I-EPA Imemezela “Inselelo Yomoya Ohlanzekile Ezakhiweni” Ukusiza Abanikazi Bomakhiwo Nabasebenzi Ukuthuthukisa Ikhwalithi Yomoya Wasendlini Nokuvikela Impilo Yomphakathi

Namuhla, njengengxenye yoHlelo Lukazwelonke Lokulungela I-COVID-19 lukaMongameli u-Biden olukhishwe ngoMashi 3, i-US Environmental Protection Agency ikhipha i-“Clean Air in Buildings Challenge,” ukubizela esenzweni kanye nesethi emfushane yezimiso nezinyathelo zokusiza abanikazi bezakhiwo. kanye nabaqhubi abanokunciphisa izingozi ezivela kumagciwane asemoyeni nokunye ukungcola ngaphakathi endlini.I-Clean Air in Buildings Challenge igqamisa uchungechunge lwezincomo nezinsiza ezitholakalayo zokusiza ekuthuthukiseni umoya ongenisa umoya kanye nekhwalithi yomoya wasendlini, engasiza ekuvikeleni kangcono impilo yabantu abahlala ezakhiweni futhi kwehlise ingcuphe yokusabalala kwe-COVID-19.

"Ukuvikela impilo yethu yomphakathi kusho ukuthuthukisa izinga lethu lomoya wasendlini. Namuhla, i-EPA ilandela uhlelo lukaMongameli Biden lokuqhubekisela isizwe sethu phambili ngendlela enempilo, esimeme njengoba silwa ne-COVID-19. Kuwo wonke lo bhubhane, abaphathi bezakhiwo nabasebenzi bezikhungo baye bebehamba phambili besebenzisa izindlela zokuvikela nokuthuthukisa izinga lomoya wasendlini ukuze kuncishiswe izingozi futhi kugcinwe abantu abahlala kuzo bephephile futhi benempilo, futhi sibonga kakhulu ngemizamo yabo,” kusho umqondisi we-EPA uMichael S. Regan. ingxenye ebalulekile yokusiza sonke ukuthi siphefumule kalula."

Izifo ezithathelanayo njenge-COVID-19 zingasakazeka ngokuhogela izinhlayiya ezisemoyeni nama-aerosol.Ngokungeziwe kwamanye amasu okuvimbela anezingqimba njengokugoma, izenzo zokuthuthukisa ukungena komoya, ukuhlunga namanye amaqhinga afakazelwe okuhlanza umoya kunganciphisa ingozi yokuchayeka ezinhlayiyeni, ama-aerosol, nokunye ukungcola, futhi kuthuthukise izinga lomoya wasendlini kanye nempilo yabakhileyo.

Izenzo ezibalulekile ezivezwe ku-Clean Air in Buildings Challenge zifaka:

· Dala uhlelo lwesenzo somoya ohlanzekile wasendlini,

· Lungiselela ukungena komoya omusha,

· Thuthukisa ukuhlunga komoya kanye nokuhlanza, futhi

· Ukuqhuba ukusebenzelana nomphakathi, ukuxhumana kanye nemfundo.

Nakuba izenzo ezinconyiwe zingakwazi ukuqeda ngokuphelele izingozi, zizozinciphisa.I-Clean Air in Buildings Challenge iveza izinketho nezinqubo ezingcono kakhulu zabanikazi bezakhiwo nabaqhubi abangakhetha kukho, futhi inhlanganisela engcono kakhulu yezenzo zesakhiwo izohluka ngendawo nendawo.Izinyathelo ezinjalo zizoncika ekuqondisweni kwezempilo yomphakathi;obani futhi bangaki abantu esakhiweni;imisebenzi eyenzeka esakhiweni;izinga lomoya wangaphandle;isimo sezulu;izimo zezulu;izinto ezifakiwe zokushisisa, zokungenisa umoya, nezomoya (HVAC);nezinye izici.Izimali ze-American Rescue Plan kanye ne-Bipartisan Infrastructure Law zingasetshenziswa ukwengeza ukutshalwa kwezimali ekungeneni komoya kanye nasekuthuthukisweni kwekhwalithi yomoya wasendlini ezindaweni zomphakathi.

I-EPA kanye Nethimba Le-White House COVID-19 Response Team lixoxisane neCenters for Disease Control, uMnyango Wezamandla, kanye nezinye izinhlaka zombuso ezimbalwa ezineqhaza ekuthuthukiseni izinga lomoya onempilo wasendlini ezakhiweni ukuze kuthuthukiswe i-Clean Air in Buildings Challenge.Isimemezelo sanamuhla siphinde sigqamise izinsiza eziningi zokusiza abanikazi bezakhiwo nabaqhubi ukuthi bahlangabezane nenselele.Umbhalo uzotholakala ngeSpanishi, isiShayina Esenziwe Lula, isiShayina Sendabuko, isiVietnam, isiKorea, isiTagalog, isi-Arabhu nesiRashiya.

I-Holtop isungulwe iminyaka engu-20 kusukela ngo-2002 kuya ku-2022, futhi inokuthuthukiswa okujulile ekwelapheni komoya, kanye nokuqamba okusha okuhola imboni.Imikhiqizo namasevisi e-Holtop asetshenziswa yonke indawo kuyo yonke indawo yokuphila komphakathi.Njalo ngonyaka sikhiqiza amayunithi angu-200,000 ama-ventilators okuvuselela ukushisa namandla, ama-air conditioner kanye nemikhiqizo yokuvikela imvelo.Ngokwesimemezelo se-EPA, iphakamisa ukuthi umhlali kumele aqhubeke ethuthukisa umoya omusha futhi athuthukise ukuhlungwa komoya kanye nokuhlanza igumbi.I-Holtop esekelwe esidingweni semakethe ithuthukise ama-ventilator amaningi asekhaya okubuyisela ukushisa, njengama-ventilators afakwe odongeni okubuyisela ukushisa, ama-ventilator ami aphansi okubuyisela ukushisa kanye nama-ventilators aqondile okubuyisela ukushisa.Ngezansi ezinye izici zalawa ma-ventilators amathathu okubuyisela ukushisa:
