“Iivenkile ezinkulu kulapho abathengi abaqhelekileyo badibana nezona plastiki zilahlwayo”

Mingcali yebhayoloji yaselwandle kunye nomlawuli wephulo lolwandle eGreenpeace USA,UJohn Hocevarwatsho“Iivenkile ezinkulu kulapho abathengi abaqhelekileyo badibana nezona plastiki zilahlwayo”.  

Iimveliso zeplastiki zikho kuyo yonke indawo kwiivenkile ezinkulu. Iibhotile zamanzi, iibhotile ze-peanut butter, i-salad dressing tubes, kunye nokunye; phantse yonke ishelufu izaliswe ziimveliso ezisongelwe kwipakethe yeplastiki.

Uhambo lwakho lweveki lokuthenga luvelisa isixa esikhulu senkunkuma yeplastiki. Ezo ziqwenga zeplastiki ezincinci kwinqwelo yakho yokuthenga zongeza ukuya kwintaba yenkunkuma yeplastiki. EUnited States, iitoni ezizizigidi ezingama-42 zenkunkuma yeplastiki ziveliswa ngonyaka, uninzi lwayo ekugqibeleni luphelela elwandle okanye kwiindawo zokulahla inkunkuma, kuthabatha iminyaka engama-500 ukubola.

Ingxelo yamva nje ye-"2021 Supermarket Plastic Ranking Report" yiGreenpeace USA yabeka izitolo ezinkulu ezingama-20 ngokusekelwe kwiinzame zabo zokujongana nongcoliseko lweplastiki, kwaye ngelishwa, bonke bafumana amabanga angaphumeleliyo. Ingxelo evela kwiGreenpeace UK yathi isiqingatha seevenkile ezinkulu azinanjongo zithe ngqo zokunciphisa inkunkuma yeplastiki, kwaye ezo zineenjongo zihlala zizibeka phantsi kangangokuba izinto zeplastiki ezisetyenziswa kanye kuphela zinokuthatha amashumi eminyaka ukuba zinyamalale kwiishelufa zevenkile. Kubathengisi, "ukunciphisa iplastiki ayiseyiyo eyona nto iphambili, kwaye ezi nkampani zinendlela ende ekufuneka ziyihambile ukuze zifezekise iinjongo zazo."

Ngokukhula kolwazi lwemiba yokusingqongileyo, abantu abaninzi ngakumbi kunye namashishini bafuna izisombululo ezizinzileyo zokunciphisa inkunkuma yeplastiki. ECOPRO'sIvundisiweiibhegi zinika enye indlela yokujongana nale ngxaki.

Ezi ngxowa zenziweIvundisiweizixhobo, okuthetha ukuba zinokubola ngexesha elifutshane ngaphandle kokushiya amasuntswana eplastiki anobungozi ngasemva.IvundisiweIingxowa zomelele kwaye zomelele, kwaye kwezinye iindawo, isingxobo esivundisiweyo sisebenza ngcono kuneeplastiki zemveli,okanye ngcono,Indawo intle! Abanakutshintsha kuphela iibhegi zokuthenga kodwa zinokusetyenziselwa iinjongo ezahlukeneyo kumakhaya, iiofisi, kunye nezinye iisetingi.

Ukukhetha ECOPRO'sIvundisiweiingxowa xa kuthengwa azincedi kuphela ukunciphisa inkunkuma yeplastiki, kodwa zikwaxhasa izenzo ezihambelana nokusingqongileyo kunye nezizinzileyo. Babonelela ngendlela elula kodwa esebenzayo yokuba ngamnye wethu enze igalelo elakhayo kwaye asebenzele imekobume ezinzileyo yekamva lesijikelezi-langa sethu.
