ʻO nā kīʻaha kofe maikaʻi loa a maikaʻi ʻole loa ma ka honua, i koho ʻia

I ka wā o ka maʻi maʻi, ua lilo ka nui o mākou i poʻe akamai i ka hana ʻana i ka kofe (ʻo ka hana ʻana i nā latte a me nā cappuccino) ma ka home.Eia nō naʻe, inā ua lapaʻau ʻia ʻoe ma mua o kēia makahiki, he pōmaikaʻi nui paha ʻoe e kipa hou i ka hale kūʻai kofe kūloko e kiʻi i ka mea hoʻihoʻi caffeine i kēlā me kēia lā.Haleluia!
Akā, ma hope o ka inu ʻana i ke kīʻaha seramika ma ka home no hoʻokahi makahiki a ʻoi aʻe paha, e nānā koke ʻoe i ka pepa a i ʻole ke kīʻaha plastik a noʻonoʻo, "Pehea ka ʻino o kēia i ke kaiapuni?"
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Isaac Emery, ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu a me ke kūkākūkā nui o Informed Sustainability Consulting, ʻaʻole maikaʻi kēia.
"ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻomau ʻia nā mea hoʻopau," i ʻōlelo ʻo Emery i ka Huffington Post."He nui nā ʻano mea like ʻole ka hoʻomau ʻana, akā i kēlā me kēia hihia, ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo e hoʻohana hoʻokahi a hoʻopau ʻia.ʻO ka hana ʻana pēlā e loaʻa mau ai nā koina kaiapuni.
ʻOiai mākou e noʻonoʻo nei i ka pepa he mea hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia, ʻōlelo ʻo Emery, ʻo ka lining waxy e pale ai i nā kīʻaha kīʻaha mai ka hāʻule ʻana ke hoʻopiha ʻia me ka wai e paʻakikī kēia.No ka laʻana, ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Starbucks e noʻonoʻo pehea e hana hou ai i kāna mau kīʻaha pepa no nā makahiki.
"ʻO nā kīʻaha pepa ka pepa i ʻōwili ʻia i loko me ka uhi polymer (plastic), no laila ʻaʻole hiki ke hana hou ʻia a pono e hoʻouna ʻia i kahi ʻāina," wahi a Mark Driscoll, he loea hoʻomau a hoʻokumu i ka hui kūkākūkā ʻo Tasting the Future."Akā, ʻo nā kīʻaha i kapa ʻia ʻo 'biodegradable a i ʻole compostable' e hoʻopaʻa pinepine ʻia me ka poly(lactic acid) a hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia."
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ma muli o ka nele o nā hale hoʻopuehu a i ʻole nā ​​kumukūʻai e pili ana i ka compost, ʻo ka hapa nui o ia mau mea e pau ana i nā pae ʻāina.Eia kekahi, "no ka hoʻokō ʻana i ke koi no ka pepa pepa (pepa i hoʻohana ʻia no nā kīʻaha), hiki ke ʻoki ʻia nā kumulāʻau e like me Russia a me Brazil, a ʻaʻole i hana ʻia ka hapa nui o nā kumulāʻau mai ka pepa hana hou ʻia," wahi a Driscoll."No ka hōʻoia ʻana e hoʻohana ke kīʻaha i ka pepa pahu mai nā kumu lāʻau hoʻomau, e ʻoluʻolu e nānā i ka FSC (Forestry Management Mark)."
ʻAʻole ʻae ʻia ka nui o nā kīʻaha plastik i hoʻohana ʻia no nā mea inu hau e ka papahana recycling.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Driscoll: "Ua hana ʻia ka hapa nui o ka polypropylene, ʻaʻole i ʻae ʻia i nā papahana hana hou ma ke alanui."
Makemake ʻoe e haʻalele i ka inu kofe a pau?ʻAʻole wikiwiki loa.ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kaiapuni ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe.Eia, koho ʻo Driscoll lāua ʻo Emery i nā koho kīʻaha āpau:
ʻOiai aia mākou ma kahi ʻano ʻano ʻē i ka wā o ka maʻi maʻi, inā ʻoe e noho maoli i loko o kahi hale kūʻai kofe (malia paha he noho waho lākou) a ʻoluʻolu i ka inu ʻana i kā lākou mau kīʻaha seramika, ʻo ia ke ala paʻa loa e like me ka ʻōlelo a Emmer. inu kofe mai ka hale kūʻai kofe.No ka mea hiki ke holoi ʻia kēia mau mea i loko o ka mea holoi kīʻaha, hoʻohana lākou i ka ikehu liʻiliʻi (a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ke kopa) ma mua o nā mea pono e holoi lima ʻia (e like me nā aniani huakaʻi).
"Hiki i ka hoʻomau ke ʻano o nā mea like ʻole, akā i kēlā me kēia hihia, ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo e hoʻohana hoʻokahi a hoʻopau ʻia."
Inā lawe ʻoe i kāu ʻeke huakaʻi ponoʻī (ʻo ke kīʻaha Copco i hōʻike ʻia ma ke kiʻi ma lalo nei), ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o kahi kīʻaha hoʻopau, akā ʻaʻole kūpono.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Emery: "ʻO ka hana ʻana i nā mea e like me ke kila kila, a i ʻole ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, hiki ke loaʻa i nā kīʻaha plastic i ka hopena i ke kaiapuni.Koʻikoʻi nā pahu huakaʻi palaki, ʻo ia hoʻi he nui ka plastic i loko.
Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻoe e hoʻohana pinepine iā ia, ʻo kahi pahu lawe lawe no ka huakaʻi he koho maikaʻi loa ia."Inā ʻoe e hoʻohana i ka pahu huakaʻi 50, 100, a i ʻole 200 mau manawa, e hoʻemi nui ʻia ke kumukūʻai kaiapuni," wahi a Emery.
Ma ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i ka poʻi plastik, e hoʻohana liʻiliʻi ʻoe i ka plastic (ʻoiai e ʻoi aku ka anuanu o kāu inu)."Inā loaʻa i ka [ kīʻaha] kahi lāʻau lāʻau biodegradable, hoʻonui ʻia ia i B," wahi a Driscoll.
No ka hoʻohui ʻana o ka poʻi i ka plastic hou, ʻoi aku ka ʻino o ke kaiapuni ma mua o ke kīʻaha pepa me ka uhi ʻole.
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, inā kūʻai ʻoe i ka kofe hau i loko o ke kīʻaha plastik, he liʻiliʻi nā ala e lanakila ai."He mau pilikia nā kīʻaha plastik i hoʻohana ʻia no nā mea inu hau a ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia i nā papahana hana hou," wahi a Driscoll.
ʻOiai ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā mauʻu pepa ma mua o nā mauʻu plastik (ʻo ka liʻiliʻi o ka plastic a mākou e hoʻohana ai, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi), ʻōlelo ʻo Emery i ka wā e uhi ʻia ai lākou i ka kofe, ʻaʻole hiki ke hana hou ʻia.
Hōʻike ʻo Emery inā makemake ʻoe e hōʻemi i kou kapuaʻi kalapona i ke koho ʻana i nā kīʻaha lawe i waho e maikaʻi ʻole i ke kaiapuni, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻāʻo e koho i nā mea inu kofe hoʻomau.
"ʻO ka mea inu āu e inu maoli ai he hopena nui aʻe i ke kaiapuni ma mua o ke kīʻaha kofe," wahi āna."No laila, inā makemake ʻoe e hōʻemi i kekahi o nā hopena o ke kīʻaha lawe ʻia, e ʻoluʻolu e kūʻai mai i nā mea inu ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi."
ʻO kekahi ala ʻo ke koho ʻana i ka waiū meaʻai ma mua o ka waiū no ka mea he liʻiliʻi ka wāwae kalapona.A i ʻole ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, inu i kāu kofe ʻeleʻele.“ʻO ka waiū ka mea pōʻino loa i ke kaiapuni, ukali ʻia e ka kofe, a ma hope o nā kīʻaha.Inā makemake ʻoe e koho i ka mea inu maikaʻi loa no ke kaiapuni, e kauoha i kīʻaha kofe ʻAmelika a i ʻole kofe ʻeleʻele," wahi a Emery.
I kēia manawa ua ʻike maopopo ʻoe pehea e hoʻomau ai i kāu mea inu kofe e lawe i waho, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻi a hopohopo no ka pōʻino o kāu waihona waihona.
