SINGAPORE – Imboni yezokundiza ikhipha amathani ekhabhoni alinganiselwa ezigidini ezingama-600 njalo ngonyaka, futhi njengoba kunezindiza eziningi ezizofika esibhakabhakeni, kube nomfutho ekudaleni umkhakha we-carbon neutral.
Lezi zinhlelo zibandakanya intela yokukhipha imali ye-European Union ezimpahleni zezindiza, ezivivinyweni nasekuhlolweni ngamanye amafutha.
Imboni yezokundiza eqinisweni, izibophezele ekwehliseni ukukhishwa kwayo kwekhabhoni ngamaphesenti angama-50 ngo-2050, uma kuqhathaniswa no-2005.
Kodwa-ke, ezinyangeni ezisanda kwedlula, udaba lwezemvelo kanye nezokundiza seluke lwaba nengxabano ngentela ekhokhiswa izindiza yi-European Union.
Umqondisi jikelele we-International Air Transport Association uTony Tyler uthe: “Awu, isimo sokufakwa kwezinkampani zezindiza ku-EU ETS sinzima kakhulu, futhi siyinkimbinkimbi ngoba ohulumeni babona kuwukwephula ubukhosi babo ukuba bakhokhiswe intela eyengeziwe yendawo.
“Izinkampani zezindiza nazo zikubona kuyinkinga lokhu ngoba kungenisa ukuhlanekezela emakethe.
Itshekisa inkundla futhi lokhu izinkampani zezindiza ezikuthola kunzima kakhulu ukuhlala nazo.
“Izinkampani zezindiza manje sezihlela ukufeza izibopho zazo ngaphansi kombhikisho, kodwa kuzofanele zikwenze lokho. Kodwa kwamanye amazwe afana neChina, siyabona ukuthi uhulumeni waseShayina ushaye umthetho ovimbela izinkampani zabo zezindiza ukuthi zibambe iqhaza, ngakho izinkampani zezindiza zaseChina manje sezihamba phambili.
"Futhi ngesibindi bazongena empini okufanele bathathe izintambo futhi kufanele bathathe isinqumo - ngiyawuthobela umthetho waseShayina noma ngithobela umthetho waseYurophu?"
Futhi nakuba iningi labadlali bezimboni bethi indinganiso yomhlaba wonke ingaba yisixazululo esingcono kakhulu, bayavuma ukuthi kuzothatha isikhathi ukuze bonke abathintekayo bavumelane ngezinga elithile.
Okwamanje, izinkampani zezindiza kanye nabakhiqizi bezindiza bayaqonda ukuthi kunesidingo sokuthi izinkampani zezindiza zingagcini nje ngokusebenza kahle kodwa futhi zithole ezinye zezinto zokubasa.
I-Airbus Public Affairs and Communications SVP uRainer Ohler uthe: “Ngingasho ukuthi amaphesenti angu-30 kaphethiloli esiwadinga ngo-2030 angaba i-biofuel noma enye indlela.”
Ngokusho kwe-IATA, phakathi kuka-2008 no-2011, izinkampani zezindiza eziyisishiyagalolunye kanye nabakhiqizi abaningana benza izivivinyo zendiza ngenhlanganisela ehlukahlukene efinyelela kumaphesenti angama-50 kaphethiloli ovuselelekayo.
I-IATA ithe lezi zivivinyo zikhombisa ukuthi akukho ukuguqulwa kwendiza okudingekayo ukuze kusetshenziswe izinto ezivuselelekayo nokuthi zingahlanganiswa nophethiloli okhona.
Maphakathi no-2011, izindiza eziyi-11 zenze izindiza zabagibeli ezixubene ezingafika kumaphesenti angama-50 uphethiloli ovuselelekayo/wezinto eziphilayo.
Izinkampani zezindiza ezenze lezi zindiza yi-KLM, Lufthansa, Finnair, Interjet, Aeroméxico, Iberia, Thomson Airways, Air France, United, Air China kanye ne-Alaska Airlines.
