Ua pūlima ʻia ka ʻaelike "historic" e 187 mau ʻāina. Hoʻonohonoho ka Basel Convention i nā lula no nā ʻāina mua o ka honua e lawe ana i nā ʻōpala pōʻino i nā ʻāina waiwai ʻole. ʻAʻole hiki i ka US a me nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe ke hoʻouna i nā ʻōpala palaka i nā ʻāina i komo i ka Basel Convention a ʻaʻole lākou he lālā o ka Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. E hoʻokō ʻia nā lula hou i hoʻokahi makahiki.
Ma mua o kēia makahiki, ua ho'ōki ʻo Kina i ka ʻae ʻana i ka hana hou ʻana mai ka US, akā ua alakaʻi kēia i ka piʻi ʻana o ka ʻōpala palaka ma nā ʻāina e ulu ana - mai ka ʻoihana meaʻai, ka ʻoihana inu, ke ʻano, ka ʻenehana a me ka mālama olakino. ʻO ka Global Alliance for Waste Incineration Alternatives (Gaia), ka mea i kākoʻo i ka ʻaelike, ua ʻōlelo lākou ua loaʻa iā lākou nā kauhale ma Indonesia, Thailand a me Malaysia i "huli ʻia i loko o hoʻokahi makahiki." "Ua loaʻa iā mākou nā ʻōpala mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e hōʻiliʻili wale nei i nā kauhale ma kēia mau ʻāina āpau i ʻoi aku ka nui o nā kaiāulu mahiʻai," wahi a Claire Arkin, he waha ʻōlelo no Gaia.
Ma hope o ia mau hōʻike, ua mālama ʻia kahi hālāwai ʻelua pule e pili ana i ka ʻōpala palaka a me nā mea ʻona e hoʻoweliweli i ke kai a me ke ola kai.
Ua kapa ʻia ʻo Rolf Payet o ka UN Environment Program i ka ʻaelike "historic" no ka mea e mālama pono nā ʻāina i kahi e hele ai ka ʻōpala plastik i ka wā e haʻalele ai i ko lākou mau palena. Ua hoʻohālikelike ʻo ia i ka pollution plastic i kahi "maʻi maʻi", e ʻōlelo ana ma kahi o 110 miliona tons o ka plastic i hoʻohaumia i ke kai, a ʻo 80% a 90% o ia mea mai nā kumu ʻāina.
Wahi a ka poʻe kākoʻo o ka ʻaelike e hoʻolilo ʻo ia i ke kālepa honua i ka ʻōpala plastik i ʻoi aku ka ʻike a hoʻoponopono maikaʻi ʻia, e pale ana i nā kānaka a me ke kaiapuni. Manaʻo nā luna i kēia holomua i ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻike lehulehu, i kākoʻo ʻia e nā palapala e pili ana i ka pōʻino o ka pollution plastic.
“ʻO kēlā mau kiʻi o nā moa albatross make ma nā mokupuni o ka Pākīpika me ka hāmama o ko lākou ʻōpū a me nā mea ʻilika a pau i ʻike ʻia i loko. A i kēia mau lā, i ka wā i ʻike ai mākou e hele maoli ana nā nanoparticles i ka pale koko-lolo, ua hiki iā mākou ke hōʻoiaʻiʻo aia i loko o mākou, "wahi a Paul Rose, ke alakaʻi o ka huakaʻi Primal Seas o National Geographic e pale i ke kai. ʻO nā kiʻi hou loa o nā koholā make me nā kilo ʻōpala plastik i loko o ko lākou ʻōpū ua hoʻopuʻihaʻi nui i ka lehulehu.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Marco Lambertini, Luna Hoʻokele o ke kaiapuni a me ke aloha holoholona hihiu WWF International, he mea hoʻokipa maikaʻi kēia kuʻikahi a no ka lōʻihi o nā ʻāina waiwai i hōʻole i ke kuleana no ka nui o ka ʻōpala palaka. “Akā naʻe, he ʻāpana wale nō kēia o ka huakaʻi. Pono mākou a me ko mākou honua i kuʻikahi holoʻokoʻa e lanakila ai i ka pilikia plastik honua, "wahi a Lambertini.
