E-JAKOBABAD, Pakistan — Umthengisi wamanzi uyashisa, womile futhi ukhathele. Yihora lesi-9 ekuseni futhi ilanga linonya. Abathengisi bamanzi bashaya ujenga futhi ngokushesha bagcwalisa inqwaba yamabhodlela angama-5-gallon esiteshini samanzi, bampompa amanzi angaphansi ahlungiwe. Abanye madala, maningi bancane, abanye bayizingane. Usuku nosuku, bashaya ujenga kwesinye seziteshi zamanzi ezizimele ezingu-12 edolobheni eliseningizimu yePakistan ukuze bathenge futhi badayisele abantu bendawo amanzi. Ngemva kwalokho bahamba ngezithuthuthu noma izinqola zezimbongolo ukuze bahlangabezane nezidingo eziyisisekelo zokuphuza nokugeza. kwelinye lamadolobha ashisa kakhulu emhlabeni.
I-Jakobabad, idolobha elinabantu abangu-300,000, iyindawo yokufudumala engu-zero. Ingelinye lamadolobha amabili eMhlabeni eleqa izinga lokushisa nomswakama wokubekezelela umzimba womuntu. Kodwa ngokungangabazeki yilo elisengozini enkulu yokuguquka kwesimo sezulu. kanye nokucisha kukagesi okuthatha amahora angu-12-18 ngosuku, ukushisa nokushisa kuyizithiyo zansuku zonke zeningi lezakhamuzi ezimpofu zedolobha. Abantu abaningi bonga imali ukuze bathengeiphaneli yelangafuthi basebenzise isiphephetha-moya ukupholisa ikhaya labo.Kodwa abenzi bemithetho yedolobha bebengalungiselelwanga futhi bengakulungele ukumelana nokushisa okukhulu.
Isiteshi samanzi esizimele esivakashelwe yi-VICE World News besiphethwe usomabhizinisi obehleli emthunzini ebuka abadayisi bexabana.Akafunanga ukudalula igama lakhe ngoba ibhizinisi lakhe liwela endaweni empunga. kubadayisi bamanzi abazimele kanye nabanikazi beziteshi zamanzi ngenxa yokuthi bahlangabezana nezidingo eziyisisekelo kodwa ngobuchwepheshe basizakala ngenkinga yamanzi.IPakistan iyizwe lesithathu elinokucindezeleka kwamanzi emhlabeni wonke, futhi isimo sikaJacob Bader sibi nakakhulu.
Umnikazi wesiteshi uthe ulala ku-air conditioner ebusuku kanti umndeni wakhe uhlala endaweni eqhele ngamamayela angu-250.” Kushisa kakhulu ukuthi bangahlala lapha,” etshela i-VICE World News, ngesikhathi ethi amanzi ompompi akuleli dolobha awathembekile futhi angcolile. Kungakho abantu bethenga kuye. Uthe ikhaya lakhe lalingu-$2,000 ngenyanga. Ezinsukwini ezimnandi, abathengisi bamanzi abathenga kuye futhi badayisele abantu bendawo benza inzuzo eyanele ukuze babagcine bengaphezu kwesilinganiso sobumpofu ePakistan.
Umdayisi wamanzi oyingane eJacobabad, ePakistan, uphuza amanzi ngokuqondile epayipini elixhunywe esiteshini samanzi, bese egcwalisa amathini akhe angamalitha angu-5 ngamasenti angu-10 lilinye. Ukhokhela umnikazi wesiteshi samanzi u-$1 ngamanzi angenamkhawulo usuku lonke.
"Ngisebhizinisini lamanzi ngoba ayikho enye into engingayenza," umhwebi wamanzi oneminyaka engu-18, onqabile negama lakhe ngenxa yezinkinga eziyimfihlo, utshele i-VICE World News ngesikhathi egcwalisa imbiza eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka. esiteshini samanzi.”Ngifundile.Kodwa akukho msebenzi lapha kimina,” esho, ovame ukudayisa ojeke ngamasenti angu-5 noma ama-rupee angu-10, ingxenye yenani labanye abathengisi, ngoba amakhasimende akhe ampofu njengaye.Ingxenye eyodwa kwezintathu yabantu baseJacobabad iphila ngobumpofu.
Ngezindlela eziningi, i-Jakobabad ibonakala ibambekile esikhathini esedlule, kodwa ukwenziwa kwangasese kwesikhashana kwezinsiza eziyisisekelo njengamanzi nogesi lapha kusinikeza amazwibela okuthi amagagasi okushisa azovame kangakanani emhlabeni jikelele esikhathini esizayo.
Idolobha njengamanje libhekene ne-heatwave engakaze ibonwe yamasonto ayi-11 enesilinganiso sokushisa esingu-47°C. Isiteshi salo sezulu sendawo siqophe u-51°C noma u-125°F izikhathi eziningi kusukela ngoMashi.
”Amagagasi okushisa athule.Uyajuluka, kodwa uyahwamuka, futhi awuwuzwa.Umzimba wakho uphelelwa amanzi kakhulu, kodwa awuwezwa.Awukuzwa ngempela ukushisa.Kodwa kuvele kukwenze Uwe Phansi,” u-Iftikhar Ahmed, umbukeli wesimo sezulu eMnyangweni Wezesimo Sezulu wasePakistan e-Jakobabad, utshele i-VICE World News.” Sekuyisikhathi eside kangaka, akukaze kushise ngale ndlela.Ingu-48C manje, kodwa izwakala njengo-50C (noma i-122F).Lokho kuzongena ngoSepthemba.”
U-Iftikhar Ahmed, umqaphi wesimo sezulu ohamba phambili wedolobha, umi eduze kwe-barometer endala ehhovisi lakhe elilula.Imishini yakhe eminingi isendaweni engaphandle evalekile esikhungweni sekolishi ngaphesheya komgwaqo.Wahamba waqopha izinga lokushisa ledolobha izikhathi ezimbalwa. usuku.
Akekho osazi isimo sezulu sase-Jakobbad kangcono kuno-Ahmed.Sekuyiminyaka engaphezu kweshumi eqopha izinga lokushisa ledolobha nsuku zonke.Ihhovisi lika-Ahmed line-barometer yaseBrithani eneminyaka eyikhulu ubudala, insalela yesikhathi esidlule sedolobha.Sekungamakhulu eminyaka abantu bomdabu yalesi sifunda esomile esiseningizimu yePakistan yahoxa ehlobo elishubile lapha, yaphinde yabuya ebusika. Ngokwendawo, iJakobabad ingaphansi kweTropic of Cancer, nelanga liphezulu ehlobo. Kodwa eminyakeni engu-175 edlule, lapho le ndawo iseyingxenye yeTropic of Cancer. Umbuso waseBrithani, isikhulu esibizwa ngokuthi uBrigadier General John Jacobs wakha umsele. Umphakathi otshala irayisi wakhula kancane kancane eduze komthombo wamanzi. Idolobha elakhiwe nxazonke zalo liqanjwe ngaye: IJacobabad okusho ukuthi indawo kaJakobe.
Idolobha belingeke lidonse ukunaka emhlabeni wonke ngaphandle kocwaningo olushaqisayo lwango-2020 ngososayensi ohamba phambili wesimo sezulu u-Tom Matthews, ofundisa e-King's College London. Ubone ukuthi i-Jacobabad ePakistan kanye ne-Ras al Khaimah e-United Arab Emirates bahlangabezane nokushisa okunomswakama okubulalayo noma okumanzi. amazinga okushisa esibani angu-35°C. Lokho kwakungamashumi eminyaka ngaphambi kokuba ososayensi babikezele ukuthi uMhlaba uzokwephula umkhawulo ongu-35°C - izinga lokushisa lapho ukuchayeka amahora ambalwa kungaba yingozi.Umzimba womuntu awukwazi ukujuluka ngokwanele noma uphuze amanzi ngokushesha ngokwanele lulama kulokho kushisa okumanzi.
"I-Jakobabad kanye ne-Indus Valley ezungezile ziyizindawo ezigcwele kakhulu zomphumela wokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu," uMatthews utshele i-VICE World News." Uma ubona okuthile okumele ukhathazeke ngakho - kusukela ekuphepheni kwamanzi kuya ekushiseni okukhulu, umi ngaphezu kwalabo abasengozini - empeleni kuphezu kwamandla. imingcele yomhlaba wonke. "
Kodwa uMatthews ubuye axwayise ngokuthi u-35°C awucacile ngempela.” Imiphumela yokushisa okudlulele kanye nomswakama isivele isobala ngaphambi kokuba lowo mngcele weqe,” esho esemzini wakhe oseLondon.” Njengoba amazinga okushisa egilobhu amanzi ngaphansi kwalowo mngcele, abantu abaningi ngeke bakwazi ukukhipha ukushisa okwanele ngokusekelwe kulokho abakwenzayo.”
UMatthews uthe uhlobo lokushisa olumanzi uJacob Budd aluqopha bekunzima ukukubamba ngaphandle kokuvula isiphephetha-moya. Kodwa ngenxa yenkinga kagesi eJacob Babad, uthe izindawo zokukhosela ezingaphansi komhlaba zingenye yezindlela zokunqanda ukushisa okukhulu. ubungozi bakho.Amagagasi okushisa ngokuvamile aphela ngezimvula ezinamandla ezingakhukhula izindawo zokukhosela ezingaphansi komhlaba.
Azikho izixazululo ezilula zamagagasi okushisa anomswakama esikhathi esizayo e-Jacobad, kodwa aseseduze, ngokwezibalo zesimo sezulu.” Ekupheleni kwekhulu leminyaka, uma ukufudumala kwembulunga kufinyelela ku-4 degrees Celsius, ezinye izingxenye zaseNingizimu Asia, iPersian Gulf kanye neNyakatho yeChina. I-Plain izokweqa umkhawulo ongu-35 degrees Celsius.Hhayi minyaka yonke, kodwa amagagasi ashisayo azokhukhula endaweni enkulu,” kusho uMa.Kuxwayisa uHughes.
Isimo sezulu esibi kakhulu asiyona into entsha ePakistan.Kodwa ukuvama kwaso nesikali akukaze kube khona.
"Umehluko wokushisa phakathi kwemini nobusuku uyancipha ePakistan, okuyinto ekhathazayo," isazi sesimo sezulu sasePakistan uDkt Sardar Sarfaraz sitshele i-VICE World News.“Okwesibili, izindlela zokuna kwemvula ziyashintsha.Kwesinye isikhathi uthola imvula enkulu njengo-2020, futhi iKarachi izoba nemvula enkulu.Izikhukhula zasemadolobheni ngezinga elikhulu.Kwesinye isikhathi uba nezimo ezifana nesomiso.Ngokwesibonelo, sibe nezinyanga ezine ezomile zilandelana kusukela ngoFebhuwari kuya kuMeyi kulo nyaka, ezomile kunazo zonke emlandweni wasePakistan.”
Umbhoshongo oyinqaba iVictoria eJacobabad uwubufakazi besikhathi esedlule sekoloni. Yaklanywa umzala kaCommodore John Jacobs ukuthi akhokhele iNdlovukazi uVictoria ngemuva nje kokuthi uJacobs eguqule idolobhana laseKangal laba idolobha eliphethwe yiBritish Crown ngo-1847.
Ukushisa okomile kwalo nyaka kubi ezitshalweni kodwa akubabulali kangako abantu. Ngo-2015, igagasi lokushisa elinomswakama labulala abantu abangu-2,000 esifundazweni sase-Pakistan sase-Sindh, lapho i-Jacobabad ingowakhona. amaphethini kanye nokukhishwa kwamagesi abamba ukushisa, okubikezela “igagasi elishisayo elishisayo ezindaweni eziminyene kwezolimo eNingizimu Asia” ekupheleni kwekhulu lama-21. Igama likaJacob Bader alizange lishiwo embikweni wabo, kodwa leli dolobha lalibonakala libomvu ngendlela eyingozi emabalazweni abo.
Isihluku sesimo sezulu esibucayi sibhekene nawe e-Jacob Bard. Ihlobo eliyingozi lihambisana nenani eliphakeme lokuvunwa kwerayisi kanye nokuphela kwamandla kagesi.Kodwa kwabaningi, ukushiya akuyona inketho.
U-Khair Bibi ungumlimi werayisi ohlala endlini yodaka okungenzeka inamakhulu eminyaka ubudala, kodwaiphaneli yelangalokho kugijima abalandeli.” Konke kwaba nzima nakakhulu ngoba sasimpofu,” utshele i-VICE World News ngesikhathi enyakazisa ingane yakhe engondlekile enezinyanga eziyisithupha ubudala kuhhamokhi wendwangu emthunzini.
Umndeni kaKhair Bibi wayazi futhi ukuthi isimiso semisele eyayisetshenziswa uJacobabad ukunisela amasimu erayisi nokugeza izinkomo nawo ayewangcolisa amanzi angaphansi komhlaba ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ngakho wazifaka engozini yokuthenga amanzi ahlungiwe kubathengisi abancane ukuze bawasebenzise nsuku zonke.
Umlimi werayisi ka-Jacob Budd, u-Khair Bibi, akakwazanga ukunakekela izingane zakhe.
“Lapho ukushisa nomswakama kuphezulu lapha, imizimba yethu iyajuluka kakhulu futhi iba sengozini enkulu.Uma umswakama ungekho, asiboni ukuthi sijuluka kakhulu, futhi siqala ukugula, ”kusho umuntu ogama lakhe linguSisebenzi sasefektri yerayisi eneminyaka engu-25 eGhulam Sarwar etshela i-VICE World News ngesikhathi se-5- ikhefu elincane ngemva kokuthuthela i-100kg yerayisi nesinye isisebenzi. Usebenza amahora angu-8-10 ngosuku ekushiseni kakhulu ngaphandle kwesiphephetha-moya, kodwa uzibona enenhlanhla ngoba usebenza emthunzini.” Lesi sikhwama serayisi singu-100kg lapha, isikhwama laphaya. awu 60kg.Kukhona umthunzi lapha.Akukho mthunzi lapho.Akekho osebenza elangeni ngenxa yenjabulo, usephelelwe yithemba lokuphatha imizi yakhe,” usho kanje.
Izingane ezihlala eduze kwamasimu erayisi eKelbibi zingadlala ngaphandle ekuseni kakhulu uma kusafudumele. Ngenkathi izinyathi zazo zizipholele echibini, zidlala udaka. Kuqhamuke umbhoshongo omkhulu kagesi ngemuva kwazo. axhunywe kugridi yasePakistan, kodwa izwe libhekene nokushoda kukagesi, njengoba amadolobha ampofu kakhulu, njengeJakobabad, ethola ugesi omncane kakhulu.
Izingane zabalimi berayisi zidlalela izinkomo zabo echibini. Ukuphela kwento ababekwazi ukuyidlala kwaze kwashaya u-10 ekuseni base bebizelwa umndeni wabo ngenxa yokushisa.
Ukunqamuka kukagesi kube nomthelela omkhulu edolobheni.Abantu abaningi kuleli dolobha bakhale ngokunqamuka kukagesi okungapheli ongakwazi ngisho nokushaja izinto zikagesi ezisebenza ngamabhethri noma omakhalekhukhwini. ngokuqhubekayo amadigri amaningana afudumele kune-Apple's.I-Heat stroke iyingozi ecashile, futhi ngaphandle kwe-air conditioning, abantu abaningi bahlela izinsuku zabo ngokunqamuka kukagesi kanye nokufinyelela emanzini apholile kanye nomthunzi, ikakhulukazi phakathi namahora ashisa kakhulu phakathi kuka-11am no-4pm.Imakethe yaseJacobabad igcwele ama-ice cubes avela kubakhi beqhwa nezitolo, aphelele ngamafeni asebenza ngebhethri, amayunithi okupholisa kanye neyodwaiphaneli yelanga- ukunyuka kwentengo kwakamuva okwenze kwaba nzima ukukufica.
Nawab Khan, aiphaneli yelangaumdayisi emakethe, unophawu ngemuva kwakhe olusho ukuthi “Ubukeka umuhle, kodwa ukucelwa isikweletu akukuhle”.Selokhu aqala ukuthengisa.amaphaneli elangaEminyakeni eyisishiyagalombili edlule amanani azo aphindeke kathathu, kanti abaningi bacela amatolimende, osekungalawuleki, esho.
UNawab Khan, umdayisi we-solar eJacob Bard, uzungezwe amabhethri enziwe eChina. Umndeni wakhe awuhlali eJakobabad, futhi yena nabafowabo abahlanu bayashintshana ngokuphatha isitolo, bashintshane njalo ngemva kwezinyanga ezimbili, ngakho akekho okudingeka ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi ekushiseni kwedolobha.
Bese kuba nomthelela wawo ezitshalweni zasemanzini. Uhulumeni wase-US wasebenzisa imali eyizigidi ezimbili zamaRandi ukuze kuthuthukiswe izizinda zamanzi zikamasipala wase-Jacobabad, kodwa abantu abaningi bendawo bathi izintambo zabo zomile futhi iziphathimandla zasola ukucinywa kukagesi.” Isidingo samanje samanzi kubantu singamalitha ayizigidi ezingu-8 ngosuku.Kodwa ngenxa yokunqamuka kukagesi okuqhubekayo, sikwazi nje ukuhlinzeka ngamalitha ayizigidi ezingu-3-4 zamanzi avela ezimbonini zethu zokuhlunga amanzi,” uSagar Pahuja, isikhulu samanzi nokukhucululwa kwendle edolobheni laseJacobabad, utshele i-VICE World News. baqhuba imboni enamajeneretha asebenza kuphethiloli, bazosebenzisa i-$3,000 ngosuku - imali abangenayo.
Abanye abantu bakule ndawo okukhulunywe nabo yi-VICE World News baphinde bakhala ngokuthi amanzi asefemini awaphuzwa, njengoba kusho umnikazi wesiteshi samanzi esizimele. Umbiko we-USAID wangonyaka odlule nawo waqinisekisa izikhalo zamanzi. amanzi.
Njengamanje, i-USAID isebenza kwenye iphrojekthi yamanzi nokukhucululwa kwendle e-Jakobabad, okuyingxenye yohlelo olukhulu lwamaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-40 esifundazweni sase-Sindh, utshalomali olukhulu kakhulu lwase-US emkhakheni wezokuthuthwa kwendle wasePakistan, Kodwa uma kubhekwa ubumpofu obudlulele obudlangile kuleli dolobha, imiphumela yako incane kakhulu. ukuzwakala.Imali yaseMelika kusobala ukuthi isetshenziswa esibhedlela esikhulu esingenalo igumbi lezimo eziphuthumayo, idolobha elilidinga ngempela njengoba amagagasi okushisa enyuka futhi abantu bevame ukwehla ngenxa yokushisa.
Isikhungo se-heatwave esivakashelwe yi-VICE World News sisegunjini lezimo eziphuthumayo esibhedlela sikahulumeni. Ine-air-conditioning futhi inethimba elizinikele lodokotela nabahlengikazi, kodwa linemibhede emine kuphela.
I-USAID, ezinze ePakistan, ayizange iphendule ezicelweni eziphindaphindiwe zokuthi kuphawulwe i-VICE World News.Ngokwesizindalwazi sabo, imali ethunyelwe kuJacob Barbad ivela kubantu baseMelika ihloselwe ukuthuthukisa izimpilo zezakhamizi zayo eziyizi-300,000. Kodwa i-Yaqabad futhi iyikhaya lesikhungo sezempi sasePakistan i-Shahbaz Air Base, lapho ama-drones ase-US ayendizela khona esikhathini esedlule nalapho izindiza zase-US bezindizela khona ngesikhathi se-Operation Enduring Freedom.I-Jacobabad inomlando weminyaka engu-20 ne-US Marine Corps, futhi azikaze zilubeke unyawo e-Air. Force base.Ukuba khona kwamasosha ase-US ePakistan kube yimbangela enkulu yengxabano iminyaka, nakuba amasosha asePakistan akuphikile ukuba khona kwawo e-Yakobad.
Naphezu kwezinselelo zokuhlala lapha, inani labantu base-Jakobabad liyaqhubeka nokwanda. Izikole zomphakathi namanyuvesi sekuyiminyaka eminingi bedonsa kanzima. Ngisho noma abantu abaningi belwela ukuphatha izidingo zamanzi namandla kanye nokulwa nokushisa kokushisa, idolobhakazi liyafundisa ngemisebenzi esizayo.
“Sinezitshalo eziningi lapha.Ngicwaninga ngezinambuzane ezikwazi ukumelana nokushisa okukhulu kanye nezinambuzane ezihlasela izitshalo zelayisi.Ngifuna ukuzifunda ukuze ngisize abalimi bonge izitshalo zabo.Ngithemba ukuthi ngizothola uhlobo olusha endaweni yangakithi,” Isazi sezinambuzane uNatasha Solangi sitshele i-VICE World News ukuthi ufundisa ngesayensi yezilwane kwenye yamanyuvesi amadala edolobha kanye nokuwukuphela kwekolishi labesifazane esifundeni.”Sinabafundi abangaphezu kuka-1,500.Uma kunqamuka ugesi, asikwazi ukugijima abalandeli.Kushisa kakhulu.Asinayoamaphaneli elanganoma amanye amandla.Abafundi manje babhala izivivinyo zabo njengoba kushisa kakhulu.”
Endleleni ebuya lapho kunqanyulwa khona amanzi, isisebenzi sasendlini sokugaya irayisi u-Ghulam Sarwar usize ukubeka isikhwama serayisi esingu-60kg emhlane wesisebenzi sangaphandle. Uzibona enenhlanhla ngoba usebenza emthunzini.
U-Jakobabad wayempofu, eshisa futhi enganakiwe, kodwa umphakathi wedolobha wahlangana ukuze uzisindise.Lobu budlelwane bubonakala emigwaqweni yedolobha, lapho kunezindawo ezinomthunzi ezinama-coolers kanye nezibuko eziqhutshwa amavolontiya amahhala, nasezimbonini zerayisi lapho abasebenzi benakekela khona. sodwa.” Uma isisebenzi siphethwe ukushisa, siyehla bese simyisa kudokotela.Uma umnikazi wefekthri ekhokha, kuhle lokho.Kodwa uma engakwenzi lokho siyayikhipha ephaketheni imali,” kusho uMi.Isisebenzi sasefekthri uSalva uthe.
Imakethe eseceleni komgwaqo e-Jacobabad idayisa ama-ice cubes ngamasenti angu-50 noma ama-rupees angu-100 ukuze abantu bagoduke nawo, futhi bathengisa amajusi esizini amasha afakwe emanzini okupholisa nama-electrolyte ngamasenti angu-15 noma ama-rupee angu-30.
Izikole zomphakathi zaseJacobabad kanye nezindleko eziphansi zokuphila ziheha abokufika abavela ezindaweni ezizungezile.Intengo yejusi entsha ezimakethe zasemadolobheni iyingxenye yesithathu yalokho ozokubona emadolobheni amakhulu asePakistan.
Kodwa imizamo yomphakathi ngeke yanele esikhathini esizayo, ikakhulukazi uma uhulumeni engakangeni.
ENingizimu ye-Asia, imiphakathi yase-Indus Valley yasePakistan isengozini kakhulu, kodwa ingena ngaphansi kwamandla ohulumeni bezifundazwe abane abahlukene, futhi uhulumeni wobumbano awunawo “inqubomgomo yokushisa okwedlulele” noma uhlela ukuyidala.
Ungqongqoshe wenhlangano yokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu ePakistan, uSherry Rehman, utshele i-VICE World News ukuthi ukungenelela kukahulumeni wobumbano ezifundazweni akukho mbuzo ngoba abanawo amandla phezu kwazo. izinqubo zokusebenza zokuqondisa kokulawula okushisayo” kucatshangelwa ukuba sengozini kwesifunda kanye nengcindezi yamanzi.
Kodwa idolobha noma uhulumeni wesifundazwe sase-Jakobabad ngokusobala awukakulungeli ukushisa okukhulu.Isikhungo sokushisa esivakashelwa yi-VICE World News sineqembu elizinikele lodokotela nabahlengikazi kodwa kunemibhede emine kuphela.
“Akukho ukwesekwa kukahulumeni, kodwa siyeseka sodwa,” kusho uSawar.” Akuyona inkinga uma kungekho obuza ngempilo yethu.UNkulunkulu ngenxa yokungavikeleki kahle.”
Ngokubhalisa, uyavumelana neMigomo Yokusebenzisa kanye Nenqubomgomo Yemfihlo futhi uthole ukuxhumana nge-elekthronikhi okuvela ku-Vice Media Group, okungase kuhlanganise ukukhushulwa kokumaketha, ukukhangisa nokuqukethwe okuxhasiwe.
