Izidakamizwa zaseCharlottesville ezivela eziNqweni namaFossil Fuels

World BEYOND War - Juni 3, 2019

Ngobusuku ka-June 3, i-2019, uMkhandlu weDolobha waseCharlottesville, Va., Bavotela ukuhlukanisa izimali kwisabelomali salo sokusebenza ezivela kubathengisi bezikhali kanye nabakhiqizi bezinto ezimbi. Nansi isinqumo njengoba sidluliselwe uMkhandlu Wesikole: PDF. Idolobha lizibophezele nokuthatha isinyathelo esifanayo nesikhwama somhlalaphansi kulokhu ekwindla ezayo.

Isiphakamiso sokwenza lokhu salethwa edolobheni ngo-Mashi ngumbumbano wamaqembu okuthiwa i-Divest Cville, eya khona futhi yakhuluma emihlanganweni yamkhandlu wedolobha (bheka videos), ebanjwe imibuthano, wabhala izinhlamvu, zenziwe amaflaya, zathengisa izikhangiso, zenziwe izimpendulo eziphikisayo ezingenzeka, wahlangana noMgcinimafa Womuzi, futhi wabonisa isikhalazo.

UDavid Swanson, uMqondisi oPhethe World BEYOND War, enye yezinhlangano ezihilelekile, uthe ukuhlanganisa izikhali namafutha asetshenziswayo akuyona nje indaba yokubeka izimali ezimbi kunazo zonke, kodwa isinyathelo esithathwe ngenhloso yokuqokomisa ukuxhumana phakathi kwezimboni ezimbili.

Isisusa esiyinhloko sezimpi ezithile yisifiso sokulawula izinsiza ezonakalisa umhlaba, ikakhulukazi amafutha negesi. Eqinisweni, ukuqaliswa kwezimpi ezizweni ezicebile kubantu abampofu akuhambisani nokuphulwa kwamalungelo abantu noma ukungabi nantando yeningi noma izinsongo zobuphekula, kodwa kuhambisana kakhulu ukutholakala kwamafutha.

I-Cest Divest yenza leli cala elilandelayo:

Izinkampani zezikhali zase-US supply izikhali ezibulalayo kubushiqela obunesihluku obuningi emhlabeni wonke, futhi izinkampani iCharlottesville njengamanje zinezimali zomphakathi ezitshaliwe kubalwa iBoeing neHoneywell, okungabaphakeli abakhulu bempi esabekayo yaseSaudi Arabia kubantu baseYemen.

Ukuphathwa kwezepolitiki kwamanje kuveze ukuguquka kwesimo sezulu ukuxolisa, kugudlukiswa ekuhoxiseni i-US ekuvumelaneni kwesimo sezulu emhlabeni jikelele, ukuzama ukuvimbela isayensi yezesimo sezulu, futhi kwasebenza ukuqinisa ukukhiqizwa nokusetshenziswa kwamafutha asebusayo okushisa, ngakho-ke umthwalo owela emzini , esifundazweni, nohulumeni basekhaya ukuthatha ubuholi besimo sezulu ngenxa yezinhlalakahle zezakhamuzi zabo kanye nempilo yezindawo zendawo nezifunda.

I-Militarism iyinhloko umnikelo ekushintsheni kwesimo sezulu, futhi uMkhandlu waseCharlottesville usuvele usuvele ukhona wanxusa i-US Congress ukutshala izimali ezingaphansi kwezempi nokuningi ekuvikeleni izidingo zomuntu nezemvelo.

Ukuqhubekela phambili kwenkambo yamanje yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu kuzobangela ukuphakama kwezinga lokushisa kwe-4.5ºF nge-2050, futhi kubize umnotho wezwe jikelele $ 32 amaRandi ayizigidi zamaRandi.

Ukulinganisa kweminyaka emihlanu yokushisa eVirginia kwaqala okuphawulekayo nokuzinzile ukwandisa ekuqaleni kwe-1970s, iphuma ku-54.6 degrees Fahrenheit bese ifika ku-56.2 degrees F ku-2012, kanti indawo yasePiedmont ibone ukushisa okuphakama ngezinga lika-0.53 degrees F ngayinye eyishumi, lapho izinga laseVirginia lizoshisa njengeNingizimu Carolina nge-2050 futhi njengaseNorth Florida nge-2100;

Abomnotho eYunivesithi yaseMassachusetts e-Amherst baye ibhalwe phansi ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kwempi kuyisimo sezomnotho kunomsebenzi wokudala imisebenzi, nokuthi ukutshalwa kwemali kwamanye imikhakha kuzuzisa ngokwezomnotho.

Ukufundwa nge-Satellite show amatafula amanzi ehla emhlabeni wonke, futhi izifunda ezingaphezu kwesisodwa ezifundeni ezintathu e-United States zingabhekana nengozi "ephezulu" noma "eyedlulele" yokushoda kwamanzi ngenxa yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu maphakathi nekhulu lama-21, kuyilapho eziyisikhombisa kwezilishumi Izifunda ezingama-3,100 XNUMX zingabhekana nengozi "ethile" yokushoda kwamanzi ahlanzekile.

Izimpi zivame ukulwa nezikhali zase-US ezisetshenziswe yizinhlangothi zombili. Izibonelo zihlanganisa izimpi zase-US ku Syria, Iraq, Libya, lo I-Iran-Iraq impi, the I-Mexican impi yezidakamizwa, IMpi Yezwe II, nabanye abaningi.

Amagagasi atshisayo manje imbangela ukufa okunye e-United States kunezinye izenzakalo zezulu (iziphepho, izikhukhula, umbani, amabhilididi, ama-tornados, njll.) kuhlangene, futhi ngokuphawulekayo ngaphezu kwakho konke ukufa kusuka kobuphekula. Abantu abalinganiselwa ku-150 e-United States bazofa ngokushisa okukhulu njalo ngosuku lwehlobo ngo-2040, cishe nokufa okuhlobene nokushisa kwe-30,000 njalo ngonyaka.

Ukutshala imali kukahulumeni wasekhaya ezinkampanini ezikhiqiza izikhali zempi kubambelela ngokugcwele ukusetshenziswa kwemali yezempi kulezi zinkampani ezifanayo, eziningi zazo zixhomeke kuhulumeni wesifundazwe njengekhasimende labo eliyinhloko.

Phakathi kwe-1948 ne-2006 "imicimbi yokwehliswa ngokweqile" yanda i-25% eVirginia, enezimpikiswano ezimbi kwezolimo, umkhuba obikezelwe ukuqhubeka, nezinga lomhlaba jikelele wolwandle lenzelwe bavuke okungenani okungamamitha amabili ngasekupheleni kwekhulu leminyaka, ukuphakama eduze kolwandle lwaseVirginia phakathi kokushesha kakhulu emhlabeni.

Izinkampani zezinqola ezenziwa uCharlottesville ukuthi zingabatshali izimali ekukhiqizeni izikhali ezilethwe eCharlottesville ngo-Agasti 2017.

Ukukhishwa kwamafutha okushisa kufanele kukhunjwe ngu-45% ngo-2030 futhi ku-zero yi-2050 ukuze ukubamba ukufudumala emgomweni we-2.7 ºF (1.5 ºC) okubhekiswe ku-Paris Accord.

Ukushintsha kwesimo sezulu kuyisongo esiyingozi empilweni, ekuphepheni nasezinhlalakahle zabantu baseCharlottesville, kanti i-American Academy of Pediatrics isixwayise ukuthi ushintsho lwezulu lusizi empilweni nasekukhulekeni komuntu, nezingane zibe yingozi kakhulu, futhi izingcingo ukwehluleka ukuthatha "isenzo esisheshayo, esisebenzayo" "sokungabi nabulungiswa kuzo zonke izingane."

Izinga lokudubula kwabantu abaningi e-United States liphezulu kunoma yikuphi emhlabeni othuthukile, njengoba abakhiqizi bezibhamu abaqhubekayo beqhubeka bevuna inzuzo enkulu ekukhuculweni kwegazi okungadingeki ukuthi sitshale imali yethu.
