Kule mihla, sonke sihlala siva amagama anje “Ukufudumala kweHlabathi” kunye “noTshintsho lweMozulu”, akunjalo? Ngoko ke njengesisombululo koku, iinkampani ezinkulu kunye namashishini enza izinto ezahlukeneyo ukunciphisa ‘iCarbon Footprint’ yawo, oko kukuthi, ubungakanani beegesi eziyingozi ezongezwa kwindalo esingqongileyo ngenxa yemisebenzi yazo. Ezinye iinkampani zisebenza nzima ukunciphisa izinto ezifana nomsi okhutshwa kwiifektri zazo. Kodwa ezinye iinkampani zenza into eyahlukileyo. Oko kukuthi, ukuze zibuyisele umonakalo eziwenzayo kwindalo esingqongileyo, zenza into elungileyo kwindalo esingqongileyo kwenye indawo ehlabathini. Yiloo nto siyibiza ngokuba yiCarbon Offset .
Kulungile, yintoni ke le Carbon Offset?
Kalula nje, kukho iindlela ezimbini zokutolika oku.
Indlela yokuqala kukuba xa igesi eyingozi yokutshisa umhlaba (GHG) ikhutshwa kwenye indawo yehlabathi, ubungakanani baloo gesi buyancitshiswa okanye bususwe emoyeni kwenye indawo ukuze kulungiswe umonakalo owenzekileyo. Cinga ngayo njengokutyala imithi. Oko kwenziwa yimithi kukufunxa ikharbon dioxide (CO2) emoyeni. Yinto efana naleyo.
Indlela yesibini yenziwa ngumbutho okanye ngumntu. Kulapho umntu okanye inkampani ithenga khona “iikredithi zekhabhoni” ukuze ihlawulele ubungakanani bekhabhoni abayikhuphayo kwindalo esingqongileyo ngenxa yemisebenzi yabo (umzekelo, iindiza , iifektri). Ikredithi enye yekhabhoni sisiqinisekiso esimele ukususwa kwetoni enye yekhabhoni diokside okanye enye igesi yokushisa ubushushu emoyeni kwenye indawo ehlabathini. Ezi zatifikethi zikhutshwa ngoorhulumente okanye imibutho ezimeleyo eyaziwayo.
Imali efunyenwe ngokuthengisa ezi khredithi zekhabhoni idla ngokusetyenziselwa iiprojekthi ezinobuhlobo nokusingqongileyo. Ezi projekthi zinokumisa ukukhutshwa kweegesi eziyingozi okanye zisuse isixa segesi emoyeni esilingana nesixa esikhutshwa yinkampani ebangele umonakalo.
Ukuze le ndlela yamkelwe njengechanekileyo ngokwenene, ukunciphisa ukukhutshwa komoya ongcolileyo kwiprojekthi efanelekileyo kufuneka kube nomlinganiselo, kube yinyani, kwaye kube ngunaphakade .
Isebenza njani le ndlela yeCarbon Offset?
Ixesha elininzi, imibutho kunye nabantu ngabanye benza oku ngokuzithandela. Ngamanye amaxesha, bakwenza oku ukuze bathobele imithetho nemigaqo karhulumente. Khawucinge ngenkampani enkulu eqondayo ukuba akunakwenzeka ukunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwayo kwekhabhoni ngaphandle kokuchaphazela imisebenzi yayo yemihla ngemihla. Oko kwenziwa yiloo nkampani kukuthenga iikhredithi zekhabhoni kumntu okanye kumbutho owenza iprojekthi enobuhlobo nokusingqongileyo kwenye indawo.
Masiqonde oku ngomnye umzekelo olula.
Khawucinge ukuba kufuneka uhambe ngenqwelo moya rhoqo emsebenzini wakho. Siyazi ukuba ukuhamba ngenqwelo moya kongeza ikhabhoni eninzi kwindalo esingqongileyo. Kodwa awunakuyimisa le ndlela yokuhamba. Ngoko ke ugqiba ekubeni wenze iCarbon Offsetting.
Okokuqala, ubala ukuba ingakanani ikhabhoni eyongeziweyo kwiinqwelomoya zakho kwindalo esingqongileyo (kukho izixhobo ezikhethekileyo ezikwi-intanethi zoku). Emva koko, uthenga isixa esifanelekileyo seekhredithi zekhabhoni kumthengisi othembekileyo. Umthengisi ugcina imali yakhe aze atyale imali eseleyo kwinto efana neprojekthi yokutyala imithi.
Wakuba uthenge ezi khredithi, uza kufumana isatifikethi sokuthobela imithetho. Oku kungqina ukuba uthathe amanyathelo okunciphisa umngcipheko wakho wekhabhoni, ngokungathanga ngqo. Kwiinkampani, kunokubonisa nokuba ziyayithobela imithetho yokusingqongileyo.
Xa belinganisa indlela inkampani ezinzileyo ngayo, babala ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni ngokuthabatha inani leekhabhoni abazithengileyo kwikhabhoni yabo iyonke. Ukuba wena okanye inkampani ningabonisa ukuba bathenge inani leekhabhoni ezilingana nekhabhoni yabo, bathathwa “njenge-carbon-neutral,” oko kuthetha ukuba abanayo i-carbon emissions engenanto.
Eminye imizekelo yeeprojekthi zeCarbon Offset
Kukho iiprojekthi ezahlukeneyo ze-carbon offset ezisebenza kwihlabathi liphela. Ezi zinokwahlulwa zibe ziintlobo ezimbini eziphambili. Enye yiprojekthi ezithintela iigesi ezibangela ukufudumala komhlaba (GHG) ukuba zongezwe kwindalo esingqongileyo. Enye yiprojekthi ezinciphisa ubungakanani beegesi ezikhoyo.
Nazi ezinye zemizekelo emihle yale projekthi.
| Uhlobo lweprojekthi | Kwenzekani? |
|---|---|
| Ukulima amahlathi | Iiprojekthi zokutyala imithi. Imithi ifunxa kwaye igcine ikharbon diokside emoyeni. |
| Umoya ovuselelekayo | Izinto ezifana neefama zomoya kunye neeprojekthi zamandla elanga. Oku kunciphisa ukuxhomekeka kumafutha efosili afana namalahle kunye nepetroli. |
| Ulawulo lweNdawo yokulahla inkunkuma | Iiprojekthi zokubamba igesi ye-methane (igesi enamandla kakhulu yokufudumala komhlaba) ekhutshwa kwiindawo zokulahla inkunkuma. |
| Ezolimo | Abalimi basebenzisa iindlela ezikhethekileyo zokukhulisa izityalo ngokufanelekileyo, benciphisa inkunkuma. |
| Ulawulo lwaManzi | Ukubonelela ngamanzi acocekileyo kwiindawo ezinamanzi angcolileyo, ngaloo ndlela kuthintela ukutsha kweenkuni kunye nepetroli ukuze zibilise okanye zicoce amanzi. |
Zithini izinto ezilungileyo nezingalunganga ngale ndlela?
Kukho abo baxhasayo kunye nabo bachasene nale nkqubo yeCarbon Offset.
Icala elihle (iingenelo) zale ndlela
Abaxhasi bathi, ukuba kwenziwe ngendlela eyiyo, eli lithuba elihle kwiinkampani lokufikelela kwi-net-zero emissions. Kwaye ngezi projekthi:
- Ulimo oluzinzileyo lunokudalwa.
- Iinkqubo zendalo zinokulawulwa.
- Iinkqubo zamandla ahlaziyekayo zinokuphuhliswa.
- Ungancedisa ekugcinweni kwendalo.
Ingxaki yale ndlela (iingxaki)
Kodwa abachasi bathi oku kufana “nokuhlamba izityalo.” Oko kukuthi, inkampani ibhengeza ngobuxoki ukuba iimveliso zayo zinobuhlobo nokusingqongileyo kunokuba zinjalo ngokwenene. Umzekelo, inkampani inganikela ngemali kwiprojekthi efana nale ize ibonise ihlabathi, “Sisindisa okusingqongileyo,” ngaphandle kokwenza nantoni na ukunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwayo kwekhabhoni. Abagxeki bathi oku kuphazamisa umsebenzi wokwenyani ekufuneka wenziwe ukulwa notshintsho lwemozulu.
Ngaphezu koko, kufunyenwe ukuba ezinye iiprojekthi zokunciphisa iindleko zenziwe ngaphandle kwemvume yabantu bomthonyama abahlala kuloo mhlaba. Oku kuye kwabangela ukuba balahlekelwe yindlela abaphila ngayo kwaye kubekho ungcoliseko olungakumbi kwezo ndawo.
Ngoko ke, ngaba le Carbon Offset iphumelele ngokwenene?
Ngokwethiyori, inkqubo yeCarbon Offsets ingaphumelela. Ngenxa yokuba iigesi zegreenhouse (GHG) azihlali ndaweninye, zisasazeka emoyeni. Ngoko ke ukunciphisa ubungakanani bezo gesi ndaweni ithile emhlabeni yinto elungileyo echaphazela ihlabathi liphela.
Kodwa ingxaki ikukuphumeza oku ngokusebenzayo.
Ukuze i-carbon offset iphumelele, le projekthi kufuneka ibonakalise ukuba inciphise ukukhutshwa kwegesi. Ikwafuna izixhobo ezibizayo ukulinganisa ngokuchanekileyo ubungakanani bokukhutshwa kwegesi. Ikwafuna neendlela kunye nemigangatho ebhalwe kakuhle.
Ngenxa yale mingeni, ayizizo zonke iiprojekthi ze-offset ezifikelela kwiziphumo ezifunekayo. Ke ngoko, kunzima ukuqiniseka nge-100% ukuba inkqubo ye-Carbon Offset iyasebenza kwaye iyawanciphisa ngokwenene amanqanaba e-GHG kwindalo esingqongileyo.
Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya
- I-Carbon Offset ithetha ukunikela ngemali kwiprojekthi eyenza into elungileyo kwindalo esingqongileyo kwenye indawo ehlabathini, ukuze inciphise ubungakanani bekhabhoni eyongezwa zizenzo zakho kwindalo esingqongileyo.
- Oku kwenziwa ngokuthenga "iikredithi zekhabhoni." Ikredithi enye sisiqinisekiso esibonisa umlinganiselo wetoni enye yekhabhoni.
- Imizekelo yeeprojekthi ezinjalo ibandakanya ukutyala imithi nokwakha iifama zomoya.
- Nangona abanye beyincoma le nkqubo, abanye bathi “kukuyilungisa ngokwemvelo” ziinkampani ukuze zibalekele uxanduva lwazo lokwenene.
- Ukuze le ndlela iphumelele, kuyimfuneko ukuqinisekisa ukuba iiprojekthi ezikuthethwa ngazo zinciphisa ngokwenene, ngokulinganisa, nangokusisigxina ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni.
ukususwa kwekhabhoni, ukufudumala kwehlabathi, okusingqongileyo, utshintsho lwemozulu, iigesi ezigcina ubushushu, unyawo lwekhabhoni
