Intii lagu jiray faafitaanka COVID-19, waji-xidhashadu waxay ahayd mid ka mid ah tillaabooyinka caafimaadka bulshada ee muhiimka ah ee la dejiyay si loola dagaallamo cudurka.
Laga soo bilaabo Maarso 2020, balaayiin maaskaro oo la tuuri karo ayaa adduunka oo dhan laga isticmaalayey, taasoo kor u qaadeysa su’aasha: Maxaa ku dhacaya dhammaan waji-xiryadii la isticmaalay?
Sida cilmi-baarayaasha hal mar u adeegsada wasakhowga caagga ah iyo microplastic, bilawga mowjad caalami ah oo wasakhowga caagga ah ayaa noo caddaatay maalmihii hore ee masiibada – waxaan arki karnaa caddaynta xitaa inta lagu jiro qufulka marka jimicsigu uu ku koobnaa socod gaaban oo maalinle ah xaafad. Maaskaro iyo galoofyada ayaa dhulka yaalay, dabayshu ruxaysay oo dayr ka laadlaadsan .documented that Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) debris would interact with wildlife in the same way as other plastics.
Kanada gudaheeda, koox cilmi-baarayaal ah oo uu hoggaaminayo cilmiga bayoolajiga ilaalinta Jennifer Provencher ayaa daraasad ku sameeyay sida qashinka balaastiggu u saameeyo duurjoogta. Daraasad la sameeyay intii lagu jiray nadiifinta kanaalka Nederlaan, bayolojiyada Xarunta Naturalis Biodiversity Centre waxay diiwaangeliyeen in qashinka Qalabka Ilaalinta Shakhsi ahaaneed (PPE) uu ula falgalo duurjoogta si la mid ah balaastikada kale.
Saamaynta ku leh duurjoogta
Waxaa jira kartoon ku wareegaya intarneedka oo sidan u dhacaya: jiir ayaa guriga yimi isagoo sita bacaha raashinka si uu u arko laba dooli oo jiifa sariiro ah oo laga sameeyay waji-xidho heer caafimaad ah. Jiirka gunta hoose ku jira ayaa ku dhawaaqaya, “Hammocks bilaash ah, magaalada oo dhan. Waa mucjiso oo kale!”
Waxa aanu la wadaagnay sawir-gacmeedkan asxaabteena bilowgii aafada, annagoo samaynayna sahanno ku saabsan qashinka PPE ee hareeraha waddooyinka Toronto iyo meelaha baabuurta la dhigto ayuu yiri cilmi baare Jackie Saturno, Researchers
Waxaan ogaanay in gudaha aagga aan sahaminta ku sameynay – oo daboolay aag Toronto ah oo u dhiganta ilaa 45 garoon kubbadda cagta ah – in ka badan 14,000 waji-xidho, galoofyada ama masaxadaha gacmaha la tuuro oo la ururiyey dhammaadka sanadka. Taasi waa qamadi badan oo jiirka ah.
Waxaan sameynay sahan caalami ah anagoo adeegsanayna xisaabaadka warbaahinta bulshada ee isdhexgalka duurjoogta iyo qashinka PPE. Sawiradu waa soo jiidasho leh: Xirmad ku duudduubtay maaskaro weji, oo dhegaha dhegaha ayaa ku qallafsan kibisteeda. Fiidmeer yar, oo dhegaha laba maaskaro ku duuban tahay baalkeeda. Buul, oo ay ka buuxaan ukumo cad oo fool maroodi ah, oo ay ku daboolan yihiin baalal hoose iyo maaskaro maro ah.
Qaar badan oo ka mid ah xayawaankan ayaa dhintay, laakiin intooda badani way noolaayeen markii la arkayay. Dadka sawirka qaaday ayaa qaarkood laga sii daayay baco ay ku xirnaayeen.
Wadar ahaan, waxaan helnay 114 kiis oo ah isdhexgalka duurjoogta iyo qashinka PPE sida lagu diiwaangeliyay warbaahinta bulshada ee dadka daneynaya adduunka oo dhan. Inta badan duurjoogta waxay ahaayeen shimbiro (83 boqolkiiba), inkastoo naasleyda (11 boqolkiiba), kalluunka (laba boqolkiiba), laf-dhabarta sida octopus (boqolkiiba afar) iyo qoolleyda badeed (boqolkiiba hal) ayaa sidoo kale la arkay.
Inta badan indha-indhaynta waxay ka soo jeedaan Maraykanka (29), England (16), Kanada (13) iyo Australia (11), waxay u badan tahay inay matalaan labadaba korodhka helitaanka aaladaha mobilada iyo ereyadayada luqadda Ingiriisiga. Indho-indheyntu waxay sidoo kale ka timid 22 waddan oo kale, oo wakiil ka ah dhammaan qaaradaha marka laga reebo Antarctica.
Qiimaha iyo faa’iidooyinka miisaanka
Iyadoo 129 bilyan oo waji-xir ah lagu qiyaasay in la isticmaalo bil kasta adduunka oo dhan,, hadana cilmi-baarayaasha deegaanka waxay leeyihiin dhibaato deegaan oo ka dhalaneeysa Masakarada la tuuro With an estimated 129 billion face masks used monthly around the world,
Maaskarada N95 waxay lama huraan u ahaayeen dhimista gudbinta COVID-19 iyo, in kasta oo ay deegaan ahaan uga waxyeello badan yihiin waji-xidhka maryaha, faa’iidada caafimaadku si cad ayaa muuqata.
Haddaba, maxaan ka fiicnaan lahayn? Hal shay oo aan ogaanay intii aan ku jirnay sahanka qashinka PPE ayaa ah badnaanta maaskaro iyo galoofyada la tuuray ee u dhow weelasha qashinka dadweynaha.
Waxaan qiyaasaynaa in la’aanta fariimaha cad ee dawladaha hoose iyo gobollada ee ku saabsan siyaabaha badbaadada leh ee loo tuuro PPE, oo ay weheliso rabitaan la’aantayada ah inaan ku ururinno ilo u dhow PPE-da la tuuray, ayaa laga yaabaa inay gacan ka geysatay dhacdadan wasakheynta caalamiga ah.
Kuwani waa casharro weli la hirgelin karo inta aan ku sii soconno mowjadaha masiibada ah; isticmaalka maaskaro weli nagama dambayn. Sahankayagu wuu sii socdaa marka aanu la socono ururinta qashinka PPE oo ay u badan tahay inay soo galaan buulal badan oo ku wareegsan jidhka xayawaanno badan.
Kor u kaca isticmaalka balaastigga ah ee loo isticmaalo COVID-19 waxaa laga yaabaa inaan laga hortagin. Laakiin kororka wasakhowga caagga ah waxaa lagu yarayn karay xoogaa maalgelin ah oo lagu sameeyo wacyigelinta dadweynaha iyo wax ka beddelka kaabayaasha maareynta qashinka si loogu oggolaado in waji-xidhka iyo PPE-da kale la tuuro oo si sax ah looga baaraandego iyada oo ay ugu yar tahay daadinta deegaanka.
