Icala elibhekene neBMW kanye noDaimler laqhutshelwa phambili yiDeutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH), inhlangano engekho ngaphansi kukahulumeni, ngokwenqaba “ukuqinisa” izinhloso zabo zokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-carbon dioxide (CO2).
IGreenpeace (ophikweni lwaseJalimane), ngokubambisana nesishoshovu sangoLwesihlanu for Future uClara Mayer, babheka icala elifanayo elibhekene neVolkswagen. Kodwa-ke, inikeze iqembu laseJalimane umnqamulajuqu wokuphendula kuze kube ngu-Okthoba 29 olandelayo, ngaphambi kokunquma ukuthi lizoqhubeka yini ngokusemthethweni nenqubo.
Lezi zinqubo zivela ngemuva kwezinqumo ezimbili ezathathwa ngoMeyi odlule. Elokuqala livela eNkantolo Yomthethosisekelo yaseJalimane, eyamemezela ukuthi imithetho yezwe yezemvelo ayanele ukuvikela izizukulwane ezizayo.
Ngalo mqondo, ikhiphe isabelomali sokukhishwa kwekhabhoni emikhakheni emikhulu yezomnotho, yenyusa iphesenti lokuncishiswa kwekhabhoni kwaze kwaba ngu-2030, isuka ku-55% yaya ku-65% maqondana namagugu ka-1990, futhi yathi iJalimane njengezwe kumele ingathathi hlangothi kukhabhoni. ngo-2045.
Isinqumo sesibili saphuma ezweni elingumakhelwane, iNetherlands, lapho izinhlangano zezemvelo zawina khona icala elibhekene nenkampani kawoyela iShell ngokungenzi okwanele ukudambisa umthelela womsebenzi wayo esimweni sezulu. Ngokokuqala ngqa, inkampani ezimele yayalelwa ngokomthetho ukuba yehlise ukukhishwa kwayo.
Ifunani i-DUH?
I-DUH ifuna bobabili abakwaBMW kanye noDaimler bazibophezele ngokusemthethweni ekuqedeni ukukhiqizwa kwezimoto ezisebenzisa amafutha enziwe ngezinto ezimbiwa phansi ngo-2030 kanye nokuthi ukungcola okuvela emisebenzini yabo kungeqi isilinganiso sabo esinqunyiwe ngaphambi kwalowo mnqamulajuqu.
Lesi sabelo esikweletwayo siwumphumela wokubala okuyinkimbinkimbi. Izama ukwenza lula, i-DUH ifike enanini lenkampani ngayinye, esekelwe kumanani athuthukiswe yi-Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC), mayelana nokuthi ingakanani i-CO2 esisengakwazi ukuyikhipha emhlabeni wonke ngaphandle kokufudumala koMhlaba ngaphezu kuka-1.7 ºC, kanye nokukhishwa kwenkampani ngayinye ngo-2019.
Ngokwalezi zibalo, ngisho kucatshangelwa izimemezelo zeBMW kanye noDaimler mayelana nokwehliswa kokungcola, akwanele ukuhlala ngaphakathi kwemingcele “yamanani ekhabhoni yesabelomali”, okungase kusho ukuthi eminye yemikhawulo yendlela yokuphila yamanje. izizukulwane zinganwetshwa futhi zibe zimbi kakhulu ezizukulwaneni ezizayo.
Siyakukhumbuza ukuthi uDaimler usememezele ukuthi uhlose ukukhiqiza izimoto zikagesi kuphela kusukela ngo-2030 nokuthi, kusukela ngo-2025, izoba nenye indlela kagesi kuwo wonke amamodeli ayo. I-BMW iphinde yaveza ukuthi ngo-2030 ifuna u-50% wezinto ezidayisiwe emhlabeni wonke kube izimoto zikagesi, kuyilapho inciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-CO2 ngo-40%. Ekugcineni, iVolkswagen ithi izoyeka ukukhiqiza izimoto ezisebenzisa amafutha emvelo ngo-2035.
Ephendula leli cala, uDaimler uthe akaboni kulunga ngaleli cala: “Kade sasho isitatimende esicacile mayelana nendlela yethu yokungathathi hlangothi kwesimo sezulu. Umgomo wethu uwukuba sibe ngogesi ngokugcwele ekupheleni kweminyaka eyishumi - noma nini lapho izimo zemakethe zisivumela.”
I-BMW iphendule ngendlela efanayo, yathi izinhloso zayo zesimo sezulu ziphakathi kwezihamba phambili embonini, futhi izinhloso zayo zihambisana nesifiso sayo sokugcina ukushisa komhlaba kungaphansi kuka-1.5°C.
KwaVolkswagen bagcine bethi bazolicubungula leli cala, kodwa "akuboni ukushushiswa kwezinkampani ngazinye njengendlela eyanele yokuhlangabezana nezinselelo zomphakathi."
Futhi manje?
Leli cala lase-DUH elibhekene neBMW kanye noDaimler kanye necala leGreenpeace elingase libekwe iVolkswagen libalulekile njengoba lingase libe isibonelo esibalulekile, futhi libophezela izinkampani ukuthi zifakazele enkantolo ukuthi izinhloso zazo zokunciphisa ukungcola ziqinile njengoba zinjalo.
Uma i-DUH iwina, leli kanye namanye amaqembu angaqhubekela phambili ngezinqubo ezifanayo zezinkampani ezisezindaweni ezingaphandle kwezimoto, njengezinkampani zezindiza noma abakhiqizi bamandla.
Leli cala selisezandleni zenkantolo yesifunda yaseJalimane, okuyiyona ezonquma ukuthi kukhona yini okumele kuqhutshekwe nalolu hlelo noma cha. Uma isinqumo sivuma, bobabili abakwaBMW noDaimler kuzomele baziphendulele ngokwethula ubufakazi obuphikisana nala macala bese kulandela inkulumompikiswano ebhalwe phansi phakathi kwezinhlangothi zombili.
Isinqumo sokugcina singase kusasele iminyaka emibili, kodwa uma sithatha isikhathi eside, iba nkulu ingozi ku-BMW neDaimler uma behlulwa. Ngoba sincane isikhathi esisele sokuhambisana nalokho okudingwa yinkantolo kuze kufike u-2030.
