Indlela Yokunciphisa I-Carbon Footprint Yakho Emotweni

Ngezinye izinsuku, kuzwakala sengathi isikhathi esiningi sichitha ezimotweni— siya noma sibuya emsebenzini, sigijima ithuna, sishayela ama-carpool, sithatha uhambo, ukusho lokho. Nakuba lokhu kungase kube kuhle ku-karaoke yemoto ethile, ukushaya umgwaqo kuza ngentengo ekhuphukayo yemvelo. Izimoto zinomthelela omkhulu ekushintsheni kwesimo sezulu emhlabeni wonke, zikhipha cishe amakhilogremu angu-20 egesi ebamba ukushisa emkhathini ngegalani ngalinye likaphethiloli elishile. Eqinisweni, izimoto, izithuthuthu, namaloli zenza cishe i-1/5th yakho konke ukukhishwa kwe-CO2 yase-US.

Ingabe ufuna ukwenza okuthile ngakho? Indlela yokuqala nesobala kakhulu yokunqamula ukuphuma kwekhabhoni yemoto yakho kungaba nje ukushayela kancane. Ngezinsuku ezimnandi, chitha isikhathi esiningi ungaphandle, bese ukhetha ukuhamba ngezinyawo noma ngebhayisikili. Ngeke nje wonge imali kugesi, uzothola ukuzivocavoca futhi mhlawumbe wakhe leyo tan yasehlobo!

Awukwazi ukugwema imoto? Kulungile. Nawa amathiphu ambalwa okuhlanza amathrekhi akho futhi wehlise i-carbon footprint yezokuthutha zakho...

Shayela kangcono

Nakuba sonke singathanda ukukholelwa ukuthi singase sibe ku-The Fast and the Furious kwenye impilo, ukushayela ngokunganaki noma budedengu kungakhuphula ngempela ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni yakho! Ukusheshisa, ukusheshisa okusheshayo, kanye nokuphuka okungadingekile kungehlisa ibanga lakho legesi ngo-33%, okufana nokukhokha u-$0.12-$0.79 owengeziwe ngegalani. Yeka ukumosha. Ngakho-ke, sheshisa ngokushelelayo, shayela kancane esilinganisweni sejubane (sebenzisa i-Cruise Control), futhi ulindele izitobhi zakho. Abashayeli bakini bazobonga. Phela umjaho uyahamba kancane futhi uzinzile.

Shayela ngobuchule

Hlanganisa imisebenzi ukuze wenze uhambo olumbalwa. Susa isisindo esiningi emotweni yakho. Gwema ithrafikhi! Ithrafikhi imosha isikhathi, igesi, nemali— futhi ingaba umbulali wemizwa. Ngakho-ke, zama ukuhamba ngaphambi kwesikhathi, ukulinda, noma ukusebenzisa izinhlelo zokusebenza zethrafikhi ukuze uthole umzila ohlukile. Uzonciphisa ukukhishwa kwakho futhi ukujabulele kakhulu.

Nakekela imoto yakho

Akekho othanda ukubona imoto ikhipha intuthu emnyama embhobheni wayo noma ivuza ibala likawoyela ku-asphalt ngesibani esibomvu. Kubi! Gcina imoto yakho ibukele futhi isebenza kahle. Shintshanisa izihlungi zomoya, uwoyela, nophethiloli. Ukulungiswa okulula kokulungisa, okufana nokulungisa izinzwa zomoya-mpilo ezinephutha, kungathuthukisa ngokushesha ibanga lakho legesi kufika ku-40%. Futhi ubani ongawathandi amamayela engeziwe kagesi?

Ukutshala imali emotweni eluhlaza

Izimoto ezididiyelwe nezikagesi zisebenzisa ugesi njengophethiloli, zikhiqiza umoya omncane kunozakwabo abadonsa igesi. Futhi, uma ishajwe ngogesi ohlanzekile ovela emithonjeni evuselelekayo, izimoto zikagesi zikhiqiza i-CO2 eyiziro. Ukusebenzisa amafutha ahlanzekile kanye nemoto eyonga uphethiloli nakho kuyasiza. Amanye amafutha anganciphisa ukukhishwa kwegesi kuze kufike ku-80% uma kuqhathaniswa nophethiloli! Qhubeka futhi uhlole ama-EPA Green Vehicle Guide. Ngokuya ngokuthi uhlala kuphi, ngemva kwezinzuzo nokonga kwegesi, kungase kubize kancane ukushintshanisa imoto yakho ngekagesi.

Ezinye Izibalo ezithakazelisayo

• Ukushayela kubala u-47% we-carbon footprint yomndeni waseMelika ojwayelekile onezimoto ezimbili.
• Umuntu waseMelika ojwayelekile uchitha cishe amahora angama-42 ngonyaka ebambekile emgwaqeni. Ngisho nangaphezulu uma uhlala emadolobheni/eduze.
• Ukufaka umoya kahle amathayi akho kuthuthukisa i-gas mileage yakho ngo-3%.
• Imoto ejwayelekile ikhipha cishe amathani ayi-7-10 e-GHG njalo ngonyaka.
• Ngebanga elingu-5 mph olishayela ngaphezu kuka-50 mph, ukhokha imali elinganiselwa ku-$0.17 ngaphezulu ilitha ngalinye likaphethiloli.

Lungisa i-carbon footprint yakho

Bala futhi ususe i-CO2 edalwe izimoto zakho. I-Ocean Foundation I-SeaGrass Khula Uhlelo lutshala utshani basolwandle, imihlume, kanye nexhaphozi likasawoti ezindaweni ezisogwini ukuze limunce i-CO2 emanzini, kuyilapho izindawo ezisemhlabeni zizotshala izihlahla noma zixhase ngemali amanye amasu namaphrojekthi okunciphisa igesi ebamba ukushisa.
