Kuya kufuneka uhlale phantsi kwelitye ukuze ungazi ukuba uMongameli u-Obama uye wanikezela intetho yakhe yeSimo seManyano kwiNkongolo kunye nelizwe phezolo. Ngethuba esenza intetho yakhe, uthethe ngotshintsho lwemozulu, iziphumo zako kwilizwe lethu, kwaye wasibongoza ukuba sithathe amanyathelo. Uthe:
[sws_blue_box ] “Ngenxa yabantwana bethu nekamva lethu, kufuneka senze okungakumbi ukulwa nokutshintsha kwemozulu. Ewe, kuyinyani ukuba akukho siganeko esinye esenza umkhwa. Kodwa inyaniso ikukuba, eyona minyaka ili-12 ishushu kwirekhodi yonke ifike kwiminyaka eli-15 edluleyo. Singakhetha ukukholelwa ukuba iSuperstorm Sandy, kunye neyona mbalela imbi kakhulu kumashumi eminyaka, kunye nemililo yasendle imbi kakhulu kwamanye amazwe awakhe ayibona yayiyinto nje eyenzeka ngengozi. Okanye sinokukhetha ukukholelwa kwisigwebo esothusayo sesayensi-kwaye senze ngaphambi kokuba sishiywe lixesha. ” [/sws_blue_box]
Mhlawumbi ufunda oku kwaye uyazibuza, "Ukutshintsha kwemozulu kunento yokwenza nemithi?" Impendulo yethu: kakhulu.
Ngonyaka, ihlathi laseCarlifonia elisezidolophini elizizigidi ezingama-200 zemithi lihlutha i-4.5 yezigidi zeetoni ze-greenhouse gases (GHGs) ngelixa likwasusa indawo eyongezelelweyo ye-1.8 yezigidi zeetoni zeemetric ngonyaka. Kwenzeka njalo ukuba oyena mngcolisi mkhulu waseCalifornia ukhuphe isixa esifanayo see-GHGs kulo nyaka uphelileyo. INkonzo yaMahlathi yase-US ichonge i-50 yezigidi zeendawo ezingaphezulu zokutyala imithi ezifumanekayo ngoku kwilizwe liphela. Sicinga ukuba kukho ingxoxo elungileyo yokwenza amahlathi asezidolophini abe yinxalenye yengxoxo yokutshintsha kwemozulu.
Ngexesha lentetho yakhe, uMnu. Obama ukwathe:
[sws_blue_box ]”Ukuba iCongress ayizukuthatha amanyathelo kungekudala ukukhusela izizukulwana ezizayo, ndiza kwenza njalo. Ndiza kuyalela iKhabhinethi yam ukuba ize namanyathelo esigqeba esinokuwathatha, ngoku nakwixesha elizayo, ukunciphisa ungcoliseko, ukulungiselela uluntu lwethu kwiziphumo zokutshintsha kwemozulu, nokukhawulezisa ukutshintshela kwimithombo yombane ezinzileyo.”[/sws_blue_box ]
Njengoko kuthathwa amanyathelo, sinethemba lokuba amahlathi asezidolophini ajongwa njengenxalenye yesisombululo. Imithi yethu, iipaki, kunye neendawo ezivulekileyo zonke zisebenza njengenxalenye yeziseko zezixeko zethu ngokucoca nokugcina amanzi ezikhukula, ukunciphisa ukusetyenziswa kwamandla ngokupholisa amakhaya nezitrato zethu, kwaye ungalibali, ukucoca umoya esiwuphefumlayo.
Ukufumana ulwazi oluthe kratya malunga namahlathi asezidolophini, ukuba angena njani kwincoko yokutshintsha kwemozulu, kunye nenani elimangalisayo lezinye izibonelelo ababonelela ngazo, khuphela eli phepha lolwazi. Yiprinte kwaye wabelane ngayo nabantu ebomini bakho abakhathalele indawo esingqongileyo.
Tyala imithi ukwenza umahluko ngoku nakwiminyaka ezayo. Sinokukunceda wenze loo nto.
