I-Newsletter yocwaningo (2006, Ikota yokuqala)

I-Ocean Foundation "iyisisekelo somphakathi" sokuqala solwandle, esinawo wonke amathuluzi asekelwe kahle esisekelo somphakathi nokugxila okuyingqayizivele ekongiweni kwasolwandle. Ngakho-ke, i-Ocean Foundation ibhekana nezithiyo ezimbili ezinkulu ekongiweni olwandle ngempumelelo kakhudlwana: ukushoda kwemali kanye nokuntuleka kwendawo yokuxhumanisa ochwepheshe bezokongiwa kwasolwandle kalula kubaxhasi abafisa ukutshala imali. Umgomo wethu uwukusekela, ukuqinisa, nokukhuthaza lezo zinhlangano ezizinikele ekubuyiseleni umkhuba wokucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zolwandle emhlabeni jikelele.

4I-TH QUARTER 2005 UKUTSHALWA KWE-OCEAN FOUNDATION

Ngekota yesi-4 ka-2005, i-Ocean Foundation yagqamisa amaphrojekthi alandelayo, futhi yenza izibonelelo zokuwasekela: 

AMATHUBA AMASHA OKUTSHALWA

Abasebenzi be-TOF bakhethe amaphrojekthi alandelayo phambili emsebenzini wokongiwa kolwandle. Sikulethela zona njengengxenye yokusesha kwethu njalo okubalulekile, izixazululo zempumelelo ezidinga uxhaso nokusekelwa.

I-WHO: I-Alaska Conservation Solutions (Deborah Williams)
kuphi: Anchorage, AK
Ini: I-The Giving Voice to Global Warming Project. Ngaphezu kwanoma iyiphi enye indawo esizweni, i-Alaska ibhekene nemithelela eminingi, ebalulekile evela kukufudumala kwembulunga yonke, emhlabeni nasolwandle. Iqhwa lasolwandle lwase-Alaska liyancibilika; uLwandle iBering luyafudumala; amatshwele ezinyoni zasolwandle ayafa; amabhere amhlophe ayaminza; I-salmon yase-Yukon River inesifo; amadolobhana asogwini ayaguguleka; amahlathi ayasha; ama-oyster manje angenwe izifo zasezindaweni ezishisayo; izinguzunga zeqhwa ziyancibilika ngamanani asheshayo; futhi uhlu luyaqhubeka. Imithombo ebalulekile yasolwandle yase-Alaska isengozini ikakhulukazi yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu. Injongo ye-"Giving Voice to Global Warming Project" iwukuba kube lula ofakazi ababalulekile bokufudumala kwembulunga yonke e-Alaska ukuthi bakhulume ngemiphumela yangempela, elinganisekayo, engemihle yokufudumala kwembulunga yonke, ukuze bathole izimpendulo ezidingekayo zezwe nezendawo. Lo msebenzi uholwa u-Deborah Williams obebambe iqhaza elikhulu kwezokongiwa kwemvelo kanye nezindaba ezisimeme zomphakathi e-Alaska iminyaka engaphezu kwengama-25. Ngemva kokuqokwa kwakhe njengoMsizi Okhethekile kuNobhala Wezangaphakathi wase-Alaska, lapho abe eseluleka uNobhala mayelana nokuphatha amahektha ayizigidi ezingu-220 ezindawo zikazwelonke e-Alaska nokusebenza nezizwe zase-Alaska nabanye abahlobene negunya loMnyango elibanzi lemithombo yemvelo namasiko, UNksz. Williams uchithe iminyaka eyisithupha njengoMqondisi Omkhulu we-Alaska Conservation Foundation, ewina imiklomelo eminingi kuleyo ndima.
Kungani: Njengezwe, kufanele sehlise ukukhishwa kwethu kwamagesi abamba ukushisa futhi sisebenzele ukuhlonza ezinye izixazululo ezikhuthaza ukuqina ezindaweni ezisengozini yemvelo, hhayi nje ngenxa yokufudumala komkhathi nolwandle, kodwa nangenxa ye-oceanic acidification. Abantu base-Alaska baneqhaza elikhethekile okufanele balibambe ekukhuthazeni nasekuthuthukiseni i-ajenda yezixazululo zokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu—bahamba phambili emiphumeleni yako kanye nabaphathi bengxenye yokufikela kwezinhlanzi ezithengiswayo zezwe lethu, amaphesenti angama-80 ezinyoni zasolwandle zasendle, kanye nezindawo zokudla. inqwaba yezinhlobo zezilwane ezincelisayo zasolwandle.
Kanjani: Isikhwama Sokushintsha Kwesimo Sezulu se-Ocean Foundation's Climate Change Field-of-Interest Fund, kulabo abakhathazeke ezingeni lomhlaba wonke mayelana nokuphila kwesikhathi eside kweplanethi yethu nezilwandle zethu, lesi sikhwama sinikeza abanikeli amandla okugxila ekunikeleni kwabo ekukhuthazeni ukuqina imvelo yasolwandle lapho ibhekene noshintsho emhlabeni. Igxile kunqubomgomo entsha yenhlangano kanye nemfundo yomphakathi.

I-WHO: Ukongiwa Kwemvelo Okungavamile
kuphi: IPacific neMexico
Ini: Akuvamile ukukholelwa ukuthi ukongiwa kwemvelo kuyindaba yezenhlalo, njengoba nje kuyindaba yesayensi. Ukuntuleka kwezinye izindlela nokuqwashisa kuholela abantu ukuthi baphile ngezindlela eziyingozi emvelweni. Iminyaka engamashumi amathathu, i-Rare isebenzisa imikhankaso yokumaketha komphakathi, amadrama emisakazo aphoqayo, kanye nezixazululo zokuthuthukiswa komnotho ukwenza ukongiwa kwemvelo kufinyeleleke, kufiseleke, futhi kube nenzuzo kubantu abasondelene ngokwanele ukuze benze umehluko.

E-Pacific, i-Rare Pride ibilokhu ikhuthaza ukongiwa kwemvelo kusukela maphakathi nawo-1990. Njengoba isibe nomthelela ezizweni eziyiziqhingi ukusuka ePapua New Guinea kuya eYap eMicronesia, iRare Pride ihlose ukuvikela izinhlobo nezindawo zokuhlala. I-Rare Pride isize imiphumela emihle eminingi yokongiwa kwemvelo, okuhlanganisa: ukusungula isimo sepaki kazwelonke seziqhingi zase-Togean e-Indonesia, ezovikela izixhobo zayo zamakhorali ezintekenteke kanye nenqwaba yezilwane zasolwandle ezihlala lapho, kanye nokuthola igunya elisemthethweni lendawo evikelekile. ukuze kulondolozwe indawo ye-cockatoo yase-Philippine. Njengamanje, imikhankaso isaqhubeka e-American Samoa, ePohnpei, eRota, nakuwo wonke amazwe ase-Indonesia nasePhilippines. Ubambiswano lwakamuva ne-Development Alternatives Inc. (DAI), luzokwenza i-Rare Pride idale isikhungo sesithathu sokuqeqesha e-Bogor, e-Indonesia. I-Rare Pride izokwethula imikhankaso ye-Pride ephuma kule sayithi entsha yokuqeqesha ngo-2007, ifinyelele ngokuphumelelayo cishe abantu abayizigidi ezingu-1.2 e-Indonesia kuphela.

E-Mexico, i-Rare Pride igcina umfelandawonye neKhomishini Kazwelonke Yezindawo Ezivikelekile kahulumeni wase-Mexico (i-CONANP), enemigomo yokusebenzisa umkhankaso we-Pride kuzo zonke izindawo ezivikelekile e-Mexico. I-Rare Pride isivele yasebenza ezindaweni ezivikelwe ezweni lonke, okuhlanganisa i-El Triunfo, i-Sierra de Manantlán, iMagdalena Bay, iMariposa Monarca, i-El Ocote, i-Barranca de Meztitlán, i-Naha ne-Metzabok, kanye nezindawo eziningi ezisenhlonhlweni yaseYucatan kuhlanganise ne-Sian Ka'an, U-Ría Lagartos no-Ría Celestun. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Rare Pride yenze kube lula imiphumela emihle, okuhlanganisa:

• E-Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, i-97% (ekhuphuka isuka ku-52%) yezakhamuzi zingabonisa ukuthi zazi ukuthi zihlala endaweni evikelekile ngesikhathi socwaningo lwangemva komkhankaso;
• Imiphakathi yase-El Ocote Biosphere Reserve yakha ama-brigade angu-12 ukulwa nemililo yamahlathi ebhubhisayo;
• Imiphakathi yase-Ría Lagartos nase-Ría Celestun idale indawo yokugaywa kabusha kwemfucuza ukuze kubhekwane nemfucuza eyeqile ethinta izindawo ezihlala olwandle.

Kungani: Kule minyaka emibili edlule, u-Rare ubephakathi kwabawine abangu-25 kuma-Fast Company/Monitor Group Social Capitalist Awards. Indlela yayo eyimpumelelo idonse iso kanye nesikhwama semali somnikeli onikeze i-Rare inselele yemali engu-$5 million lapho i-Rare kumele iphakamise umdlalo ukuze iqhubeke nomfutho wayo futhi andise umsebenzi wayo. Umsebenzi we-Rare uyingxenye ebalulekile yesu lokuvikela imithombo yasolwandle ezingeni lendawo nelesifunda ngendlela eqinisekisa ukuthi ababambiqhaza badlala indima eqinile, ehlala njalo.
Kanjani: I-Ocean Foundation's Communication and Outreach Fund, kulabo abaqonda ukuthi uma abantu bengazi, abakwazi ukusiza, lesi sikhwama sixhasa izinkundla zokucobelelana ngolwazi nezingqungquthela zalabo abasemkhakheni, imikhankaso yokuxhumana nomphakathi jikelele mayelana nezindaba ezibalulekile, futhi ezihlosiwe. amaphrojekthi okuxhumana.

I-WHO: Ama-Scuba Scouts
kuphiIndawo: Palm Harbor, Florida
Ini: Ama-scuba scouts ukuqeqeshwa kocwaningo lwangaphansi kwamanzi oluyingqayizivele lwezinsizwa nezintokazi kusukela eminyakeni engu-12-18 kusukela emhlabeni wonke. Laba baholi abasebasha emsebenzini wokuqeqesha oHlelweni Lokuhlola Nokuqapha I-Coral Reef eTampa Bay, eGulf of Mexico naseFlorida Keys. Ama-scuba scouts angaphansi kokuqeqeshwa kososayensi abahamba phambili basolwandle abavela eFlorida Fish and Wildlife Institute, NOAA, NASA kanye namanyuvesi ahlukahlukene. Kunezici zohlelo ezenzeka ekilasini futhi ezibandakanya abafundi abangenantshisekelo noma abakwazi ukuhlanganyela engxenyeni engaphansi kwamanzi. Ama-scuba scouts abamba iqhaza ekuqaphelweni kwanyanga zonke kwezixhobo zamakhorali, ukufakelwa kabusha kwamakhorali, ukuqoqwa kwedatha, ukuhlonza izinhlobo zezilwane, ukuthwebula izithombe ngaphansi kwamanzi, imibiko yontanga, kanye nenani lezinhlelo zokunikeza izitifiketi ze-dive (okungukuthi, ukuqeqeshwa kwe-nitrox, amanzi avulekile athuthukile, ukuhlenga, njll.). Ngoxhaso olwanele, ama-scouts anikezwa ulwazi lwezinsuku eziyi-10 esiteshini sokucwaninga ngaphansi kwamanzi se-NOAA i-Aquarius, ukuxhumana nosomkhathi be-NASA emkhathini futhi bahlanganyele ekutshuzeni nsuku zonke e-Marine Sanctuary.
Kungani: Isidingo sososayensi basolwandle sibalulekile ukuze sisize ukuvala izikhala eziningi ekuqondeni kwethu izidingo zemvelo yasolwandle enkathini yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu kanye nokwandisa ukufinyelela kwabantu. Ama-scuba scouts akhuthaza intshisekelo kusayensi yasolwandle futhi akhuthaze abaholi abasha abazothola ithuba lokusebenzisa ikilasi lasolwandle. Ukwehliswa kwesabelomali sikahulumeni kuphinde kwehlisa amathuba alolu hlelo oluyingqayizivele luhlinzeka ngolwazi kubantu abasha abangeke bajwayele ukuthola izinto zokusebenza ze-scuba, ukuqeqeshwa, kanye nekharikhulamu yangaphansi kwamanzi yalolu hlobo.
Kanjani: I-Ocean Foundation's Education Fund, kulabo abaqaphela ukuthi isixazululo sesikhathi eside senkinga yethu yolwandle ekugcineni silele ekufundiseni isizukulwane esilandelayo kanye nokukhuthaza ukwazi ukufunda nolwandle, lesi sikhwama sigxile ekusekelweni nasekusatshalalisweni kwezifundo ezintsha ezithembisayo kanye nezinsiza ezihlanganisa umphakathi njenge kanye nezici zezomnotho zokongiwa kolwandle. Iphinde yeseke ubambiswano oluthuthukisa umkhakha wemfundo yasolwandle wonkana.

TOF IZINDABA

• Abasebenzi be-TOF bavakashele isiqhingi sase-St.Croix beyocwaninga ngemizamo yokongiwa kolwandle e-US Virgin Islands.

IZINDABA EZIBALULEKILE ZASE-OCEANS
Ukulalelwa kwekomidi leSenate Commerce Committee kubanjwe ngesabelomali esihlongozwayo se-National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) yonyaka Wezimali ka-2007. Ukuze i-NOAA isebenze ngokugcwele, ibhekane nazo zonke izingxenye zolwandle nesimo sezulu, izinhlangano ezisebenza ngezindaba zolwandle zikholelwa ukuthi. ukuthi iziphakamiso zamanje ziphansi kakhulu—ziwela ngaphansi kwezinga loxhaso lwe-FY 2006 lika-$3.9 billion, oseluvele lwehlise izinhlelo ezibalulekile. Isibonelo, isabelomali sikaMongameli sika-FY 2007 se-NOAA sinciphise ukusetshenziswa kwe-14 National Marine Sanctuaries kusuka ku-$50 million kuya ku-$35 million. Izinhlelo zocwaningo lwasolwandle, i-tsunami nezinye izinhlelo zokubuka, izikhungo zocwaningo, izinhlelo zemfundo, kanye namagugu ethu kazwelonke angaphansi kwamanzi ngeke akwazi ukulahlekelwa yimali. Izishayamthetho zethu zidinga ukwazi ukuthi sonke sincike olwandle olunempilo futhi sisekela izinga eliphelele lemali engu-$4.5 billion ye-NOAA.

INDLELA ESIYIKHETHA NGAYO UKUTSHALWA KWETHU

Siqala ngokusesha imbulunga yonke amaphrojekthi aphoqayo. Izici ezingenza iphrojekthi ibe namandla zifaka phakathi: isayensi eqinile, isisekelo esiqinile sezomthetho, impikiswano eqinile yenhlalo-mnotho, izilwane noma izitshalo ezithakazelayo, usongo olucacile, izinzuzo ezicacile, kanye nesu eliqinile/elinengqondo lephrojekthi. Bese, njenganoma yimuphi umeluleki wezokutshalwa kwezimali, sisebenzisa uhlu lokuhlola lokukhuthala olunamaphuzu angama-21, olubheka ukuphathwa kwephrojekthi, ukuxhaswa ngezimali, ukugcwaliswa kwemibhalo kwezomthetho neminye imibiko. Futhi, noma nini lapho kungenzeka siphinde senze izingxoxo mathupha nabasebenzi ababalulekile esizeni.

Ngokusobala azikho ezinye iziqinisekiso ekutshalweni kwezimali ngokusiza ngaphezu kokutshala imali. Ngakho-ke, i-Ocean Foundation Research Newsletter yethula kokubili amaqiniso nemibono yokutshala izimali. Kodwa, ngenxa yesipiliyoni seminyaka ecishe ibe ngu-12 ekutshalweni kwezimali kosizo kanye nokukhuthala kwethu kumaphrojekthi afakiwe akhethiwe, sikhululekile ngokwenza izincomo zamaphrojekthi enza umehluko ekongiweni kolwandle.

AMANYE AMAZWI OKUGCINA

I-Ocean Foundation ikhulisa amandla omkhakha wezokongiwa kolwandle futhi ivala igebe phakathi kwalesi sikhathi sokuqwashisa okukhulayo ngenhlekelele ezilwandle zethu kanye nokongiwa kweqiniso, osekwenziwe kwezilwandle zethu, okuhlanganisa nokuphathwa okusimeme kanye nezinhlaka zokubusa.

Ngo-2008, i-TOF izobe isidale uhlobo olusha ngokuphelele lwe-philanthropy (isisekelo somphakathi esihlobene nesizathu), isungule isisekelo sokuqala samazwe ngamazwe esigxile kuphela ekongiweni kolwandle, futhi ibe umxhasi wesine omkhulu wangasese wokongiwa kolwandle emhlabeni. Noma iyiphi yalezi zimpumelelo ingathethelela isikhathi sokuqala nemali ukwenza i-TOF iphumelele - zontathu ziyenza ibe utshalomali oluyingqayizivele futhi oluphoqelelayo egameni lezilwandle zomhlaba kanye nezigidigidi zabantu abathembele kuzo ukuze bathole ukwesekwa kwempilo okubalulekile.

Njenganoma yisiphi isisekelo, izindleko zethu zokusebenza ezezindleko ezisekela ngokuqondile imisebenzi yokunikezwa kwezibonelelo noma imisebenzi eqondile yokupha eyakha umphakathi wabantu abakhathalela izilwandle (njengokuhambela imihlangano yama-NGO, abaxhasi bezimali, noma ukubamba iqhaza emabhodini, njll. ).

Ngenxa yesidingo esengeziwe sokugcinwa kwamabhuku ngokucophelela, imibiko yabatshalizimali, nezinye izindleko zokusebenza, sabela cishe amaphesenti angu-8 kuya ku-10 njengephesenti lethu lokuphatha. Silindele ukunyuka kwesikhashana njengoba siletha abasebenzi abasha ukuze balindele ukukhula kwethu okuzayo, kodwa umgomo wethu wonke kuzoba ukugcina lezi zindleko zisezingeni eliphansi, ngokuvumelana nombono wethu omkhulu wokuthola imali engaka emkhakheni wezokongiwa kwasolwandle. ngangokunokwenzeka.
