Saka tave zvakare kune imwe COP (Musangano Wemapato). Zvakanaka, vamwe vedu tiri muGlasgow, Scotland paCOP pachayo, uye vamwe vedu, munyori uyu aisanganisira, takagara kure, tichiedza kunzwa tariro.
Asi iyi iCOP 26. Zvichireva kuti kwakatovapo 25 anoedza pakubata nezvaimbouya uye zvino patiri dambudziko remamiriro ekunze. Makumi maviri neshanu kutenderera kwe "blah, blah, blah" semuratidziri wemamiriro ekunze evechidiki, Greta Thunberg, akazvitaura nenzira kwayo.
Saka kana vamwe vedu vasinganzwe kutsvuka kwetarisiro pamatama edu, tinogona kuregererwa. Ndinoreva, kunyange Mambokadzi weEngland zvave nezvakakwana zvekutaura-uye-kwete-kuita kwevatungamiriri vedu venyika, avo vanga, kazhinji, vasina maturo. Kunyange, panguva ino, ndisipo. Zvimwe zvacho zvave zvakaipa kupfuura izvozvo.
Kusaita chero chinhu chakasimba pamamiriro ekunze panguva ino imhosva huru kune vanhu. Uye zvimwe zvese zvinorarama paNyika. Inofanirwa kunge iri zvikonzero zvekuonekwa kuInternational Criminal Court. Muchiteshi.
Asi ndezvipi zvinobudisa ma<em>greenhouse gasi makuru munyika yose zvino? Kuvandudza uye kuwedzera kwavo matura ezvombo zvenyukireya. Imwe mhosva kune vanhu. Zvinoita sokuti havasati vatomboona kuti pasi redu rava kutoenda kugehena nokukurumidza riri mubhasiketi remaoko. Vanongoda kukurumidzira zvinhu zvishoma nekuisa armagedhoni yenyukireya patiri zvakare.
Kwete kuti zvinhu zviviri izvi hazvina kubatana. Indasitiri yemagetsi enyukireya iri kutatarika kutsvaga nzira yekupinda muCOP mamiriro ekunze. Yakazvishandura se "zero-carbon", idzo nhema. Uye nhema idzi dzinoenda dzisingapikiswe nevematongerwo enyika vanoda avo vanozvidzokorora. Ivo zvechokwadi vane usimbe uye mapenzi? Zvichida kwete. Verenga.
Simba renyukireya haisi mhinduro yemamiriro ekunze hongu. Iyo haigone kuita nyaya yezvemari inonzwisisika, kana ichienzaniswa neinovandudzwa uye kugona kwesimba, uye haigone kuendesa anenge akakwana magetsi nenguva kuti irambe isingachinjiki yenjodzi yemamiriro ekunze. Inononoka, inodhura zvakanyanya, ine njodzi, haisati yagadzirisa dambudziko rayo remarara uye inopa njodzi inogona kukonzeresa chengetedzo nengozi yekuwandisa.
Simba renyukireya rinononoka uye rinodhura zvekuti hazvina basa kuti i'low-carbon' here (tisiye 'zero-carbon'). Semusayendisiti, Amory Lovins, inoti, “ Kusashandisa kabhoni hakuiti kuti mamiriro ekunze ashande zvakanaka. Kana simba richinonoka uye richidhura zvakanyanya, "richaderedza nekumisa kuchengetedzwa kwemamiriro ekunze kunokwanisika," zvisinei nekuti 'kabhoni yakaderera' sei.
Izvi zvinosiya chikonzero chimwe chete chinogoneka chezvematongerwo enyika nekuchengetedza indasitiri yemagetsi enyukireya: kukosha kwayo kuchikamu chezvombo zvenyukireya.
Zvitsva, zvidiki, zvinokurumidzira zvinogadzira plutonium, yakakosha kuindasitiri yezvombo zvenyukireya saHenry Sokolski naVictor Gilinsky ve Asiri kudzvanywa Policy Policy Center ramba uchitaura. Mamwe aya anonzi mamicro-reactor aizoshandiswa kusimbisa nhandare yehondo. Tennessee Valley Authority yave kutoshandisa maviri emagetsi ayo enyukireya kugadzira tritium, imwe "chinhu" chakakosha chezvombo zvenyukireya uye kusvibiswa kwengozi kwemauto uye mitsetse yenyukireya.
Kuchengeta mareactor aripo achienderera mberi, nekuvaka matsva, kunochengetedza hupenyu hwevashandi uye ruzivo rwunodiwa nechikamu chezvombo zvenyukireya. Nyevero dzakakasharara dziri kuziviswa muhoro dzemasimba pamusoro pekutyisidzira kuchengetedzwa kwenyika kana chikamu chenyukireya chehurumende chikapera.
Izvi zvinopfuura kungofungidzira. Izvo zvese zvinotsanangurwa muzvinyorwa zvakawanda kubva kumitumbi yakadai Atlantic Council to Iyo Energy Futures Initiative. Yakave yakatsvakwa zvakanaka nevaviri vakadzidza paYunivhesiti yeSussex kuUK - Andy Stirling naPhil Johnstone. Zvinenge zvisina kumbotaurwa nezvazvo. Kusanganisira neavo vedu mubato rekurwisa simba renyukireya, zvakanyanya kuStirling naJohnstone kushamisika.
Asi neimwe nzira zvinongova pachena. Sezvo isu tiri mubato rinopesana nenyukireya tinopwanya huropi hwedu kuti tinzwisise kuti nei nharo dzedu dzakasimba uye dzinomanikidza dzichipokana nekushandisa simba renyukireya kune mamiriro ekunze anodonha nekusingaperi panzeve dzisinganzwe, isu pamwe tiri kupotsa chokwadi chekuti nyukireya-yakakosha-kune-mamiriro ekunze nharo. tinonzwa kuti inongova imwe hombe yekusvuta fodya.
Zvirinani, ngativei netariro. Nekuti iyo imwe nzira inoreva kuti vezvematongerwo enyika vedu zvechokwadi vane usimbe uye mapenzi, uye zvakare vanonyengerwa, kana muhomwe dzevanosvibisa hombe, ingave yenyukireya kana fossil mafuta, kana zvimwe zvese zviri pamusoro. Uye kana zvirizvo, tinofanira kuzvigadzirira zvimwe “blah, blah, blah” paCOP 26 uye netarisiro yakaipa kwazvo yezvizvarwa zvazvino nezvichauya.
Isu tinotenda, nekudaro, kune vatinoshanda navo vari kupinda COP 26, avo vachange vachisimudzira- pane kurerekera ku-mamhepo pavanenge vachitaura nyaya yavo, imwe nguva zvakare, kuti simba renyukireya harina nzvimbo, uye rinotadzisa, mhinduro dzemamiriro ekunze.
Uye ndinotarisira kuti vacharatidzawo kuti simba renyukireya rinodhura uye rakapera harifanirwe kusimudzirwa - pasi pekunyepedzera kwemhinduro yemamiriro ekunze - sechikonzero chekusimudzira indasitiri yezvombo zvenyukireya.
