Simemezela ukuqokwa kwepaki ye-Nopoló kanye ne-Loreto II, ehlinzeka ngokuvikelwa kwemvelo ogwini oluhlanzekile nolunezinhlobonhlobo zezinto eziphilayo e-Baja California Sur, e-Mexico

I-LORETO, BCS, MEXICO - Ngo-Agasti 16^th 2023, I-Nopoló Park kanye ne-Loreto II Park abekelwe eceleni ukuze alondolozwe ngemithetho emibili kaMongameli yokuxhasa intuthuko esimeme, ukuvakasha kwemvelo, nokuvikelwa kwendawo yokuhlala unomphela. Lezi ziqiwu ezimbili ezintsha zizosekela imisebenzi enenzuzo kwezomnotho emiphakathini yendawo ngaphandle kokudela imithombo yemvelo ebalulekile enhlalakahleni yezizukulwane zamanje nezesikhathi esizayo.

Background

Ibekwe phakathi kwezintaba ze-Sierra de la Giganta kanye nogu lwe-Loreto Bay National Park / Parque Nacional Bahia Loreto, kuhlezi umasipala wase-Loreto esifundeni esihle sase-Mexico sase-Baja California Sur. Njengendawo yezivakashi edumile, i-Loreto iyipharadesi labathandi bemvelo ngempela. I-Loreto inama-ecosystem ahlukahlukene njengamahlathi e-cardón cacti, izingwadule eziphakeme, kanye nezindawo eziyingqayizivele zasogwini lolwandle. Umhlaba osogwini nje ungamakhilomitha angu-7+ olwandle phambi kwalapho kufika khona imikhomo ezozala futhi yondle amaphuphu ayo. Kukho konke, lesi sifunda sihlanganisa cishe amakhilomitha angama-250 (amamayela ayi-155) ogwini, amakhilomitha-skwele angama-750 (amamayela angama-290) olwandle, neziqhingi eziyi-14 - (empeleni iziqhingi ezi-5 neziqhingi ezimbalwa / iziqhingi ezincane). 

Ngawo-1970, i-National Tourism Development Foundation (FONATUR) yahlonza i-Loreto njengesifunda esiyinhloko 'sokuthuthukiswa kwezokuvakasha' ngokuqaphela izimfanelo ezikhethekile neziyingqayizivele ze-Loreto. I-Ocean Foundation kanye nozakwethu bendawo baye bafuna ukuvikela le ndawo ngokusungulwa kwala mapaki amasha: I-Nopoló Park ne-Loreto II. Ngokuqhubeka nokusekelwa komphakathi, sicabanga ukuthuthukisa a ipaki enempilo nenempilo elawulwa ngendlela eqhubekayo, evikela imithombo yamanzi ahlanzekile endawo, futhi evuselela imizamo yokuvakasha kwemvelo esekwe emphakathini. Ekugcineni, leli paki lizoqinisa umkhakha wendawo wezokuvakasha kwemvelo futhi likhuthaze intuthuko esimeme kuyilapho lisebenza njengesibonelo esiyimpumelelo kwezinye izindawo ezisongelwa ukuvakasha kwabantu abaningi.

Izinhloso eziqondile ze-Nopoló Park kanye ne-Loreto II yilezi:

• Ukonga izakhi ezivumela ukusebenza okwanele kwe-ecosystem kanye nezinsizakalo zazo ze-ecosystem ehlobene e-Loreto
• Ukuvikela kanye nokusimamisa imithombo yamanzi eyivelakancane
• Ukwandisa amathuba okuzijabulisa angaphandle
• Ukuvikela izindawo ezingamaxhaphozi kanye nezindawo ezihlala amanzi ezindaweni ezihlala ogwadule
• Ukonga izinhlobonhlobo zezinto eziphilayo, ngokunaka okukhethekile ku-endemic (izinhlobo ezitholakala kule ndawo kuphela) kanye nezinhlobo ezisengozini yokushabalala.
• Ukukhulisa ukwazisa nolwazi lwendalo kanye nezinzuzo zayo
• Ukuvikela ukuxhumana kwe-ecosystem kanye nobuqotho bemihubhe yezinto eziphilayo
• Ukuthuthukisa intuthuko yendawo 
• Ukuze uthole ukufinyelela eLoreto Bay National Park
• Ukuze ujabulele i-Loreto Bay National Park
• Ukwakha imfundo nokubaluleka komphakathi
• Ukudala inani lesikhathi eside

Mayelana ne-Nopoló Park ne-Loreto II

Ukwakhiwa kwe-Nopoló Park kubalulekile hhayi nje ngenxa yobuhle bemvelo obaziwayo besifunda, kodwa ngenxa yobuqotho bemvelo yendawo kanye nemiphakathi encike kukho. I-Nopoló Park ibaluleke kakhulu nge-hydrological. Indawo enamanzi yaseNopoló Park etholakala lapha ishaja kabusha indawo engaphansi komhlaba esebenza njengengxenye yomthombo wamanzi ahlanzekile we-Loreto. Noma iyiphi intuthuko engapheli noma izimayini kulo mhlaba zingasongela yonke i-Loreto Bay National Marine Park, futhi kubeke ukuhlinzekwa kwamanzi ahlanzekile engcupheni. 

Njengamanje, u-16.64% wendawo yase-Loreto ingaphansi kwemvume yezimayini - ukwanda okungaphezu kuka-800% kwezimvume kusukela ngo-2010. Imisebenzi yezimayini ingaba nemiphumela emibi ehlasimulisayo: ukubeka engcupheni imithombo yamanzi elinganiselwe ye-Baja California Sur kanye nokubeka engcupheni ezolimo, imfuyo, ukuvakasha kwe-Loreto. , kanye neminye imisebenzi yezomnotho kuso sonke isifunda. Ukusungula i-Nopoló Park kanye nepaki ye-Loreto II kuqinisekisa ukuthi le ndawo ebalulekile yebhayoloji iyalondolozwa. Ukuvikela okusemthethweni kwale ndawo yokuhlala ebucayi kuwumgomo osekukudala ufunwa. Indawo yokulondoloza i-Loreto II iqinisekisa ukuthi abantu bendawo bazokwazi ukubona ugu kanye nepaki yasolwandle phakade.

I-Loretanos isivele idlale indima enkulu ekugcwalisekeni kwaleli paki futhi iguqule i-Loreto ibe indawo esimeme yohambo lwangaphandle. I-Ocean Foundation isebenze namaqembu omphakathi wendawo, abathanda ngaphandle namabhizinisi ukusekela ezokuvakasha zangaphandle endaweni. Njengokukhombisa ukwesekwa komphakathi, I-Ocean Foundation kanye nohlelo lwayo lwe-Keep Loreto Magical, kanye ne-Sea Kayak Baja Mexico, ithole ngempumelelo amasiginesha endawo angaphezu kuka-900 esicelweni sokuxhasa ukudluliselwa kwephasela elingamahektha ayi-16,990 lisuka kuNational Tourism Development Foundation (FONATUR) liyiswe kuKhomishana Kazwelonke ye Izindawo Zemvelo Ezivikelwe (CONANP) zokuvikelwa kwenhlangano unomphela. Namuhla, sibungaza ukusungulwa okusemthethweni kwe-Nopoló Park kanye ne-Loreto II, izindawo zokugcina ezimbili ezintsha zase-Loreto ezisogwini nezintaba.

Mayelana Nozakwethu Bephrojekthi

I-Ocean Foundation 

Njengenhlangano engenzi nzuzo ebhaliswe ngokusemthethweni futhi ebhalisiwe 501(c)(3), i-The Ocean Foundation (TOF) the isisekelo somphakathi kuphela esizinikele ekuthuthukiseni ukongiwa kwasolwandle emhlabeni jikelele. Kusukela yasungulwa ngo-2002, i-TOF isebenze ngokuzikhandla ukuze isekele, iqinise, futhi ikhuthaze lezo zinhlangano ezizinikele ekubuyiseleni umkhuba wokucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zolwandle emhlabeni jikelele. I-TOF ifinyelela umgomo wayo ngokusebenzisa imigqa emithathu ehlobene yebhizinisi: ukuphathwa kwesikhwama nokwenza izibonelelo, ukubonisana nokwakha amandla, kanye nokuphathwa nokuthuthukiswa kwabanikelayo. 

Okuhlangenwe nakho kwe-TOF eMexico

Kudala ngaphambi kokwethula i-Nopoló Park Project e-Loreto eminyakeni emibili edlule, i-TOF yayinomlando ojulile wokupha abantu eMexico. Kusukela ngo-1986, uMongameli we-TOF, u-Mark J. Spalding, usebenze kulo lonke elase-Mexico, futhi uthando lwakhe ngezwe lubonakala eminyakeni engu-15 ye-TOF yokuphatha okunozwela lapho. Kuyo yonke le minyaka, i-TOF yakhe ubudlelwano nama-NGO amabili e-Loreto ahamba phambili kwezemvelo: i-Eco-Alianza kanye ne-Grupo Ecological Antares (eyakamuva ayisasebenzi). Sibonga ingxenye yalobu budlelwano, abasekeli bezezimali bezinhlangano ezingenzi inzuzo, kanye nosopolitiki basendaweni, i-TOF isithuthuke ngezinhlelo eziningi zezemvelo kulo lonke elaseMexico, okuhlanganisa nokuvikelwa kwe-Laguna San Ignacio kanye ne-Cabo Pulmo. E-Loreto, i-TOF yasiza ekudluliseni uchungechunge lwemithetho yendawo yokuvimbela izimoto ezihamba ngezimoto emabhishi kanye nokwenqabela ukumba izimayini kumasipala. Kusukela kubaholi bomphakathi kuya emkhandlwini wedolobha, iMeya yase-Loreto, uMbusi we-Baja California Sur, kanye noNobhala Bezokuvakasha Nezemvelo, Izinsiza Zemvelo Nezokudoba, i-TOF isibeke kahle isisekelo sempumelelo engenakugwenywa.

Ngo-2004, i-TOF yahola ukusungulwa kwe-Loreto Bay Foundation (LBF) ukuze kuqinisekiswe intuthuko eqhubekayo e-Loreto. Kule minyaka eyishumi edlule, i-TOF yenze ingxenye yesithathu engathathi hlangothi futhi yasiza ekudaleni: 

1. Uhlelo lokuphatha lwe-Loreto Bay National Marine Park
2. Ifa lika-Loreto njengedolobha lokuqala (umasipala) elake laba nomthetho wezemvelo (esifundeni se-BCS)
3. Umthetho ohlukile we-Loreto wokwenqabela ukumba izimayini
4. Isimiso sokuqala sokusetshenziswa komhlaba esidinga isinyathelo sikamasipala sokuphoqelela umthetho wenhlangano owenqabela izimoto ezihamba ogwini lolwandle

Umgomo kaFonatur ukuhlonza, ukugxilisa ingqondo kanye nokusungula amaphrojekthi okutshalwa kwezimali okusimeme emkhakheni wezokuvakasha, agxile ekuthuthukisweni kwesifunda, ukukhiqizwa kwamathuba emisebenzi, ukuthunjwa kwezimali, ukuthuthukiswa komnotho kanye nenhlalakahle yomphakathi, ukuthuthukisa izinga lezemvelo. impilo yabantu. I-Fonatur isebenza njengethuluzi lesu lokutshalwa kwezimali okusimeme e-Mexico, isiza ukuthuthukisa ukulingana komphakathi kanye nokuqinisa ukuncintisana komkhakha wezokuvakasha, ukuze kuzuze izakhamuzi zendawo.

I-Conservation Alliance

I-Conservation Alliance isebenza ukuze ivikele futhi ibuyisele izindawo zasendle zaseMelika ngokuhlanganyela amabhizinisi ukuze axhase futhi ahlanganyele nezinhlangano. Selokhu baqala ukusungulwa ngo-1989, i-Alliance iye yanikela ngemali engaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-20 zamaRandi emaqenjini okulondoloza imvelo emazingeni aphansi futhi isize ukuvikela amahektha angaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-51 kanye namamayela omfula angaphezu kuka-3,000 kulo lonke elaseNyakatho Melika. 

Izingubo ZaseColombia

Ukugxila kweColumbia ekongiweni kwangaphandle kanye nemfundo kubenze baba umsunguli ohamba phambili ekugqokeni kwangaphandle. Ubambiswano lwebhizinisi phakathi kwe-Columbia Sportswear ne-TOF lwaqala ngo-2008, ngomkhankaso we-TOF's SeaGrass Grow Campaign, owawuhlanganisa ukutshala nokubuyisela utshani basolwandle eFlorida. Eminyakeni eyishumi nanye edlule, i-Columbia inikeze ngegiya lekhwalithi ephezulu amaphrojekthi we-TOF athembele kuwo ukuze enze umsebenzi wasensimini obalulekile ekongiweni kolwandle. I-Columbia ibonise ukuzibophezela emikhiqizweni ehlala njalo, eyisithunzi nentsha eyenza abantu bajabulele ngaphandle isikhathi eside. Njengenkampani yangaphandle, i-Columbia yenza yonke imizamo yokuhlonipha nokulondoloza imithombo yemvelo, ngenhloso yokunciphisa umthelela wazo emiphakathini eyithintayo kuyilapho igcina umhlaba esiwuthandayo sonke.

I-Sea Kayak Baja yaseMexico

I-Sea Kayak Baja Mexico isalokhu iyinkampani encane ngokuzikhethela—ehlukile, enothando ngabakwenzayo, futhi ekwazi kahle. U-Ginni Callahan wengamela ukusebenza, abaqeqeshi, neziqondiso.
