Ngati pali china chake chomwe aliyense wokonda zolimbitsa thupi, wothamanga komanso wokonda panja amakonda kwambiri, ndizovala zopangidwa. Kupatula apo, zida monga poliyesitala, nayiloni, ndi acrylic ndizopambana pakuchotsa chinyezi, zimawuma mwachangu, ndipo zimakhala zolimba.
Koma zinthu zonse zopangidwa ndi pulasitiki. Ulusi umenewu ukathyoka kapena kugudubuzika, zingwe zake zimataya, zomwe nthawi zambiri zimagwera m'nthaka ndi madzi, zomwe zimayambitsa thanzi komanso chilengedwe. Mosamala momwe mulili, choyambitsa chachikulu pazinthu zonse zotayirira zili mnyumba mwanu: makina anu ochapira.
Mwamwayi, pali njira zingapo zosavuta zoletsera ma microplastics kuti asawononge dziko lapansi ndi boot iliyonse.
Monga momwe dzinalo likusonyezera, ma microplastics ndi tizidutswa tating'ono ta pulasitiki kapena pulasitiki zomwe siziwoneka ndi maso. Motero, kumenyera nkhondo kuti asatuluke n’kosangalatsa kwambiri kusiyana ndi zidzukulu kapena zikwama zapulasitiki zotsutsana nazo—ntchito imene kaŵirikaŵiri imatsagana ndi zithunzi zomvetsa chisoni za akamba akunyanja akutsamwitsidwa ndi zinyalala. Koma katswiri wa sayansi ya zamoyo za m’madzi Alexis Jackson akuti ma microplastic akadali oopsa kwambiri ku chilengedwe chathu. Adzadziwa: ali ndi Ph.D. Pankhani ya ecology ndi evolutionary biology, mapulasitiki omwe ali m'nyanja zathu adaphunziridwa mozama monga mkulu wa malamulo apanyanja ku California mutu wa The Nature Conservancy.
Koma mosiyana ndi kugula udzu wachitsulo kapena kusonkhanitsa matumba ogwiritsidwanso ntchito, njira yothetsera vutoli siidziwika bwino. Choyamba, ma microplastics ndi ang'onoang'ono kotero kuti malo osungiramo zimbudzi nthawi zambiri sangathe kuwasefa.
Zikazembera, zimakhala pafupifupi paliponse. Amapezeka ngakhale ku Arctic. Sikuti ndizosasangalatsa zokha, koma nyama iliyonse yomwe imadya tilusi tating'ono ta pulasitiki timeneti imatha kutsekeka m'mimba, kuchepetsa mphamvu ndi chilakolako, zomwe zimapangitsa kuti kukula kwapang'onopang'ono ndikuchepetse ntchito yobereka. Kuonjezera apo, ma microplastics asonyezedwa kuti amatenga mankhwala owopsa monga zitsulo zolemera ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo, kusamutsira poizoniyu ku plankton, nsomba, mbalame za m'nyanja ndi nyama zina zakutchire.
Kuchokera pamenepo, mankhwala owopsa amatha kusuntha chakudya ndikuwonekera muzakudya zanu zam'nyanja, osatchulapo madzi apampopi.
Tsoka ilo, tilibebe chidziwitso chakutha kwanthawi yayitali kwa ma microplastic paumoyo wamunthu. Koma chifukwa tikudziwa kuti ndi oyipa kwa nyama (ndipo mapulasitiki sali mbali yovomerezeka ya zakudya zopatsa thanzi komanso zopatsa thanzi), Jackson ananena kuti ndi bwino kunena kuti sitiyenera kuziika m'matupi athu.
Ikafika nthawi yotsuka ma leggings anu, akabudula a basketball, kapena vest yowotcha, pali masitepe omwe mungatenge kuti muteteze ma microplastics kuti asathere m'chilengedwe.
Yambani ndikulekanitsa zovala - osati ndi mtundu, koma ndi zinthu. Tsukani zovala zokwiririka kapena zankhawa, monga jinzi, mosiyana ndi zovala zofewa, monga ma T-shirt a poliyesita ndi majuzi a ubweya. Mwanjira iyi, muchepetse kukangana komwe kumachitika chifukwa cha kukhudzika kwa zinthu zowonda kwambiri mkati mwa mphindi 40. Kukangana kochepa kumatanthauza kuti zovala zanu sizitha msanga komanso ulusi sungathe kusweka msanga.
Kenako onetsetsani kuti mukugwiritsa ntchito madzi ozizira osati otentha. Kutentha kumafooketsa ulusiwo ndikuwapangitsa kung’ambika mosavuta, pamene madzi ozizira amawathandiza kukhala kwa nthaŵi yaitali. Kenako yendetsani mikombero yayifupi m'malo mozungulira nthawi zonse kapena yayitali, izi zimachepetsa mwayi wa kusweka kwa ulusi. Mukachita izi, chepetsani liwiro la kuzungulira kwa spin ngati kuli kotheka - izi zidzachepetsanso kukangana. Pamodzi, njirazi zidachepetsa kukhetsa kwa microfiber ndi 30%, malinga ndi kafukufuku wina.
Pamene tikukambilana zoikamo makina ochapira, pewani mikombero yosakhwima. Izi zitha kukhala zosemphana ndi zomwe mukuganiza, koma zimagwiritsa ntchito madzi ochulukirapo kuposa mazambidwe ena otsuka kuti ateteze kukwapula - kuchuluka kwamadzi mpaka nsalu kumatha kukulitsa kukhetsa kwa fiber.
Pomaliza, chotsani chowumitsa kwathunthu. Sitingathe kutsindika izi mokwanira: Kutentha kumafupikitsa moyo wa zipangizo ndikuwonjezera mwayi woti ziwonongeke pansi pa katundu wina. Mwamwayi, zovala zopangidwa zimauma msanga, choncho zipachike panja kapena panjanji ya shawa-mungapulumutse ndalama pogwiritsa ntchito chowumitsira nthawi zambiri.
Zovala zanu zikatsukidwa ndi zouma, musabwerere ku makina ochapira. Zinthu zambiri siziyenera kutsukidwa mukamaliza kugwiritsa ntchito, choncho ikani akabudula kapena malaya mu chovala kuti muvalenso kapena kawiri ngati sanunkhiza ngati galu wonyowa mukangogwiritsa ntchito kamodzi. Ngati pali malo amodzi onyansa, asambitseni pamanja m'malo moyamba kulongedza.
Mutha kugwiritsanso ntchito zinthu zosiyanasiyana kuti muchepetse kukhetsa kwa microfiber. Guppyfriend wapanga chikwama chochapira chopangidwa makamaka kuti asonkhanitse ulusi wosweka ndi zinyalala za microplastic, komanso kuteteza kusweka kwa ulusi pagwero poteteza zovala. Ingoikani zopangiramo, zipini, ziponyeni mu makina ochapira, zitulutseni ndikutaya zomangira za microplastic zomwe zakhala pamakona a thumba. Ngakhale matumba ochapira wamba amathandizira kuchepetsa kukangana, kotero iyi ndi njira.
Chosefera chosiyana chomangika papaipi ya makina ochapira ndi njira ina yothandiza komanso yosinthika yomwe yatsimikiziridwa kuti imachepetsa ma microplastics mpaka 80%. Koma musatengeke kwambiri ndi mipira yochapira iyi, yomwe imati imatchera ma microfibers pochapa: zotsatira zake ndizachepa.
Pankhani ya zotsukira, zinthu zambiri zodziwika zimakhala ndi pulasitiki, kuphatikiza makapisozi osavuta omwe amasweka kukhala tinthu tating'onoting'ono tating'ono mu makina ochapira. Koma panafunika kukumba pang'ono kuti adziwe kuti ndi zotsukira zomwe zinali zoyambitsa. Phunzirani momwe mungadziwire ngati chotsukira chanu ndichochezeka kwenikweni musanakonzenso kapena kuganizira kupanga zanu. Kenako samalirani zopangira zanu kuyambira tsiku lomwe mwatsuka.
Alisha McDarris ndi mlembi wothandiza ku Popular Science. Wokonda kuyenda komanso wokonda panja, amakonda kuwonetsa abwenzi, abale, ngakhale alendo momwe angakhalire otetezeka komanso kuthera nthawi yochulukirapo panja. Pamene sakulemba, mumatha kumuwona atanyamula chikwama, kayaking, kukwera miyala, kapena kuyenda pamsewu.
