Plastics Initiative
Isikhungo se-Ocean Foundation I-Plastics Initiative (PI) isebenzela ukuthonya ukukhiqizwa nokusetshenziswa okusimeme kwamapulasitiki, ukuze ekugcineni kuzuzwe umnotho oyindilinga ngempela wamapulasitiki. Sikholelwa ukuthi lolu shintsho lwepharadigm luqala ngokubeka izinto ezibalulekile kanye nokwakheka komkhiqizo.
Umbono wethu ukuvikela impilo yabantu neyemvelo, futhi kuthuthukiswe izinto eziza kuqala kwezobulungiswa bezemvelo, ngokusebenzisa indlela yenqubomgomo ephelele yokunciphisa ukukhiqizwa kwepulasitiki nokukhuthaza ukuklanywa kabusha kwepulasitiki.
Ifilosofi Yethu
Uhlelo lwamanje lwepulasitiki alukwazi ukusimama.
Amapulasitiki atholakala ezinkulungwaneni zemikhiqizo, futhi ngokutshalwa kwezimali kumthamo wokukhiqiza wepulasitiki owandayo, ukwakheka kwawo kanye nokusetshenziswa kwawo kuya ngokuya kuba yinkimbinkimbi, futhi inkinga yemfucumfucu yepulasitiki iyaqhubeka ikhula. Izinto zepulasitiki ziyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu futhi zenziwe ngezifiso kakhulu ukuthi zinganikela emnothweni wangempela oyindilinga. Abakhiqizi baxuba ama-polymer, izithasiselo, ama-colorants, izinto zokunamathisela, nezinye izinto zokwakha imikhiqizo nezindlela ezahlukahlukene. Lokhu kuvame ukuguqula imikhiqizo engaphinda igaywe ibe yizinto ezingcolisayo ezingasetshenziswa kanyekanye. Empeleni, 21% kuphela amapulasitiki akhiqizwayo aphinde agaywe kabusha.
Ukungcoliswa kwepulasitiki akuthinti nje impilo yezinto eziphilayo zasemanzini kanye nezinhlobo zayo, kodwa kuphinde kube nomthelela empilweni yabantu kanye nalabo abathembele kulezi zindawo zasolwandle. Kubuye kube nezingozi eziningi ezikhonjwe njengemikhiqizo ehlukahlukene yepulasitiki noma ukusetshenziswa kwamakhemikhali angenisa ekudleni noma esiphuzweni lapho echayeke ekushiseni noma kubanda, kuthinta abantu, izilwane kanye nemvelo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ipulasitiki ingaba i-vector yezinye izinto ezinobuthi, amabhaktheriya nama-virus.
Indlela yethu
Uma kuziwa ekungcolisweni kwepulasitiki, alikho ikhambi elilodwa elizoxazulula lolu songo esintwini nasemvelweni. Le nqubo idinga okokufaka, ukubambisana, kanye nokwenza okuthile okuvela kubo bonke ababambiqhaza - okuvame ukuba namandla nezinsiza zokukala izixazululo ngesivinini esisheshayo. Ekugcineni, kudinga intando yezombusazwe kanye nokusebenza kwenqubomgomo kuwo wonke amazinga kahulumeni, kusukela emaHholo Edolobha endawo kuya kuNhlangano Yezizwe.
I-Plastic Initiative yethu isesimweni esikhethekile sokusebenza ekhaya nasemhlabeni jikelele nezithameli eziningi ukuze kubhekwane nenkinga yokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki ngama-engeli amaningi. Sisebenzela ukususa ingxoxo ekubeni kungani opulasitiki beyinkinga kangaka baye endleleni eqhutshwa isixazululo ehlola kabusha indlela okwenziwa ngayo amapulasitiki, kusukela esigabeni sokuqala sokukhiqiza. Uhlelo lwethu luphinde lulandele izinqubomgomo ezihlose ukunciphisa kakhulu inani lemikhiqizo eyenziwe ngezinto zepulasitiki.
Isibukeli Esigunyaziwe
Njenge-Civil Society Observer egunyaziwe, sifisa ukuba nezwi kulabo ababelana ngemibono yethu ekulweni nokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki. Funda kabanzi mayelana nokuthi kusho ukuthini lokhu:
Kuleyo mikhiqizo nokusetshenziswa lapho ipulasitiki iyindlela engcono kakhulu etholakalayo, sihlose ukulwela izenzo nezinqubomgomo ezizoqinisekisa ukuthi zenziwe zibe lula, ziphephe, futhi zifane ukuze kwandiswe ngokuhlelekile inani lezinto emakethe ezingasetshenziswa ngokuphephile, ziphinde zisetshenziswe, futhi kabusha ukuze kuncishiswe ukulimala okuvela ekungcoleni kwepulasitiki emizimbeni yethu nasemvelweni.
Sisebenzisana eduze - futhi sivala igebe phakathi - kwezinhlangano zikahulumeni, izinkampani, umphakathi wesayensi, kanye nemiphakathi yomphakathi.
Umsebenzi Wethu
Umsebenzi wethu udinga ukusebenzelana nabenzi bezinqumo nababambiqhaza, ukuqhubekisela phambili izingxoxo, ukubhidliza ama-silo, nokucobelelana ngolwazi olubalulekile:
Ama-Global Advocates kanye namaPhilanthropists
Sibamba iqhaza ezingxoxweni zamazwe ngamazwe futhi sifuna izivumelwano ngezihloko ezihlanganisa umjikelezo wempilo wamapulasitiki, ama-micro kanye nama-nanoplastics, ukuphathwa kwabacosha imfucuza yabantu, ukuthuthwa kwezinto eziyingozi, kanye nemithethonqubo yokungenisa nokuthekelisa ngaphandle.
Izinhlaka Zikahulumeni
Sisebenzisana nohulumeni bakuleli nasemazweni angaphandle, sibambisana nezishayamthetho, futhi sifundisa abenzi bezinqubomgomo mayelana nesimo samanje sokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki ukuze silwele umthetho onolwazi lwesayensi ukuze unciphise ngempumelelo, futhi ekugcineni uqede, ukungcoliswa kwepulasitiki endaweni yethu.
Umkhakha Wezimboni
Seluleka izinkampani ngezindawo ezingathuthukisa kuzo ipulasitiki yazo, zisekele intuthuko yamasu amasha nezinqubo, futhi zibandakanye abalingisi bemboni nabakhiqizi bepulasitiki ngohlaka lomnotho oyindilinga.
Umphakathi Wesayensi
Sishintshana ngobuchwepheshe ngezinto zososayensi, osokhemisi, nabanye maqondana nezinqubo ezihamba phambili nobuchwepheshe obusafufusa.
Isithombe Esikhulu
Ukuzuza umnotho oyindilinga ngempela wamapulasitiki kuhlanganisa ukusebenza kuwo wonke umjikelezo wabo wempilo. Sisebenza kanye nezinhlangano eziningi kule nselele yomhlaba wonke.
Amanye amaqembu agxile ekulawulweni kwemfucuza kanye nasekuqedeni ukukhuculula umjikelezo okuhlanganisa ukukhuculula olwandle nolwandle, ukuhlola ngobuchwepheshe obusha, noma ukuqoqa nokuhlunga ukuthi iyiphi imfucumfucu yepulasitiki eseyihambile yaya olwandle nasezigwini. Abanye bakhuthaza ukushintsha ukuziphatha kwabathengi ngemikhankaso nezithembiso, njengokungasebenzisi izitsha zepulasitiki noma ukuphatha izikhwama ezingasetshenziswa kabusha. Le mizamo ibaluleke ngokulinganayo futhi iyadingeka ekulawuleni udoti osevele ukhona kanye nokuqwashisa abantu ukuze kugqugquzelwe ukuguquka kokuziphatha mayelana nendlela umphakathi osebenzisa ngayo imikhiqizo yepulasitiki.
Ngokuhlola kabusha indlela amapulasitiki enziwa ngayo kusukela esigabeni sokukhiqiza, umsebenzi wethu ungena ekuqaleni komjikelezo womnotho oyindilinga ukuze unciphise inani lemikhiqizo eyenziwe ngamapulasitiki futhi usebenzise indlela yokukhiqiza elula, ephephile futhi esezingeni eliphezulu emikhiqizweni leyo. izoqhubeka yenziwa.
