kakhulu I-Arhente yeNdalo yaseYurophu Ungcoliseko lomoya oluvela kwi-particle, i-nitrogen dioxide kunye ne-ozone ibangela ukufa kwe-6.100 ngaphambi kwexesha ngonyaka e-Austria, oko kukuthi i-69 yokufa kubemi abayi-100.000. Kwamanye amazwe alishumi elinanye e-EU, inani labantu ababhubhileyo ngokunxulumene nabemi lisezantsi kune-Austria, utshilo. I-Verkehrsclub Österreich VCÖ ingqalelo
Ngokutsho kwe-WHO, ixabiso lomda wonyaka we-NO2 kufuneka libe yi-10 micrograms nge-cubic meter yomoya, e-Austria iphindwe kathathu kwi-30 micrograms. Umlinganiselo wonyaka we-PM10 yi-40 micrograms kwi-cubic meter yomoya, ngaphezu kokuphindwe kabini kwi-WHO ecebisa iimicrogram ezili-15 kunye nomlinganiselo wonyaka we-PM2,5 ngama-25 eemicrogram kwi-cubic meter yomoya, ngokuphindwe kahlanu ngaphezu kwesincomo se-WHO.
Ukuqukunjelwa kweVCÖ: Ukuba iAustria ithobela izikhokelo ezicetyiswa yi-WHO, abantu abambalwa abangama-2.900 banokufa nyaka ngamnye ngenxa yongcoliseko lomoya. Eyona mithombo mikhulu yongcoliseko lomoya zizithuthi, ishishini kunye nezakhiwo.
“Umoya kokona kutya kwethu kubalulekileyo. Oko sikuphefumlayo kunempembelelo enkulu ekubeni sihlala sisempilweni okanye siyagula. I-particulate matter kunye ne-nitrogen dioxide inokonakalisa indlela yokuphefumla, ibangele izifo zentliziyo kunye nokubetha. Amaxabiso akhoyo akhoyo aphezulu kakhulu, utshilo ingcali yeVCÖ uMosshammer, ebhekisa kumgaqo omtsha weWorld Health Organisation (WHO).
“Izinto ezikhutshwayo ezindleleni zikhutshwa ngobuninzi kwiindawo abahlala kuzo abantu. Okukhona ungcoliseko oluninzi luphuma kumbhobho, kokukhona lungena emiphungeni yethu. Yiyo loo nto imilinganiselo yokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwezithuthi ezindleleni ibaluleke kangaka,” igxininisa ingcali yeVCÖ uMosshammer zur Ukumoshwa komoya.
Okungundoqo koku kukutshintsha ukusuka kuhambo lweemoto ukuya kwizithuthi zikawonke-wonke kwaye, kumgama omfutshane, ukuya kwiibhayisekile kunye nokuhamba. Ukongeza ekuphuculeni unikezelo kunye neziseko ezingundoqo, ukucuthwa kunye nokulawulwa kweendawo zokupaka iimoto zoluntu nako kubalulekile. Imimandla yokusingqongileyo kufuneka yaziswe kuthutho lwempahla. Kwizixeko ezingaphakathi, ziimoto ezingakhutshwanga kukhutshwa kuphela emazihanjiswe endaweni yeeveni zedizili.
