Urhulumente waseBritane wasandula ukwenza isibhengezo esibalulekileyo malunga nokusetyenziswa kweesisulwa zamanzi, ngakumbi ezo zineplastiki. Umthetho, omiselwe ukuvala ukusetyenziswa kweplastiki, iza njengempendulo kwiinkxalabo ezikhoyo malunga nefuthe lokusingqongileyo nezempilo zezi mveliso. Iplastiki yeplastiki, eyaziwa ngokufuthi isule okanye isule isundu, ibilukhetho oludumileyo lwezobuchwephesha kunye neenjongo zokucoca. Nangona kunjalo, ukwakheka kwabo kuphakanyisile ii-alamu ngenxa yokubenzakalisa kubo bobabini impilo kunye nokusingqongileyo.
Iplastiki yeplastiki iyaziwa ukuba iphule ixesha elingaphezulu kwe-microplastics, enxibelelene neziphumo ezibi kwimpilo yabantu kunye nokuphazamiseka kwendalo. Uphando lubonakalisile ukuba ezi zikrikhi zinokuqokelelwa kwindalo, kunye novavanyo lwakutsha nje lokutyhila umndilili we-20 ukufunyanwa kweemitha ezili-100 kwiilwandle ezahlukeneyo. Kanye kwimo yamanzi, i-Suls equkethe iplastiki inokufumana i-qualunts yebhayiloji nengquzulwano, ibeka umngcipheko wokuvezwa kwezilwanyana nabantu. Oku kuqokelelwa kwee-microplastics akuchaphazeli kuphela indalo yendalo kodwa kwandisa umngcipheko wongcoliseko kwiindawo zonyango lwamanzi amdaka kwaye kunegalelo ekungcoleni kweelwandle kunye neendlela eziphezulu.
Ukuvalwa kweplastiki equlathe iplastiki eneenkcukacha zokunciphisa iplastiki kunye nongcoliseko lwamantshontsho, ekugqibeleni zixhamle indalo kunye nempilo yoluntu. Abathengisi abathintela ukuba bathintele ukusetyenziswa kwezi pulplastas, isixa semicroprics esiphelela kwiindawo zonyango lwamanzi amdaka ngenxa yokulahla imposiso kuya kuncitshiswa kakhulu. Oku, kuya kuba nempembelelo entle kumanxweme kunye nokunceda ukugcina ezi ndawo zendalo kwizizukulwana ezizayo.
I-European Novenness Invelo (Edana) ibonakalise inkxaso yayo kumthetho, evuma iinzame ezenziwe yi-UK iSuls isungula ukusetyenziswa kweplastiki kwikhaya elisuswe yiplastiki. Umbutho ugxininise ukubaluleka kotshintsho lwamakhaya ahamba ngeplastiki kwaye ubonakalise ukuzibophelela kwakhe ekusebenzeni norhulumente ukuze uphumeze kwaye uqhube phambili eli nyathelo.
Ukuphendula kwisibhengezo, iinkampani kwimveliso esuliweyo ziphononongisisa ezinye izinto kunye neendlela zemveliso. I-Johnson kunye ne-Neutrogena Brand ye-Netrogena Brand, umzekelo, idibene ne-veocel ye-veocel ye-veocel ye-veocel ye-fuocel yokuguqula i-fiber yokutsala i-fiber esekwe kwi-100% yefibre. Ngokusebenzisa imicu ye-veocel eyenziwe ngeenkuni ezihlaziyiweyo, ezenziwa ngamahlathi alawulwayo alawulwayo kwaye aqinisekiswe, iisisu eziqinisekisiweyo ngoku zininzi kakhulu ekhaya kwiintsuku ezingama-35, ngokufanelekileyo ukunciphisa inkunkuma ephela emhlabeni.
Ukutshintsha ukuya kwezinye iindlela ezizinzileyo nezikude ngokusingqongileyo kubonisa ulwazi olukhulayo lwemfuno yokujongana nefuthe lemo engqongileyo yeemveliso zabathengi. Ngokuvalwa kwiplastiki, kukho ithuba leshishini le-SURDS le-Inness kwi-Inness kunye nokuphuhlisa iimveliso ezingasebenziyo kuphela kodwa okusibeka kwendalo. Ngokwamkela izixhobo ezizinzileyo kunye neenkqubo zemveliso, iinkampani zinokuba negalelo ekunciphiseni ukungcoliseka kweplastiki kunye nokukhuthaza ikamva lezempilo, elizinzileyo.
Ukuqukumbela, isigqibo sikarhulumente saseBritane sokuvalwa kweplastiki esineplastiki siphawula inyathelo elibalulekileyo lokujongana neenkxalabo zendalo esingqongileyo kunye nezempilo ezinxulunyaniswa nezi mveliso. Intshukumo ixhaswe inkxaso kwimibutho yoMveliso kwaye ikhuthaze iinkampani ukuba ziphonononge ezinye iindlela ezizinzileyo. Njengoko ishishini le-Supes liyaqhubeka nokuvela, kukho ithuba elikhulayo lokubeka phambili ukuzinza kwendalo kunye nokubonelela ngeemveliso zabathengi ezihambelana neenqobo zabo. Ekugqibeleni, ukuvalwa komsebenzi kwiplastiki kubonisa inyathelo elifanelekileyo lokunciphisa ungcoliseko lweplastiki kunye nokukhuthaza indalo esicocekileyo, esempilweni kubo bonke.
