00:00:00.315 --> 00:00:02.572
Nilikuwa na miaka 10

00:00:02.572 --> 00:00:04.271
katika tukiwa safari ya kambi na baba yangu

00:00:04.271 --> 00:00:07.031
Katika milima ya Adirondack, eneo la nyika

00:00:07.031 --> 00:00:10.026
Kaskazini mwa jimbo la New York.

00:00:10.026 --> 00:00:11.467
Ilikuwa ni siku nzuri sana.

00:00:11.467 --> 00:00:13.469
Msitu ulikuwa unang'aa.

00:00:13.469 --> 00:00:16.993
Jua lilifanya majani yawake kama kioo,

00:00:16.993 --> 00:00:20.198
na kama si kwa njia tuliyofuata,

00:00:20.198 --> 00:00:21.602
tungejifanya kama

00:00:21.602 --> 00:00:25.164
wanadamu wa kwanza kupita eneo lile.

NOTE Paragraph

00:00:25.164 --> 00:00:26.815
tukafika katka eneo letu la kufanyia kambi.

00:00:26.815 --> 00:00:28.782
ilikuwa ni eneo

00:00:28.782 --> 00:00:31.478
linalotazama ziwa zuri sana,

00:00:31.478 --> 00:00:34.174
nilipogundua kitu kibaya.

00:00:34.174 --> 00:00:37.272
nyuma ya eneo hilo kulikuwa na dampo

00:00:37.272 --> 00:00:38.730
kama futi za mraba 40

00:00:38.730 --> 00:00:41.043
likiwa na matufaa yaliyooza

00:00:41.043 --> 00:00:42.790
na makaratasi ya madini ya aluminium

00:00:42.790 --> 00:00:44.539
na vitu vilivyokufa,

00:00:44.539 --> 00:00:47.110
nilishangazwa sana,

00:00:47.110 --> 00:00:50.542
niliingiwa na hasira, na kuchanganyikiwa pia.

00:00:50.542 --> 00:00:52.124
Wapiga kambi wazembe

00:00:52.124 --> 00:00:54.082
walioshindwa kuchukua vile walivyokuja navyo,

00:00:54.082 --> 00:00:57.927
walifikiri ni nani atakayesafisha kama si wao?

NOTE Paragraph

00:00:57.927 --> 00:00:59.836
Swali hili lilikaa ndani yangu,

00:00:59.836 --> 00:01:01.803
lilirahisishwa kidogo.

00:01:01.803 --> 00:01:04.179
nani atakayesafisha baada yetu?

00:01:04.179 --> 00:01:05.601
vyovyote utakavyofanya

00:01:05.601 --> 00:01:07.308
au popote utakapotuweka,

00:01:07.308 --> 00:01:09.898
nani takayesafisha baada yetu Instanbul?

00:01:09.898 --> 00:01:12.154
nani takayesafisha baada yetu Rio?

00:01:12.154 --> 00:01:14.683
au Paris na London?

00:01:14.683 --> 00:01:16.255
Hapa New York,

00:01:16.255 --> 00:01:18.847
Idara ya Usafi wa mazingira inasafisha baada yetu,

00:01:18.847 --> 00:01:21.517
kiasi cha tani 11,000 za uchafu

00:01:21.517 --> 00:01:25.879
na tani 2000 za uchafu wa kuchakatwa kila siku.

00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:28.512
nilitaka niwajue kama watu binafsi.

00:01:28.512 --> 00:01:31.358
nilitaka kujua nani anyefanya kazi hii.

00:01:31.358 --> 00:01:33.877
inakuwaje kuvaa sare

00:01:33.877 --> 00:01:35.531
na kuchukua mzigo huo?

NOTE Paragraph

00:01:35.531 --> 00:01:38.184
kwa hiyo nikaazisha utafiti nao.

00:01:38.184 --> 00:01:40.723
nilipanda magari yao na nikaanza kuzunguka nao

00:01:40.723 --> 00:01:43.132
nikawahoji watu katika ofisi na maeneo mengine

00:01:43.132 --> 00:01:44.639
kila sehemu ya mji,

00:01:44.639 --> 00:01:46.378
nilijifunza mengi,

00:01:46.378 --> 00:01:48.727
lakini bado nilikuwa mtu wa nje tu.

00:01:48.727 --> 00:01:50.605
nilitaka kujua zaidi.

NOTE Paragraph

00:01:50.605 --> 00:01:53.721
kwa hiyo niomba kazi ya usafi wa mazingira.

00:01:53.721 --> 00:01:56.368
sikupanda tu magari tena. bali niliyaendesha.

00:01:56.368 --> 00:01:59.513
nikatumia mafagio ya kwenye magari na nikawa nakusanya barafu.

00:01:59.513 --> 00:02:01.412
ilikuwa ni neema ya ajabu

00:02:01.412 --> 00:02:04.019
na elimu moja ya ajabu sana.

NOTE Paragraph

00:02:04.019 --> 00:02:06.171
kila mtu anauliza juu ya harufu.

00:02:06.171 --> 00:02:09.231
ipo,lakini si kama kali unavyofikiri,

00:02:09.231 --> 00:02:10.745
na katika siku ambazo inakuwa kali sana,

00:02:10.745 --> 00:02:13.421
unaizoe mara moja.

00:02:13.421 --> 00:02:16.618
uzito unachukua muda kuuzoea.

00:02:16.618 --> 00:02:18.905
Niliwafahamu watu waliokuwa katika kazi miaka kadhaa

00:02:18.905 --> 00:02:21.490
ambao miili yao ilikuwa inaendelea kuzoea

00:02:21.490 --> 00:02:23.571
mzigo huo katika miili yao

00:02:23.571 --> 00:02:26.550
tani za uchafu kila wiki.

NOTE Paragraph

00:02:26.550 --> 00:02:28.734
halafu pia kuna hatari.

00:02:28.734 --> 00:02:31.206
Kulingana na idara ya takwimu za kazi,

00:02:31.206 --> 00:02:33.408
Kazi ya usafi wa mazingira ni moja kati ya kazi 10 za hatari sana

00:02:33.408 --> 00:02:35.300
Katika nchi,

00:02:35.300 --> 00:02:37.051
na nilijifunza kwa nini.

00:02:37.051 --> 00:02:38.472
Uko katika foleni kila siku,

00:02:38.472 --> 00:02:39.433
inakuzunguka

00:02:39.433 --> 00:02:41.317
wanataka kukupita, kwa hiyo

00:02:41.317 --> 00:02:43.367
madereva hawajali.

00:02:43.367 --> 00:02:45.193
hii ni mbaya sana kwa mfanyakazi.

00:02:45.193 --> 00:02:47.353
na uchafu wenyewe umejaa sumu nyingi

00:02:47.353 --> 00:02:49.372
ambao unaruka nje ya gari

00:02:49.372 --> 00:02:51.453
na kusababisha madhara.

NOTE Paragraph

00:02:51.453 --> 00:02:54.268
nikajifunza pia uking'ang'ani wa taka

00:02:54.268 --> 00:02:55.579
unapushuka

00:02:55.579 --> 00:02:58.428
na kuuangalia mji kutokea kwenye gari la taka,

00:02:58.428 --> 00:03:00.214
unaelewa kuwa taka

00:03:00.214 --> 00:03:02.831
ni kama nguvu ya asili.

00:03:02.831 --> 00:03:05.287
haiachi kuja.

00:03:05.287 --> 00:03:08.766
na pia ni kama aina ya upumuaji au mzunguko.

00:03:08.766 --> 00:03:11.811
lazima iwe katika mwendo wakati wote.

NOTE Paragraph

00:03:11.811 --> 00:03:13.859
halafu tena kuna unyanyapaa.

00:03:13.859 --> 00:03:16.775
unavaa sare , unakuwa kama hauonekani

00:03:16.775 --> 00:03:19.079
mpaka mtu anapokasirishwa na kwa sababu kama

00:03:19.079 --> 00:03:21.394
umezuia magari kwa kutumia gari lako,

00:03:21.394 --> 00:03:24.045
au umepumzika karibu sana na nyumba yake,

00:03:24.045 --> 00:03:27.159
au unakunywa kahawa katika sehemu yao ya kulia chakula,

00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:29.569
watakuja na kukushutumu,

00:03:29.569 --> 00:03:32.831
na kukwambia hawatak kukuona karibu yao.

00:03:32.831 --> 00:03:35.263
unyanyapaa huu naona unashangaza sana,

00:03:35.263 --> 00:03:38.574
kwa sababu naamini kuwa wafanyakazi wa usafi wa mazingira

00:03:38.574 --> 00:03:40.254
ni wafanyakazi muhimu sana

00:03:40.254 --> 00:03:43.278
katika mitaa ya mji, kwa sababu tatu.

00:03:43.278 --> 00:03:46.060
wao ndio walinzi wa kwanza wa afya ya jamii.

00:03:46.060 --> 00:03:48.466
kama hawakusanyi taka

00:03:48.466 --> 00:03:50.740
kwa ufanisi na usahihi kila siku,

00:03:50.740 --> 00:03:53.451
zinaanza kutoka katika sehemu zilizotunzwa

00:03:53.451 --> 00:03:57.177
na madhara yake yanatutishia wote

00:03:57.177 --> 00:03:58.351
katika ya halisi kabisa.

00:03:58.351 --> 00:04:01.322
magonjwa tuliyoyadhibiti kwa miaka mingi

00:04:01.322 --> 00:04:04.228
yanaibuka tena na kutudhuru.

00:04:04.228 --> 00:04:05.900
Uchumi unahitaji wanyakazi hawa.

00:04:05.900 --> 00:04:08.826
Kama hatuwezi kutupa vitu vya zamani,

00:04:08.826 --> 00:04:10.716
hakuwezi kukawa na nafasi ya vitu vipya,

00:04:10.716 --> 00:04:12.785
kwa hiyo injini za uchumi

00:04:12.785 --> 00:04:15.714
zinashindwa kuendelea kwa kuwa hakuna matumizi

00:04:15.714 --> 00:04:19.778
Sipigii debe ubepari,lakini najaribu kuonyesha uhusiano uliopo.

00:04:19.778 --> 00:04:21.766
Lakini pia kuna kile nachoita

00:04:21.766 --> 00:04:25.978
na mwendo wa wastani wetu

00:04:25.978 --> 00:04:27.027
Na hii namaanisha

00:04:27.027 --> 00:04:29.279
ni haraka kiasi gani tumezoea kwenda

00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.411
katika siku hizi za sasa.

00:04:31.411 --> 00:04:36.755
Hatujali ,marekebisho,safi

00:04:36.755 --> 00:04:39.392
tulichochukua katika kikombe cha kahawa,

00:04:39.392 --> 00:04:40.877
chupa yetu ya maji.

00:04:40.877 --> 00:04:43.556
Tunatumia,tunatupa,tunazisahau,

00:04:43.556 --> 00:04:45.336
Kwa sababu tunajua kuna wafanyakazi

00:04:45.336 --> 00:04:48.356
upande wa pili wataochukua wote.

NOTE Paragraph

00:04:48.356 --> 00:04:50.803
Sasa nataka nitoe mapendekezo

00:04:50.803 --> 00:04:55.317
ya kufikiria kuhusu usafi ambayo

00:04:55.317 --> 00:04:57.791
yatapunguza unyanyapaa

00:04:57.791 --> 00:05:00.022
na kuwaingiza katika mazungumzo haya

00:05:00.022 --> 00:05:05.612
ya jinsi ya kuwa na mji unaokua kistaarabu.

00:05:05.612 --> 00:05:09.773
Kazi yao ni ile inayojirudia rudia.

00:05:09.773 --> 00:05:12.234
wako mitaani kila siku,

00:05:12.234 --> 00:05:14.295
Wakiwa na sare zao katika miji mingi

00:05:14.295 --> 00:05:16.164
Unajua wakati gani wa kuwategemea.

00:05:16.164 --> 00:05:20.087
Kazi yao inasabisha sisi pia tufanye kazi.

00:05:20.087 --> 00:05:22.878
Ni kama uhakikisho

00:05:22.878 --> 00:05:24.615
Ambao unaendelea

00:05:24.615 --> 00:05:26.605
kutufanya tuwe salama,

00:05:26.605 --> 00:05:29.242
mbali na uchafu wetu wenyewe

00:05:29.242 --> 00:05:32.500
na hali lazima iendelezwe kila wakati

00:05:32.500 --> 00:05:34.133
bila kujali chochote.

NOTE Paragraph

00:05:34.133 --> 00:05:37.857
Siku ya Septemba 11, 2001,

00:05:37.857 --> 00:05:41.144
Na nilisikia muungurumo wa gari la usafi mtaani,

00:05:41.144 --> 00:05:43.456
nikamchukua mwanangu mchanga na kukimbilia chini

00:05:43.456 --> 00:05:46.298
kulikuwa na mtu ambaye alikuwa anachakata karatasi

00:05:46.298 --> 00:05:48.480
kama afanyavyo kila Jumatano.

00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:50.900
Na nikawa najaribu kumshukuru kwa kazi yake

00:05:50.900 --> 00:05:53.025
katika siku hii,

00:05:53.025 --> 00:05:55.626
lakini nikaanza kulia.

00:05:55.626 --> 00:05:57.310
akaniangalia,

00:05:57.310 --> 00:06:00.734
akatingisha kichwa,akisema,

00:06:00.734 --> 00:06:03.612
"Tutakuwa salama.

00:06:03.612 --> 00:06:06.253
"Tutakuwa salama."

00:06:06.253 --> 00:06:07.606
Ilikuwa ni baadae nilipoanza

00:06:07.606 --> 00:06:08.986
utafiti wangu wa usafi wa mazingira,

00:06:08.986 --> 00:06:10.400
nikakutana na mtu yule tena.

00:06:10.400 --> 00:06:13.317
Jina lake ni Paulie,tulifanya kazi pamoja mara nyingi,

00:06:13.317 --> 00:06:15.140
tulikuwa marafiki wazuri.

NOTE Paragraph

00:06:15.140 --> 00:06:17.967
Nataka kuamini Paulie alikuwa sahihi.

00:06:17.967 --> 00:06:20.169
Kwamba tutakuwa salama.

00:06:20.169 --> 00:06:22.146
lakini katika jitahidi zetu za kutengeneza

00:06:22.146 --> 00:06:25.187
jinsi kama viumbe tutakavyoendelea kuishi katika dunia hii,

00:06:25.187 --> 00:06:28.482
lazima tuunganishe na kuangalia

00:06:28.482 --> 00:06:32.275
gharama zote, ikiwemo gharama

00:06:32.275 --> 00:06:33.779
za kazi.

00:06:33.779 --> 00:06:36.580
pia tutakuwa na taarifa

00:06:36.580 --> 00:06:38.798
za kuwafikia watu wanaofanya kazi hizo

00:06:38.798 --> 00:06:40.643
na kupata utaalam wao

00:06:40.643 --> 00:06:42.396
jinsi tunavyofikiri kuhusu,

00:06:42.396 --> 00:06:45.646
kutengeneza mifumo endelevu

00:06:45.646 --> 00:06:49.125
ambayo inatuchukua kutoka katika uchakataji,

00:06:49.125 --> 00:06:51.710
ambao ni mafanikio makubwa katika miaka 40,

00:06:51.710 --> 00:06:54.948
Katika nchi yote ya Marekani, na nchi mbalimbali duniani kote,

00:06:54.948 --> 00:06:57.750
na kutupeleka juu zaidi

00:06:57.750 --> 00:07:00.636
ambako tutaangalia aina nyingine za uchafu

00:07:00.636 --> 00:07:02.121
ambazo zinaweza zikapunguzwa

00:07:02.121 --> 00:07:04.854
kutoka viwandani.

00:07:04.854 --> 00:07:08.859
uchafu katika miji, jinsi tunavyofikiri tunapoongelea uchafu,

00:07:08.859 --> 00:07:12.857
unakaribia asilimia tatu ya uchafu wote katika taifa

00:07:12.857 --> 00:07:15.244
ni takwimu za kushangaza.

NOTE Paragraph

00:07:15.244 --> 00:07:17.722
katika siku zako,

00:07:17.722 --> 00:07:19.248
katika maisha yako,

00:07:19.248 --> 00:07:22.276
utakapomwona mtu ambaye kazi yake ni

00:07:22.276 --> 00:07:25.419
kufanya usafi,

00:07:25.419 --> 00:07:27.908
chukua muda kuwatambua.

00:07:27.908 --> 00:07:32.500
chukua muda wako kuwashukuru.

NOTE Paragraph

00:07:32.500 --> 00:07:35.854
(Makofi)
