Ngomhla woku-1 kuJanuwari, ngo-2020, ukuvalwa kokusetyenziswa kweetafile zeplastiki ezilahlwayo kwaphunyezwa ngokusemthethweni kwi “Energy Transformation to Promote Green Growth Law” yaseFransi, nto leyo eyenza iFransi ibe lilizwe lokuqala ehlabathini ukuvala ukusetyenziswa kwetafile yeplastiki elahlayo.
Iimveliso zeplastiki ezilahlwayo zisetyenziswa kakhulu kwaye zinezinga eliphantsi lokurisayikilishwa, nto leyo ebangela ungcoliseko olumandla kuwo omabini umhlaba nommandla waselwandle.Okwangoku, "ukuthintelwa kweplastiki" kuye kwaba yimvumelwano yehlabathi, kwaye amazwe amaninzi kunye nemimandla ithathe inyathelo kwinkalo yokuthintela iplastiki kunye nokuvinjelwa.Eli nqaku liza kukuthatha kwimigaqo-nkqubo kunye nempumelelo yamazwe kwihlabathi jikelele ekuthinteleni ukusetyenziswa kweemveliso zeplastiki ezilahlwayo.
I-European Union ikhuphe umyalelo wokuthintela iplastiki kwi-2015, ejolise ekunciphiseni ukusetyenziswa kweengxowa zeplastiki kumntu ngamnye kumazwe e-EU ukuba angabi ngaphezu kwe-90 ngonyaka ekupheleni kwe-2019. Ngo-2025, eli nani liya kuncitshiswa libe yi-40. Umyalelo wakhutshwa, onke amazwe angamalungu aqalisa indlela “yonyino lweplastiki”.
Ngo-2018, iPalamente yaseYurophu yapasisa omnye umthetho wokulawula inkunkuma yeplastiki.Ngokomthetho, ukususela ngo-2021, i-European Union iya kuthintela ngokupheleleyo amazwe angamalungu ukuba asebenzise i-10 iintlobo zeemveliso zeplastiki ezilahlwayo ezifana nemibhobho yokusela, i-tableware, kunye ne-cotton swabs, eya kutshintshwa ngephepha, i-straw, okanye iplastiki enzima enokuphinda isetyenziswe.Iibhotile zeplastiki ziya kuqokelelwa ngokwahlukeneyo ngokwendlela ekhoyo yokurisayikilishwa;Ngo-2025, amazwe angamalungu kufuneka afikelele kwiqondo lokuphinda lisetyenziswe kwi-90% kwiibhotile zeplastiki ezilahlwayo.Kwangaxeshanye, umthetho oyilwayo ufuna ukuba abavelisi bathathe uxanduva olukhulu kwimeko yeemveliso zabo zeplastiki kunye nokupakishwa.
Inkulumbuso yase-Bhritane u-Theresa May ubhengeze ukuba akayi kugcina umzamo wokuphumeza ukuvalwa okubanzi kweemveliso zeplastiki.Ukongeza ekubekeni iirhafu zeemveliso zeplastiki ezahlukeneyo kunye nokwanda kophando kunye nophuhliso lwezinye izinto, ukwaceba ukuphelisa yonke inkunkuma yeplastiki enokuthinteleka, kubandakanya iingxowa zeplastiki, iibhotile zesiselo, iindiza, kunye neengxowa ezininzi zokupakisha ukutya, ngo-2042.
IAfrika yenye yemimandla enokuvalwa okukhulu kwemveliso yeplastiki kwihlabathi jikelele.Ukukhula ngokukhawuleza kwenkunkuma yeplastiki kuzise iingxaki ezinkulu zokusingqongileyo nezoqoqosho nezentlalo e-Afrika, nto leyo ebeka isoyikiso kwimpilo nokhuseleko lwabantu.
Ukusukela ngoJuni ka-2019, amazwe angama-34 kwangama-55 ase-Afrika akhuphe imithetho efanelekileyo ethintela ukusetyenziswa kweengxowa zokupakisha zeplastiki ezilahlwayo okanye ukumisela irhafu kubo.
Ngenxa yobhubhane, ezi zixeko ziye zalurhoxisa ukuvalwa kokuveliswa kweplastiki
UMzantsi Afrika uphehlelele esona “soluthintelo seplastiki” siqatha, kodwa ezinye izixeko kufuneka zinqumamise okanye zilibazise ukuphunyezwa kwesithintelo seplastiki ngenxa yokwanda kwemfuno yeengxowa zeplastiki ngexesha lobhubhani we-COVID-19.
Ngokomzekelo, usodolophu waseBoston eUnited States wakhupha umyalelo wolawulo wokukhulula okwethutyana zonke iindawo ekuvalweni kokusetyenziswa kweengxowa zeplastiki de kube ngowama-30 kuSeptemba.UBoston uqale wanqumamisa umrhumo weesenti ezi-5 kwingxowa nganye yeplastiki kunye nephepha ngoMatshi ukunceda abahlali kunye namashishini ukumelana nobhubhane.Nangona isithintelo sandisiwe de kube sekupheleni kukaSeptemba, isixeko sithi sikulungele ukuphumeza isithintelo seplastiki ukusuka nge-1 ka-Okthobha.st
