Boma la UK lalengeza kuletsa ma wipes apulasitiki

 

Posachedwapa boma la Britain lalengeza za kufunika kogwiritsa ntchito ma wipes onyowa, makamaka omwe ali ndi pulasitiki. Lamuloli, lomwe likuletsa kugwiritsa ntchito ma wipes apulasitiki, likubwera ngati yankho ku nkhawa zomwe zikukulirakulira za zotsatira za zinthuzi pa chilengedwe ndi thanzi. Ma wipes apulasitiki, omwe amadziwika kuti ma wipes onyowa kapena ma wipes a ana, akhala chisankho chodziwika bwino pa ukhondo wa munthu payekha komanso kuyeretsa. Komabe, kapangidwe kake kakuyambitsa mantha chifukwa cha kuvulaza komwe kungabweretse pa thanzi la anthu komanso chilengedwe.

Ma wipes apulasitiki amadziwika kuti amagawika pakapita nthawi kukhala mapulasitiki ang'onoang'ono, zomwe zalumikizidwa ndi zotsatirapo zoipa pa thanzi la anthu komanso kusokonekera kwa zachilengedwe. Kafukufuku wasonyeza kuti mapulasitiki ang'onoang'ono awa amatha kusonkhana m'chilengedwe, ndipo kafukufuku waposachedwa wavumbula kuti ma wipes 20 amapezeka pa mamita 100 m'mphepete mwa nyanja zosiyanasiyana ku UK. Akalowa m'madzi, ma wipes okhala ndi pulasitiki amatha kusonkhanitsa zinthu zodetsa zamoyo ndi mankhwala, zomwe zimapangitsa kuti nyama ndi anthu azikumana ndi vutoli. Kuchulukana kwa mapulasitiki ang'onoang'ono kumeneku sikungokhudza chilengedwe chachilengedwe komanso kumawonjezera chiopsezo cha kuipitsidwa m'malo oyeretsera madzi akuda komanso kumathandizira kuwonongeka kwa magombe ndi zimbudzi.

Kuletsa ma wipes okhala ndi pulasitiki cholinga chake ndi kuchepetsa kuipitsidwa kwa pulasitiki ndi ma microplastic, zomwe pamapeto pake zipindulitsa chilengedwe komanso thanzi la anthu. Opanga malamulo amanena kuti poletsa kugwiritsa ntchito ma wipes awa, kuchuluka kwa ma microplastic omwe amathera m'malo oyeretsera madzi otayidwa chifukwa chotaya molakwika kudzachepa kwambiri. Izi, zidzakhudzanso magombe ndi zimbudzi, zomwe zingathandize kusunga malo achilengedwe awa kwa mibadwo yamtsogolo.

Bungwe la European Nonwovens Association (EDANA) lawonetsa kuti likugwirizana ndi lamuloli, povomereza khama lomwe makampani opanga ma wipes ku UK achita pochepetsa kugwiritsa ntchito pulasitiki m'ma wipes apakhomo. Bungweli lagogomezera kufunika kosintha kugwiritsa ntchito ma wipes apakhomo opanda pulasitiki ndipo lawonetsa kudzipereka kwake kugwira ntchito ndi boma kuti likhazikitse ndikupititsa patsogolo ntchitoyi.

Poyankha chiletsochi, makampani omwe ali mumakampani opanga ma wipes akhala akufufuza zinthu zina ndi njira zopangira. Mwachitsanzo, kampani ya Johnson & Johnson's Neutrogena yagwirizana ndi kampani ya Lenzing's Veocel fiber kuti asinthe ma wipes ake ochotsera zodzoladzola kukhala 100% ulusi wochokera ku zomera. Pogwiritsa ntchito ulusi wa Veocel wopangidwa ndi matabwa obwezerezedwanso, ochokera ku nkhalango zosamalidwa bwino komanso zovomerezeka, ma wipes a kampaniyo tsopano amatha kupangidwanso m'nyumba mkati mwa masiku 35, zomwe zimathandiza kuchepetsa zinyalala zomwe zimathera m'malo otayira zinyalala.

Kusintha kwa njira zina zokhazikika komanso zosawononga chilengedwe kukuwonetsa kuzindikira kwakukulu kwa kufunika kothana ndi mavuto azachilengedwe a zinthu zomwe ogula amagwiritsa ntchito. Ndi kuletsa ma wipes apulasitiki, pali mwayi kwa makampani opanga ma wipes kuti apange zinthu zatsopano ndikupanga zinthu zomwe sizothandiza komanso zomwe zimateteza chilengedwe. Mwa kulandira zipangizo zokhazikika komanso njira zopangira, makampani angathandize kuchepetsa kuipitsa pulasitiki ndikulimbikitsa tsogolo labwino komanso lokhazikika.

Pomaliza, chisankho cha boma la Britain choletsa ma wipes okhala ndi pulasitiki chikuyimira gawo lofunika kwambiri pothana ndi mavuto azachilengedwe ndi thanzi okhudzana ndi zinthuzi. Izi zathandiza mabungwe opanga ma wipes ndipo zalimbikitsa makampani kufufuza njira zina zokhazikika. Pamene makampani opanga ma wipes akupitilizabe kusintha, pali mwayi wokulirapo woika patsogolo kukhazikika kwa chilengedwe ndikupereka kwa ogula zinthu zomwe zikugwirizana ndi zomwe zili. Pomaliza, kuletsa ma wipes apulasitiki kukuyimira gawo labwino lochepetsa kuipitsa kwa pulasitiki ndikulimbikitsa malo oyera komanso athanzi kwa onse.
