Ngabantu abambalwa kakhulu, umuntu angacabanga ukuthi i-arctic izoba yindawo engenapulasitiki, kepha isifundo esisha sibonisa ukuthi akukude kakhulu neqiniso. Abaphenyi abafunda i-Arctic Ocean bathola imfucumfucu yepulasitiki yonke indawo. Ngokusho kukaTatiana Schlossberg weNew York Times, amanzi e-arctic abonakala njengendawo yokulahla epulasitiki entantayo nge-Ocean Currents.
Ipulasitiki yatholakala ngo-2013 ngethimba laphesheya labaphenyi phakathi nohambo lwezinyanga ezinhlanu emhlabeni wonke emhlabeni jikelele i-verel tara. Endleleni, bathatha amasampula wamanzi olwandle ukuba abheke ukungcoliswa kwepulasitiki. Yize ukugxila kwamapulasitiki ngokuvamile kwakuphansi, batholakala endaweni ethile eGreenland nasenyakatho kolwandle lwabalwa lapho ukugxila kuphakeme ngokungajwayelekile. Bashicilela okutholakele ejeni yesayensi.
Ipulasitiki libonakala lihamba lihamba nge-phermohaline gyre, "ibhande lokuhambisa" elivulekile "elithi" liyakha amanzi athwala amanzi aphansi ebheke ezigxotsheni. "I-Greenland kanye noLwandle lwababelungu kuphelile Kuphela kule pipi elinamakhaza," kusho umlobi ofunda u-Andrés Cozar Cabaañas, umcwaningi e-University of Cadiz eSpain, kusho ukukhishwa kwabezindaba.
Abaphenyi balinganisela ukuthi inani eliphelele lepulasitiki esifundeni lingamakhulu amathani, aqukethe amakhulu ezinkulungwane zezingcezwana ezincane zekhilomitha. Isikali singakhula sikhulu, abacwaningi bathi, njengoba kungenzeka ukuthi kungenzeka kubekwe ngopulasitiki olwandle kule ndawo.
U-Eric van Sebille, umbhali ophathelene noSifundo, utshele uRachel van Sebille e-Verge: "Ngenkathi iningi le-Arctic lihamba kahle, kukhona i-hotspot, kukhona lamanzi angcoliswe kakhulu."
Yize kungathandeki ukuthi ipulasitiki izolahlwa ngqo oLwandle lwababuthe (inkanyezi enamanzi ebandayo phakathi kweScandinavia neRussia), isimo sepulasitiki sitholakale sisikisela ukuthi kube olwandle isikhashana.
"Izingcezu zepulasitiki ezingase zibe zingamasentimitha amaningi ziba brittle lapho zivezwa ukukhanya kwelanga, bese zibhidliza izinhlayiya ezincane zepulasitiki ezincane, esizibiza nge-microplastic." - UCarlos Duarte, uthe umlobi we-Study Comlan Chris Money weWashington Post. "Le nqubo ithatha iminyaka eminingana kuya emashumini eminyaka. Ngakho-ke uhlobo lwezinto ezibonakalayo esizibona lusikisela ukuthi lwangena olwandle amashumi eminyaka edlule. "
Ngokusho kukaSchlossberg, amathani ayizigidi eziyi-8 epulasitiki angena olwandle minyaka yonke, futhi namhlanje amathani acishe abe yizigidi eziyi-110 epulasitiki aqongelela emanzini omhlaba. Ngenkathi imfucuza yepulasitiki emanzi e-arctic ingaphansi kwamaphesenti athile aphelele, uDuarte watshela uMuni ukuthi ukunqwabelana imfucuza yepulasitiki e-Arctic kusanda kuqala. Iminyaka engamashumi eminyaka yepulasitiki evela empumalanga ye-US naseYurophu isesendleleni futhi ekugcineni izogcina e-Arctic.
Abaphenyi bakhombe ama-Gyres ambalwa aphansi olwandle emhlabeni lapho ama-microplastics evame ukuqongelela. Manje okukhathazayo ukuthi i-Arctic izojoyina lolu hlu. "Le ndawo ukuphela okufile, imisinga yolwandle ishiya imfucumfucu ebusweni," kusho umlobi wabambisana ndawonye uMaria-Luise Pedrotti ekukhishweni kwabezindaba. "Kungenzeka sibonakalisa ukwakheka kwenye indawo yokugcwaliswa komhlaba ngaphandle kokuqonda ngokugcwele ubungozi kumaflora asendaweni nezilwane."
Yize eminye imibono ye-pie-in-the-sky yokuhlanza imfucumfucu yolwandle kusuka kupulasitiki njengamanje iyahlolwa, ikakhulukazi iphrojekthi yokuhlanza olwandle, abacwaningi baphothule ekukhishweni kwabezindaba ukuthi isixazululo esihle kakhulu sokusebenza kanzima ukuvikela ukubukeka okunzima kakhulu ukuvikela ukubukeka kwepulasitiki kuqala. Olwandle.
