akuveza I-European Environment Agency Ukungcoliswa komoya okuvela ezinhlayiyeni ezithile, i-nitrogen dioxide ne-ozone kubangela ukufa ngaphambi kwesikhathi kwe-6.100 ngonyaka e-Austria, okusho ukuthi abantu abangu-69 bafa ngezakhamuzi eziyi-100.000. Kwamanye amazwe ayishumi nanye e-EU, isibalo sabantu abashonile maqondana nenani labantu siphansi kunase-Austria, kusho yena. I-Verkehrsclub Österreich VCÖ unake.
Ngokusho kwe-WHO, inani lomkhawulo wonyaka we-NO2 kufanele libe yi-10 micrograms per cubic meter yomoya, e-Austria liphindwe kathathu ku-30 micrograms. Umkhawulo wonyaka we-PM10 ama-micrograms angu-40 i-cubic meter yomoya, ngaphezu kokuphindwe kabili i-WHO etusa ama-microgram angu-15 kanti umkhawulo wonyaka we-PM2,5 ngama-micrograms angu-25 nge-cubic meter yomoya, ephakeme ngokuphindwe kahlanu kunesincomo se-WHO.
Isiphetho se-VCÖ: Uma i-Austria ithobela imihlahlandlela enconywe yi-WHO, bangu-2.900 abantu abambalwa abangafa unyaka ngamunye ngenxa yokungcoliswa komoya. Imithombo emikhulu yokungcola komoya traffic, izimboni namabhilidi.
“Umoya uwukudla kwethu okubalulekile. Esikuphefumulayo kunomthelela omkhulu ekutheni sihlala sinempilo noma siyagula. Izinhlayiya ze-particle kanye ne-nitrogen dioxide kungalimaza umgudu wokuphefumula, kubangele izifo zenhliziyo kanye nemivimbo. Amanani omkhawulo akhona aphakeme kakhulu," kusho uchwepheshe we-VCÖ uMosshammer, ebhekise kumanani amasha ezinkombandlela zeWorld Health Organisation (WHO).
“Izintula eziphuma emigwaqeni ikakhulukazi ziphuma ngobuningi lapho kuhlala khona abantu. Lapho izinto ezingcolisa umoya ziphuma ku-exhaust, zingena kakhulu emaphashini ethu. Yingakho izinyathelo zokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwezimoto zibaluleke kangaka,” kugcizelela uchwepheshe we-VCÖ uMosshammer zur ukungcola komoya.
Okubalulekile kulokhu ukusuka ohambweni lwezimoto ukuya kwezokuthutha zomphakathi futhi, kumabanga amafushane, ukuya emabhayisikili nokuhamba ngezinyawo. Ngaphezu kokuthuthukisa ukunikezwa nengqalasizinda, ukuncishiswa nokuphathwa kwezindawo zokupaka izimoto zomphakathi nakho kubalulekile. Izindawo zemvelo kufanele futhi zethulwe ukuthuthwa kwempahla. Emadolobheni angaphakathi, izimoto ezingakhiphi kuphela okufanele zilethe esikhundleni samaveni kadizili.
