Urunigi rwa supermarket Morrisons ruzamura igiciro cyimifuka ya plastiki yongeye gukoreshwa kuva 10p kugeza kuri 15p nkikigeragezo no kwerekana impapuro 20p.Imifuka yimpapuro izaboneka mububiko umunani murwego rwo kugerageza amezi abiri.Urunigi rwa supermarket rwavuze ko kugabanya plastike aribyo abakiriya babo bahangayikishijwe n’ibidukikije.
Imifuka yimpapuro ikomeje gukundwa muri Amerika, ariko ntiyakoreshejwe mumasoko manini yo mu Bwongereza mu myaka ya za 70 kuko plastiki yabonwaga nkibikoresho biramba.
Ariko ibikapu byimpapuro byangiza ibidukikije kuruta ibya plastiki?
Igisubizo kije kuri:
• ni imbaraga zingahe zikoreshwa mugukora igikapu mugihe cyo gukora?
• umufuka uramba?(ni ukuvuga kangahe ishobora kongera gukoreshwa?)
• byoroshye gute gusubiramo?
• ni kangahe ibora iyo itaye kure?
'Inshuro enye imbaraga'
Muri 2011impapuro z'ubushakashatsi zakozwe n'Inteko ya Irilande y'Amajyaruguruyavuze ko “bisaba ingufu zirenga enye imbaraga zo gukora umufuka w'impapuro nk'uko bikorwa mu gukora umufuka wa plastiki.”
Bitandukanye n’imifuka ya pulasitike (raporo ivuga ko ikomoka mu myanda yo gutunganya amavuta) impapuro zisaba amashyamba gutemwa kugirango atange imifuka.Uburyo bwo gukora, nk’uko ubushakashatsi bubyerekana, nabwo butanga urugero rwinshi rw’imiti y’ubumara ugereranije no gukora imifuka ya pulasitike imwe rukumbi.
Imifuka yimpapuro nayo ipima ibirenze plastiki;ibi bivuze ko ubwikorezi busaba imbaraga nyinshi, wongeyeho ibirenge bya karubone, ubushakashatsi bwongeyeho.
Morrisons avuga ko ibikoresho bikoreshwa mu gukora imifuka yimpapuro bizava mu 100% biva mu mashyamba acungwa neza.
Niba kandi amashyamba mashya ahingwa kugirango asimbuze ibiti byatakaye, ibi bizafasha gukuraho ingaruka z’imihindagurikire y’ikirere, kubera ko ibiti bifunga karubone mu kirere.
Mu mwaka wa 2006, Ikigo cy’ibidukikije cyasuzumye imifuka itandukanye ikozwe mu bikoresho bitandukanye kugira ngo imenye inshuro zigomba gukoreshwa kugira ngo hashobore kubaho ubushyuhe buke ku isi kuruta isakoshi isanzwe ikoreshwa rimwe.

Ubushakashatsiwasanze imifuka yimpapuro ikeneye gukoreshwa byibuze inshuro eshatu, imwe munsi yimifuka ya plastike mubuzima (inshuro enye).
Ku rundi ruhande rw’ikigereranyo, Ikigo cy’ibidukikije cyasanze imifuka y’ipamba isaba inshuro nyinshi gukoreshwa, kuri 131. Ibyo byari munsi y’ingufu nyinshi zikoreshwa mu gukora no gufumbira imyenda y’ipamba.
• Morrisons yo kugerageza imifuka yimpapuro 20p
• Kugenzura Ukuri: Amafaranga yimifuka ya plastike ajya he?
• Kugenzura Ukuri: Umusozi wa plastiki urihe?
Ariko nubwo umufuka wimpapuro usaba kwongera gukoreshwa haribintu bifatika: bizaramba bihagije kugirango urokoke byibuze ingendo eshatu zijya muri supermarket?
Imifuka yimpapuro ntabwo iramba nkimifuka yubuzima, birashoboka cyane gutandukana cyangwa kurira, cyane cyane iyo bitose.
Mu gusoza, Ikigo cy’ibidukikije kivuga ngo "ntibishoboka ko umufuka wimpapuro ushobora kongera gukoreshwa inshuro zisabwa bitewe nigihe kirekire".
Morrisons ashimangira ko nta mpamvu umufuka wimpapuro udashobora kongera gukoreshwa inshuro nyinshi nka plastiki isimbuza, nubwo biterwa nuburyo umufuka ufatwa.
Imifuka y'ipamba, nubwo ari karubone ikora cyane, iraramba kandi izagira ubuzima burebure.
Nubwo iramba rito, inyungu imwe yimpapuro nuko ibora vuba cyane kuruta plastiki, bityo rero ntibishoboka ko iba isoko yimyanda kandi ikabangamira inyamaswa.
Impapuro nazo zirashobora gukoreshwa cyane, mugihe imifuka ya pulasitike ishobora gufata imyaka iri hagati ya 400 na 1.000 kugirango ibore.
Niki cyiza kuruta ibindi?
Imifuka yimpapuro isaba gukoreshwa cyane kurenza imifuka yubuzima kugirango irusheho kubungabunga ibidukikije kuruta imifuka ya pulasitike imwe.
Kurundi ruhande, imifuka yimpapuro ntiramba kurenza ubundi bwoko bwimifuka.Niba rero abakiriya bagomba gusimbuza impapuro zabo kenshi, bizagira ingaruka zikomeye kubidukikije.
Margaret Bates, umwarimu w’imicungire irambye y’imyanda muri kaminuza ya Northampton, avuga ko ariko urufunguzo rwo kugabanya ingaruka z’imifuka yose itwara - uko yaba yarakozwe kose - ni ukongera kuyikoresha uko bishoboka kose.
Avuga ko abantu benshi bibagirwa kuzana imifuka yabo yongeye gukoreshwa mu rugendo rwabo rwa supermarket ya buri cyumweru, bikarangira bagomba kugura imifuka myinshi kugeza igihe.
Ibi bizagira ingaruka nini cyane kubidukikije ugereranije no guhitamo gukoresha impapuro, plastike cyangwa ipamba.
