Isijikelezi-langa sethu siyatshintsha. Ngokunjalo nobuntatheli bethu. Eli bali liyinxalenye yePlanethi yethu eTshintshayo, inyathelo leNdaba zeCBC ukubonisa nokucacisa iimpembelelo zokutshintsha kwemozulu kunye nento eyenziwayo.
I-Ginger Merpaw yaseLondon, e-Ontario inxibe iilensi zonxibelelwano phantse iminyaka engama-40 kwaye yayingenalo nofifi lokuba ii-microplastics kwiilensi ziya kuphelela kwimijelo yamanzi nakwindawo yokulahla inkunkuma.

Ukunciphisa impembelelo enkulu yokusingqongileyo kwezi lens zincinci, amakhulu eekliniki zamehlo kulo lonke elaseCanada athatha inxaxheba kwinkqubo ekhethekileyo ejolise ekuzisetyenzisweni ngokutsha kunye nokupakishwa kwazo.
I-Bausch+ Lomb Lonke uQhagamshelwano lubala iNkqubo yokuRisayikilishwa ikhuthaza abantu ukuba bafake abafowunelwa babo kwiiklinikhi ezithatha inxaxheba ukuze bapakishelwe ukurisayikilishwa.
“Usebenzisa kwakhona iplastiki kunye nezinto ezilolo hlobo, kodwa andizange ndicinge ukuba unokuphinda usebenzise abafowunelwa.Ndithe ndakuzikhupha, ndazifaka emgqomeni, ndiye ndacinga ukuba zinokonakala, ungaze ucinge nangantoni na,” utshilo uMerpaw.
Malunga neepesenti ezingama-20 zabantu abanxibe iilensi zoqhagamshelwano banokuzigungxula phantsi kwindlu yangasese okanye bazilahle emgqomeni, utshilo uHamis.Iklinikhi yakhe yenye yeendawo ezingama-250 zase-Ontario ezithatha inxaxheba kwinkqubo yokuhlaziya.
"Iilensi zoqhagamshelwano ngamanye amaxesha azihoywa xa kufikwa ekusetyenzisweni kwakhona, ke eli lithuba elihle lokunceda okusingqongileyo," utshilo.
Ngokutsho kweTerraCycle, inkampani yokuhlaziya iprojekthi ekhokelela kwiprojekthi, ngaphezu kwe-290 yezigidi zoqhagamshelwano ziphela kwiindawo zokulahla inkunkuma ngonyaka.Itotali inokunyuka njengoko inani loqhagamshelwano lwemihla ngemihla linyuka, batsho.
“Izinto ezincinci zongeza ngonyaka.Ukuba uneelensi zemihla ngemihla, ujongene neepere ezingama-365,” utshilo uWendy Sherman, umphathi weakhawunti ephezulu yeTerraCycle.I-TerraCycle ikwasebenza kunye nezinye iinkampani zempahla yabathengi, abathengisi kunye nezixeko, Umsebenzi wokuphinda usetyenziswe.
"Iilensi zoqhagamshelwano ziyinxalenye ebaluleke kakhulu kubantu abaninzi, kwaye xa iba yinto yesiqhelo, uhlala uyilibale impembelelo enayo kwimekobume."
Yaziswa kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, inkqubo iqokelele iilensi zoqhagamshelwano ezisisigidi esi-1 kunye nokupakishwa kwazo.
UHoson Kablawi unxibe iicontact lens yonke imihla ngaphezu kweminyaka elishumi. Wothuka akuva ukuba zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe. Udla ngokuzilahla kumgquba.
“Unxibelelwano aluhambi ndawo.Ayinguye wonke umntu ofuna ukuba neLasik, kwaye ayinguye wonke umntu ofuna ukunxiba iindondo, ngakumbi imaski, utshilo.
“Kule ndawo [yokulahla inkunkuma] kulapho kuveliswa khona imethane eninzi, nesebenza kakuhle ngakumbi kunekharbon diokside, ngoko ngokususa imiba ethile yenkunkuma, unokunciphisa impembelelo enokuba nayo.”
Iilensi ngokwazo - kunye neepakethe zazo zamadyunguza, iifoyile kunye neebhokisi - zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe.
Bathe Kablawi kunye noMerpaw, kunye neentombi zakhe, nabo banxiba iilensi zokunxibelelana kwaye ngoku bazakuqala ukuziqokelela ngenkonkxa ngaphambi kokuba bazinikezele kugqirha wamehlo wasekuhlaleni.

“Yindawo esihlala kuyo.Kulapho sihlala khona kwaye kufuneka siyikhathalele, kwaye ukuba lelinye inyathelo kwicala elifanelekileyo ukwenza umhlaba wethu ube nempilo, ndizimisele ukuyenza, ”wongeze watsho uMerpaw.
Ulwazi malunga neekliniki zamehlo ezithatha inxaxheba kulo lonke elaseKhanada zinokufumaneka kwiwebhusayithi yeTerraCycle
Eyona nto iphambili ye-CBC kukwenza iwebhusayithi efikelelekayo kubo bonke abantu baseKhanada, kubandakanywa nabo banengxaki yokubona, yokuva, yeemoto kunye nokuphazamiseka kwengqondo.
