Ukujongana nengxaki yongcoliseko lomoya eIndiya: Izicoci zomoya zifuneka ngokukhawuleza

Uhlolisiso lwakutshanje olwenziwa yiYunivesithi yaseChicago lubonise impembelelo eyothusayo yongcoliseko lomoya kubomi bamaIndiya. Uphononongo lubonise ukuba amaIndiya alahlekelwa ngumyinge weminyaka emi-5 yokuphila ngenxa yomgangatho womoya oyingozi. Okothusayo kukuba, imeko yayimbi ngakumbi eDelhi, apho iminyaka yokuphila yehla ngeminyaka eyi-12. Ucinga ngezi nkcukacha-manani zimbi, kufanelekile ukuba kuxoxwe ngemfuneko engxamisekileyoabacoci bomoyaeIndiya.

I-Indiya, eyaziwa ngokuba nenkcubeko etyebileyo kunye neendawo ezintle zomhlaba, ikwajongene nengxaki enkulu yongcoliseko lomoya. Ukukhula kwabantu ezidolophini, ushishino olungalawulwayo, ukukhutshwa kwezithuthi, nokulawulwa kwenkunkuma ngendlela engafanelekanga kube negalelo ekuwohlokeni komgangatho womoya kulo lonke ilizwe. Ngenxa yoko, impilo nempilo-ntle yezigidi zamaIndiya iye yachaphazeleka kanobom.

Ukubaluleka kweIzihluzi ze-HEPA: I-HEPA (i-High Efficiency Particulate Air) izihlungi ziyinxalenye ebalulekileyo yokucoca umoya. Ezi zihluzo ziyakwazi ukubamba kunye nokususa izinto ezingcolisa umoya zangaphakathi ezifana ne-fine particulate matter (PM2.5), i-pollen, i-dust mites, ibhaktheriya kunye neentsholongwane. Njengoko sichitha ixesha lethu elininzi ngaphakathi ezindlwini, ngakumbi kwimimandla yasezidolophini enamazinga aphezulu ongcoliseko lomoya wangaphandle, ukutyala imali kwisicoci somoya esinesihluzi se-HEPA kuye kwabaluleka.

Imiphumo emibi yempilo yokuvezwa kwexesha elide kumoya ongcolileyo zininzi kwaye zinzulu. Amasuntswana amancinci kumoya ongcolisekileyo anokungena lula kwinkqubo yethu yokuphefumla, ebangela isifo sokukrala kwesifuba esingapheliyo, isifuba, kunye nomhlaza wemiphunga kunye nezinye izifo zokuphefumla. Ukongeza, ukungcoliseka komoya kunokukhokelela kwiingxaki zentliziyo, i-allergies kunye nolunye usulelo lokuphefumla. Ngokufakaizicoci zomoya ezinezihluzo ze-HEPAemakhayeni, ezikolweni, eziofisini nakwiindawo zikawonke-wonke, sinokuwunciphisa kakhulu umngcipheko wokuba sesichengeni sexesha elide kumoya ongcolileyo.

Ukuqonda ubukhulu bengxaki yongcoliseko lomoya, uRhulumente waseIndiya, ngokubambisana nabachaphazelekayo abahlukeneyo, uthatha amanyathelo okujongana nalo mba. Elinye lalo manyathelo kukwakhiwa kwenqaba yomoya eDelhi, ejolise ekunciphiseni amanqanaba ongcoliseko lomoya. Ixhotyiswe ngetekhnoloji ephucukileyo yokucoca umoya, le nqaba kulindeleke ukuba isebenze njengezikhuselo, ihluze izinto ezingcolisa umoya kunye nokuphucula umgangatho womoya kwindawo engqongileyo. Nangona eli ilinyathelo elilungileyo kwicala elifanelekileyo, iinzame zabantu ngabanye ngokusebenzisa izicoci zomoya ezinezihluzo ze-HEPA azinakungahoywa.

Ukuqukumbela, umlo waseIndiya wokuchasana nokungcoliseka komoya ufuna intshukumo ehlangeneyo engxamisekileyo. Ngelixa imilinganiselo emikhulu efana neenqaba zasemoyeni ibalulekile, wonke umntu unokuba negalelo ekuphenduleni le ngxaki. Iyahlohlaizicoci zomoya ezinezihluzo ze-HEPAemakhayeni ethu nakwiindawo esisebenza kuzo zinokusinika umoya ococekileyo nosempilweni wangaphakathi, zikhusele impilo-ntle yethu kwaye zithobe iziphumo ezibi zongcoliseko. Ngoku lixesha lokuba sibeke phambili ukubaluleka komoya ococekileyo kubomi bethu kwaye sisebenzisane ukudala impilo enempilo, ikamva elizinzileyo lethu kunye nezizukulwana ezizayo.
