IHABER SPRINGS, Mich. - Konke kwaqala ngo-1990, xa idolophu ekumntla-ntshona wencam ye-Lower Peninsula yayineendawo ezimbini zokuphinda zisetyenziswe ezixhaswa yiminyaka emibini yerhafu encinci.
Namhlanje, inkqubo ye-high-tech ye-Emmett County yokuphinda isetyenziswe ikhule ibe yi-multi-million dollar generator yengeniso kuluntu olungaphezu kwama-33,000 abahlali, bathengisa amawaka eetoni zezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kwiinkampani zaseMichigan kunye nommandla we-Great Lakes ukwenza iimveliso ezintsha.
Iingcali zithi inkqubo yaseNyakatho ye-30-ubudala ingasebenza njengomzekelo kwiibhili ezisibhozo i-legislature karhulumente ilindele oko kunokunceda i-Michigan County ukwakha iindlela zokuphinda zisetyenziswe, ukunciphisa i-landfills kunye nokwenza inzuzo kwi-loop ekhulayo Phambili uqoqosho lwezinto eziphilayo ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kunye ne-compostable.
"Baye babonisa ukuba utyalo-mali lukawonkewonke kulolu hlobo lweziseko zophuhliso luhlawula - kwinkonzo yoluntu enexabiso, kwaye i-90 ekhulwini yempahla abayiqokelelayo ngenkqubo yabo yokubuyisela kwakhona ithengiswa ngokwenene kwiinkampani zaseMichigan," kusho uKerrin O'Brien, umlawuli olawulayo we-nonprofit Michigan Recycling Alliance.
Kwiziko le-Harbour Springs, ingalo ye-robotic ngokukhawuleza ityhutyha ibhande lokuhambisa elihambayo, isusa iiplastiki eziphezulu, iglasi kunye ne-aluminium kwimibhobho yokukhetha. omnye umgca wezinto ezikwelinye igumbi kulapho abasebenzi bathatha ngesandla iphepha, iibhokisi ezisuka kwibhanti lokuhambisa elihambayo kunye nendawo yebhegi.
Le nkqubo sisiphelo seminyaka yotyalo-mali kwinkqubo ekhonza ummandla weedolophu ezininzi, apho amagosa athi yakhe inkcubeko yasekhaya yokuphinda isetyenziswe ezindlini, kumashishini nakwiindawo zoluntu.
Izinga lokuphinda lisetyenziswe kwiphondo laseMichigan lisilela emva kuninzi lwelizwe ngepesenti ze-19, kwaye ukwanda kwentatho-nxaxheba kuya kunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni ngokubanzi kwaye kusondele kwiinjongo ezintsha zemozulu.
E-Michigan, imithetho malunga nento enokurisayikilishwa ikukudityaniswa nokuba uluntu okanye amashishini abucala aseka iinkqubo kwaye zeziphi izixhobo ezikhetha ukuzamkela.Ezinye iindawo zisebenzisa iiplastiki ezithile kuphela, ezinye iikhadibhodi ezimdaka, kwaye ezinye iindawo zoluntu aziboneleli kwaphela.
Umahluko phakathi kwemigudu yokubuyisela kwakhona kwi-Emmett County nakwezinye iindawo zaseMichigan kubomi obude kunye notyalo-mali kwiziseko ezingundoqo kunye nobudlelwane bexesha elide kunye namashishini aphinda asebenzise izinto.
“Abantu ababebaleka iNqila yase-Emmett ngelo xesha babejonge phambili kakhulu ekuzameni ukukhuthaza ukurisayikilisha,” utshilo uAndy Torzdorf, umlawuli wenkqubo.
Iziko le-Harbour Springs sisikhululo sothutho lwenkunkuma, apho inkunkuma ithunyelwa kwindawo yokulahla inkunkuma enemvumelwano, kunye neziko lokurisayikilisha lemijelo emibini.
"Abahlali banokurisayikilisha simahla. Inkunkuma ayikho, ngoko ke ngokwendalo kukho inkuthazo yokurisayikilisheka kwakhona. Loo nto iyodwa inika abahlali isizathu sokurisayikilisheka - ukuthenga ukurisayikilishwa," utshilo uTorzdorf.
Ubalo lubonisa ukuba ngo-2020, eli ziko lalungisa iitoni ezingama-13,378 zezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe, ezapakishwa kwaye zalayishwa kwiilori, emva koko zathunyelwa kwaye zathengiswa kuluhlu lwamashishini ukuze asebenzise izinto.
Uninzi lweenkampani ezithenga izinto ezihlaziyiweyo zase-Emmet County zikwiMichigan okanye kwezinye iindawo zommandla weGreat Lakes.
Ialuminiyam iya kwiziko lenkonzo ye-scrap likaGaylord; iiplastiki zeNombolo ye-1 neye-2 zithunyelwa kwinkampani yaseDundee ukuze yenze iipeliti zeplastiki, ezithi kamva zijikwe zibe sisicoci kunye neebhotile zamanzi; ikhadibhodi kunye nebhodibhodi zithunyelwa kwinkampani kwi-Upper Peninsula Kraft mills kunye nomenzi wokupakisha ukutya eKalamazoo, phakathi kwabanye; iibhokisi kunye neekomityi ezithunyelwe kumenzi wethishu e-Cheboygan; ioli yemoto iphinde yacocwa eSaginaw; iglasi ethunyelwe kwinkampani yaseChicago ukwenza iibhotile, i-insulation kunye ne-abrasives; i-elektroniki ithunyelwe kumaziko okudilizwa eWisconsin; kunye neendawo ezininzi zezinye izinto.
Abaququzeleli beprojekthi bade bakwazi ukufumana indawo eVirginia apho babenokuthenga iloli yeengxowa zeplastiki kunye neepakethi zefilimu-izinto ezibonakala zinzima kakhulu ukuzilawula ngenxa yokuba zinokudityaniswa kwi-sorters.Iingxowa zeplastiki zenziwe ngamaplanga adibeneyo ukuze ahombise.
Baqinisekisa ukuba yonke into i-Emmet County Recycling iyayamkela "iyaphinda isetyenziswe kwaye iphinde isetyenziswe," utshilo u-Tolzdorf.Abamkeli nantoni na engenamakethi eqinile, awathi ithetha ukuba akukho Styrofoam.
"Izinto eziphinda zisetyenziswe zisekwe kwimarike yempahla, ngoko ke iminyaka ethile iphezulu kwaye eminye iminyaka iphantsi. Ngo-2020 senze malunga ne-500,000 yeedola ngokuthengisa izinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kwaye ngo-2021 senze ngaphezulu kwe-100 yezigidi zeedola," utshilo u-Tolzdorf.
"Kubonisa ukuba imakethi ngokuqinisekileyo iza kwahluka. Baye behla kakhulu ngo-2020; baphinde babuyela kwiminyaka emihlanu ephezulu ngo-2021. Ke asinakuseka yonke imali yethu ekuthengisweni kwezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe, kodwa xa zilungile, zilungile kwaye ziyasithwala, kwaye xa ngamanye amaxesha zingekho, isikhululo sohambo siza kusithwala."
Isikhululo sokudluliselwa kwedolophu siphethe phantse i-125,000 yee-cubic yeemitha zenkunkuma yasekhaya ngo-2020, senza phantse i-2.8 yezigidi zeedola kwingeniso.
Ukongezwa kwezihluzi zerobhothi ngo-2020 kunyuse ukusebenza ngokufanelekileyo ngeepesenti ezingama-60 kwaye kwandisa ukubanjwa kwezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe nge-11 lepesenti, utshilo uTolzdorf.
Iminyaka yemizamo ye-bipartisan yolawulo lwangaphambili kunye nolwangoku lokuhlaziya imithetho yenkunkuma eqinileyo yaseMichigan ifikelele kwiphakeji yowiso-mthetho ejolise ekwandiseni ukurisayikilishwa, ukwenza umgquba kunye nokuphinda kusetyenziswe izinto.
Iingxelo ezininzi eziveliswe ngurhulumente zihlola lo mba kwaye ziqikelela ukuba iMichiganders ngokudibeneyo uhlawula ngaphezulu kwe-1 yebhiliyoni yeedola ngonyaka ukulawula inkunkuma yabo.
Inxalenye yomthetho osalindelweyo iza kufuna ukuba iingingqi zihlaziye iinkqubo zazo zenkunkuma ezomeleleyo ezikhoyo kwiinkqubo zolawulo lwemathiriyeli yanamhlanje, ukuseta imilinganiselo yokurisayikilishwa, kunye nokukhuthaza intsebenziswano yengingqi ukuseka amaziko okuphinda asetyenziswe kunye nawokwenza umgquba kwisiza.
I-Marquette kunye ne-Emmett counties ziyimizekelo emihle yeenzame zengingqi zokubonelela ngeenkonzo, utshilo uLiz Browne, umlawuli weCandelo loLawulo lweMathiriyeli kwiSebe lezeNdalo eMichigan, i-Great Lakes kunye ne-Energy.Olunye uluntu lwaseMichigan lunokuphuhlisa ngokufanayo iinkqubo zokuvuselela kunye ne-composting ezixhamla uqoqosho kunye nokusingqongileyo, wathi.
"Ukubuyisela into ethile kwinkonzo ayinayo impembelelo kunokuba uqale ngezinto ezinyulu. Ukuba siphumelele ekuveliseni izinto eziphathekayo eMichigan kunye nemarike eMichigan, siya kunciphisa kakhulu impembelelo yethu ekuthumeleni," kusho uBrown.
Bobabini u-Browne kunye no-O'Brien bathi ezinye iinkampani zaseMichigan azikwazanga ukufumana i-feedstock ehlaziyiweyo eyaneleyo ngaphakathi kwemida karhulumente.Kufuneka bathenge ezi mathiriyeli kwamanye amazwe okanye naseKhanada.
UKarl Hatopp, umphathi we-supply chain kwi-TABB Packaging Solutions e-Dundee, uthe ukubamba izinto eziphinda zisetyenziswe kwakhona kwi-laste stream yaseMichigan ngokuqinisekileyo kuya kunceda amashishini axhomekeke ekuthengeni izinto ezithengiswayo emva kwemveliso yazo.I-Emmett County, eye yathengisa i-1 kunye ne-2 iiplastiki ze-20 iminyaka, iphinde yaqala ukuthenga izinto ezithengiswayo kwi-Arbor heirs kunye ne-Arbor hee.
UHartop uthe iiplastiki ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe ziqhekezwe zibe yiresin yasemva kwabathengi, okanye “ipellet,” ethi emva koko ithengiselwe abavelisi baseWestland nakwabanye eOhio nase-Illinois, apho zenziwa iitoti zokuhlamba iimpahla kunye neebhotile zamanzi ze-Absopure.
“Okukhona sithengisa izinto ezininzi (ngaphakathi) eMichigan, kokukhona siphucuka,” watsho.” Ukuba sinokuthenga okungakumbi eMichigan, sinokuthenga okungaphantsi kwiindawo ezifana neKhalifoniya okanye iTexas okanye iWinnipeg.”
Inkampani isebenzisana namanye amashishini aseDundee akhule aphuma kwishishini lokuphinda asetyenziswe.Enye yinkampani ye-cleantech, apho uHartop athi usebenze amashumi eminyaka.
“I-Clean Tech yaqala ngabasebenzi abane kwaye ngoku sinabasebenzi abangaphezu kwe-150. Ngoko ngokwenene, libali lempumelelo,” watsho.” Okukhona siphinda sisebenzise izinto ngokutsha, kokukhona sidala imisebenzi engakumbi eMichigan, kwaye loo misebenzi ihlala eMichigan.
Enye yeenjongo ze-MI Healthy Climate Plan esanda kugqitywa kukunyusa izinga lokuphinda lisetyenziswe ubuncinane kwipesenti ze-45 nge-2030 kunye nokunciphisa inkunkuma yokutya phakathi.
Inqaku kubafundi: Ukuba uthenga into ngenye yeekhonkco zethu ezidibeneyo, sinokufumana ikhomishini.
