Impi, Amanzi Nokuthula: Ikhwelo lokuvuka kwezokuvakasha kanye nabezindaba

Amanzi nokuguquka kwesimo sezulu yizici zeMpi nokuThula. Ezokuvakasha njengemboni yokuthula zinendima yazo. Kunezizathu eziningi zokuthi kungani amazwe eya empini. Izimbangela ezivame kakhulu izingxabano zezindawo nobuzwe. Kukhona, nokho, into eyodwa esemqoka engadonsi ukunaka okufanayo - lokhu kungaba yimpikiswano ngamanzi.

Imiphumela ye ukuguquka kwesimo sezulu okuholela emncintiswaneni omkhulu ukuncipha kokuphakelwa kwamanzi angenasawoti emhlabeni wonke kwenza usongo lwezingxabano ezinkulu lube khona ngokuthusayo.

Kukhungathekiswe ukungabi bikho kwabezindaba mayelana nokuxhumana phakathi kwamanzi nokuthula, ithimba lezokucwaninga lamazwe omhlaba, iStrategic Foresight Group (SFG), lahlanganisa izintatheli nabaqambi bemibono abavela emhlabeni wonke emhlanganweni wokucobelelana ngolwazi owawuseKathmandu ngoSepthemba ukugqamisa lolu daba. Ababambe iqhaza abavela eYurophu, eMelika Ephakathi, eMiddle East, e-Afrika nase-Asia bebehambele i-International Media Workshop - Izinselelo Zomhlaba Nezamanzi. Isikhulumi ngasinye sethule amaqiniso, izibalo, nezibonelo ze ukuthi izifunda zabo zithinteke kanjani ngqo nezingozi ezazingaphambili.

UMongameli weStrategic Foresight Group (SFG), uSundeep Waslekar, uqinisekisa ukuthi noma imaphi amazwe amabili asebenzisana ngokubambisana kwamanzi awayi empini. Uthi yingakho iSFG ihlele umhlangano waseKathmandu ukuze yenze abezindaba bamazwe omhlaba bazi ngokuxhumana phakathi kwamanzi, ukuthula nokuphepha. “Ingozi enkulu esingayibona kule minyaka embalwa ezayo ukuthi uma amaphekula elawula eminye yemithombo yamanzi nengqalasizinda ethile yamanzi. Sibonile ukuthi eminyakeni emithathu eyedlule, i-ISIS yalilawula kanjani iDamu laseTabqa eSyria, futhi lokho kwaba ngamandla abo amakhulu okusinda kwe-ISIS; ngaphambi kwalokho amaTaliban ase-Afghan ayekwenzile lokhu. Sibona kungenzeka ukuthi kube khona impi e-Ukraine, futhi lapho, futhi, nokuthwebula izitshalo zokuhlanza amanzi kungumongo wayo. Ngakho-ke amanzi angumgogodla wobushokobezi nezingxabano ezintsha, ”kusho uWaslekar.

Isimo esiguqukayo semidiya

Umhlangano ububheke ukuthi ukusabalala kwezinkinga zemvelo kuthinteka kanjani ngokushintsha kwemithombo yezindaba namuhla. Ingcindezi yezimali yomhlaba iholele ezindlini eziningi zabezindaba ukuvala amadeski abo ezemvelo. Amagumbi ezindaba awasenazo izinsiza zokubhekela izindaba eziphathelene nezemvelo namanzi. Iningi lezindaba ezihlobene namanzi zivame ukugxila ezindabeni ezithokozisayo ezinjengama-tsunami nokuzamazama komhlaba kanye nokucekelwa phansi kwazo. Lokhu kudale isikhala sokubikwa kwemvelo okugcwaliswa kancane kancane yizintatheli ezizimele. Lezi zintatheli seziqalile ukwakha kabusha imodeli yebhizinisi ekubikeni izingqinamba zezemvelo futhi balwe nokukhathala okuza nokubika ngokuguquka kwesimo sezulu ngokugxila kakhulu ezihlokweni ezithile. Ukusebenza ngokuzimela, lezi zintatheli zikhululekile ukuvakashela izindawo nokuhlangana nabantu obekuzoba nzima ukukwenza uma bebika ngezinto eziningi ezijwayelekile.

Izinselelo ezibhekene nabasebenza ngokuzimela

Enye inkinga enkulu eyavela kule ngqungquthela kwaba ukuthi ukuze kuxoxiswane ngamanzi njengodaba oluzimele, iningi labasebenza ngokuzimela lazizwa liphoqelekile ukuthi liqale ngokugxila ezindabeni ezibanzi zemvelo ngaphambi kokungenela izindaba ezithinta amanzi. Ngokombono wabezindaba eminyakeni embalwa edlule, izinsongo nezinhlekelele ezihlobene namahlathi nezilwandle ezishisayo ngokwemvelo zanikezwa isikhala esithe xaxa uma kuqhathaniswa nezinkinga ezinganaki kangako njengokuncipha kwemithombo yamanzi angenasawoti njengemifula namachibi.

Ukuxhaswa ngemali kusalokhu kuyinselelo enkulu njengoba izindlu zabezindaba zinciphisa ukukhokhela uhambo lokuya phesheya. Kusetshenziswa izintambo ukubika izindaba zasendaweni ezivela emazweni asathuthuka nakho kungaba yinkinga. Izintatheli, izintambo, kanye nalabo ababasizayo njengabalungisi nabahumushi ababika ngamaphrojekthi ahlobene namanzi bangathola izimpilo zabo zisongelwa amaqembu anezintshisekelo ezinjengamaqembu ama-narco nabalingisi abangahulumeni. Izintambo nazo zingaba ngaphansi kwengcindezi yezepolitiki futhi izimpilo zazo zibeke engcupheni uma kuvezwa ubunikazi bazo. Ngenxa yalokhu, ama-freelancers angahle angakwazi ukuthembela ngokuphelele ezindabeni abazithola kuzintambo.

Emazweni amaningi, amanzi ayinkinga yobuzwe, futhi lokhu kungadala ubunzima obengeziwe bezintatheli ezizimele okungenzeka ukuthi azinayo inhlangano enkulu yabezindaba emboza imihlane yazo. Kwamanye amazwe asathuthuka, kunokungenelela okusebenzayo kukahulumeni ekubikeni ngezinkinga ezibucayi zamanzi; izintatheli ziyatshelwa ukuthi zibuze ini nokuthi zishiye ini ngaphandle. Kukhona nosongo lwamacala angafakwa kwizintatheli ezibika ngemvelo nangezindaba ezihlobene namanzi. Isibonelo, lapho intatheli ithatha izithombe zokungcola eMfuleni iLitani eningizimu yeLebanon, kwafakwa icala ngaye ngoba lezo zithombe kuthiwa "zazisongela" ezokuvakasha.

Njengoba izingosi zezindaba ziya ngokuya zisuselwa kuwebhu, ukuphawula kwe-vitriolic online ezinkundleni zokuxhumana kungezinye izinselelo ezibhekene nezintatheli. Ubuntatheli beCitizen buveza ubuhle nobubi bayo kubasebenza ngokuzimela kanye nabezindaba; Kungaba yinto ecasulayo kuma-freelancers ajwayelekile ahlangana nezintambo ukubika ngezinkinga ngenkathi, ngasikhathi sinye, kungaba ithuluzi eliwusizo lokusebenzisana nemithombo yendawo.

Ukuxoxa izindaba ngempumelelo

Abahlanganyeli bavumelane ngazwi linye ukuthi abezindaba bangaba ithuluzi elibalulekile loshintsho. Ukwanda kobuchwepheshe obusha nezingosi ze-multimedia kusizile ekwenzeni izindaba ezinomthelela onamandla. Njengoba amanzi eyinkinga yomhlaba wonke, kubaluleke kakhulu ukuxoxa izindaba eziphathelene nezinsiza zamanzi ngokucabanga kakhudlwana, futhi kwabizwa ukuthi kucatshangwe kabusha ngemodeli ejwayelekile yokuxoxa izindaba. Kube nokuhlonishwa ukuthi ukuhlanganiswa kokulalelwayo, ividiyo, umbhalo kanye nemidwebo yikho okwenza indaba ibanzi futhi icindezeleke. Ngokungenakugwenywa, ngokukhathazeka ngezindaba ezingezona ezomgunyathi, kwaphakanyiswa ukuthi indlela ephumelela kunazo zonke yokulwa nalokhu kungaba ngokusebenzisa ubuntatheli “obuzolandisa”. Ukuchaza ukuthi yini eyenza ubuntatheli “buphendule” noma bube nesibopho kungaba yinkundla yezimayini ephakamisa imibuzo ngokuthi ngubani onquma ukuthi yini enesibopho sokuphendula.

Kwakwamukelwa jikelele ukuthi impela amanzi azoqala ukubusa kwi-ajenda yezindaba, ikakhulukazi ikhwalithi yamanzi nokutholakala kwamanzi. Izintatheli ebezihambele umhlangano wokucobelelana ngolwazi zikhulume ngesidingo sokukhipha izinto ezingabantu ukuze zixoxe indaba ethokozisayo. Izindaba ezilandiswa ngezilimi zendawo kanye nezigodi ezihambisana nokuvakasha kwangempela kusayithi kushiya ukugxila okujulile ezingqondweni zabafundi. Kubalulekile futhi ukuthi intatheli ingabi yedwa uma kuziwa ekubikeni; lonke igumbi lezindaba kumele libandakanyeke kufaka phakathi abahleli, abadwebi bezithombe, nabanye. Kubalulekile futhi ukuthi izintatheli zibe nokuvundlulwa kwemibono nezindaba ezihlobene namanzi ngokuxhumana nezazi zezepolitiki, onjiniyela bamanzi, abenzi bezinqubomgomo, kanye nezazi.

Kwakunokuvumelana okujwayelekile kokuthi uma kubikwa ngamanzi, izithombe zingadlulisa okungaphezu kwamagama. Isibonelo esisodwa esicashuniwe kwakuyisithombe esethusayo nesishaqisayo somfana waseSyria oneminyaka emithathu umzimba wakhe wageza olwandle eTurkey. Lesi sithombe sivele kwabezindaba emhlabeni wonke sikhombisa ngokusobala ubungozi obubhekene nalabo abafuna impilo engcono. Kuphakanyiswe ukuthi indlela ephumelelayo yokusebenzisana kungaba ngokwakha ingosi eku-inthanethi ezokwenza ababambiqhaza bakwazi ukuthumela umsindo, ividiyo, namanye amathuluzi wemultimedia ukuxhasa nokugcina umsebenzi owenziwe yile workshop. Ukuthola izindlela eziqanjiwe zokubika ngamanzi kuzoba yinselelo enkulu ekusabalaliseni ukuqwashiswa ngezingozi ezilethwa ukuncipha kwezinto njalo.

Okuhlangenwe nakho okuvela ezifundeni ezahlukahlukene

Izinkinga zamanzi ziyehluka futhi kunokwehluka okubanzi ezifundeni ekufinyeleleni emanzini. Ukubika ngezindaba zamanzi nezemvelo nakho kungadala izingozi kwizintatheli. ENepal, ngokwesibonelo, uma izintatheli zibika ngemiphumela yezimayini nezinye izinto ezonakalisa imvelo, ngokushesha zibizwa ngokuthi “zilwa nentuthuko.” Kuphinde kwaxoxwa ngentshisekelo yeChina yokwakha amaphrojekthi engqalasizinda emazweni ahlukahlukene aseNingizimu-mpumalanga Asia kubandakanya amadamu ase-Indus, isiteshi samandla kagesi eBangladesh, kanye nechweba laseSri Lanka. Izindaba ezihlobene namanzi e-Afrika ziboshelwe ezindabeni zokuthathwa komhlaba nokuthathwa komhlaba. Isibonelo, imbangela yengxabano eTopiya ukuthi izinkampani zithola umhlaba oseduze neLake Tana futhi zisebenzise amanzi alo ukulima izimbali ezithunyelwa eYurophu nakwamanye amazwe. Lokhu kunciphisa imiphakathi yendawo ngesisetshenziswa esibalulekile. Amazwe aseLatin America kufanele abhekane nezinkinga zawo ezihlukile.

Enye inkinga ekhulayo ukuhamba kwabantu ngenxa yokushoda kwamanzi nokuwa kwemisebenzi yezimboni. IMexico City icwila ngamasentimitha ayi-15 minyaka yonke, futhi ukukhishwa kwabantu abahlala endaweni okuvela njalo kwabezindaba. Ukufuduka kuzokwanda ngokubaluleka emhubheni owomile weHonduras, iNicaragua, neGuatemala. Umsebenzi oyinhloko wezomnotho eMfuleni i-Amazon onqamula umngcele yimayini okuholela ekuvuzeni kwe-mercury namanye amakhemikhali anobuthi emanzini ase-Amazon. Abantu bomdabu abahlala eduze nalezi zindawo bahlupheka kakhulu. Iqiniso elibuhlungu ukuthi njengoba umoya namanzi kungenayo imingcele, le miphakathi ihlushwa ukungcola noma ingahlali ngqo ngaphakathi kwezindawo ezithintekile.

EMpumalanga Ephakathi, ukusetshenziswa kwezikhali kwamanzi ngabalingisi abahlomile abangahlangene nohulumeni kanye nesimo esiyinkimbinkimbi se-geopolitiki esifundeni kusebenza kuphela ukuqinisa indima yamanzi njengokwandisa ukungqubuzana. Ukuze kutholakale indawo eqinile esifundeni, i-ISIS yathatha izintambo zokulawula amadamu amaningana esifundeni njengeTabqa, Mosul, neHadida. ELebanon, iLitani River Authority yashicilela imephu ngoSepthemba 2019, ekhombisa inani labantu abaphethwe umdlavuza abahlala osebeni loMfula iLitani eBekaa Valley. Kwelinye idolobha, abantu abangaba ngu-600 batholakale benomdlavuza.

Umgodi we-Ewufrathe uyavela njengenkundla yempi phakathi kwamabutho aseSyria ayizimbangi, i-US, namasosha aseTurkey. Noma yisiphi isixazululo enkingeni yaseSyria kuzodingeka sicabangele okwenzekayo emgodini we-Ewufrathe. E-US, amanzi athathwa nje njengendaba yosizo. Ngakho-ke, ukuhlaselwa yi-ISIS, iBoko Haram, i-Al Shabaab, namanye amaqembu ezishoshovu ngengqalasizinda yamanzi kuthathwa njengezehlakalo ezizimele zamasosha ngaphandle kokubheka udaba olujulile lokuthi amanzi abaxhasa kanjani abalingisi abangahulumeni.

Amanzi nezixhumanisi zawo nezokuphepha

Esifundeni se-Arctic, izitolo eziningi zamaminerali ezitholwe ukuncibilika kweqhwa kuholele ekuxakekeni kwamazwe ahlukene ancintisana ngokufuna lezi zinsiza eziyigugu. I-Russia isivele iqinisekisa ubukhona bayo esifundeni ngokwakha amachweba nokuthola ama-ice breakers ayi-6 asebenzisa amandla enuzi. Uma kuqhathaniswa, i-United States inama-ice breakers ama-2 kuphela, okukhona kuwo eyodwa kuphela ekwazi ukudabula iqhwa elinzima ngokukhethekile. Izwe laseMelika nelaseRussia selivele seliqalile ukubhekana e-Arctic, kanti nokushuba kwesimo kulindeleke ukuthi kukhule njengoba ukuncibilika kweqhwa olwandle kuveza izinsizakusebenza eziningi futhi kuvule nemizila yolwandle.

Iqhaza lamanzi maqondana nezisekelo zamasosha nezikhungo zokuphepha kuzoba nzima kakhulu njengoba amazinga olwandle eqhubeka nokukhuphuka. Amazwe afana ne-United States azozizwa ephoqelekile ukuthi afuduke noma avale izisekelo zasogwini. Isibonelo salokhu yisizinda samasosha aseNorfolk Virginia, okuyisisekelo esikhulu semikhumbi yasolwandle e-US, okungadingeka ukuthi sivalwe eminyakeni engama-25 ezayo ngenxa yokwenyuka kwamazinga olwandle. Izwe laseMelika kubukeka sengathi alizange licabangisise ngemiphumela efinyelela kude yokunyuka kwamanzi olwandle futhi belilokhu lishintsha izinhlelo zamasu zesikhathi eside nezinhlelo zesikhashana ngokwakha amapayipi. Kubalulekile ukuthi wazi ukuthi umbuzo wokuvalwa kwezisekelo ezinjalo uzoncika nasemibonweni yezepolitiki. Isibonelo, e-US, uMongameli Trump ukhuphule isabelomali salezi zisekelo zamasosha. Amazwe amaningi anjengeFrance, iJapan, iChina, i-US, ne-Italy anezikhungo zawo zamasosha eDjibout zokulwa nobugebengu kanye nokuvikela izintshisekelo zasolwandle.

Ngo-2017, uMnyango Wezwe wase-US wakhipha umbiko owawubheka amanzi njengengxenye esemqoka yezokuphepha kwezwe. Umbiko ubhekise ezinhlangothini zezokuphepha ezihlobene namanzi ngamagama abanzi nangokwejwayelekile kepha awuzange unikeze isu eliphelele lokubhekana nazo. Lo mbiko ugxila kakhulu kowakhishwa ngo-2014 ngale ndaba efanayo, futhi lokhu akubhekiseli emanzini njengomthombo wezingxabano ongase ube khona, kunalokho kugxilwe ezibonelweni zamanzi njengezinkinga zosizo.

Kubuye kwaxoxwa ngezibonelo zokuthi amanzi asetshenziswa kanjani emisebenzini yezempi angasetshenziswa njengethuluzi lokuthula. Okokuqala, amanzi asetshenziswa njengethuluzi lokuhlangabezana nokusebenza kwempahla. EMali, amasosha aseFrance adinga amalitha ayi-150 amanzi ngosuku, ngesosha ngalinye. Izindlela eziyinkimbinkimbi nezindiza kuyadingeka ukuhambisa amanzi amaningi ngaphesheya kwehlane laseSahelian. Ibutho laseFrance futhi lakha imithombo eMali ukuze amanzi angasetshenziswa njengethuluzi lokuxoxisana ngabalingisi abangaphandle kombuso. Inselelo ngukuthi amanzi angasetshenziswa kanjani ukuphatha abantu abasemhlabeni ukuze kwenze abantu bakwazi ukuzimela futhi kubenze bangabi nethuba lokulawulwa ngabalingisi abangewona abombuso.

Okwesibili, imikhumbi-ngwenya iyingxenye ebalulekile yamasu empi, futhi kunethuba lokuthi amavukelambuso angasebenzisa ubungozi bemikhumbi-ngwenya ngokusongela ulwandle oluzungezile.

Okwesithathu, amanzi asetshenziswa njengesikhali amavukelambuso akhomba futhi acekele phansi imithombo yamanzi, alawule ukuhamba kwemifula, nemithombo enobuthi yokwesabisa abantu. Umbuzo ovelayo ezimweni ezinjalo ukuthi ungavimbela kanjani ukuthi amanzi asetshenziswe njengesikhali ezingxabanweni - kungenzeka yini ngezivumelwano zamanxusa noma ngezinqubomgomo zikahulumeni?

Okwesine, amanzi futhi abeka engcupheni amasosha namakhomanda asebenza enkundleni yempi. Isikole samasosha aseFrance sibambisene neWorld Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), eyaziwa nangokuthi yiWorld Wildlife Fund e-US naseCanada, ngenhloso yokuqinisekisa ukuthi izikhulu zinikezwa uqeqesho lokuthi zingaphendula kanjani ezinsongweni ezihlobene namanzi. Amanzi angcolile aletha ingozi enkulu. Umehluko phakathi kosongo nobungozi ukuthi usongo lwenziwa ngamabomu kanti ubungozi buyenzeka. Okokugcina, usongo lokuhlaselwa nge-cyber lukhona ngempela, ikakhulukazi ngemuva kokugqekezwa kwakamuva kwedathabheyisi ebinolwazi ngamadamu ase-US.

Umthelela Omuhle Wenhlangano Yomphakathi kanye nabezindaba

Kwabonakala ukuthi ukushintshana kwamazwe ahlukahlukene ezindabeni eziphathelene namanzi akudingeki kube nokuphikisana nokuthi izintatheli zingabamba iqhaza ekwehliseni izingxabano ezingase zibe khona. Ukusabalala kwabezindaba ngokubambisana emhlabathini kungakhuthaza amazwe ukuthi aqhubeke nokuqinisa ukubambisana ezingeni eliphakeme. Kwakukhona izibonelo eziningi ezinhle zokubambisana emazingeni aphansi phakathi kwemiphakathi eyeqa imingcele. Esimweni esiseNingizimu ye-Asia, kube nempikiswano ngokugcwala koMfula iPandai onqamula eChitwan National Park eNepal naseValmiki National Park eNdiya. Ama-panchayats amanzi emiphakathi ehlala ngaphesheya komfula ahlangana futhi akha imigwaqo ukuvimbela izikhukhula, futhi lezi sezisebenza ngaphansi kokulawulwa ohulumeni basekhaya.

Esinye isibonelo sokubambisana okukhiqizayo kwaba ukuxazulula ukungezwani phakathi kwe-Assam enyakatho-mpumalanga yeNdiya neBhutan. Noma nini lapho kwenzeka isikhukhula ebhange elisenyakatho leBrahmaputra e-Assam, icala lalibekwa eBhutan ngokushesha. Kwakungenxa yesinyathelo sabantu bendawo ukuthi imiyalezo yayidluliselwa kuWhatsapp noma nini lapho amanzi kufanele akhishwe ngenhla ngomfula nomphumela wokuthi akugcini ngokusindiswa kwemfuyo kuphela kodwa nabantu abahlala ezansi nomfula eNdiya nabo bakwazi ukuthuthela endaweni ephephile.

Izakhamizi ezinqamula umngcele woMfula iKarnali, odabula iNepal naseNdiya, ziqale uhlelo lokuxwayisa kusenesikhathi ngeWhatsApp ngenhloso yokunciphisa ukulahleka kwezitshalo zezolimo. Esinye isibonelo ngesomfula iKoshi osekunomlando omude wezikhukhula. Lapha amaqembu okuzisiza abesifazane ayahlangana ukuze anqume izindlela zokunqanda futhi adlulise imininingwane lapho izikhukhula seziseduze. Ngokwengeziwe, imiphakathi esemngceleni we-Indo-Bangladesh isebenze ngokubambisana kumaphrojekthi wokuphinda agcwalise imifula ngezinhlanzi zeHilsa, okuyingxenye yokudla kwabo kwendabuko. Yize lezi zindaba ezinhle zivezwe yimithombo yezindaba yasendaweni, lezi zivame ukungathathwa yizindlu ezinkulu zokushicilela kwazise azithathwa njengezinesithakazelo esikhulu. Imithombo yezindaba yasendaweni ibambe iqhaza elibalulekile ekwenzeni amaqembu ezinhlangano zomphakathi wendawo ukuthi akhuthaze ukuxhumana okuxazulula izinkinga phakathi kwabantu abahlala ezindaweni eziphezulu nezingezansi zemifula.

EMiddle East, abezindaba babambe iqhaza elibalulekile ekusekeleni iTigris Consensus - okuyisinyathelo sokubambisana nokwakha ukuzethemba eMfuleni iTigris phakathi kwe-Iraq neTurkey. Lokhu kuqale ngokushintshana phakathi kochwepheshe futhi ekugcineni kwabandakanya abaholi bezepolitiki nabamele uhulumeni. Leli bhizinisi beliholwa yiStrategic Foresight Group kanye neSwitzerland Agency for Development and Cooperation.

Izifundo ezivela eNepal

Kusukela ngo-2015, iNepal yamukele isakhiwo sikahulumeni futhi isivele ibhekene nezingxabano phakathi kwezifundazwe mayelana namanzi. Inselelo enkulu yeNepal ilele ekuqukethe ukungqubuzana kwayo kwangaphakathi okuhlobene namanzi. INepal futhi iphakathi kwamazwe okuqala ukwethula isiteshi somsakazo somphakathi esibika ngazo zonke izindaba zakuleli kubandakanya amanzi futhi sithandwa kakhulu. Ngenkathi izindaba zamanzi ezinqamula imingcele ziheha intshisekelo enkulu yabezindaba, umbuzo obaluleke kakhulu wokuthi kwenzekani ngamanzi ezingeni elincane uvame ukunganakwa ngokuqhathaniswa.

Iqiniso eliyisisekelo ukuthi izinsizakusebenza zemvelo, kufaka phakathi amanzi, akunamkhawulo. Ukuguquka kwesimo sezulu kukodwa akunakusolwa ngokuqedwa kwamanzi emhlabeni wonke; umuntu kumele futhi abhekele ingxenye edlalwe ukusetshenziswa budlabha kwezobuchwepheshe, ushintsho ezimeni zenhlalo, ukufuduka, nezinye izinto eziholele ekwakhiweni kwezinqubomgomo ezingafanele noma ezingalungile ngokusobala ukubhekana nenkinga yamanje yezemvelo. I-Strategic Foresight Group igcizelela ukuthi sisesikhathini lapho ubuntatheli bungabamba iqhaza elibalulekile ekubandakanyeni ababambiqhaza nokusiza ukuvimbela amazwe ukuthi alwe namanzi.

Umuntu akasakwazi ukuthatha amanzi kalula, futhi uma umhlaba ungahlali phansi unake, kungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi esikhathini esizayo esingekude kakhulu, amazwe azithole elwa njengoba ukuncintisana kwalomthombo oyigugu kuya ngokuya kuba kukhulu okukhulu futhi okuphelelwe yithemba. Abezindaba bangabamba iqhaza elibalulekile ekwaziseni umhlaba ngezinga lenkinga esibhekene nayo mayelana namanzi.
