5 Utyikityo lolwandle lwakho oluthandayo lungcolisiwe

Ngelixa ubhabha kwi-surf, izifo ezibangela ukugula zinokonwabela amanzi ecaleni kwakho. Ewe, imibutho yezempilo yoluntu yenza konke okusemandleni ukuvavanya ukhuseleko lwamanzi akho okuqubha, kodwa oko akuqinisekisi ukuba ulwandle lwakho luya kuvalwa xa iibhaktheriya zibonakala zisonakalisa ulonwabo.

"Kuthatha ixesha ukuvavanya iisampulu zamanzi, kwaye asivavanyi yonke imihla," uchaza uJon Devine, igqwetha eliphezulu kwi-Natural Resource Defense Council (NRDC), ebeka iliso kumanzi akho ukuba uhlala kwenye indawo. Unxweme, iGulf, okanye elinye laMachibi amakhulu. UDevine uthi kukho iingxoxo-mpikiswano phakathi kwezazinzulu malunga nokuba yintoni na eyenza amanqanaba "akhuselekileyo" ebhaktiriya.

Kutheni le nto kufuneka ukhathazeke ngayo nayiphi na le nto? Umpu (ohlala ungabonakali) odada emanzini akho unokubangela yonke into ukusuka kwiliso elipinki kunye nomkhuhlane wesisu ukuya kwi-hepatitis kunye ne-meningitis, utshilo u-Devine. Nokuba isanti ayikhuselekanga: Uphononongo lwakutsha nje kwifayile ye- Ijenali yaseMelika ye-Epidemiology bafumene abantu abahamba elwandle abemba entlabathini basengozini yokugula. Ababhali bathi isanti ifunxa zonke ezi zingcolisi manzi. Kodwa ngokungafaniyo namanzi, isanti ayithathelwa indawo yimvula esitsha okanye ihlanjululwe yimisinga. (Ngoko weqa isandcastles?)

Ukuzikhusela kungcoliseko, uDevine ucebisa ukuba undwendwele indawo yeNRDC, apho unokujonga khona iingxelo zamanzi malunga nolwandle oluthandayo. "Oko kuya kukunika umfanekiso wokuba ubunjani ubunjani bamanzi akho ngaphambili, utshilo. Amathuba alungile ukuba amanzi angcolile, ngokunjalo nesanti, esi sifundo singasentla sicebisa.

Kodwa awudingi chemistry ukukuxelela ukuba ukubetha amaza ngumbono ombi. Nazi iimpawu ezintlanu ulwandle lwakho luziindaba ezimbi.

1. Ivele yanetha. Ukuhamba kwamanzi esiphango ngomnye wemithombo ephezulu yongcoliseko lwamanzi, utshilo uDevine. Ukuba isiphango esikhulu sityhala indawo yakho, ukuhlala ngaphandle kwamanzi ubuncinane iiyure ezingama-24 kuyingcamango ehlakaniphile, ucebisa, wongezelela, "Iiyure ezingamashumi asixhenxe anesibini zingcono ngakumbi."

2. Ubona ngwevu. Jonga ulwandle lwakho. Ukuba ubona iindawo ezininzi zokupaka, iindlela ezigangathiweyo, kunye nezinye izakhiwo zekhonkrithi, yingxaki leyo, uDevine uyacacisa. Ngenxa yokuba umhlaba usebenza njengesiponji samanzi sendalo kunye nococo, uyanceda ukugcina amanzi amdaka angangeni kwindawo yakho yokubhukuda oyithandayo. Ikhonkrithi kunye nezinye izinto ezenziwe ngabantu zikholisa ukwenza okwahlukileyo, utshilo uDevine.

3. Ungatshangatshangisa kubasebenzi baselwandle. UDevine uthi amaphenyane akhupha zonke iintlobo zezinto ezinkulu, ukusuka kwindle eluhlaza ukuya kwipetroli. Kwakhona, ii-marinas zidla ngokuhlala kwindawo ezolileyo, ezikhuselweyo, apho amanzi afanayo angahlala iintsuku, eqokelela izinto ezingcolisa umzimba. Ukuqubha emanzini avulekileyo, athanda ukuphola kunye ne-choppier, ngumbono ongcono, u-Devine wongeza.

4. Imibhobho ikhona. Uninzi lwezixeko needolophu zineenkqubo zokuqokelela amanzi ezikhupha yonke into ngaphandle kwelindle ngqo emanzini endawo, ucacisa uDevine. Jonga nje imibhobho, ethi ibaleke iye ngqo (okanye ide ingene) elunxwemeni ngaphambi kokuba inyamalale phantsi komhlaba, utsho.

5. Ungqubeka kwezinye iindadi.Abantu bamdaka. Kwaye okukhona uzibona zikungqongile emanzini, kokukhona kunokwenzeka ukuba udibane neentsholongwane ezinxulumene nokugula ngenxa "yokuhlanjwa kwebhedi," ucacisa uLiz Purchia, isithethi se-EPA.
