Ndiri kunyara nezvinhu zviviri zvakadaro, kunyangwe kudada kwangu kose.
Imwe ndeyekuti isu vanhu vakuru tinosiya vana kuti vaone kuita kwetsika uye kubatanidzwa kwakakomba kwezvematongerwo enyika netsaona pane kuvadzidzisa zvakarongeka uye pasi rose, sekunge isu hatifungi kuti vanoda hupenyu hune chinangwa, sekunge isu tinofungidzira hupenyu hwakanaka ndiye munhu akakwana. ideal. Tiri kukumbira vana kuti vatungamire nzira pane zvakatipoteredza, nekuti isu - ndiri kutaura pamwe chete kune wese munhu anopfuura makumi matatu, vanhu Bob Dylan vakati vasavimbe kusvika adarika makumi matatu - isu hatisi kuzviita, uye vana vari kutora. isu kumatare, uye hurumende yedu iri kubvumira vamwe vayo vanotungamirira vaparadzi vezvakatipoteredza kuti vave vadziviriri vakazvipira pamwe chete (ungafungidzira here kuzvipira kunomhan'arirwa pamwe chete nomumwe munhu akatarisana nedare redzimhosva? Aiwa, chimbomira, undimhan'arewo!), uye nevanozvipira vadziviriri, kusanganisira National Association of Manufacturers, vari kupa zvikwata zvemagweta zvingangodhura kupfuura zvikoro izvo Hallie naTravis vanopinda, uye matare ari kutonga kuti ikodzero yemunhu asiri-vanhu anonzi masangano. kuparadza kugara kwepasi kumunhu wese, kunyangwe paine pfungwa iri pachena inoti makambani acharega kuvapo zvakare.
Vana vedu vanofanira kuita zvatinotaura kana sezvatinoita? Kana! Vanofanira kumhanya vakananga kwakapesana nechero chatabata. Pane zvisizvo, hongu. Vamwe vedu vanoedza zvishoma. Asi idanho repamusoro rekubvisa dzidziso yetsika iyo inotiita kuti titaure mazwi akadai sekuti "rasa izvi kure" sekunge pane kure, kana kunyora kuparadzwa kwesango "kukura kwehupfumi," kana kunetseka nezveanonzi peak oil. uye kuti tichararama sei kana mafuta apera, kunyange zvazvo takatowana zvakapetwa kashanu zvatinogona kupisa zvakachengeteka uye tichiri kukwanisa kurarama padombo iri rakanaka.
Asi vana vakasiyana. Kudiwa kwekuchengetedza pasi nekushandisa simba rakachena kunyangwe zvichireva zvipingamupinyi zvishoma kana imwe njodzi yakakomba yemunhu, haisati yajairika kana kushamisa kumwana kupfuura hafu yezvimwe zvinhu zvavanounzwa nazvo kekutanga, senge algebra, kana kushambira kusangana, kana babamunini. Havana kupedza makore akawanda vachiudzwa kuti renewable energy haishande. Havana kuvandudza pfungwa yakanyatsorongeka yekuda nyika iyo inotitendera kuti tirambe tichitenda kuti simba rinodzokororwa harigone kushanda kunyangwe tichinzwa nezvaro kushanda kune dzimwe nyika. (Ndiyo German fizikisi!)
Vatungamiri vedu vechidiki vane makore mashoma ekudzidziswa mune zvakanzi naMartin Luther King Jr. Vakuru vanovhara nzira mumatare, saka vana vanoenda kumigwagwa, vanoronga uye vanovhiringidza uye vanodzidzisa. Uye saka ivo vanofanirwa, asi ivo vari kupesana nehurongwa hwedzidzo uye hurongwa hwebasa uye hurongwa hwevaraidzo inowanzovataurira kuti havana simba, kuti shanduko yakakomba haigoneki, uye kuti chinhu chinonyanya kukosha chaunogona kuita kuvhota.
Zvino, vanhu vakuru vachiudzana kuti chinhu chikuru chavanogona kuvhota chakashata, asi kutaura kuti kuvana vasati vakura zvokukwanisa kuvhota kwakafanana nokuvaudza kuti vasaita chinhu. Tinoda vashoma muzana vehuwandu hwedu vasingaite zvakapesana nechero chinhu, kurarama uye kufema kwakazvitsaurira activism. Tinoda kugadzirwa kusiri kwechisimba kuramba, kudzidziswazve, kudzoreredzwa kwezviwanikwa zvedu, vakomana, kupatsanura, kusikwa kwemaitiro akasimba semienzaniso yevamwe, uye kuvharidzira kurongeka kwakagadzwa kuri kutitungamira zvine ruremekedzo uye nekunyemwerera pamusoro pemawere. Rally yakarongwa neMatter Youth North Carolina inoita senge inofamba munzira chaiyo kwandiri. Saka, ngativatende zvakare.
Chechipiri chandinonyara nacho ndechekuti hazvishamisi kuti sangano rerunyararo risvike kune muratidziri wezvakatipoteredza kana achisarudza munhu wekukudza, asi ini handisati ndambonzwa nezve reverse. Hallie naTravis vane babamunini vanoshanda zvakanyanya parunyararo, asi vanogara mutsika umo kuratidzira kunogamuchira mari uye kutariswa uye kugamuchirwa kwakawanda, kusvika padanho diki ripi zvaro uye nekutevera kuseri kwe5Ks kurwisa cancer yemazamu uye rudzi. ye activism inoshaya vanopikisa chaivo, ndeye activism yezvakatipoteredza. Asi ini ndinofunga kuti pane dambudziko pane zvandichangobva kuita uye zvatinowanzoita, ndiko kuti, nekuisa vanhu mumapoka sevanorwira runyararo kana varwiri vezvakatipoteredza kana vatsigiri vesarudzo dzakachena kana varatidziri vezvekuchinja kwenhau kana vanopikisa rusaruraganda. Sezvatakasvika pakuziva makore mashoma kumashure, isu tose tinowedzera kusvika ku99% yehuwandu, asi avo vakanyatsoshanda vakapatsanurwa, pachokwadi pamwe chete nemafungiro evanhu.
Runyararo nemagariro ezvakatipoteredza zvinofanirwa, ndinofunga, kusanganiswa kuita izwi rimwechete peacenvironmentalism, nekuti hapana kufamba kungangobudirira pasina imwe. iMatter inoda kurarama sekunge ramangwana redu rine basa. Iwe haugone kuzviita nemauto, nezviwanikwa zvinotora, nekuparadza kwazvinokonzeresa, nenjodzi inokura nekukura zuva rega rega rekuti zvombo zvenyukireya zviparadzwe nemaune kana netsaona. Kana iwe uchinyatso ziva nzira yekunyura imwe nyika uchipfura mabhoti kubva mudenga, izvo pasina munhu akazvifunga, kukanganisa kwemhepo nemamiriro ekunze kungakanganisa nyika yako zvakare. Asi iyo ifungidziro. Mumamiriro ezvinhu epasirese, chombo chenyukireya chinotangwa nemaune kana nekukanganisa, uye zvimwe zvakawanda zvinokurumidza kutangwa munzira dzese. Izvi zvakatoitika kakawanda, uye chokwadi chekuti isu hatichatarisi pazviri zvakare chinoita kuti zviwedzere pane zvishoma. Ndinofungidzira iwe unoziva zvakaitika mamaira makumi mashanu kumaodzanyemba kwakadziva kumabvazuva kwepano muna Ndira 50, 24? Ndizvozvo, mauto eUS akakanda netsaona mabhomba enyukireya maviri akaita rombo rakanaka kuti haana kuputika. Hapana chekunetsekana nazvo, anodaro mutsigiri wenhau dzemakodhi John Oliver, ndosaka tiine VAVIRI Carolinas.
iMatter inotsigira shanduko yehupfumi kubva kumafuta ezvicherwa kuenda kusimba rinodzokororwa uye kumabasa akasimba. Dai kwaiva nematiriyoni emadhora emadhora pagore ari kutambiswa pane chimwe chinhu chisingabatsiri kana chinoparadza! Uye zvechokwadi kune, pasi rose, iyo mari isinganzwisisike iri kushandiswa mukugadzirira hondo, hafu yacho neUnited States, zvikamu zvitatu kubva muzvina zvayo neUnited States nevabatsiri vayo - uye zvizhinji zvekupedzisira pane zvombo zveUnited States. Nokuda kwechikamu chiduku chayo, nzara nehosha zvaigona kubatwa zvakakomba, uye saizvozvowo kungagona kuchinja mamiriro okunze. Hondo inouraya zvakanyanya kuburikidza nekutora mari kubva painodiwa. Kune chidimbu chidiki chekushandisa gadziriro dzehondo, koreji inogona kusununguka pano uye kupihwa mahara mune dzimwe nzvimbo dzepasi zvakare. Fungidzira kuti vangani vanyanduri vezvakatipoteredza vataigona kuva navo kudai vakapedza kudzidza kukoreji vaisava nechikwereti chemakumi ezviuru zvamadhora mukutsinhana namaruramiro omunhu edzidzo! Unoripa sei izvozvo usingaendi kubasa kune vanoparadza nyika?
79% yezvombo muMiddle East zvinobva kuUnited States, tisingaverenge izvo zveuto reUS. Zvombo zveUS zvaive kumativi ese muLibya makore matatu apfuura uye zviri kumativi ese muSyria neIraq. Kugadzira zvombo ibasa risingagarike kana ndamboona. Inopedza hupfumi. Iwo madhora mamwe chete anoshandiswa pakuchenesa simba kana zvivakwa kana dzidzo kana kunyange kuderedzwa kwemitero kune vasiri mabhiriyoni anoburitsa mabasa akawanda kupfuura mari yemauto. Chiuto chinokuchidzira mhirizhonga, pane kutidzivirira. Zvombo izvi zvinofanirwa kushandiswa, kuparadzwa, kana kupihwa mapurisa emunharaunda anozotanga kuona vanhu veko sevavengi, kuitira kuti zvombo zvitsva zvigadzirwe. Uye maitiro aya, nemamwe matanho, muparadzi mukuru wezvakatipoteredza zvatinazvo.
Mauto eUS aipisa nepakati pemadhiramu 340,000 emafuta zuva rega rega, sezvakayerwa muna 2006. Dai Pentagon yaive nyika, yaizotora 38th kubva pa196 mukushandiswa kwemafuta. Kana iwe ukabvisa Pentagon kubva mukudyiwa kwemafuta neUnited States, saka United States ingadai ichiri chinzvimbo chekutanga pasina mumwe munhu chero padyo. Asi iwe ungadai wakachengetedza mhepo kupisa kwemafuta akawanda kudarika nyika zhinji, uye ungadai wakachengetedza pasi rose zvakaipa izvo mauto eUS anogona kuzvipisa nazvo. Hapana chimwe sangano muUnited States chinodya kure kure nemafuta akawanda semauto.
Gore rega rega, US Environmental Protection Agency inoshandisa madhora 622 miriyoni ichiedza kufunga nzira yekugadzira simba pasina mafuta, ukuwo mauto anoshandisa mazana emabhiriyoni emadhora kupisa mafuta muhondo dzakarwiwa uye pamabhesi anochengetedzwa kudzora mafuta. Mamirioni emadhora akashandiswa kuchengetedza musoja wega wega mubasa rekunze kwegore anogona kugadzira mabasa makumi maviri emagetsi egreen pamadhora makumi mashanu ega ega.
Hondo mumakore achangopfuura dzakaita kuti nzvimbo huru dzisagarike uye dzakaparira makumi emamiriyoni evapoteri. Hondo "inokwikwidza chirwere chinotapukira sechikonzero chepasi rose chekurwara uye kufa," maererano naJennifer Leaning weHarvard Medical School. Kutsamira kunokamura kukanganiswa kwemhoteredzo yehondo kuva mativi mana: “kugadzirwa uye kuedzwa kwezvombo zvenyukireya, kubhomba kwemuchadenga nendege, kuparadzirwa uye kuramba kuchiitika kwezvimbambaira nemidziyo yakavigwa, uye kushandiswa kana kuchengetwa kwezvakaparadza mauto, chepfu, nemarara.” Mushumo wa1993 weDhipatimendi Renyika yeUnited States wakadana zvimbambaira kuti “kusvibiswa kunokuvadza zvikuru uye kwakapararira kwakatarisana norudzi rwomunhu.” Mamiriyoni emahekita muEurope, North Africa, uye Asia ari pasi pekurambidzwa. Chikamu chimwe muzvitatu chenyika muLibya chinovanza zvimbambaira uye zvombo zvisina kuputika zveHondo Yenyika II.
Basa reSoviet neUnited States reA Afghanistan rinoparadza kana kuparadza zviuru zvemisha uye mitsva yemvura. VaTaliban vaitengesa matanda kuPakistan zvisina kutenderwa, zvichiita kuti kudyarwa kwemasango kunokosha. Mabhomba eUUS uye vapoteri vanoda ruvengo vakawedzera kudambudziko. Masango eAustralia anenge ava kuda kuenda. Zvizhinji zvezvisikwa zvinoputika izvo zvaiwanzopfuura nepakati peAustralia hazvichaiti kudaro. Mhepo yaro nemvura zvakasvibiswa nezviputi uye rocket propellants.
Iwe unogona kunge usina hanya nezvematongerwo enyika, chirevo chinoenda, asi zvematongerwo enyika zvine hanya newe. Izvo zvinoenda kuhondo. John Wayne akadzivisa kuenda kuHondo Yenyika II nekugadzira mafirimu ekukudza vamwe vanhu vachienda. Uye unoziva here zvakaitika kwaari? Akaita bhaisikopo muUtah pedyo nenzvimbo yekuyedza nyukireya. Pavanhu mazana maviri nemakumi maviri vakashanda pafirimu iri, makumi mapfumbamwe nerimwe, pane makumi matatu angave akajairika, akaita cancer kusanganisira John Wayne, Susan Hayward, Agnes Moorehead, uye director Dick Powell.
Tinoda imwe nzira. MuConnecticut, Peace Action nemamwe mapoka akawanda akabatanidzwa mukubudirira kunyengetedza hurumende yenyika kuti igadzire komisheni yekushanda pakushandura kubva kuzvombo kuenda kumaindasitiri ane runyararo. Masangano evashandi nemaneja vanozvitsigira. Mapoka ezvakatipoteredza uye erunyararo chikamu chayo. Ibasa rakawanda ririkuitika. Zvingangodaro zvaikurudzirwa nenyaya dzenhema dzokuti mauto akanga ari kurohwa. Asi kana isu tichigona kuita kuti icho chive chokwadi kana kwete, kudiwa kwezvakatipoteredza kushandura zviwanikwa zvedu kune yakasvibira simba iri kukura, uye hapana chikonzero North Carolina haifanirwe kuve yechipiri nyika kuita izvi. Iwe une tsika dzeMuvhuro pano. Wadii kuva netsika mazuva ose egore?
Shanduko huru dzinotaridzika dzakakura dzisati dzaitika kupfuura mushure. Environmentalism yauya nekukurumidza. IUS yaitove nenyukireya dzepasi pemvura kumashure apo mawhale aive achiri kushandiswa sesosi yezvigadzirwa, mafuta ekuzora, uye mafuta, kusanganisira mumanyukireya epasi pemvura. Ikozvino mawhale, kanenge kamwe kamwe, anoonekwa seanoshamisa zvisikwa zvakangwara kuti zvichengetedzwe, uye nyukireya dzepasi pemvura dzakatanga kutaridzika sechinyakare, uye inouraya inosvibisa kusvibiswa iyo Navy inoisa pamakungwa epasi inotaridzika zvishoma.
Mhosva dze iMatter dzinotsvaga kuchengetedza kuvimba neveruzhinji kuzvizvarwa zvinotevera. Kugona kuva nehanya nezvizvarwa zvinotevera, maererano nekufungidzira kunodiwa, kwakada kufanana nekugona kutarisira vanhu vekune dzimwe nyika vari chinhambwe muchadenga kwete nguva. Kana tikakwanisa kufunga nezvenharaunda yedu sekubatanidza avo vasati vazvarwa, avo isu tinovimba kuti vanopfuura isu tose, tinogona kufunga nezvazvo sekubatanidza 95% yevapenyu nhasi vasina kuitika kuti vari munyika. United States of America, uye zvinopesana.
Asi kunyangwe dai zvezvakatipoteredza uye kurwira runyararo zvanga zvisiri sangano rimwe chete, taifanira kubatana navo nevamwe vakati wandei pamwechete kuti tive nemhando yemubatanidzwa weOccupy 2.0 watinoda kuti shanduko. Mukana mukuru wekuita izvo uri kuuya kutenderera Gunyana 21st inova Zuva Renyika Dzerunyararo uye nguva iyo rally nemhando dzese dzezviitiko zvemamiriro ekunze zvichange zvichiitika muNew York City.
PaWorldBeyondWar.org iwe unowana ese marudzi ese ezvishandiso zvekubata chako chiitiko cherunyararo uye nharaunda. Iwe zvakare uchawana pfupi-mitsetse chirevo chekupedza hondo yese, chirevo chakasainwa mumwedzi mishoma yapfuura nevanhu vari munyika makumi masere nerimwe uye vachisimuka. Unogona kusaina pabepa pano manheru ano. Tinoda rubatsiro rwenyu, vadiki nevakuru. Asi isu tinofanira kunyanya kufara kuti nguva nenhamba zviri kudivi revadiki pasi rese, kwandinoti pamwe chete naShelley:
