I-Blue Initiative

Uma kubhekwa kusuka esiteshini sezulu samazwe omhlaba, iplanethi ine-ocean eyodwa, indawo yomoya eyodwa kanye nesimo sezulu esilingana nobukhulu bezindawo eziphakathi nendawo. Okungabonakali lapha phezulu yimigqa emise kuma-maps ethu, futhi ukutheleleka akukwazi ukuzibona. Umoya we-fertilizer emfuleni owodwa ushintsha ibe yindawo efile eduze kwesinye isiqhingi. Umhluzi ovela edolobhaneni elinye usuka emazingeni olwandle angaphezu kwamakhilomitha ayizigidi. I-Blue Initiative ichaza lezi zingozi ngedatha engcono kakhulu etholakalayo, futhi ibonisa ukuthi yini eyaziwayo ukuthi isebenza.

Isinqumo siyindawo yomsebenzi nokuhlanganyela. Izinkokhelo azikho ezibekwe ngokukhethekile: ziya kwi-Treasury yephrojekthi, ekhokhela konke Local Solar System kwenzayo, njengoba kucacisiwe kukhasi le-donate.

Izinhlekelele ezine, iplanethi eyodwa

Isiphepho kanye nokuhlanganiswa kwamanzi. Indlela amanzi aqala ngayo ukuhlanganiswa, ngubani othintana naye, nokuthi yini esebenza ngokusemthethweni ukuyivimbela. Funda ubufakazi bokuhlushwa kwamanzi.
Ukulimala kwe-plastic. Kungani i-plastic iqhubeka, indlela efinyelela ngayo emfuleni, nokuthi yiziphi izimiso ezizoyinciphisa lapho ivela khona. Funda uubufakazi bokulimala kweplastiki.
Ikhwalithi yomoya. Izixhumanisi phakathi kokukhishwa kwegesi, ikhemikhali ye-océane kanye nokunakekelwa kwezempilo kwabantu. Funda i-air quality explainer.
Izinga lelwandle likhuphuka. Yini ephakamisa i-ocean, kungani lihamba ngokushesha, nokuthi yini okufanele yenziwe eminyakeni ezayo. Funda ubufakazi bokwehla komugqa wolwandle.

Indlela eyodwa evala

Akunamanzi amasha efika emhlabeni. Ilitha ngalinye elikhona lihamba ngemifula, imifula, ama-oceans kanye nezilwane eziphilayo iminyaka ezigidigidini, ngakho ilitha ngalinye esilimaza lihlala ngaphakathi kwendlela efanayo evalakayo. I-atmosphere isebenza ngendlela efanayo: i-carbon dioxide ekhishwa yisiteshi se-power station kumhlaba owodwa iqhutshwa emfuleni ngayinye.

Ukugqwala kulandela imali. Guqula izimali eziphezulu zesimo sezulu bese umfula uhamba ngokuhlanzekile ngezansi kwesimo sezulu.

Qala kumthombo

Ukuhlanza iziqhingi namabhishi kuyinto ebalulekile, futhi amaqembu amaningi awenza kahle. Sisebenza isikhashana ngaphambili. Silandela wonke umuntu obangela ukukhishwa kwegesi ezindaweni zokuhlinzeka, izimiso kanye nentengo ezikwenza ukukhishwa kwegesi kube ngcono kunezinga lokukhishwa kwegesi, futhi sichaza izindlela zokulungisa lezi zizathu. Lokhu kuyinhlanganisela yethu, Ukusebenziseka kweKapitali eSinansini, isho ukuthi: amathuluzi akhokhela abantu abazosebenzisana nawo yiwona ahlala isikhathi eside.

Ungasiza kanjani

Funda isichazamazwi esisodwa bese uyihlanganisa nomngane, ikilabhu noma iqembu lasendaweni. Ukuqondelana kulapho umsebenzi uqala khona.
Umethe i-footprint yakho yangempela emanzini. Thola ukuthi amanzi akho epayipi avelaphi nokuthi amanzi akho okugeza ahamba phi; amathuluzi amaningi okudla ashicilela izibuyekezo zobuningi.
Bhala imininingwane edolobhaneni lakho. Buza ikomiti lakho lasekhaya ukuthi lichitha malini ekuhlanzeni amanzi angcolile, ukuqapha amanzi omlilo nezulu, nokuthi ngabe izibuyekezo zitholakala kubantu.
Uzosiza ngekhono lakho. Gcina isichazamazwi, hlola isithombe noma kusiza ukwakha ukubukeka ngebhodi le-contribution board.
