Usuku Lomhlaba lungoMsombuluko, Ephreli 22nd

Ekuqaleni kwale nyanga, ngafika ekhaya ngijabule ngalokho engangikubonile nengakuzwa embukisweni Uhlelo lweCGBD Marine Conservation Programme Umhlangano Waminyaka Yonke ePortland, Oregon. Ezinsukwini ezintathu, sezwa ngabantu abaningi abesabekayo futhi saba nethuba lokukhuluma nedlanzana lozakwethu nabo abafaka imali kulabo abasebenza kanzima ukuze bavikele izilwandle zethu. Indikimba ibithi “Imiphakathi Enyakazayo kanye Nolwandle Olupholile Olugudle I-Pacific Rim: Ukubheka Imiklamo Ephumelelayo Yokongiwa Kwemvelo esebenzisa Izixazululo Ezintsha Zokushintsha Umhlaba.”

Pho zavelaphi lezo Innovative Solutions?

Kuphaneli yokuqala yezindlela ezintsha zokuxhumana ngezinkinga zolwandle, u-Yannick Beaudoin, ovela ku-UNEP GRID Arendal ukhulume. Sisebenzisana nekhampasi ye-GRID Arendal eseBlue Carbon ngephrojekthi yethu Blue Climate Solutions, kanye nomsebenzi wethu wangaphambili we-TOF, uDkt. Steven Lutz.

Kuphaneli lesibili elimayelana nokuphatha i-Small Scale Fisheries, uCynthia Mayor we-RARE ukhulume “I-Loretanos yolwandle olugcwele impilo: ukuphathwa kokudoba okusimeme e-Loreto Bay, Mexico,” ebixhaswe yi-TOF's Loreto Bay Foundation.

Eqenjini lesithathu le-Working With Diverse Allies, omunye wabaholi bephrojekthi ye-TOF uDkt. Hoyt Peckham, ukhulume ngephrojekthi yakhe entsha ebizwa ngokuthi. I-SmartFish okugxile ekusizeni abadobi ukuthi bathole inani elithe xaxa lezinhlanzi zabo, ngokuziphatha ngokucophelela, ukuze zisakazwe ezimakethe eziseduze, ukuze bafune amanani entengo aphezulu, futhi ngaleyo ndlela badinga ukubamba ezimbalwa zazo.

Kuphaneli yesihlanu yezinsiza ezintsha namathuluzi kwezokudoba, u-Alison Fairbrother ophethe umnikezeli we-TOF Public Trust Project wakhuluma ngokuziphendulela, ukwenza izinto obala, kanye nokuntuleka kobuqotho akutholile ngenkathi enza iphrojekthi yobuntatheli obuphenyayo e-menhaden, inhlanzi encane kodwa ebalulekile edla ukudla okudliwayo (kanye nezidla ulwelwe) e-Atlantic.

Kuphaneli yesithupha, “Indlela Isayensi Ithonya Ngayo Ukulondolozwa Nenqubomgomo,” izikhulumi ezimbili kwezintathu zaziyizinhloko zamaphrojekthi axhaswe yi-TOF ngokwezimali: Hoyt (futhi) mayelana Proyecto Caguama, kanye noDkt. Steven Swartz ku ILaguna San Ignacio Uhlelo lweSayensi Yezemvelo. Isikhulumi sesithathu, uDkt. Herb Raffaele we-USFWS ukhulume nge-Western Hemisphere Migratory Species Initiative lapho sisebenza khona njengamanje njengosihlalo weKomidi Lezilwane Ezifudukayo Zasolwandle.

NgoLwesihlanu ekuseni, sezwa ngo 100-1000 Buyisela Ogwini Alabama ozakwethu bephrojekthi u-Bethany Kraft we-Ocean Conservancy kanye noCyn Sarthou we-Gulf Restoration Network, basezisa ngemininingwane eyinkimbinkimbi yenqubo sonke esithemba ngobuqotho ukuthi izoholela ekusetshenzisweni kwenhlawulo kawoyela we-BP kumaphrojekthi angempela, abheke phambili okubuyisela eGulf. .

Lo mhlangano ukuqinisekisile ukuziqhenya kwami, nokubonga kwami, ngomsebenzi wethu, imiphumela yawo kanye nokuqashelwa okufanele kwabaholi bethu bephrojekthi kanye nozakwethu. Futhi, kwezethulo eziningi, sinikezwe ithemba lokuthi kunezindawo lapho umphakathi wokulondoloza imvelo olwandle wenza inqubekelaphambili kulowo mgomo obaluleke kakhulu wokuthuthukisa impilo yasolwandle.

Futhi, izindaba ezinhle ukuthi kuseza!
