Hey abahloli basezidolophini, abahamba epakini, abahambi bekhampasi, kunye nee-eco-conscious sippers! Kwihlabathi elitshona kwiplastiki esetyenziswa kanye, kukho igorha elithobekileyo elinikezela ngokuzolileyo, ukuhlaziyeka okufikelelekayo: umthombo wokusela woluntu. Ihlala ingahoywa, ngamanye amaxesha ingathenjwa, kodwa iphinda iphinde yenziwe ngokutsha, ezi zilungiso ziziingceba ezibalulekileyo zeziseko zoluntu. Masilahle ibala kwaye siphinde sifumane ubugcisa bokurhabula koluntu!

Ngaphaya kwe "Ew" Factor: Iintsomi zoMthombo wokuBusting

Masithethe nendlovu egumbini: “Ingaba imithombo yoluntu ikhuselekile ngenene?” Impendulo emfutshane? Ngokuqhelekileyo, ewe - ngakumbi namhlanje, ezigcinwe kakuhle. Nasi isizathu:

Amanzi kaMasipala Avavanywa Ngokungqongqo: Imithombo yamanzi etephu yokutyisa amanzi kawonke-wonke iphantsi kovavanyo olungqongqo kakhulu kunamanzi asebhotileni. Izinto eziluncedo kufuneka zihlangabezane nemigangatho yoMthetho waManzi okuSela ngokuKhuselekileyo we-EPA.

Amanzi Ayaqukuqela: Amanzi amileyo ayaxhalabisa; amanzi aqukuqelayo asuka kwisixokelelwano esicinezelekileyo akanakufane agcine iibhaktheriya eziyingozi kanye kwindawo yonikezelo.

Ubuchwephesha banamhlanje buTshintsho lomdlalo:

Ukusebenza okungenakuchukumisa: Izinzwa zisusa isidingo sokutyhala amaqhosha entsholongwane okanye izibambo.

IiFillers zebhotile: I-spouts ezinikeleyo, e-angled ithintela ukudibana komlomo ngokupheleleyo.

Izinto ezilwa ne-Antimicrobial: I-alloys yobhedu kunye neengubo zithintela ukukhula kwe-microbial ebusweni.

UHlulo oluPhezulu: Iiyunithi ezininzi ezitsha zineefilitha ezakhelwe ngaphakathi (ezidla ngokuba yikhabhoni okanye intlenga) ngokukodwa kumthombo/isigcwalisi sebhotile.

ULondolozo lweMigaqo: Oomasipala kunye namaziko ahloniphekileyo acwangcise ukucoca, ukucoceka, kunye nokuhlolwa komgangatho wamanzi kwimithombo yabo.

Kutheni iMithombo yoLuntu ibaluleke ngakumbi kunangaphambili:

I-Plastiki Apocalypse Fighter: Yonke into efunxa emthonjeni endaweni yebhotile ikhusela inkunkuma yeplastiki. Khawuthelekelele impembelelo ukuba izigidi zethu bezikhetha lo mthombo kube kanye ngosuku! #GcwalisaIngagcwaliswa ngokutsha

UBulungisa beHydration: Babonelela ngofikelelo lwasimahla, olubalulekileyo kumanzi akhuselekileyo kuye wonke umntu: abantwana abadlala epakini, abantu abanengxaki yokungabi namakhaya, abasebenzi, abakhenkethi, abafundi, abantu abadala abahambahambayo. Amanzi lilungelo lomntu, hayi imveliso yodidi.

Ukukhuthaza Imikhwa esempilweni: Ukufikelela lula emanzini kukhuthaza abantu (ingakumbi abantwana) ukuba bakhethe amanzi ngaphezu kweziselo ezineswekile ngelixa bephumile.

IiNdawo zoLuntu: Umthombo osebenzayo wenza iipaki, iindlela, iiplaza, kunye neekhampasi zamkeleke ngakumbi kwaye ziphile.

Ukomelela: Ngexesha lamaza obushushu okanye ixesha likaxakeka, imithombo yoluntu iba zizixhobo ezibalulekileyo zoluntu.

Dibana noSapho lwale mihla loMthombo:

Zimkile iintsuku zomhlwa nje omnye! Izikhululo zale mihla zikawonke-wonke zokuhanjiswa kwamanzi ziza ngeendlela ezininzi:

I-Bubble yakudala: Umthombo oqhelekileyo othe tye onespout sokurhabula. Khangela insimbi engenasici okanye ukwakhiwa kobhedu kunye nemigca ecocekileyo.

I-Bottle Filling Station Champion: Ihlala idityaniswa ne-spout yendabuko, le nto ibonisa i-sensor-activated, i-spigot ehamba phambili ehamba phambili e-angled ngokugqibeleleyo ukuzalisa iibhotile ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe. Umtshintshi-mdlalo! Uninzi luneekhawunta ezibonisa iibhotile zeplastiki ezigciniweyo.

I-ADA-Compliant Access Unit Unit: iyilwe kumphakamo ofanelekileyo kwaye inococeko kubasebenzisi bezitulo ezinamavili.

I-Splash Pad Combo: Ifunyenwe kwiindawo zokudlala, idibanisa amanzi okusela kunye nokudlala.

INkcazelo yezoBugcisa: Izixeko kunye neekhampasi zifaka imithombo ethambileyo, enobugcisa eyandisa iindawo zoluntu.

Ubuchule bokuntywila ngobuchule: Ukusebenzisa iMithombo ngokuzithemba

Ngelixa ikhuselekile ngokubanzi, i-savvy encinci ihamba indlela ende:

Jonga phambi kokuba utsibe (okanye utshize):

Umqondiso: Ngaba kukho uphawu oluthi “Alusebenzi” okanye “Amanzi Angaselwa”? Yimamele!

Ujongo olubonakalayo: Ngaba i-spout ibonakala icocekile? Ngaba isitya asinayo inkunkuma ebonakalayo, amagqabi, okanye inkunkuma? Ngaba amanzi ahamba ngokukhululekileyo nangokucacileyo?

Indawo: Gwema imithombo ekufutshane neengozi ezicacileyo (njengenja ibaleka ngaphandle kwamanzi afanelekileyo, inkunkuma enzima, okanye amanzi amileyo).

Umthetho othi "Mawusebenze": Ngaphambi kokusela okanye ukugcwalisa ibhotile yakho, vumela amanzi ukuba aqhube imizuzwana ye-5-10. Oku kugungxula nawaphi na amanzi ekusenokwenzeka ukuba ebehleli ngxi kwisixhobo ngokwaso.

Isihluzi seBhodlela> Ukuntywila ngokuthe ngqo (Xa Kunokwenzeka): Ukusebenzisa i-spout yokugcwalisa ibhotile ezinikeleyo yeyona ndlela icocekileyo, ukuphelisa unxibelelwano lomlomo kunye nesixhobo. Hlala uphethe ibhotile enokusetyenziswa kwakhona!

Nciphisa uQhagamshelwano: Sebenzisa abenzi boluvo abangachukumisiyo ukuba bakhona. Ukuba kufuneka ucofe iqhosha, sebenzisa iqhosha okanye ingqiniba, hayi incam yomnwe wakho. Kuphephe ukubamba i-spout ngokwayo.

Suku “Qhuba” okanye Ubeke uMlomo Wakho kwiSpout: Shenxisa umlomo wakho kancinane phezu komlambo. Fundisa abantwana ukuba benze okufanayo.

Yezilwanyana Zasekhaya? Sebenzisa imithombo yezilwanyana ezifuywayo echongiweyo ukuba ikhona. Musa ukuvumela izinja zisele ngokuthe ngqo kwimithombo yabantu.

Iingxaki zeNgxelo: Bona umthombo owaphukileyo, omdaka, okanye okrokrisayo? Yixele kugunyaziwe onoxanduva (isithili sepaki, iholo yesixeko, izibonelelo zesikolo). Nceda uzigcine zisebenza!

Ngaba Ubusazi?

Ii-apps ezininzi ezidumileyo ezifana neTap (findtapwater.org), Gcwalisa kwakhona (refill.org.uk), kunye neeMephu zikaGoogle (khangela "umthombo wamanzi" okanye "isikhululo sokuzalisa ibhotile") zinokukunceda ukuba ufumane imithombo yoluntu kufutshane!

Amaqela enkxaso afana neDrinking Water Alliance yintshatsheli yokufakelwa nokugcinwa kwemithombo yokusela yoluntu.

Intsomi yamanzi abandayo: Ngelixa emnandi, amanzi abandayo akakhuselekanga ngokwendalo. Ukhuseleko luvela kumthombo wamanzi kunye nenkqubo.

Ikamva Lokukhutshelwa kwamanzi kuLuntu: Gcwalisa kwakhona iNguqulelo!

Intshukumo iyakhula:

Iinkqubo “zokugcwalisa kwakhona”: Amashishini (iikhefi, iivenkile) abonisa izincamathelisi ezamkela abantu abadlulayo ukuba baphinde bazalise iibhotile simahla.

Amagunya: Ezinye izixeko/amazwe ngoku zifuna izigcwalisi zeebhotile kwizakhiwo ezitsha zoluntu kunye neepaki.

Utshintsho: Iiyunithi ezisebenza ngelanga, iimonitha ezidityanisiweyo zomgangatho wamanzi, kwanemithombo eyongeza i-electrolytes? Izinto ezinokwenzeka zinika umdla.

Umgca ongezantsi: Phakamisa iglasi (okanye ibhotile) ukuya eMthonjeni!

Imithombo yokusela yoluntu ayikho nje isinyithi namanzi; zizisimboli zempilo yoluntu, ulingano, uzinzo, kunye nokhathalelo loluntu. Ngokukhetha ukuzisebenzisa (ngengqondo!), Ukukhuthaza ukugcinwa kunye nokufakwa kwazo, kwaye uhlala uphethe ibhotile enokuphinda isetyenziswe, sixhasa iplanethi enempilo kunye noluntu olunobulungisa.
