Ufuna ukuhamba ungenaphepha?Emhlabeni wanamuhla, abathengi baya ngokuya bebophezeleka ekuqapheleni i-carbon footprint yabo futhi bathathe izinyathelo zokuyinciphisa.Izinkampani zamabhange ezifana no-Santander zithi ngokuhambisa izitatimende zebhange ezingamaphepha ku-inthanethi, wenza ingxenye yakho yekusasa elisimeme.
Kodwa kuyiqiniso kangakanani ukusho kwabo?Izwe lokusimama kwephepha ligcwele izinganekwane nezimfihlakalo.Kulula ukucabanga ngamahlathi acekelwe phansi ukudala iphepha, kodwa iqiniso lihluke kakhulu.
Ngesipiliyoni seminyaka engaphezu kwengu-20 embonini yokunyathelisa,I-Shanghai Langhai Printing inikeza izinketho zokuphrinta eziqhubekayo, ezinobungani kwemvelo.Amaphrinti enziwe ngendlela oyifisayo ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zamakhasimende, njengezikhwama zephepha, amabhokisi, izimvilophu, amakhadi, njll.
MayiCukufakwa:
1.Imboni yephepha inikela kuphela ngo-0.8% wengqikithi yokukhishwa kwesisi esingcolisa umoya yaseYurophu, uma kuqhathaniswa no-4.8% embonini yensimbi kanye no-5.6% wezimbiwa ezingezona ezensimbi.
2.Ukwenza amaphepha akuzange kuwacekele phansi amahlathi – empeleni, phakathi kuka-1995 no-2020, amahlathi ase-Europe akhula ngezinkundla zebhola eziyi-1,500 ngosuku.Amaphesenti angama-93 wamanzi ahoxisiwe asetshenziswa ekwenziweni kwamaphepha abuyiselwa emvelweni.
3.Uma kuqhathaniswa nesilinganiso senani lamamayela ashayelwa umuntu ngamunye ngonyaka, iphepha elisetshenziswa umuntu ngamunye ngonyaka likhipha kuphela u-5.47% CO2.
4.Iphepha likwazi ukuphinda lisetshenziswe kabusha - liphinde lisetshenziswe ngokwesilinganiso izikhathi ezingu-3.8 eYurophu, futhi u-56% wefayibha eluhlaza esetshenziswa embonini yamaphepha yaseYurophu ivela ephepheni elisetshenziselwa ukugaywa kabusha.
Inganekwane #1: Ukuze ube nomthelela omuhle emhlabeni, kufanele ushintshele kwezokuxhumana ezingenamaphepha
Uma ubheka phezulu, kulula ukucabanga ukuthi ukuxhumana ngephepha kuzoba nomthelela omkhulu kakhulu emhlabeni kunokuxhumana okungenamaphepha.Kodwa-ke, umthelela wemvelo wokusabalala kwephepha uncike ekutheni iphepha lisetshenziswa futhi liphinde lisetshenziswe kanjani.
Ezimweni eziningi, umthelela wangempela wokuxhumana ngogesi endaweni ubukelwa phansi.I-European Commission yasho ngo-2020 ukuthi imboni ye-ICT yenza u-2% wokukhishwa kwegesi ebamba ukushisa emhlabeni wonke (okulingana nakho konke ukuhamba kwezindiza emhlabeni).I-E-waste ekhiqizwa imboni ikhuphuke ngamaphesenti angama-21 kule minyaka emihlanu edlule, kanye nezinsiza ezidingekayo ukuze kulawuleke ezokuxhumana emhlabeni wonke.-njengamaseva namajeneretha-azivuseleleki futhi kunzima ukuzigaya kabusha.
Uma sizocabangela umthelela wesikhathi eside walezi zindlela ezimbili zokuxhumana, iphepha liyakwazi ukuvuselelwa futhi lisebenziseka kabusha.Ngemva kokubambisana ne-Two Sides, izinhlangano ezingaphezu kuka-750 ezinkulu emhlabeni zisuse izimangalo ezidukisayo zokuthi ukuxhumana kwedijithali kungcono endaweni ezungezile.
Inganekwane 2: Iphepha ukwenza kunomthelela omkhulu ekukhishweni kwe-carbon dioxide
Ngokombiko we-European Environment Agency's Greenhouse Gas Inventory, umkhakha wephepha, u-pulp kanye nokunyathelisa ungomunye wemikhakha yezimboni ekhipha umoya omncane kakhulu.Eqinisweni, izinkampani ezisebenza kulezi zifunda zenza u-0.8% kuphela wengqikithi yokukhishwa kwegesi ebamba ukushisa yaseYurophu.
EYurophu'Izimboni zensimbi nezimbiwa phansi zifaka isandla kakhulu ezwenikazi's ukukhishwa kwegesi ebamba ukushisa-imboni yezimbiwa ezingezona ezensimbi yenza u-5.6% wengqikithi ekhishwayo, kuyilapho imboni yensimbi eyisisekelo yenza ama-4.8%.Ngakho-ke, nakuba ukwenza iphepha ngokungangabazeki kunomthelela ekukhishweni kwe-CO2, izinga lalo mnikelo livame ukuphakanyiswa.
Inganekwane 3: Iphepha ukwenza kucekela phansi amahlathi ethu
Izinto zokusetshenziswa zokhuni fibre kanye uginindela esetshenziswa ephepheni ukwenziwa kuvuna ezihlahleni, okuholela embonweni oyiphutha owandile wokuthi ukukhiqizwa kwephepha kucekela phansi amahlathi omhlaba.Nokho, akunjalo.Kulo lonke elaseYurophu, cishe wonke amahlathi ayisisekelo avikelekile, okusho ukuthi umjikelezo wokutshala, ukutshala nokugawulwa kwemithi ulawulwa ngokuqinile.
Eqinisweni, amahlathi kulo lonke elaseYurophu ayakhula.Kusukela ngo-2005 kuya ku-2020, amahlathi ase-Europe engeza izinkundla zebhola eziyi-1,500 nsuku zonke.Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuphela i-13% yezinkuni zomhlaba wonke ezisetshenziselwa ukwenza amaphepha - iningi elikhulu likaphethiloli, ifenisha kanye nezinye izimboni.
Inganekwane 4: Iphepha ukwenza udoti amanzi amaningi
Amanzi ayisithako esibalulekile ephepheni ukwenza inqubo, nakuba ukusetshenziswa kwayo kuye kwehliswa kakhulu eminyakeni yamuva.Eminyakeni yokuqala, iphepha ukwenza ngokuvamile esetshenziswa amanani ngokweqile amanzi, kodwa intuthuko ephepheni zanamuhla izinqubo zokwenza zinciphise kakhulu lesi sibalo.
Kusukela ngeminyaka yawo-1990, ukumuncwa kwamanzi okumaphakathi ngethani lephepha lehle ngo-47%.Ukwengeza, iningi lesamba esiphelele esisetshenzisiwe esisetshenziswe kule nqubo sibuyiselwa endaweni ezungezile - i-93% yokuthatha iphinda isetshenziswe emshinini wephepha, bese icutshungulwa futhi ibuyiselwe emthonjeni.
Lokhu futhi kungenxa yentuthuko entsha emjikelezweni wokukhiqiza-izibuyekezo zokuhlunga, ukuhlalisa, ukuntanta kanye nezinqubo zokwelashwa kwebhayoloji zisiza abakhiqizi bamaphepha babuyisele amanzi amaningi endaweni ezungezile.
Inganekwane #5: Awukwazi ukusebenzisa iphepha ekuphileni kwakho kwansuku zonke ngaphandle kokulimaza iplanethi
Cishe yonke into esiyenzayo ikhulisa i-carbon footprint yethu.Iqiniso elimsulwa liwukuthi ukusetshenziswa kwephepha ngumuntu ovamile akulimazi kangako iplanethi kunezinye izici eziningi zokuphila kwansuku zonke.Ngokwe-Forest Products Yearbook ye-FAO, amazwe aseYurophu asebenzisa isilinganiso samakhilogremu angu-119 ephepha umuntu ngamunye ngonyaka.
Isilinganiso se-EUROGRAPH sisikisela ukuthi ukukhiqiza nokusebenzisa ithani elilodwa lephepha kukhiqiza cishe amakhilogremu angu-616 esikhutha.Uma sisebenzisa le nombolo njengesilinganiso, umuntu ovamile uzokhiqiza ama-73 kg e-carbon dioxide ngonyaka aqeda iphepha (119 kg).Lesi sibalo silingana nokushayela imoto ejwayelekile ibanga elingu-372 miles.Ngaleso sikhathi, abashayeli base-UK bashayela isilinganiso samamayela ayi-6,800 ngonyaka.
Ngakho-ke ukusetshenziswa kwephepha konyaka komuntu ojwayelekile kukhiqiza kuphela u-5.47% wamamayela onyaka eshayelwa, okukhombisa ukuthi ukusebenzisa kwakho iphepha kukuthinta kancane kangakanani ukushayela kwakho.
UGlen Eckett, uMqondisi Wezokumaketha kwaSolopress, waphawula: “Njengoba amabhizinisi amaningi nezinkampani zikhuthaza ikusasa elingenaphepha, kubonakala kulungile ukuqeda ezinye izinganekwane mayelana nemboni yamaphepha.Iphepha lingomunye wemikhiqizo egaywe kabusha kakhulu emhlabeni, futhi ukukhiqizwa kwalo kanye Inqubo yokusetshenziswa ihambisana kakhulu nemvelo kunalokho imibiko yezindaba ikholelwa.Kukhona indawo yakho kokubili ukuxhumana okuphrintiwe nokwedijithali esikhathini esizayo.
