Ukuhamba ngeNtetho: Kutheni iiKontraka ze-USAID kufuneka zikhathalele iiNyawo zeCarbon?

ISithuthi seKhontrakthi sikaRhulumente wase-US i-OASIS+ Sikhuthaza uZinzo kunye nokuNcitshiswa kokukhutshwa kweGesi yeGreenhouse Njengoko ihlabathi lizamazamana nefuthe lokutshintsha kwemozulu, oorhulumente, kunye nemibutho iya igxininisa ekunciphiseni ukukhutshwa kwegesi eluhlaza kunye nokukhuthaza ukuzinza. Urhulumente wase-US akanjalo kwaye uthathe amanyathelo okujongana nokutshintsha kwemozulu ngamaphulo ahlukeneyo, kuquka i-OASIS + isithuthi sekhontrakthi. Esi sithuthi sekhontrakthi, esiphuhliswe yi-General Services Administration (GSA), silungelelanisa ukufikelela kwiinkonzo zobugcisa, kubandakanywa neenkonzo ezinxulumene nokuzinza ezifana nolawulo lwekhabhoni. Ii-Arhente zikaRhulumente zase-US ngoku zifuna i-Scope 1 kunye ne-2 yokuVeza kwiiKontraka zamaNyathelo oZinzo Uninzi lwee-arhente zikarhulumente zase-US, ezifana ne-EPA (i-Arhente yoKhuseleko lweNdalo), i-DOD (iSebe lezoKhuselo), kunye ne-USAID (i-Arhente yase-United States yoPhuhliso lwaMazwe ngaMazwe), ngoku icela ukubhengezwa kwe-Scope 1 kunye ne-2 kwiikontraki zabo njengenxalenye yokuzinza kwazo. Ukukhutshwa kwe-Scope 1 kwenziwa ngokuthe ngqo ngumbutho, ngelixa i-Scope 2 ekhutshwayo ikhutshwa ngokungathanga ngqo eveliswa kusetyenziso lombutho lombane othengiweyo, ubushushu, okanye umphunga. Ukubhengezwa kweMida yoku-1 kunye nokukhutshwa kwe-2 kuNceda iiKontraka ziNciphisa i-Carbon Footprint kunye nokunyusa iNtsebenzo yoShishino Ukuchaza iMida yoku-1 kunye ne-2 ekhutshwayo kunokuncedisa iikontraka zichonge amathuba okunciphisa i-carbon footprint, ebalulekileyo ekunciphiseni ukukhutshwa kwegesi ye-greenhouse kunye nokucutha ukufudumala kwehlabathi. Ukongeza ekunciphiseni impembelelo yemozulu, uphando olwenziwa yi-UN lufumene ukuba iinkampani ezichaza ukusebenza kwazo kwemozulu zinembuyekezo ephezulu ye-67% kwi-equity kunezo zingenayo. Oku kuphakamisa ukuba ukunciphisa i-carbon footprint kungakhokelela kwiindleko zokusebenza eziphantsi, ukuphucula ukusebenza kakuhle, kunye nokhuphiswano olungakumbi lwemarike. INgxelo yokukhutshwa kwezinto ezikhutshwayo ibalulekile kooKontraka abaFuna iZibhambathiso zikaRhulumente, Ingakumbi ngokuJolisa kwe-USAID kuPhuhliso oluZinzileyo Ukunika ingxelo ngezinto ezikhutshwayo kunokuphucula ukusebenza kwemozulu yeekontraka, nto leyo ebaluleke kakhulu kwii-arhente zikarhulumente ezininzi xa zivavanya iikontraka. Oku kubaluleke ngakumbi kwi-USAID, etyala izigidi zeedola kuncedo lwamazwe ngamazwe ukukhuthaza uphuhliso oluzinzileyo kuqoqosho olusakhulayo. Iikontraka ze-USAID kufuneka ke ngoko ziphendule ngempembelelo yazo yemozulu ukubonisa ukuzinikela kuzinzo. Umlingane kunye Green Initiative Ukunciphisa iCarbon Footprint kunye nokuphucula ukusebenza ngokuzinza: Zibeke njengeNkokeli yeMozulu kuPhuhliso lwamazwe ngamazwe. Qhagamshelana nathi Namhlanje! Green Initiative sisatifikethi kunye neengcebiso zemozulu ezikhethekileyo ekuncedeni imibutho ukunciphisa i-carbon footprint kunye nokuphucula ukusebenza kwabo kokuzinza. Ngokusebenzisana kunye Green Initiative, iikontraki ze-USAID zinokufikelela kwiingcebiso zeengcali kunye nenkxaso yokuchonga amathuba okunciphisa i-carbon footprint, ukuphumeza amanyathelo okugcina, kunye nokuphucula ukusebenza kwemozulu. Green InitiativeIinkonzo zinokunceda iikontraki ukuba zifezekise imfuno ekhulayo yozinzo olusuka kwii-arhente zikarhulumente ezifana ne-USAID kwaye bazibeke njengeenkokeli kwi-climate-smart international development area. Ukongeza kwiinzuzo kwiikontraka, ukunika ingxelo nge-Scopes 1 kunye ne-2 ekhutshwayo kunokufaka isandla kwiinzame ezibanzi zikarhulumente wase-US ukujongana nokutshintsha kwemozulu. UMyalelo weSigqeba kaMongameli Biden wakutsha nje “kwiMngcipheko yezeMali eNxulumene neMozulu” uyalela ii-arhente zomanyano, kubandakanywa ii-arhente zekontraka ze-USG ezifana ne-USAID, ukuchonga nokubhengeza imingcipheko yezemali enxulumene nemozulu kwiinkqubo zabo, ii-asethi, kunye namatyala ajongene nawo. Lo Myalelo ufuna kwakhona ii-arhente ze-federal ukuba zidibanise uhlalutyo lomngcipheko olunxulumene nemozulu kwiinkqubo zabo zokuthenga. Ngokubhengeza unyawo lwabo lwekhabhoni, iikontraka ze-USAID zinokunceda ii-arhente zomdibaniso ezifana ne-USAID ukuba zihlangabezane nezi mfuno kwaye zibe negalelo kwinjongo ebanzi yokukhuthaza ukuzinza kunye nokunciphisa iimpembelelo zokutshintsha kwemozulu. Ukuqukumbela, iikontraka ze-USAID kufuneka zihambe intetho, xa kuziwa ekukhuthazeni uphuhliso oluzinzileyo kunye nemozulu-smart.

Ukutshona kwekhabhoni yendalo yoMhlaba: Ukuqonda indima ebalulekileyo ekutshintsheni kwemozulu Umhlaba unamandla amangalisayo okusebenzisa ikharbhon ngokwendalo, ngokusebenzisa iinkqubo ezahlukeneyo ezenzeka kwi-ikhosistim kuquka amahlathi, ingca, imigxobhozo, imihlaba kunye neelwandle. Ezi nkqubo zendalo, ezikwabizwa ngokuba “ziintsika,” zidlala indima ebalulekileyo ekususeni ikharbon diokside, eyona gesi enkulu yegreenhouse, kwiatmosfera ize iyigcine kwi-ikhosistim yoMhlaba. Nangona, uhlolisiso lwakutshanje lubonisa ukuba izinki zekhabhoni ezibalulekileyo njengeAmazonia, kusenokwenzeka ukuba azisayi kubamba ikharbhon eninzi njengoko ziyikhupha. (Denning, 2020) Iimpembelelo zoTshintsho lweMozulu kwiiNkqubo zokuThinjwa kweKhabhoni yeNdalo: Iziphazamiso kunye neZiphumo Ukunyuka kwamaqondo obushushu, ukutshintsha kweepateni zemvula, kunye nokutshintsha kwenkqubo yendalo ngenxa yokutshintsha kwemozulu kuphazamise iinkqubo zokuthinjwa kwekhabhoni yendalo. Ngokomzekelo, ukuphazamiseka okubangelwa yimozulu efana nomlilo wasendle, isomiso, kunye nezikhukhula kunokuphazamisa i-ecosystems, okukhokelela ekutshintsheni ukukhula kwezityalo, ukugcinwa kwekhabhoni kwimihlaba, kunye ne-oceanic carbon uptake. Ezi mpembelelo zidibeneyo zokutshintsha kwemozulu kunye nezinto ezenziwa ngabantu zinciphisa amandla oMhlaba okuhlutha ikhabhoni ngokwendalo, nto leyo enegalelo ekwandeni kwamaqondo omoya wekharbhon dayoksayidi kunye nokwenza mandundu utshintsho lwemozulu. Ukuphonononga okunokwenzeka kunye neMida yokuHlaziywa kweHlathi njengeSicwangciso-qhinga sokuNciphisa iMozulu Ukuchasana nemiphumo emibi ehambelana nokunyuka kwamanqanaba e-carbon dioxide emoyeni, ukuqinisekiswa kwemozulu kunye neenkampani zokucebisa ngokuqhelekileyo zisebenzisa indlela yokuvuselelwa kwehlathi. Le ndlela ikhethwa ngenxa yesixa esilinganiselweyo sokubekwa kweliso kunye nokugcinwa okufunekayo, iinzuzo ezongezelelweyo kwizinto eziphilayo kunye nolondolozo lomhlaba, kunye nokusebenza kwayo kweendleko. Iingcali zenzululwazi ziqikelela ukuvuselelwa kwehlathi kunamandla okugcina ukulingana kwe-25% ye-carbon pool ye-atmospheric (Bastin et al., 2019). Noko ke, ukuvuselelwa kwamahlathi kuyinkqubo edla ixesha yaye kufuna imimandla emikhulu yomhlaba, nto leyo edla ngokuphumela kungquzulwano kusetyenziso lomhlaba. Ngaphezu koko, ngokuqwalasela injongo ye-UN ye-ambitious yokufikelela ukungathathi hlangothi kwekhabhoni ngo-2050, akukho ngqiqweni ukuqingqa konke ukuncitshiswa kwekhabhoni kuya kwenzeka ngokuhlaziywa kwehlathi. I-Carbon Capture kunye nokugcinwa (CCS) kunye ne-Bioenergy kunye ne-Carbon Capture kunye nokugcinwa (BECCS): Ukukwazi, ukulinganiselwa, kunye nesidingo soTyalo-mali lwe-Decarbonization lunokuthi lwenzeke ngeCarbon Capture kunye nokugcinwa (CCS) kunye ne-Bioenergy kunye ne-Carbon Capture kunye nokugcinwa (BECCS). Obu buchwepheshe buvelayo bunamandla okunceda ukunciphisa ubukhulu bekhabhoni yenqwelomoya, inqanawa yaselwandle, kunye nemizi-mveliso enzima ethathwa ngokuba kunzima ukuyiphelisa, njengoko ineendlela ezizezinye ezinekhabhoni esezantsi ezikhoyo ngoku. Ngokomzekelo, uqikelelo lubonisa ukuba i-CCS inamandla okufaka kunye nokugcina ukuya kwi-45% ye-CO2 ekhutshwayo kwiinkqubo zoshishino. Nakwezona meko zilungileyo, obu buchwepheshe bulindeleke ukuba bunyuke kwimfuno ngokwaneleyo ukuze bususe ubuncinci iigigatons ezi-2 ngonyaka (i-GTPA) ye-carbon dioxide ngo-2050. Nangona kunjalo, sisesekuqaleni kophuhliso, kunye ne-CCS kunye ne-BECCS efuna ubuninzi bamandla ukuze isebenze kwaye ngaloo ndlela, ukuba ne-carbon capture performance esebenzayo. Uqikelelo lomhlalutyi lucebisa ukonyuka okuphindwe kayi-120 kwiimfuno zokuthathwa kwekhabhoni ukuba zenzeke ukuze obu buchwepheshe bukwazi ukufikelela kwiinjongo zemozulu ngo-2050 (McKinsey, 2022) Ke ngoko, utyalo-mali lwabucala kobu buchwepheshe bubalulekile ukuphumeza i-decarbonization yehlabathi njengoko kusenziwa kuphela ngenkqubela phambili kwisayensi yezinto eziphathekayo, ukuvelisa, kunye nokuphucula ubunjineli. Joyina iiNtshatsheli zeMozulu: Sebenzisana naboGreen InitiativeGreen Initiative, sizama ukunceda abathengi bethu ukuba bahlale benolwazi kunye nophuhliso lwamva nje kwisenzo semozulu kunye nokubonelela abathengi bethu ngezixhobo eziyimfuneko kunye nolwazi lokumisela isicwangciso sokuphumeza i-decarbonization, ukunciphisa i-carbon footprint, kunye negalelo kwikamva elizinzileyo.

Shiya Comment / Green Initiative

Abathengisi bokutya baseMelika baseLatin America banexhala malunga neempembelelo ze-EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism kuAgricultural and Food Trade Mechanism ye-European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) ibingumxholo oshushu wengxoxo mva nje, ingakumbi kumazwe asaphuhlayo athumela ngaphandle kwi-EU. I-CBAM ijolise ekuthinteleni ukuvuza kwekhabhoni ngokufuna abarhwebi ukuba bahlawule ixabiso lekhabhoni elilingana nelo lihlawulwe ngabavelisi be-EU, ukudala inqanaba lokurhweba. Nangona kunjalo, abathengisi baseMelika baseLatin America banenkxalabo yokuba oku kunokubabeka emngciphekweni. Ngokwengxelo ye-Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), i-CBAM ingaba neempembelelo ezinkulu kwintengiso yezolimo kunye nokutya eLatin America naseCaribbean. Inokunyusa iindleko zemveliso kubathengisi ngaphandle kwaye yenze iimveliso zabo zingakhuphisani kangako kwimarike ye-EU, okunokukhokelela ekwehleni kokuthumela ngaphandle kunye nengeniso yamafama aseLatin America kunye nabavelisi. Ukongeza, amazwe aseLatin America nawo anexhala malunga neziphumo zokusingqongileyo ze-CBAM. Ingxelo yeQela leBhanki yeHlabathi nge-CBAM iphawula ukuba amanye amazwe akuMbindi Merika aphakathi kwawona asemngciphekweni wokutshintsha kwemozulu yaye sele ejamelene nemiphumo yako. Izenzo zokuNcitshiswa kweMozulu Abenzi boKutya baseLatin America banokuthatha ukuNciphisa iMpembelelo ye-CBAM ye-EU Ukunceda ukunciphisa impembelelo ye-CBAM kunye nokujongana nesidingo esiphuthumayo sokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwegesi ye-greenhouse, abavelisi bokutya eLatin America bangathatha amanyathelo amaninzi okunciphisa imozulu. Ezi ziquka: Ngokuthatha ezi nyathelo zokunciphisa imozulu, abavelisi bokutya eLatin America banokunciphisa i-carbon footprint, baphucule ukugcinwa kweendlela zabo zokuvelisa, kwaye balungiselele iimpembelelo ezinokuthi zenzeke kwi-CBAM. Ukongeza, la manyathelo anokunceda ukunciphisa iindleko, ukwandisa ukusebenza kakuhle, kunye nokwandisa ukomelela kweenkqubo zemveliso yokutya xa ujongene nokutshintsha kwemozulu. Green Initiative Ibonelela ngeSatifikethi seMozulu kunye neeNkonzo zeeNgcebiso ukunceda abavelisi bokutya baseLatin America bajonge kwi-CBAM kwaye banciphise iCarbon Footprint yabo. Green Initiative inikezela ngesatifikethi semozulu kunye neenkonzo zeengcebiso malunga nesenzo semozulu ukuxhasa abavelisi bokutya baseLatin America ekunciphiseni i-carbon footprint yabo kunye nokuthobela imigaqo-nkqubo enokuthi ibe khona njenge-CBM. Iinkonzo zabo zinokunceda ukuchonga iindawo apho ukukhutshwa kungancitshiswa khona, ukuphuhlisa izicwangciso zokuphumeza iindlela zokulima ezizinzileyo, kunye nokuphumeza izisombululo zamandla avuselelekayo.
