Imbali yeengxowa zeplastiki ukususela ekuzalweni ukuya ekuvinjweni
Ngeminyaka yoo-1970, iingxowa zokuthenga zeplastiki zaziseyinto entsha enqabileyo, kwaye ngoku ziye zaba yimveliso yehlabathi jikelele enemveliso yonyaka yetriliyoni enye.Imikhondo yabo ikulo lonke ihlabathi, kuquka neyona ndawo inzulu yolwandle, eyona ncopho iphakamileyo yeMount Everest kunye nencam yomkhenkce.Iiplastiki zidinga amakhulu eminyaka ukuze zithotywe.Ziqulethe izongezo ezinokuthi zibhengeze isinyithi esinzima, i-antibiotics, i-pesticides kunye nezinye izinto ezinetyhefu.Iingxowa zeplastiki zenza imingeni enzima kwindalo.
Zenziwa njani iiplastiki ezilahlwayo?Ivalwa njani?Yenzeka njani le nto?
Ngowe-1933, umzi-mveliso wemichiza eNorthwich, eNgilani ngempazamo wenza eyona plastiki isetyenziswa ngokuqhelekileyo ipolyethylene.Nangona i-polyethylene yaveliswa kwinqanaba elincinci ngaphambili, eli yayilixesha lokuqala ukuba i-industrial material ehlangeneyo yenziwe, kwaye yayisetyenziswa ngokufihlakeleyo ngumkhosi waseBritane ngexesha leMfazwe Yehlabathi II.
Ngo-1965-Ingxowa yokuthenga edibeneyo ye-polyethylene yayinelungelo elilodwa lomenzi yinkampani yaseSweden iCelloplast.Le ngxowa yeplastiki iyilwe yinjineli uSten Gustaf Thulin kungekudala yathatha indawo yelaphu kunye neengxowa zephepha eYurophu.
Ngo-1979-Sele ilawula i-80% yemarike yeengxowa eYurophu, iingxowa zeplastiki ziya phesheya kwaye ziziswa ngokubanzi e-United States.Iinkampani zePlastiki ziqala ukuthengisa ngokukrakra imveliso yazo njengephezulu kunamaphepha kunye neengxowa eziphinda zisetyenziswe.
Ngo-1982-I-Safeway kunye ne-Kroger, ezimbini zeevenkile ezinkulu zevenkile e-United States, zitshintshela kwiingxowa zeplastiki.Iivenkile ezininzi zilandela kwaye ekupheleni kweminyaka elishumi iingxowa zeplastiki ziphantse zathatha indawo yephepha kwihlabathi jikelele.
Ngo-1997-Umatiloshe kunye nomphandi uCharles Moore ufumanisa iPatch yenkunkuma enkulu yePasifiki, eyona gyre inkulu kwiilwandle ezininzi elwandle apho kuye kwaqokelelwa inkunkuma eninzi yeplastiki, isoyikisa ubomi baselwandle.Iingxowa zeplastiki zidume ngokubulala iifudo zaselwandle, ezithi ngempazamo zicinge ukuba ziyi-jellyfish kwaye ziyazitya.
Ngo-2002-i-Bangladesh lilizwe lokuqala emhlabeni ukuphumeza ukuvalwa kweengxowa zeplastiki ezibhityileyo, emva kokuba kufunyaniswe ukuba badlale indima ephambili ekuvaleni iinkqubo zokuhambisa amanzi ngexesha lezikhukula eziyingozi.Amanye amazwe aqala ukulandela.2011-Ihlabathi litya iingxowa zeplastiki ezisisigidi ngomzuzu ngamnye.
I-2017-Kenya iphumeze eyona nto ingqongqo "yokuvalwa kweplastiki".Ngenxa yoko, amazwe angaphezu kwama-20 emhlabeni wonke aphumeze "imiyalelo yokuthintela iplastiki" okanye "imiyalelo yokuvalwa kweplastiki" ukulawula ukusetyenziswa kweengxowa zeplastiki.
I-2018 - "Isigqibo esiKhawulezayo sePlastiki" sikhethwe njengomxholo woSuku lokuSingqongileyo lweHlabathi, kulo nyaka usingathwe yiIndiya.Iinkampani kunye noorhulumente behlabathi jikelele baye bavakalisa inkxaso yabo, kwaye baye bavakalisa ngokulandelelana ukuzimisela nokuzibophelela ekusombululeni ingxaki yokusetyenziswa kongcoliseko lweplastiki enye.
2020- "Ukuvalwa kweeplastiki" kwihlabathi jikelele kuku-ajenda.
Buthanda ubomi kwaye ukhusele okusingqongileyo.Ukhuseleko lokusingqongileyo lunxulumene ngokusondeleyo nobomi bethu kwaye lusenza isiseko sezinye izinto.Sifanele siqale ngezinto ezincinci kwaye siqale kwicala, kwaye sifezekise umkhwa olungileyo wokusebenzisa kancinci kangangoko okanye singalahli iingxowa zeplastiki emva kokusetyenziswa ukukhusela amakhaya ethu!
