Namhlanje, inkqubo ye-Emmett County yobugcisa obuphezulu bokurisayikilisha iye yakhula yaba yingeniso yezigidi zeedola kubahlali abangaphezu kwama-33,000 kuluntu, ithengisa amawaka eetoni zezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kwiinkampani zaseMichigan nakwingingqi yeGreat Lakes ukwenza iimveliso ezintsha. indlela yokuhlaziya iingxowa zokuthenga zeplastiki.
Iingcali zithi inkqubo yaseNyakatho ye-30-ubudala ingasebenza njengomzekelo kwiibhili ezisibhozo ipalamente yelizwe ilindele oko kunokunceda i-Michigan County ukwakha iindlela zokuphinda zisetyenziswe, ukunciphisa i-landfills kunye nokwenza inzuzo kwi-loop ekhulayo Phakamisa uqoqosho lokuphinda lusetyenziswe kwaye i-compostable organics.
"Baye babonisa ukuba utyalo-mali lukawonke-wonke kolu hlobo lweziseko ezingundoqo luhlawula - kwinkonzo yoluntu enexabiso, kwaye i-90 yepesenti yezinto abaziqokelelayo ngenkqubo yabo yokubuyisela kwakhona ithengiswa kwiinkampani zaseMichigan," kusho uKerrin O'Brien, umphathi. umlawuli we-Michigan Recycling Alliance engenzi nzuzo.
Kwiziko le-Harbour Springs, ingalo yerobhothi inqumla ngokukhawuleza ibhanti lokuhambisa elihambayo, isusa iiplastiki eziphezulu, iglasi kunye ne-aluminium kwimibhobho yokuhlela. mzuzu;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 le-Michigan lokuphinda lisetyenziswe kwilizwe lonke lisemva kuninzi lwelizwe ngeepesenti ezili-19, kwaye ukwanda kwentatho-nxaxheba kuya kunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni ngokubanzi kwaye kusondele kwiinjongo ezintsha zemozulu. kunye negalelo kubushushu behlabathi kunye nokutshintsha kwemozulu.
E-Michigan, imithetho emalunga noko kuphinda isetyenziswe yinkqubo yokuseta uluntu okanye amashishini abucala aseke iinkqubo kunye nokuba zeziphi izixhobo ezikhetha ukuzamkela. kukonke.
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 i-Emmett County ngelo xesha babejonge phambili kakhulu ekuzameni ukukhuthaza ukurisayikilisha,” utshilo uAndy Torzdorf, umlawuli wenkqubo. ingqondo.”
Iziko le-Harbour Springs sisikhululo sothutho lwenkunkuma, apho inkunkuma ithunyelwa kwindawo yokulahla inkunkuma enekhontrakthi, kunye neziko lokurisayikilisha elinemisinga emibini. umrhumo.
“Abahlali banokuphinda basetyenziswe simahla.Inkunkuma ayikho, ngoko ke ngokwendalo kukho inkuthazo yokurisayikilisha.Ke loo nto ngokwayo inika abahlali isizathu sokuphinda basebenzise-ukuthenga izinto ezisetyenzisiweyo, ”utshilo uTorzdorf.
Ubalo lubonisa ukuba ngo-2020, eli ziko lalungisa iitoni ezingama-13,378 zezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe, ezapakishwa kwaye zalayishwa kwiilori ezimfutshane, emva koko zathunyelwa kwaye zathengiswa kuluhlu lwamashishini ukuze asebenzise izinto. , iibhotile zamanzi, iibhokisi zecereal, kunye nephepha langasese, phakathi kwezinye iimveliso ezintsha.
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 yorhwebo, ngoko ke eminye iminyaka iphezulu kwaye eminye iminyaka iphantsi.Ngo-2020 senze malunga needola ezingama-500,000 sathengisa izinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kwaye ngo-2021 senze ngaphezulu kwe-100 lezigidi zeedola,” utshilo uTolzdorf.
“Kubonisa ukuba imarike ngokuqinisekileyo iza kwahluka.Bawa phantsi kakhulu ngo-2020;baphinde babuyela kubude beminyaka emihlanu ngo-2021. Ke asinakuseka zonke iimali zethu ekuthengisweni kwezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe, kodwa xa zilungile, zilungile kwaye ziyasithwala, kwaye xa ngamanye amaxesha hayi, isikhululo sohambo kuza kufuneka sisithwale kwaye siphathe neemali zethu. ”
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 yeenzame ze-bipartisan ngolawulo lwangaphambili kunye nolwangoku lokuphinda kuhlaziywe imithetho yenkunkuma eqinileyo yaseMichigan ifikelele incopho yayo kwimiqulu yowiso-mthetho ejolise ekwandiseni ukuphinda kusetyenziswe, ukwenza umgquba kunye nokuphinda kusetyenziswe izinto. iingxoxo okanye iingxoxo.
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 laseMichigan, i-Great Lakes kunye ne-Energy.Olunye uluntu lwaseMichigan lunokuphuhlisa ngokufanayo iinkqubo zokuvuselela kunye ne-composting. kuxhamle uqoqosho kunye nokusingqongileyo, utshilo.
