Ukutshintsha umhlaba

Izihloko ezithi "Ukutyalwa kweplanethi eluhlaza" ziye zabamba amajelo eendaba ngamagqabantshintshi anomdla abandakanya imigangatho yokulinganisa ebhidekileyo esetyenziswa ngu/kwiindawo ekusingwa kuzo, amabali afumaneka lula, ukukhuthazwa kokugqwesa kunye neenkokeli ezintsha, okanye amabali amatsha kunye namatsha kuzinzo.

Unyaka wama-2007 ibingunyaka webhanile kukhenketho oluzinzileyo. Kwazisa umlilo wangaphakathi ovuthayo ngokukhawuleza kumajelo eendaba kwaye kamva wafikelela kwi-crescendo kunye namabali amaninzi abhaliweyo malunga nokugcinwa kwendalo kwi-2008. Kunyaka odlulileyo, umshicileli wabona iintlobo zezicelo eziluhlaza kunye neendlela ezifanelekileyo. I-Media nayo yabona ukugqabhuka kwamabali aluhlaza kunye nokugxilwa okunzulu kwiGreenland: i-ice caps enyibilikayo, imiphumo ye-polar magnification kunye notshintsho lwepolar oluphawulwe ukuba luchaphazele iplanethi yonke njengoko kubonwa ngotshintsho olukhulu kubushushu be-1.4 degrees emhlabeni jikelele kunye ne-4.5 degrees ngokusondeleyo kwiipali.

“Ngoko ufuna ukuva utshintsho lwemozulu? Yiya eGreenland. Ngenxa yento eyenzeka eGreenland, indawo eyayifudula ikhuthaza ukuzingela izinja kunye nokuzingela itywina ngoku ikhuthaza iipakethi zokuloba kunye ne-kayaking yolwandle. Uhambo lokuhamba eGreenland lutshintshe kakhulu. Ngelixa kukho imisebenzi embalwa esekwe emkhenkceni, kukho ukukhwela inqanawa elwandle kuba ngoku kukho umkhenkce othe kratya, utshilo uPaul Bennett, umbhali weNational Geographic Adventure kunye nomseki weContext Travel, umququzeleli weesemina zokuhamba zabahambi kwizixeko ezisibhozo kwihlabathi liphela. kwi-ASTA's TheTradeShow ebibanjwe kutshanje eOrlando, eFlorida.

Ukhenketho luye lwakhula ngepesenti ye-9.5 ngonyaka kwihlabathi jikelele kwaye ukhenketho oluzinzileyo luye lwakhula ngesantya esisondele kwi-25 ekhulwini kunye nesibini kwisithathu kubo bonke abahambi baseMelika bathi balindele ukuba iihotele zenze okungakumbi ukukhusela okusingqongileyo kunye neenkcubeko zendawo. Ngenxa yoko, zonke iinkampani zokhenketho zizibiza ngokuba ziluhlaza ngeenzame zokubhenela kubahambi be-eco-conscious.

Imidiya yokuhamba igxile kwimiba yekhabhoni. Ufakelo lobugosa kunye nokhenketho luba yingqwalasela njengoko ishishini lezokhenketho likhula; ubugosa kwiiprojekthi ezininzi ziye zaba yinkxalabo enkulu kwishishini lokuhamba eliluhlaza kunye neendaba eziluhlaza. Iimpembelelo kwiinkcubeko zengingqi/ukwandiswa kweenkcubeko kunye nendlela abanini-zabelo kukhenketho lwengingqi abanokuthi bathathe inxaxheba ngayo ukuqinisekisa ukuba ukhenketho luyabuyisela kwaye ludala iziseko zenkcubeko noluntu lwasekuhlaleni.

Kubugosa, uninzi lophuhliso lwezokhenketho kwihlabathi liphela lubekwe kwiindawo ezicocekileyo. "Khangela ukhenketho olunyamekela iinkuni, okanye iiprojekthi zokucoca (ezifana ne-Everest Expeditions eyasusa iibhotile zenkunkuma okanye iprojekthi yokucoca njengeThames 21), iiprojekthi zolondolozo (ezifana neLapa Rios eCosta Rica okanye iKapawi ) okanye iinkqubo zokubuyisela umva (ezifana neLindblad okanye i-Intrepid), utshilo umseki weContext Travel.

Ekulandeleni impembelelo yentlalo-qoqosho, umshicileli uya kujonga ifuthe elipheleleyo leenzame zokhenketho ezizinzileyo, kubandakanywa nendlela ecingisiswe kakuhle yaza yachazwa kakuhle kubanini-zabelo basekhaya, intsebenziswano kunye nokwabelana ngenzuzo (Kapawi), ukuphepha ukuxhaphazwa (Masai), kunye nezihlwele. Ewe izihlwele.

Kuncinci okubhaliweyo ngayo, kodwa izihlwele ezigqithisileyo zingena kwizikhumbuzo/iimyuziyam zaseYurophu umz. iMona Lisa, iitempile namangcwaba aseYiputa, i-mausoleum umz. iTaj Mahal njl.njl. eneneni ikhawulezisa ukuwohloka kweendawo zabakhenkethi. “Asithethi ngokungahambi kodwa kulawulo olusebenzayo lokundwendwela abantu kunye nokuhamba kwezithuthi,” utshilo uBennett.

UBennett ubonakalisa ukudana kwishishini lokhenketho lokuhamba ngenqanawa esithi lungcoliseka ngendlela emangalisayo. "Ukhenketho lweenqanawa zokuhamba ngenqanawa eVenice lonakalisa kakhulu indalo eVenice kuba ingaya phi inkunkuma? IVenice ayikwazi ukufunxa inkunkuma. Yiyo loo nto umntu waseVenetian enomda wengxowa yenkunkuma ngosuku,” utshilo.

Uhambo oluhlaza lujoliso olulula "lokuhlamba uhlaza," yiloo nto u-Bennett ayibiza ngokuzama ukusebenzisa iziqinisekiso eziluhlaza, njengokuthenga iikhredithi zekhabhoni, kunye nokuthetha ubuvuvu obuninzi okanye ubuxoki ukukhuthaza ukhenketho olunempembelelo ephezulu, i-extractive njengento ezinzileyo kunye nendawo yokuya kuyo. . Iinkampani ezininzi zizenza ngathi ziluhlaza xa zingekho luhlaza ngokwenene. Baluhlaza.

Iiarhente zokuhamba ezijolise kuhlaza kunye noshicilelo lokuhamba kufuneka ngokwenene zijonge la mashishini okhenketho kuluhlu olude lokuhlamba impahla lwamabango angenasihlahla abandakanya ukuhlanjwa kwetawuli ehotele, ukuthenga iikhredithi zekhabhoni ngaphandle kokunciphisa unyawo lomntu, "iziseko zesiporho" phaya ngaphandle abangasebenzeli nyani. I-carbon offset yakhe nabani na, i-PR ekhohlisayo kunye nokungabikho elubala. Ngesi sizathu, kusoloko kububulumko ukubonisana nee-arhente zokubeka iliso, iitanki zokucinga kunye neenkampani zezatifikethi eziphuhlise imilinganiselo kunye neenkqubo zokuqinisekisa iziqinisekiso zamashishini okhenketho oluhlaza. Ezona zithembeke ngakumbi ziquka i-International Ecotourism Society (ehloniphekileyo), iSustainable Travel International (esebenzayo), iGreen Globe (eyaziwayo) kunye neenkqubo zamabhaso ezifana neConde Nast's, utshilo uBennett.

Umshicileli ujonge ii-angles ezintsha ezitshisayo ezibandakanya ukuphumelela kwezobuchwepheshe ezifana ne-carbon-frontiers trips (ixesha elide kwi-fuel fuels), ukusebenzisa imimiselo yokhenketho ezinzileyo kwiindawo ezintsha, ukuhamba ngaphaya kwezibonelelo kunye nokuzithandela ukudala ubudlelwane obuqhubekayo phakathi kwabahambi kunye neendawo, uphando. ubuntatheli busondela kwimpembelelo yokwenyani yeendawo ekuchithelwa kuzo iiholide kunye neehotele ezinkulu, kunye nokutyhilwa kohambo olutofotofo kunye nefuthe lako.

“Amajelo eendaba ahlala ejonge ibali elikhulu. Ikhabhoni yindlovu eluhlaza. I-Carbon yi-SUV yoshishino lokuhamba kunye namajelo ahlala efuna isisombululo kunye namabali amakhulu afana ne-Virgin Atlantic's bio-fuel test flight entwasahlobo ka-2008 phezu kwe-Atlantiki. Umzobo wekhabhoni yomntu owela iAtlantiki mkhulu kakhulu kunohambo lwemihla ngemihla lokuya nokubuya emsebenzini. Inqwelomoya enqumla iAtlantiki inegalelo kwiitoni zekhabhoni ezili-150, ngokufanayo nokuqhuba iimayile ezingama-500,000; ukhenketho lukhula ngokukhawuleza. Ke jonga into oyithethayo okanye oyenzayo,” utshilo uBennett.
