UMLILO we-CAL kunye nabaSebenzi baBhiyozela iVeki ye-Arbor yaseCalifornia kunye neZibonelelo
yokuTyalwa kweMithi kunye neMisitho yeMfundo yokuKhathalelwa kwemithi
I-SACRAMENTO, eCalifornia - iSebe laseCalifornia lezaMahlathi kunye noKhuseleko loMlilo (CAL FIRE), i-USDA Forest Service (USFS), kunye neCalifornia ReLeaf bamkele inkxaso kunye nenkxaso ye-Edison International kunye neBlue Shield yaseCalifornia ukubhiyozela iVeki ye-Arbor yaseCalifornia, ngoMatshi 7-14, 2023. Kulo nyaka, i-$ 50,000 kwiVeki ye-Arbor yeVeki ye-Arbor yenzelwa ukuba ixhaswe yi-Arbour entsha ye-Arbor isibonelelo somthi-i-Blues ek Ukhuphiswano lobuGcisa boLutsha. Izibonelelo zeVeki yoTyalo-mthi ziya kuxhasa ngemali iiprojekthi ezili-10 eziququzelelwe ngamaqela oluntu kunye nabangenzi nzuzo abasebenza ngokukhutheleyo ukwenza iindawo zabo zokuhlala zibe luhlaza, zibe nempilo, kwaye zomelele ngemithi yasezidolophini. I-CAL FIRE kunye ne-USFS ayingobamkeli bezi zibonelelo. Imithi yaseCalifornia ibalulekile-ingakumbi njengoko sijongene nemozulu eguqukayo. Enye indlela esinokwakha ngayo uluntu olukwaziyo ukumelana nemozulu kukutyala imithi. Wonke umthi otyaliweyo usebenza ukutsala ikharbon diokside ngaphandle kwe-atmosfera, ukucoca umoya kunye namanzi ethu, ukupholisa iindawo esihlala kuzo, ukubonelela ngeendawo zokuhlala izilwanyana zasendle, ukudibanisa uluntu, kunye nokuxhasa impilo kunye nentlalontle yethu.
Inkomfa noonondaba yabanjwa ngoMatshi 7, 2023, eSouth Prescott Park e-Oakland ukuhlonipha iVeki yeArbor yaseCalifornia kunye nabaxhamli beVeki yeArbor, kunye nokutyhila abaphumeleleyo kuKhuphiswano loLutsha lweVeki yeArbor yowama-2023. Ukulandela inkomfa noonondaba, umbhiyozo weVeki ye-Arbor yokutyala imithi yasingathwa ngamahlathi asekuhlaleni angenzi nzuzo iCommon Vision namanye amahlakani oluntu lwase-Oakland.
“Sikholelwa ukuba umthi awungomthi nje, kodwa uwuphawu lwethemba, ukomelela, kunye noluntu,” utshilo uWanda Stewart, uMlawuli oyiNtloko weCommon Vision. “Abalingane bethu abangenzi nzuzo kunye noluntu basebenza ngokuzimisela ukuzisa iindawo eziluhlaza ngakumbi eWest Oakland kuba siyaqonda ukuba indawo ephucukileyo yedolophu ixhomekeke kwimpilo nakwintlalontle yabahlali bayo. Ngokutyala imithi kunye nokukhuthaza uhlaza ezidolophini, sidala ilifa lozinzo kunye nolingano ukuze zixhamle izizukulwana ezizayo.”
UCindy Blain, uMlawuli oyiNtloko weCalifornia ReLeaf, uthe, “Siyavuya ukusebenzisana nawo onke la maqabane abalaseleyo ukubhiyozela iVeki yeArbor yaseCalifornia e-Oakland. IVeki yoTyalo-mithi sisikhumbuzo sonyaka sokuba sinqumame kwaye sibhiyozele amandla emithi yethu yasezidolophini kunye noluntu oluyikhulisayo kwaye luyikhathalele. Imithi sisisombululo esinamandla esisekwe kwindalo ukulwa nokutshintsha kwemozulu kwaye yenze umahluko omkhulu ekuphuculeni impilo yoluntu kwizixeko zethu - kwaye kufanelekile ukubhiyozelwa!
I-California ReLeaf, i-CAL FIRE, kunye ne-USFS yamkele inkxaso ye-Edison International kunye neBlue Shield yaseCalifornia kule ngqalelo ebalulekileyo yexabiso lemithi. Kulo nyaka i-Edison International yanikela ngesisa i-50,000 yeedola zeVeki ye-Arbor izibonelelo zokutyala umthi kummandla wabo ukunceda ukulwa neziganeko zobushushu obugqithisileyo e-Southern California. U-Edison kunye namagosa ezempilo karhulumente ayaqonda ukuba iziganeko zobushushu obugqithisileyo ziyichaphazela kakhulu impilo yabantu kwaye imithi ibalulekile
ukunciphisa isiphumo sesiqithi sobushushu sasedolophini.
"I-California ReLeaf inomdla kunye nobuchule bokujongana ngokufanelekileyo nemiba ebalulekileyo yokusingqongileyo echaphazela uluntu lwethu, kwaye i-Edison International inebhongo ngokuxhasa ngenkxaso-mali yeVeki ye-Arbor yokutyala umthi kunyaka wesihlanu olandelelanayo," utshilo u-Alejandro Esparza, uMphathi oyiNtloko we-Corporate Philanthropy kunye nokuBambisana noLuntu kwi-Southern California Edison. "Kubalulekile ukuba siqhubeke nokwazisa kunye nokujongana neempembelelo zokutshintsha kwemozulu kubomi bethu bemihla ngemihla kwaye iVeki ye-Arbor isikhumbuza ukuba sonke sinokwenza okungakumbi ukunceda."
Kulo nyaka iBlue Shield yaseCalifornia ixhasa iCarlifonia Arbor Week Youth Poster Contest ukunceda ukufundisa nokukhuthaza isizukulwana esilandelayo ngokubaluleka kokukhula nokukhusela amahlathi ethu asezidolophini. Umxholo walo nyaka uthi “Imithi Ityala Ikamva Elipholileyo.” Ukhuphiswano lobugcisa lukhuthaza abantwana besikolo abaneminyaka emi-5-12 ukuba bacinge ngendlela imithi enokunceda ngayo ekwenzeni uluntu lwethu luphole kwaye lube sempilweni. Abaphumelele ukhuphiswano babhengezwa, kwaye umsebenzi wabo wobugcisa watyhilwa ngexesha lenkomfa yoonondaba.
“Imithi lukhathalelo lwempilo,” utshilo u-Antoinette Mayer, uSekela Mongameli woBumi beNkampani eBlue Shield yaseCalifornia. “Icanopy yemithi yasezidolophini eyomeleleyo iphucula impilo yengqondo kunye nomzimba, ilwa nokutshintsha kwemozulu kunye nongcoliseko, kwaye inceda abamelwane bethu ukwakha uluntu. Kodwa uluntu lwethu olungafumani nkonzo luhlala lushiyeke ngasemva. IBlue Shield yaseCalifornia inebhongo ngokusebenzisana neCalifornia ReLeaf ukuxhasa uKhuphiswano loLutsha lweVeki yeArbor yeVeki yaseCalifornia kwaye ibandakanye ulutsha ukuba lube ngoonozakuzaku bendalo esingqongileyo ukudala ikamva elilinganayo neliphilekayo kubo bonke abantu baseCalifornia.
IVeki yeArbor yaseCalifornia inenkxaso eqhubekayo ye-USFS kunye ne-CAL FIRE. Zombini ezi arhente zixhasa ukutyalwa kwemithi yoluntu kwiindawo zasezidolophini zaseCalifornia ngenkxaso-mali yesibonelelo, imfundo, kunye nobuchule bobugcisa ngokuqhubekayo.
“INkonzo yeHlathi izinikele ekuzinziseni amahlathi asempilweni, azinzileyo – ukusuka kumaziko ethu asezidolophini ukuya kwiidolophu zethu ezisemaphandleni,” utshilo uSekela Mhlathi weNgingqi uKara Chadwick. "Siyayixabisa intsebenziswano eninzi yabo bahlanganisana ukukhumbula uSuku lwe-Arbor kunye nokusebenza kuwo wonke uMmandla wethu ukutyala kunye nokunyamekela imithi ekhupha ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni, ukuphucula impilo yoluntu kunye nokuphila kakuhle, kunye nokukhulisa amahlathi anokumelana nemozulu kwizizukulwana ezizayo."
UWalter Passmore, weCAL FIRE's State Urban Forester, uthe, "Imithi yaseCalifornia ibonelela ngekhusi kubushushu obugqithisileyo, icoca umoya wethu, namanzi, kwaye ithomalalisa iingqondo nemizimba yethu. Imithi isebenza yonke imihla. IVeki yoTyalo lwemithi ngumbhiyozo wayo yonke imithi esenzela yona kunye nexesha lokutyala okanye ukukhathalela imithi. "
