanda phishekela izixazululo - kahle, ngamandla ngeso lekusasa, noma, mhlawumbe ngokungenakugwenywa, ngokuqhubekayo lapho izinkinga zisondela.

Onyakeni odlule siye sacacisa indlela esikhuluma ngayo ngento esihlale siyenza, futhi sizoqhubeka nokwandisa: Yiba umholi ocabangayo ohlinzeka ngobuchwepheshe namathuluzi afanele ukusekela umkhakha wezokongiwa kwasolwandle. Lokhu “Ubuholi Olwandle” yikho okugxilwe kulo kulo nyaka umbiko Wonyaka (ukulanda okungenakuxhumana: Umbiko wonyaka we-2012).

Kwa-The Ocean Foundation, sikholelwa ekusekeleni izixazululo, ukulandelela umonakalo, nokufundisa noma ubani ongaba yingxenye yesixazululo manje—empeleni ngamunye wethu.

Umgomo wethu usalokhu usekela, ukuqinisa, nokukhuthaza lezo zinhlangano ezizinikele ekubuyiseleni umkhuba wokucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zolwandle emhlabeni jikelele. Futhi, sihlala sijabule ngokuthi i-TOF ikhiqiza imiphumela emihle ehlobene nomsebenzi nge

▪ Ubuholi Basolwandle: Sihlinzeka ngezeluleko ze-pro bono, ukugqugquzelwa kwemihlangano, ukubamba ishabhu kanye nocwaningo olusezingeni eliphezulu oluhloselwe ukuhambisa inaliti ngokuqondile nangokungaqondile ekulondolozweni kolwandle.
▪ Ukunikezwa Kwemali: Sikholelwa ukuthi sixhasa ngezimali ezihamba phambili nezigqama kakhulu emazwekazini ayisikhombisa ngokusungula izinto ezintsha nokubambisana
▪ Ukubonisana: Sigxila ezisombululweni zasolwandle ngezeluleko zohlelo lwethu lwezibonelelo kubaxhasi, ukujulisa umthamo wezinhlangano ezingenzi nzuzo, izindlela ezintsha zomkhakha ozimele (isb. i-Rockefeller Ocean Strategy), nokubamba iqhaza emihlanganweni yamazwe ngamazwe, izingxoxo, nezinkundla zokucobelelana ngolwazi.
 Ezokuxhumana: Amabhulogi ethu abhalwe ababhali abahlukahlukene kanye nokulungiswa kabusha kwethu iwebhusayithi bathola ukudunyiswa okusabalele
▪ Uxhaso lwezimali lwamaphrojekthi: Sihlinzeka ngokusekela inqwaba yemibono emihle ngohlaka lwezinqubo ezingcono kunezingcono kakhulu, ezinye zazo ezigqanyisiwe kulo mbiko wonyaka.

Isidingo/isidingo “semakethe” semizamo yokongiwa kolwandle sikhulu futhi siyakhula. Ithola ukunakwa okwengeziwe kanye nezinsiza. Njengoba umnotho uqina, sihlela ukukhula nawo. Simi ngomumo futhi simi ngomumo.
Jabulela lokhu umbiko. Bheka okwethu iwebhusayithi. Silandele Facebook futhi Twitter. Joyina umphakathi we-TOF ekwenzeni ubudlelwano bethu nezilwandle bube ngcono kakhulu kithi sonke.

Olwandle,
