Lamlungu lapitali, pafupifupi a 100 US Veterans for Peace anasonkhana ku Red Wing, Minnesota, pamsonkhano wa pachaka wapadziko lonse. Muzochitikira kwanga, Ankhondo a Mtendere mitu imakhala ndi zochitika "zopanda pake". Kaya akubwera limodzi kuderalo, kuderalo, kuderalo kapena ntchito yapadziko lonse, a Veterans amakhala ndi cholinga. Afuna kuthetsa chuma cha nkhondo ndikugwira ntchito yothetsa nkhondo zonse. Anthu a ku Minnesota, ambiri mwa anzawo akale, anasonkhana m'chipinda chachikulu cha khola lakumidzi. Otsogolera atalandilidwa mwaubwenzi, ophunzira adakhazikika kuti akwaniritse mutu wa chaka chino: "Nkhondo pa nyengo yathu.
Iwo anaitanira Dr. James Hansen, Adjunct Pulofesa ku Earth Institute ya Columbia University, kuti alankhule kudzera pa Skype pochepetsa zovuta zakusintha kwanyengo. Nthawi zina amatchedwa "tate wa kutentha kwanyengo", Dr. Hansen wakhala akuchenjeza anthu kwazaka zambiri ndikuneneratu molondola zakutulutsa kwa mafuta. Tsopano akuyesetsa kuti pakhale ndalama zogulira mafuta kuchokera ku zotsalira za mafuta pogwiritsa ntchito ndalama za kaboni pazomwe zimatulutsa mpweya ndi zopindulitsa zomwe zimabwezeredwa kwa anthu.
Dr. Hansen akuganiza zopanga zolimbikitsa pamsika kwa amalonda kuti apange mphamvu ndi zopangira zomwe sizitsika kaboni komanso zopanda kaboni. "Amene amapindula kwambiri ndi kuchepa kwakukulu kwa kaboni kugwiritsa ntchito kungathenso phindu lalikulu. Majekesero amasonyeza kuti njira imeneyi ingachepetse mpweya wa carbon wa US kuposa theka mkati mwa zaka 20 - ndipo amapanga ntchito zatsopano za 3 miliyoni panthawiyi. "
Polimbikitsa akuluakulu kuti azisamalira achinyamata komanso mibadwo yamtsogolo, a Dr. Hansen akutsutsa omwe akuwatcha kuti "njira yopanda phindu yogulitsa malonda." Njira imeneyi imalephera kupanga mafuta kuti azilipira ndalama kudziko, “motero kulola kuti mankhwala osokoneza bongo apitirire ndi kulimbikitsa 'malamulo, kubereka, ana, kubowola' kuti atenge mafuta onse omwe angapezeke. "
Kupanga mafuta oti "azilipira zonse" kungatanthauze ndalama zolipirira zomwe owonongera amapereka kumadera akuwotcha makala, mafuta ndi gasi. Anthu akomweko amadwala ndikuphedwa ndi kuwonongeka kwa mpweya, ndikusowa chakudya ndi chilala kapena kuwombedwa kapena kumizidwa ndi mphepo zomwe zimachitika chifukwa cha kusintha kwa nyengo, zimabweretsa maboma omwe mabizinesi amayenera kubweza.
Kodi ndizowona ziti zomwe zimapangitsa kuti anthu azipeza mafuta? Malinga ndi kafukufuku waposachedwa wa International Monetary Fund (IMF), makampani opanga mafuta akupindula nawo Zothandizira padziko lonse za $ 5.3tn (£ 3.4tn) pachaka, $ 10 milioni pa miniti, miniti iliyonse, tsiku ndi tsiku.
The Guardian malipoti kuti ndalama za $ 5.3tn zowonjezerapo za 2015 zili zazikulu kuposa ndalama zonse zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito pa maboma onse a dziko lapansi.
Dr. Hansen adayamba nkhani yake pozindikira kuti, m'mbiri, mphamvu ndizofunikira popewa ntchito yaukapolo. Amakhulupirira kuti mphamvu zina kuchokera ku zida za nyukiliya tsopano ndizofunikira kuti mayiko monga China ndi India atulutse unyinji wa anthu awo muumphawi. Ambiri otsutsa amatsutsa kwambiri Kuitanitsa kwa Hansen kudalira mphamvu ya nyukiliya, kutchula ngozi za ma radiation, ngozi, ndi mavuto kusungirako zinyalala za nyukiliya, makamaka pamene zonyansa zotayika zimasungidwa m'madera omwe anthu alibe mphamvu kapena mphamvu pa iwo omwe amatha kusankha komwe angatumize zinyalala za nyukiliya.
Anthu ena otsutsa amanena kuti "mphamvu ya nyukiliya imakhala yoopsa kwambiri, mtengo wamtengo wapatali kuti azionedwa kuti ndi mbali yaikulu ya positi ya carbon carbon post. "
Wolemba mabuku ndi wotsutsa boma George Monbiot, wolemba buku la kutalika kwa nyengo, Kutentha, amanenanso kuti mphamvu ya zida za nyukiliya imawopseza "omwe ali nacho" komanso "alibe" mofanana. Zotsatira zoyipa kwambiri zamagetsi amakala amoto, pomwe mbiri yakale yakhala ikuwonongeka kwambiri kuposa zida za nyukiliya, zimalumikizidwa ndi migodi ndi mafakitale omwe amakhala ndi anthu omwe atha kukhala osowa chuma kapena osauka.
Kuwonongeka kwanyengo komwe kungayambitsidwe ndi nyengo kungakhale koopsa kwambiri komanso komaliza ndi zida za nyukiliya zomwe zimadalira grid zokonzeka kusungunuka ndi chuma chathu. Koma ndikofunikira kukumbukira kuti zida zathu zowopsa - zambiri zomwe zilinso ndi zida za nyukiliya - zasungidwa ndendende kuti zithandizire otsogola kuthana ndi zipolowe zandale zomwe umphawi ndi kusimidwa zimayendetsa magulu. Kusintha kwanyengo, ngati sitingachedwe, sikungolonjeza umphawi ndi kukhumudwa pamlingo womwe sunachitikepo, komanso nkhondo - pamlingo, ndi zida, zomwe zitha kukhala zoyipa kwambiri kuposa zoopsa zomwe zimabwera chifukwa chakusankha kwathu mphamvu. Mavuto ankhondo apadziko lapansi, mavuto ake anyengo, komanso kuchepa kwachuma komwe kumalemetsa anthu osauka kulumikizidwa.
Dr. Hansen akuganiza kuti boma la China ndi asayansi aku China atha kupeza chuma kuti apange njira zina zopangira mafuta, kuphatikiza mphamvu zamagetsi za nyukiliya. Anatinso China ikukumana ndi vuto lotha kutaya mizinda yam'mbali mwa nyanja chifukwa cha kutentha kwanyengo komanso kufalikira kwachangu kwa madzi oundana.
Zing'onozing'ono kwambiri zothetsera kuthetsa kwa mankhwala osokoneza bongo m'mitundu yambiri imakhudza mafakitale a zinyama zamtundu wa ndale ndi azinthu zofalitsa komanso maganizo ochepa a ndale. Choncho nkotheka kuti utsogoleri ukutsogolera dziko kukhala ndi ndondomeko zamagetsi zowonjezera zikhoza kuchitika ku China, kumene atsogoleri ali olemera mu maphunziro a sayansi ndi sayansi ndikulamulira mtundu umene uli ndi mbiri yakuyang'ana nthawi yaitali. Ngakhale kuti mpweya wa CO wa mpweya wawonjezeka pamwamba pa amitundu ena, China ili ndi zifukwa zochotsera mafuta oyendetsa galimotoyo mofulumira kwambiri. China ili ndi anthu mazana angapo miliyoni omwe amakhala mumtunda wa 25 wamtunda, ndipo dzikoli likuvutika kwambiri chifukwa cha kuwonjezeka kwa chilala, kusefukira kwa madzi, ndi mkuntho zomwe zidzapitilira kutentha kwa dziko. China ikuzindikiranso kuti ndibwino kuti tipewe mankhwala osokoneza bongo omwe amafanana ndi a United States. Kotero China wakhala mtsogoleri wa dziko lonse pakukula mphamvu zowonjezera mphamvu, mphamvu zowonjezereka, ndi mphamvu ya nyukiliya.
Nchiyani chikusowa pachithunzichi? A Veterans for Peace amakhulupirira kwambiri kuthetsa nkhondo zonse. Kukulitsa kukana nkhondo mopanda chiwawa kungasinthe mwamphamvu zomwe asitikali apadziko lonse lapansi, makamaka asitikali aku US, padziko lonse lapansi. Pofuna kuteteza kupezeka kwa mafuta ndi mafuta padziko lonse lapansi, asitikali aku US awotcha mitsinje yamafuta, ndikuwononga chiyembekezo chamibadwo yamtsogolo mdzina lakupha ndi kupundula anthu akumadera omwe US yadzetsa nkhondo zosankha, kutha chisokonezo.
Ziphuphu zachilengedwe padziko lonse lapansi komanso kuwononga mwachangu chuma chosasunthika ndichowonetsanso, ngati kuchedwa kwambiri, njira zopangira chisokonezo ndi imfa pamlingo waukulu. Kusokonekera kwa chuma, mphamvu zofunikira kwambiri zaumunthu, ndi zinanso. Ofufuza pa Kusintha kwa Maiko a Mayiko kupeza kuti "3 trilioni ya madola omwe anagwiritsidwa ntchito pomenyana ndi Iraq idzagwirizanitsa ndalama zonse zapadziko lonse zowonjezera mphamvu zowonjezera pakati pa tsopano ndi 2030 kuti zitsitsimutse kutentha kwa dziko."
John Lawrence analemba kuti "United States imapereka zoposa 30% za mpweya wotentha padziko lonse, yopangidwa ndi 5% ya anthu padziko lapansi. Nthawi yomweyo ndalama zophunzitsira, zamphamvu, zachilengedwe, ntchito zothandiza anthu, nyumba ndi kukhazikitsa ntchito zatsopano, zonse pamodzi, ndizochepera kuposa bajeti. ” Ndikukhulupirira kuti mphamvu ya "carbon low" komanso "no kaboni" iyenera kulipidwa pothana ndi nkhondo. Lawrence akuyenera kunena kuti US ikuyenera kuwona mavuto ndi kusamvana komwe kumachitika chifukwa cha kusintha kwa nyengo ngati "mwayi wogwirira ntchito limodzi ndi mayiko ena kuti athane ndi mavuto ake." Koma kupenga kwa chilakiko kuyenera kutha ntchito iliyonse yolumikizidwa itakhala yotheka.
Zachisoni, zachisoni, omenyera ufulu waku US ambiri amamvetsetsa mtengo wankhondo. Ndidafunsa Msirikali wakale waku US wamtendere wokhala ku Mankato, MN, za kukhala bwino kwa Omenyera Nkhondo ku Iraq. Anandiuza kuti mu Epulo, atsogoleri omenyera nkhondo ku US ku Mankato Campus State ku Minnesota, adakhala masiku 22 akusonkhana tsiku lililonse, mvula kapena kuwala, kuti achite zisudzo 22 akukankha-ups podziwa asilikali a nkhondo a 22 tsiku - pafupifupi ola limodzi - akudzipha tsopano ku US Iwo adayitana anthu a Mankato kuti abwere kumsasa ndi kukacheza nawo.
Ino ndi nthawi yosaiwalika, kuyambitsa chimphepo champhamvu chazovuta pakukhalitsa kwa zamoyo zathu, mkuntho womwe sitingathe kuwuthana popanda "manja onse padenga." Aliyense amene adzagwire ntchito pambali pathu, ndipo akafika msanga, tili ndi zolemetsa zogawana ndi ena ambiri omwe akukweza kale momwe angathere, ena atenga awo mwa kusankha, ena olemedwa mopitilira ndi ambuye adyera. Veterans for Peace amagwira ntchito yopulumutsa sitimayo m'malo modikirira kuti imire.
Ambiri aife sitinapirirepo zoopsa zomwe zimayendetsa omenyera ufulu wa 22 patsiku, ndipo osauka osawerengeka m'maiko apadziko lonse lapansi omwe ufumu waku US wakhudza, mpaka kukhumudwa. Ndikufuna kuganiza kuti tikhoza kukweza chiyembekezo chathu mwina ndikubweretsa chitonthozo kwa iwo omwe atizungulira pogawana nawo zinthu, kuyang'anira ulamuliro, ndikuphunzira kujowina ena olimba mtima pantchito yomwe ilipo.
