Ucwaningo olusha olukhishwe namuhla, ngoSuku Lomhlaba Lwezempilo, lubonise imithelela yezempilo yabantu elimaza kakhulu ehlobene nokulima kwezimboni nokuthi lokhu kuzokhula kanjani njengoba isidingo senyama siqhubeka sikhula kuwo wonke amagumbi omhlaba.
Umbiko wakamuva we-World Animal Protection, The Hidden Health Impacts of Industrial Livestock Systems, udalula indlela ohulumeni emhlabeni wonke abakushaya ngayo indiva ukwehla kwezempilo yomphakathi kwezinhlelo zezolimo zezimboni kanye nokuhlupheka kwezigidigidi zezilwane ezifuywayo.
I-Canada isivele iyizwe lesi-8 eliphakeme kakhulu elidla inyama futhi ngo-2030, ukusetshenziswa kwenyama kulindeleke ukuthi kukhule ngo-30% e-Afrika, 18% e-Asia Pacific, 12% eLatin America, 9% eNyakatho Melika kanye no-0.4% e-Europei. Lesi sidingo esikhulayo senza izigidi zezigidi zezilwane ezicindezelekile zihlupheke futhi zivalelwe emakhejini aminyene nayinyumba noma ezibayeni impilo yazo yonke. Ngaphezu kwama-70% ezinhlelo zokulima zezilwane zasezweni eziyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-80 unyaka ngamunye.
Ucwaningo lwakha phezu komqondo wezindlela ezinhlanu "izindlela zokudla ezithinta kabi impilo yethu", ezichazwe yi-World Health Organization embikweni wabo we-2021, Food Systems Delivering Better Healthii. I-World Animal Protection inemininingwane yokuthi le mithelela emibi yezempilo ihlotshaniswa kanjani ngokuqondile nezolimo zezilwane zezimboni:
1. Ukungondleki kahle nokukhuluphala ngokweqile: Izinhlelo zokulima zezimboni sezisuse ukukhiqizwa kokudla kwendawo nokuqhubekayo. Ngaso leso sikhathi, inani eliphezulu lenyama eshibhile ekhiqizwayo livumela ukusetshenziswa kwenyama ngokweqile - enye yezinto ezihamba phambili engozini yokugula okungapheliiii.
2. Ama-Superbugs nezifo: Izingxenye ezintathu kwezine zemithi elwa namagciwane emhlabeni isetshenziswa ezilwaneni ezifuywayo - umkhuba oqhuba ukuvela kwamagciwane amelana namagciwane. Futhi, amapulazi ezimboni afaka izilwane ezicindezelekile emashedeni agcwele ngokuqinile, ezibeka engcupheni yezifo ezinjengomkhuhlane wezingulube noma umkhuhlane wezinyoni ongagxumela kubantu.
3. Izifo ezitholakala ekudleni: Ukulima ezimbonini kudala amazinga aphezulu okucindezeleka ezilwaneni, okuzishiya zithambekele kumagciwane noma izilokazane ezingabangela izifo ezibangelwa ukudla kubantu, njenge-Salmonella.
4. Izifo ezibangelwa ukungcoliswa kwemvelo: Izinsimbi ezinzima njenge-zinc zengezwa ekudleni kwezilwane ezifuywayo ezimbonini futhi zingcolise imizila yamanzi. Izibulala-zinambuzane eziningi ziya ezitshalweni ezihloselwe ukuphakela izilwane ezihluphekayo emapulazini ezimboni kunanoma iyiphi enye indawo.
5. Imithelela engokomzimba nengokwengqondo kubasebenzi - Imithelela engokomzimba nengokwengqondo etholwa abasebenzi basemapulazini ezimboni ihlanganisa izimo ezimbi zokusebenza lapho kuhlatshwa inyama, izindawo zokucubungula nokupakisha, ukulimala ngokomzimba kanye nezinkinga zempilo yengqondo nengokwengqondo.
ULynn Kavanagh, iFarming Campaign Manager at World Animal Protection, uthe: “Lo mbiko uqokomisa izindleko zangempela zezinhlelo zokulima kwezilwane ezimbonini, ezinemiphumela elimazayo empilweni yethu nasendaweni ezungezile. Ukuxhumana phakathi kwendlela esiphatha ngayo izilwane, impilo yomphakathi kanye nempilo ye-ecosystem bekungacaci kahle futhi kufanele kuthathwe indlela ye-One Health, One Welfare ukuze kuthuthukiswe uhlelo lwethu lokudla.”
UDkt. Lian Thomas, Usosayensi we-International Livestock Research Institute wathi: “Impilo yezilwane ezifuywayo nendawo yazo kufanele kube yinto eza kuqala emkhakheni wezempilo womphakathi. Izinhlelo zokudla eziqhubekayo ezikhuthaza impilo nenhlalakahle yezilwane ezinhle, nokuvikelwa kwemvelo, zizovikela impilo yabantu ngokuqondile.”
Kudingeka ushintsho. I-World Animal Protection icela uhulumeni waseCanada ukuthi afundise abantu baseCanada ngezinzuzo zokudla okuningi okusekelwe ezitshalweni kanye nokudla okumbalwa kwezilwane, ngokuhambisana neCanada Food Guide, kanye nokwenza lula uguquko olusabalele ekuziphatheni kobuntu, okuqhubekayo, nokulungile. kanye nezinqubo zokulima eziqinile ezingalimazi imvelo, izilwane kanye nempilo yomphakathi.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- World Animal Protection is calling on the Canadian government to educate Canadians on the benefits of consuming more plant-based foods and fewer animal-based foods, in line with the Canada Food Guide, and to facilitate a widespread transition to more humane, sustainable, just and resilient farming practices that do not harm the environment, animals and public health.
- Umbiko wakamuva we-World Animal Protection, The Hidden Health Impacts of Industrial Livestock Systems, udalula indlela ohulumeni emhlabeni wonke abakushaya ngayo indiva ukwehla kwezempilo yomphakathi kwezinhlelo zezolimo zezimboni kanye nokuhlupheka kwezigidigidi zezilwane ezifuywayo.
- Canada is already the 8th highest meat consuming nation and by 2030, meat consumption is projected to grow 30% in Africa, 18% in the Asia Pacific, 12% in Latin America, 9% in North America and 0.
