Ngikuhlolele: 'zero waste' nomndeni

Ukuchofoza: 390 kilos of waste

Ngiya engqungqutheleni enikezwe edolobheni lami ngu-Emily Barsanti, wenhlangano yezemvelo 'Green'houilles'. Uchaza ukuthi sikhiqiza imfucuza engamakhilogremu angu-390 ngokwesilinganiso umuntu ngamunye ongumFulentshi ngonyaka. Noma imigqomo engama-260. Noma i-1,5 kg yemfucuza ngosuku nomuntu ngamunye. Kulo mfucuza, u-21% kuphela ogaywa kabusha futhi u-14% uya kumquba (uma abantu benawo). Okusele, u-29% uya ngqo endaweni yokushisela futhi u-36% uya ezindaweni zokulahla imfucumfucu (ngokuvamile izindawo zokulahla imfucumfucu) *. 390 kg! Isibalo singenza ngiqaphele umthwalo wethu ngamunye kulesi simo. Isikhathi sokuthatha isinyathelo.

Okuhlangenwe nakho kokuqala, ukwehluleka kokuqala

« Berrrk… akulungile », izingane zami zisho, zixubha amazinyo ngomuthi wamazinyo engisanda kuwenza. Ngathatha i-baking soda, ubumba olumhlophe, namaconsi amabili noma amathathu amafutha abalulekile awolintshi. Umyeni wami naye usonta ikhala lakhe ngenkathi exubha amazinyo. I-fiasco iphelele. Angiyeki phambi kwalokhu kuphazamiseka kokuqala… kodwa ngithenga umuthi wokuxubha epayipini, ukuze kujabule wonke umuntu, isikhathi sokuthola esinye isisombululo. Uma kukhulunywa ngezimonyo, ngishintsha amakotini ami okususa izimonyo kuboya bawo kanye nozakwabo bendwangu. Ngisusa ukwakheka ngamafutha e-alimondi engiwathenga ebhodleleni lengilazi (elingasetshenziswa kabusha ngokungapheli). Ngezinwele, wonke umndeni ushintshela ku-shampoo eqinile, efanelekile kithi sonke.

Ukuguqula amakhasi abe "igolide eliluhlaza"

Eminye imfucuza yezinto eziphilayo, njengokucwecwa, amagobolondo amaqanda noma amagobolondo ekhofi akwenzi lutho kudoti ovamile ngoba angaguqulwa abe umquba (noma izindlela zokupheka ezilwa nodoti). Lapho sihlala efulethini, sasithole (mahhala) emnyangweni wethu iqoqo elithi 'vermicomposter' laso sonke isakhiwo. Manje njengoba sesihlala endlini, ngamisa umquba ngamunye ekhoneni lengadi. Ngengeza umlotha wokhuni, amakhadibhodi (ikakhulukazi ukupakisha amaqanda), namaqabunga afile. Umhlabathi otholakele (emva kwezinyanga ezimbalwa) uzophinde usetshenziswe engadini. Yeka injabulo: udoti usuvele uhhafu!

Yenqaba ukupakisha

Ukuya 'ku-zero waste' kusho ukuchitha isikhathi sakho wenqaba. Yenqaba iphepha lesinkwa ezizungeze i-baguette. Yenqaba irisidi noma uyicele nge-imeyili. Emoyizela, yenqaba isikhwama sepulasitiki esinikezwa sona. Kuzwakala kuyinqaba ekuqaleni, ikakhulukazi njengoba ekuqaleni, ngivame ukukhohlwa ukuphatha izikhwama zendwangu nami. Umphumela: Ngiza ekhaya nama-chouquette angu-10 anamathele ekugwetshweni kwezingalo zami. Kuyahlekisa.

Buyela 'kokwenziwe ekhaya'

Ayisathengi (cishe) imikhiqizo epakishiwe, lokho kusho ukuthi akusekho ukudla okuphekiwe. Kungazelelwe, senza okwengeziwe ukupheka ekhaya. Izingane zijabule, nomyeni. Isibonelo, senze isinqumo sokungabe sisawathenga amabhisikidi ezimboni apakishiwe. Umphumela: njalo ngempelasonto, kuthatha cishe ihora ukupheka inqwaba yamakhukhi, i-compote yasekhaya noma ama-cereal bar "enziwe ekhaya".. Indodakazi yami eneminyaka engu-8 ubudala isiba isihlabani segceke lesikole: abangani bayo bayahlanya ngamakhukhi akhe enziwe ekhaya futhi iyaziqhenya kakhulu ngokuthi iwenze ukusuka ku-A kuya ku-Z. Iphuzu elihle le-ecology… kanye nokuzimela kwayo!

I-hypermarket ayikakalungeli ukumoshwa okuyize

Cishe akunakwenzeka ukuthenga imfucuza esitolo. Ngisho nasemnyangweni wokudla, bayenqaba ukunginikeza i-Tupperware yengilazi yami. “Umbuzo wenhlanzeko” uphendula isisebenzi. Owesibili ungihlebela: " Uma uphase nami ngeke ibe khona inkinga “. Nginquma ukuyiyeka emakethe. Umenzi kashizi engicela kuye ukuthi anginikeze ushizi ngqo ku-Tupperware yami unginika ukumamatheka okukhulu: “ Akunankinga, ngizokwenzela i-“tare” (setha kabusha ibhalansi ibe nguziro) futhi yilokho ”. Yena, wawina iklayenti. Okunye, ngithenga imikhiqizo ngobuningi esitolo sezinto eziphilayo: irayisi, i-pasta, ama-alimondi aphelele, okusanhlamvu kwezingane, izithelo nemifino ezikhwameni ezivundisiwe noma zendwangu, namabhodlela engilazi (amafutha, amajusi)

Geza indlu yakho (cishe) ngaphandle kokupakisha

Ngenza umkhiqizo wethu womshini wokuwasha izitsha. Umjikelezo wokuqala uyinhlekelele: ngaphezu kwemizuzu engama-30, izitsha zingcolile kunangesikhathi zifakwa, ngoba insipho yaseMarseille inamathele endaweni. Ukuhlolwa kwesibili: qala umjikelezo omude (ihora elingu-1 imizuzu engu-30) futhi izitsha ziphelele. Ngifaka noviniga omhlophe esikhundleni sosizo lokuwasha. Elondolo, ngisebenzisa iresiphi yomndeni we-zero waste *, futhi ngengeza amaconsi ambalwa kawoyela we-Tea trea ebalulekile elondolo lami. Iwashi liphuma likhuhle kahle, linephunga elimnandi. Futhi futhi iyonga kakhulu! Esikhathini esingangonyaka, lokho kungama-euro angamashumi amathathu alondolozwe kunokuthenga imiphongolo yezingubo!

Isiphetho: sikwazile ukunciphisa!
