Zvakare, mukuratidzira kunoshamisa kwekusakoshesa kugara zvakanaka kwevagari vemo, chiitiko ichi chiri kuitika mune imwe yenzvimbo dzakasvibiswa zvakanyanya pasi rose, muimba yeBASF, hofori yemakemikari epasi rose uye ari kubatsira zvikuru mukusvibiswa kwenyika.

Gumiguru rapfuura 2023, vakabatwa netsvina kubva kuBelgium, Italy neFrance vakakumbira vateereri naUrsula von der Leyen [1] kugadzirisa zvinoparadza hutano mhedzisiro yengozi yePFAS makemikari (per- uye polyfluoroalkyl zvinhu). Pasinei nechikumbiro chavo cherudo, manzwi avo haana kuteererwa.

Sezvo vatungamiri veEU vachiisa hurongwa hwavo pamberi pesarudzo, nhaurirano iyi yega yega pakati pemaindasitiri nevezvematongerwo enyika inosiyana zvikuru nezvimhingamipinyi zvinosangana nevagari vemunyika nemaNGO zvakafanana mukunzwa manzwi avo. Zvichakadaro, kusvibiswa kwemakemikari zvinonyadzisa zvinoramba zvichiitika muEurope yose [3]. Vakakuvadzwa vanoshoropodza zviito zvehofori dzemakambani se3M, Dupont, Chemours, kana Bayer-Monsanto, avo vasingangovanze zvinokuvadza zvemakemikari asi vanotenderwa kuenderera mukushandisa kwavo.

Mhedzisiro yechirongwa chikuru cheEurope chekuongorora makemikari ane muchetura, HBM4EU [5], inoratidza huwandu hunotyisa hwekusangana nemakemikari ane chekuita nezvinetso zvehutano zvakakomba segomarara, kushaya mbereko uye kuremara pakuzvarwa. Kunyangwe humbowo huri kuwedzera uye kuchema-chema kweveruzhinji, vagadziri vemitemo vanoramba vachikundwa nedzvinyiriro yeindasitiri, vachinonotsa kuvandudzwa kuri kudiwa kwemutemo weEU wekare wekutonga kemikemikari, REACH (iyo Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals), uye kuramba pazvipikirwa. mune yayo Chemicals Sustainability Strategy yeEurope isina chepfu.t

“Mangwana, vanosvibisa vachave nezuva rakanaka vachirasikirwa nevanhu nenharaunda muEurope. Ichi chiitiko chinotonhorera chekutambira neBig Toxics indasitiri, yakaitirwa pamusuwo wekumwe kusvibiswa kwe'makemikari asingaperi' muEurope, kunotyisa. Yave nguva yekuti makambani azvidavirire pamusoro pebasa rawo mukugadzira dambudziko rekusvibiswa kwehupfu, kwete kuvapa mubayiro. Mangwana maNGOs achada kugumisa rudzi urwu rwerukudzo rwekuwana kune vanoita sarudzo. Yasvika nguva yezvematongerwo enyika isina chepfu.”
