Iqembu leMaine liphakamisa ukuthi amabhizinisi epulazi lelanga kufanele ahlanganiswe nokulima

Ibhizinisi lelanga eMaine liyadlondlobala, futhi abalimi abaningi bangena emakethe ngokuqashisa umhlaba wabo ezinkampanini ezisebenza ngelanga.amaphaneli elangangokudla amapulazi amaningi eMaine.
Phakathi kuka-2016 no-2021, ukukhiqizwa kwamandla ephaneli yelanga e-Maine kukhuphuke ngaphezu kokuphindwe kashumi, sibonga kakhulu ngezinguquko zenqubomgomo ezihloselwe ukukhuthaza amandla avuselelekayo. zivumelaamaphaneli elangaukuhluma emhlabathini wabo kunezitshalo.

Njengoba kukhula ukukhathazeka ngokwanda kweamaphaneli elangamayelana nomhlaba wezolimo, ithimba elisebenzayo lincoma ukuthi uMaine asebenzise izinxephezelo zezezimali noma ezinye izinqubomgomo ukukhuthaza “ukusetshenziswa okukabili” kwendawo yokulima.
Ngokwesibonelo,amaphaneli elangaingagxunyekwa phezulu noma ngokuqhelelana ukuze ivumele izilwane ukuba ziklabe noma izitshalo zikhule ngaphansi naseduze kwe-solar.
UKhomishana wezoLimo, ezoKongiwa kanye namaHlathi eMaine u-Amanda Beal utshele abameli ngoLwesibili ukuthi umbuso ufuna ukuthola izindlela zokulinganisa izidingo zabalimi kanye nezithakazelo zezomnotho ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezinhloso zesimo sezulu zaseMaine.
Embikweni okhishwe ngenyanga edlule, i-Agricultural Solar Stakeholder Group yancoma ukuthi kutholwe ezinye izifundazwe ngenkathi yethula uhlelo lokuhlola oluqinile lokuhlola amasu angcono kakhulu okusetshenziswa kwamapulazi okukabili.
“Sifuna abalimi bazikhethele,” kusho uBill etshela amalungu awo womabili amakomiti omthetho.” Sifuna bakwazi ukuzenzela izinqumo.Ngeke siwaphuce lawo mathuba.”
Umbiko waleli qembu uphinde ucele ukuthi kugqugquzelwe ukuthuthukiswa kwe-solar enkulu emhlabeni oseceleni noma ongcolile.amaphaneli elangaemapulazini atholakale engcoliswe ikhemikhali ehlala njalo eyaziwa ngokuthi i-PFAS, inkinga ekhulayo eMaine.
Isikhungo sikaBeal, kanye noMnyango Wezokuvikelwa Kwemvelo eMaine, sisezigabeni zokuqala zophenyo lweminyaka eminingi ukuthola ukungcola kwe-PFAS emhlabeni owawuvundiswe ngodaka okungenzeka ukuthi unamakhemikhali ezimboni.

U-Rep. Seth Berry wase-Bowdoinham, usihlalo-kanye wekomidi elibhekele izindaba zamandla, uvumile ukuthi iMaine inenani elincane lomhlabathi wezolimo wezinga eliphezulu.Kodwa uBerry uthe ubona indlela yokulinganisa izidingo zombuso zokulima nezolimo.
“Ngicabanga ukuthi kuyithuba eliyivelakancane ukulilungisa ngempela ukuze siqinisekise ukuthi sinamasu futhi sinemba kulokho esikukhuthazayo,” kusho uBerry, usihlalo ohlanganyele weKomidi LeSishayamthetho Lezamandla, Izinsiza Nobuchwepheshe.Amakomiti ethu kuzofanele asebenze ezinqolobaneni ezijwayelekile ukuze lokhu kwenzeke.”
