Wokondedwa chifukwa cha malo ake ochititsa chidwi, mbiri yake yochuluka ndi malo ake odyera malo abwino, Cape Town ndi imodzi mwa malo otchuka kwambiri ku South Africa. Komabe, Mayi wa Mayi tsopano ali ndi vuto lalikulu la madzi. Zakale, mzindawu wakhala ukulimbana ndi nyengo za chilala chifukwa cha kusamalira madzi mosamala, komwe kumathandiza kuti apulumuke mpaka madamu ake atadzaza ndi mvula yabwino chaka chotsatira.
Koma tsopano, Cape Town ikukumana ndi chaka chachitatu cha chilala, zomwe zimayambitsa kusowa kwa madzi kwa zaka 100. Tawonani momwe chilalacho chinayambira, ndipo chomwe chimatanthauza kwa anthu ndi alendo mofanana.
Mtsinje wa Chilala
Mavuto omwe akukumana nawo lero adayamba mu 2015, pamene masitepe akuluakulu a ku Cape Town adayenda kuchokera ku 71.9% mpaka 50.1% chifukwa cha mvula yomwe inalephera. 2016 anali chaka china chouma kwambiri, ndi chilala chomwe chinachitika m'madera onse ku South Africa. Pamene madera ena a dziko adathandizidwa ndi mvula yambiri m'nyengo yozizira ya 2016, komabe madzi a Cape Town anapitirizabe kufika 31.2%. Pofika mu May 2017, chiŵerengero chimenecho chinali cha 21.2%.
Mu June 2017, anthu akuyembekeza kuti chilala chikhoza kuthyoledwa ndi Cape Storm, yomwe idagwa mvula ya 50 mm ndi kusefukira kwakukulu m'madera ena a mzindawo. Ngakhale kuti chilalacho chinali cholimba, chilala chinapitirira ndipo mu September, Madzi a Madzi a Mchenga 5 adayambitsidwa kuwonetsa madzi okwanira 87 malita patsiku.
Patatha mwezi umodzi, akatswiri amanena kuti mzindawu unali ndi miyezi isanu yokha isanayambe madzi asanathe. Zochitika zowopsya izi tsopano zatchedwa "Zero la Tsiku".
Chowonadi cha Tsiku Zero
Tsiku la Zero lasankhidwa ndi Meya wa Cape Town Patricia de Lille ngati tsiku limene yosungiramo katundu akufika 13.5%.
Ngati izi zichitika, matepi ambiri kudutsa mumzindawu adzatsekedwa, ndipo anthu adzakakamizidwa kuti apite kumalo osungiramo madzi m'mphepete mwa Cape Town kuti adzalandire 25 malita tsiku ndi tsiku. Malowa adzayang'aniridwa ndi apolisi ndi asilikali; Komabe, zikuwoneka kuti palibe chitsimikizo kuti thanzi labwino, chitetezo ndi chuma chonse zidzakhudzidwa ndi zotsatira zake. Chochitika choipa kwambiri tsopano chikuyambidwira kuti chiyambire pa 29 April 2018, ngakhale kuti pali chiyembekezo kuti icho chingapewe.
Zochitika Zachilengedwe za Mavuto
Akatswiri amakhulupirira kuti vutoli linayambitsidwa ndi El Niño ya 2014-2016, nyengo yomwe imachititsa kuti madzi a m'nyanja Pacific ayambe kutentha. Chifukwa cha kutentha kumeneku, El Niño imakhudza nyengo padziko lonse lapansi-komanso ku Southern Africa, zimabweretsa kuchepa kwakukulu kwa mvula. Mvula ya ku South Africa pakati pa January ndi December 2015 inali yotsika kwambiri kuyambira mu 1904, ndipo izi zinangokhalako chifukwa cha El Niño.
Zotsatira za El Niño zinapangidwanso ndi kutentha kwakukulu ndi kuchedwa kwa mvula ku South Africa chifukwa cha kusintha kwa nyengo. Ku Cape Town, kusintha kwa nyengo kwasintha mvula yam'mphepete mwa madera a mumzindawu, ndipo mvula imabwera mtsogolo, mobwerezabwereza kapena nthawi zina sichitha kuchitika.
Choipa kwambiri, zaka zocheperachepera-mvula zakhala zikuchitika mobwerezabwereza, kupereka madzi a mumzindawu kumapereka mpata wochulukirapo kuchokera nthawi ya chilala.
Zovuta Kwambiri
Kuwonjezeka kwa chiwerengero cha Cape Town ndilo vuto. Pakati pa 1995 ndi 2018, mzindawu unawona kuti anthu 55% akuwonjezeka kuchokera pa 2.4 miliyoni mpaka 4,3 miliyoni, pomwe madzi akusungira ndi 15 peresenti panthawi yomweyi. Mzinda wovuta kwambiri wa ndalewu wakhala wovuta kwambiri. Chipatala cha Western Cape, chomwe Cape Town ndilo likulu, chimayendetsedwa ndi Democratic Alliance (DA), chipani cha chipani cha South Africa. Nkhazikitsano pakati pa DA ndi chipani cha chipani cha ANC, chalepheretsa mayiko a boma ndi maboma kuti athetse vuto la madzi.
Mwachitsanzo, mu 2015, boma la dziko linakana pempho la R35 miliyoni, lomwe lingagwiritsidwe ntchito kuwonjezera madzi pobowola zitsulo zatsopano ndi kubwezeretsanso madzi. Pambuyo pake, adandaula ndi Meya wa Cape Town kuti amuthandizenso thandizo la chithandizo. Malinga ndi zowonjezera nkhani, malo osokoneza bongo, ngongole ndi uphungu mu Dipatimenti ya Madzi ndi Kusungirako zitsamba ndizolakwa. Makamaka, kulephera kwabwino kugwiritsira ntchito madzi aulimi kumayambiriro kwa chilala kunathandiza kuchepetsa kuwonongeka koyamba kwa madambo a ku Cape Town.
Kodi Zingakhudze Bwanji Ulendo Wanga?
Kwa anthu okhala ku Capetoni, Mzigawo 6 za madzi zimatanthauza kuletsa ulimi wothirira, kuthirira, kudzaza madzi osambira osambira ndi kusamba magalimoto ndi madzi akumwa mumzinda. Kugwiritsa ntchito madzi moyenera kumangokhala maola 87 patsiku, ndipo mabanja omwe amagwiritsa ntchito malita opitirira 10,500 a madzi pamwezi ali ndi ndalama zokwana R10,000. Bungwe laulimi likuyenera kuchepetsa kumwa madzi ndi 60 peresenti (poyerekeza ndi ntchito isanakwane chaka cha 2015). Alendo adzakhudzidwa makamaka ndi lamulo loletsedwa kuti malonda (kuphatikizapo mahoteli) achepetsa kugwiritsidwa ntchito ndi 45%.
Kwa malo ambiri, izi zikutanthawuza kukhazikitsa madzi otetezera monga kusambitsa madzi osamba, mvula yowonongeka ndi zipangizo zomwe zimachepetsa kuthamanga kwa madzi ndi kusintha kusintha kwazitsulo pokhapokha pakufunikira. Mahotela ambiri apamwamba akutseketsa zipinda zawo zamadzi ndi ma chubu otentha, pamene ambiri a hotelo akusambira alibe kanthu. Kuwonjezera pamenepo, monga anthu okhala ku Cape Town, alendo angapeze kuti zipangizo zamadzi a m'mabotolo zimakhala zovuta kwambiri. Pamene ulimi umapweteka chifukwa cha kuchepetsa madzi, mitengo ya zakudya ndi kupezeka zimakhudzanso.
Mmene Mungathandizire
Kuchokera kuzilengezi za ndege zisanafike ku Cape Town kuti zilembedwe m'malo ochitira anthu komanso malo ogulitsira hotelo, njira zomwe mungathandizire kusungira madzi zikufalitsidwa mumzindawu. Zambirizi zimagwiritsa ntchito njira zopulumutsa madzi, kuphatikizapo kuchepetsa nthawi yanu yosamba mpaka maminiti awiri, kutseka pompu pamene mukukuta mano ndi kuchepetsa nthawi yomwe mumachotsera chimbuzi. Bungwe la zokopa alendo la Save Like Local campaign limapereka mndandanda wa njira zomwe mungathe kuthandizira, pamene pulogalamuyi ikuthandizani kuti muwonetsetse kuti simukuposa malipiro anu asanu ndi atatu pa tsiku.
Musanayambe kukonza hotelo yanu , onetsetsani kuti mufunse za njira zopulumutsa madzi zomwe zilipo.
Tsogolo
Patsiku la Zero likuyandikira, palibe kukayikira kuti mkhalidwe wa madzi ku Cape Town ndi wovuta. Kukhazikika kwa zinthu monga kusintha kwa nyengo ndi kuwonjezeka kwa chiwerengero cha anthu a ku South Africa kumatanthauza kuti mavuto a Cape Town m'zaka zitatu zapitazi angathe kukhala achilendo; komabe, ngakhale kuti sitingakwanitse kulamulira boma, mzindawu uli ndi mapulogalamu abwino kwambiri oyendetsa madzi padziko lapansi.
Akukonzekera kuwonjezera madzi a Cape Town, ndipo ntchito zisanu ndi ziwiri zochokera ku zomera zatsopano zozizira m'madzi kupita kumadzi akuyang'ana pansi zimayenera kupereka madzi okwanira 196 miliyoni pa tsiku pakati pa February ndi July 2018. Zili kuyembekezera kuti izi zitha (kuphatikizapo mwakhama Kutsatila kuzitsulo za Mbewu 6) kudzakhala kokwanira kuteteza tsiku la Zero kuti lisakhale chenicheni.
Kodi Ndiyenera Kupitabebe?
Padakali pano, n'kofunika kuti alendo azikumbukira kuti zinthu zomwe zimapangitsa Cape Town kukhala yapadera- kuchokera ku malesitilanti ake padziko lonse ndi mabombe ake osasangalatsa-akhalabe ofanana.
Zovuta zazing'ono zomwe okaona alendo akukumana nacho chifukwa cha vuto la madzi ndizochepa mtengo woperekera zodabwitsa za ulendo wopita ku Mayi City. Ngakhale nyengo yayitali, alendo amawonjezera chiwerengero cha anthu a m'tawuni ya Cape Town pokhapokha ndi 1-3 peresenti, motero zimakhala zosiyana kwambiri ndi madzi omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito mumzindawu (poganiza kuti akutsatira malamulo). Komabe, ndalama zomwe zimapangidwa ndi ulendo wanu zikufunika tsopano kuposa kale lonse. Choncho, mmalo moletsa ulendo wanu ku Cape Town, ingokumbukira chilala ndipo onetsetsani kuti mukuthandizani pang'ono.
