Kuye kwabalwa ukuthi uma bonke abantu emhlabeni bebedla isilinganiso esifanayo nesakhamuzi sase-US esivamile, bekuyodingeka amaplanethi anjalo amane ukuze asisekele. Indaba iba yimbi ngisho nasemazweni acebile, lapho kulinganiselwa ukuthi umhlaba kufanele usekelwe yi-5,4 amaplanethi afanayo uma sonke siphila ngezinga elifanayo ne-United Arab Emirates. Okudabukisayo futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo okugqugquzela esenzweni iqiniso lokuthi siseneplanethi eyodwa.
Kuyini ngempela ukuthengwa kwabathengi? Lolu uhlobo lokuncika okuyingozi, i-hypertrophy yezidingo zezinto ezibonakalayo. Umphakathi unethuba elikhulayo lokuzuza ukuphakama ngokusebenzisa ukusetshenziswa. Ukusetshenziswa akubi nje ingxenye, kodwa inhloso nenjongo yokuphila. Emhlabeni wanamuhla, ukusetshenziswa kobukhazikhazi sekufinyelele izinga elingakaze libonwe ngaphambili. Bheka i-Instagram: cishe konke okuthunyelwe okunikezwayo ukuthi uthenge lelo khadi, ibhulashi le-massage elomile, isesekeli, nokunye nokunye. Bakutshela ukuthi uyayidinga, kodwa ingabe uqinisekile ukuthi uyidinga ngempela?
Ngakho-ke, ukuthengwa kwezinto zanamuhla kulithinta kanjani izinga lokuphila emhlabeni wethu?
Umthelela Wokuthenga Emphakathini: Ukungalingani Kwembulunga yonke
Ukwanda okukhulu kokusetshenziswa kwezinsiza emazweni acebile kakade sekubangele igebe elikhulu phakathi kwabantu abacebile nabampofu. Njengoba isisho sisho, “abacebile bayaceba futhi abampofu baya ngokuya bampofu.” Ngo-2005, amaphesenti angama-59 ezinsiza zomhlaba asetshenziswa abantu abacebe kakhulu abangama-10% abantu. Futhi u-10% ompofu kakhulu udle kuphela u-0,5% wengcebo yomhlaba.
Ngokusekelwe kulokhu, singabheka izindlela zokusebenzisa imali futhi siqonde ukuthi le mali nezinsiza zingasetshenziswa kanjani kangcono. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha kuphela anganikeza imfundo eyisisekelo kubantu emhlabeni wonke. Enye imali eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-6 izonikeza wonke umuntu emhlabeni ukufinyelela kwamanzi ahlanzekile, ukunakekelwa kwezempilo okuyisisekelo kanye nokudla okwanele.
Manje, uma sibheka ezinye izindawo zokusebenzisa imali, singabona ukuthi umphakathi wethu usenkingeni enkulu. Unyaka ngamunye, abantu baseYurophu bachitha amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-11 bethenga u-ayisikhilimu. Yebo, ake ucabange u-ayisikhilimu! Lokho cishe kwanele ukukhulisa yonke ingane emhlabeni kabili.
Cishe amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-50 asetshenziselwa ugwayi eYurophu kuphela, futhi cishe amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-400 achithwa ezidakamizweni emhlabeni wonke. Uma singanciphisa izinga lokusebenzisa kwethu ngisho ingxenyana yalokho abayikho manje, singenza umehluko omkhulu ezimpilweni zabampofu nabaswele emhlabeni jikelele.
Umthelela wokuthenga kubantu: ukukhuluphala kanye nokuntuleka kokukhula ngokomoya
Ucwaningo lukhombisa ukuxhumana okuqinile phakathi kokukhuphuka kwesiko labathengi besimanje kanye namazinga ashaqisayo okukhuluphala esiwabona emhlabeni jikelele. Kodwa-ke, lokhu akumangazi, ngoba ukuthengwa kwabathengi kusho lokhu - ukusebenzisa okuningi ngangokunokwenzeka, hhayi okuningi esikudingayo. Lokhu kubangela umphumela we-domino emphakathini. Ukugcwala ngokweqile kuholela ekukhuluphaleni, okuholela ezinkingeni zamasiko nezenhlalo.
Izinsizakalo zezokwelapha ziya ngokuya zikhula njengoba izinga lokukhuluphala emhlabeni likhuphuka. Ngokwesibonelo, e-United States, izindleko zezokwelapha ngomuntu ngamunye zingaphezu kwamaRandi angu-2500 kubantu abakhuluphele kunabantu abanempilo enempilo.
Ngaphezu kwesisindo nezinkinga zempilo, umuntu osuthiswe yizinto ezinjengokudla, iziphuzo, izinto, uyayeka ngempela ukukhula ngokomoya. Imile ngokweqiniso, ibambezela hhayi nje kuphela intuthuko yayo, kodwa nokuthuthukiswa komphakathi wonke.
Umthelela wokusetshenziswa kwemvelo: ukungcola kanye nokuncipha kwezinsiza
Ngaphandle kwezinkinga ezisobala zezenhlalo nezomnotho, ukuthenga kuyonakalisa indawo yethu ezungezile. Njengoba isidingo sezimpahla sikhula, isidingo sokukhiqiza lezo zimpahla siyakhula. Lokhu kubangela ukwanda kwesisi esingcolisayo, ukwanda kokusetshenziswa komhlaba nokugawulwa kwamahlathi, futhi kusheshise ukushintsha kwesimo sezulu.
Sibhekene nemiphumela elimazayo ekuhlinzekeni kwethu amanzi njengoba isitoreji samanzi sincipha noma sisetshenziselwa izinqubo zokulima.
Ukulahlwa kukadoti kuba yinkinga emhlabeni wonke, futhi izilwandle zethu kancane kancane ziba imayini enkulukazi yokulahla imfucuza. Futhi okwesikhashana, ukujula kolwandle kuye kwacwaningwa yi-2-5% kuphela, futhi ososayensi bahlekisa ngokuthi lokhu kuncane kakhulu kunohlangothi olude lwenyanga. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi ngaphezu kwengxenye yepulasitiki ekhiqizwayo iwupulasitiki osetshenziswa kanye, okusho ukuthi ngemva kokuwusebenzisa ugcina ususendaweni yokulahla imfucumfucu noma endaweni ezungezile. Futhi ipulasitiki, njengoba sazi, ithatha iminyaka engaphezu kweyi-100 ukubola. Ngokusho kososayensi, kufika amathani ayizigidi ezingu-12 epulasitiki angena olwandle minyaka yonke, akhe izindawo zokulahla udoti ezinkulu ezintantayo emhlabeni wonke.
Yini esingayenza?
Ngokusobala, ngamunye wethu udinga ukunciphisa ukusetshenziswa futhi aguqule indlela yethu yokuphila yamanje, ngaphandle kwalokho iplanethi njengoba sazi ukuthi izobe ingasekho. Njengamanje sisebenzisa izinsiza ngenani elikhulu kakhulu, elidala ukucekelwa phansi kwemvelo okukhulu kanye nezinkinga zomphakathi emhlabeni jikelele.
Muva nje, i-United Nations yethule umbiko othi ubuntu beleminyaka engu-12 kuphela ukulwa nokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu, okubangelwa ukungcoliswa kwabantu.
Ungase ucabange ukuthi umuntu oyedwa akakwazi ukusindisa yonke iplanethi. Kodwa-ke, uma wonke umuntu ecabanga ngale ndlela, ngeke sigcine ngokusuka phansi, kodwa sizoshubisa isimo. Umuntu oyedwa angashintsha umhlaba ngokuba yisibonelo ezinkulungwaneni zabantu.
Yenza izinguquko ekuphileni kwakho namuhla ngokunciphisa ingcebo yakho yezinto ezibonakalayo. Izinsiza zemidiya zikuvumela ukuthi uhlole ulwazi mayelana nokugaywa kabusha kwemfucuza, osekusetshenziswe kakade ngisho nasekukhiqizeni izingubo zemfashini nesimanje. Khulisa ukuqwashisa ngale ndaba kubangani bakho kanye nojwayelene nabo ukuze abantu abaningi bathathe izinyathelo.
