Ukuqonda okubalulekile kwemakethe
Usayizi wemakethe yokuhlanza amanzi emhlabeni wonke wawungu-USD 43.21 billion ngo-2022 futhi kulindeleke ukuthi ukhule kusuka ku-USD 53.4 billion ngo-2024 uye ku-USD 120.38 billion ngo-2032, okubonisa i-CAGR engu-7.5% ngesikhathi sokubikezela.
Usayizi wemakethe yezihlanzi zamanzi zase-US wawungu-USD 5.85 billion ngo-2021 futhi kulindeleke ukuthi ukhule kusuka ku-USD 6.12 billion ngo-2022 uye ku-USD 9.10 billion ngo-2029 ku-CAGR engu-5.8% phakathi nesikhathi sika-2022-2029. Umthelela womhlaba wonke we-COVID-19 wawungakaze ubonwe futhi umangalisa, lapho le mikhiqizo ibhekene nokushaqeka kwesidingo okuphansi kunalokho obekulindelwe kuzo zonke izifunda uma kuqhathaniswa namazinga angaphambi kobhubhane. Ngokwesisekelo sokuhlaziywa kwethu, ngo-2020, imakethe ibonise ukwehla okukhulu ngo-4.5%% uma kuqhathaniswa no-2019.
Izinhlelo zokuhlanza amanzi ziye zathola ukuthandwa ezweni ngenxa yokusetshenziswa kwemali okuphezulu kanye nezinhlelo zokuqwashisa ezenziwa yizikhungo ezifana ne-WHO kanye ne-US EPA. I-US ithole amanzi ikakhulukazi emifuleni noma emifuleni emikhulu. Kodwa ukwanda kokungcola kwalezi zinsiza ngemuva kwenguquko yezimboni kuye kwaphoqa ukusetshenziswa kwezinhlelo zokwelapha ukuze kuvikelwe impilo yezakhamuzi. Imithombo yokuhlunga isusa ukungcola emanzini angavuthiwe futhi iwenze abe yikhwalithi engcono.
Abantu base-US baya ngokuya beqaphela impilo yabo futhi sebeqale imikhuba yokuphuza njalo ukuze basekele ukusebenza kahle kwezinhlelo ezibalulekile. Ukwamukelwa okwandayo kwezinhlelo zokusebenza zezempilo ezisiza ekulawuleni imikhuba efanele yokuphuza ezitolo zezinhlelo zokusebenza eziyinhloko kuwubufakazi balo mkhuba, Njengoba amanzi ahlanzekile enikeza izinzuzo eziningi, abathengi baphendukele kubakhiqizi bezihlanzi zamanzi ukuze bamise izinhlelo zokuhlanza ezindaweni zokuhlala nasezindaweni zezentengiselwano ukuqinisekisa ukutholakala okuhlanzekile njalo.
Ukuphazamiseka Kwezindlela Zokuphakelwa Nokukhiqiza Phakathi Kwe-COVID-19 Nokukhula Okuphansi Kwemakethe
Nakuba imboni yokuhlunga amanzi ingaphansi kwezinsizakalo ezibalulekile, ukuphazamiseka kochungechunge lokuhlinzekwa kwempahla okwenzeke phakathi ne-COVID-19 kuthinte kakhulu ukukhula kwemakethe yomhlaba wonke. Ukuvalwa okuqhubekayo noma okuyingxenye emazweni abalulekile okukhiqiza kubangele ukumiswa kokukhiqiza kwesikhashana kanye noshintsho kumashejuli okukhiqiza. Isibonelo, i-Pentair PLC, umhlinzeki ohamba phambili wezinhlelo zokuhlanza amanzi, ibhekane nokwehla kokukhiqiza kanye nokumiswa kokusebenza ngenxa yemiyalelo 'yokuhlala endaweni' evela kuhulumeni. Kodwa-ke, ngokusetshenziswa kwezinhlelo zokuqhubeka kwebhizinisi kanye namasu okunciphisa asetshenziswa abakhiqizi kanye nabasabalalisi besigaba 1, 2 kanye ne-3, imakethe yomhlaba wonke kulindeleke ukuthi ilulame ngesivinini esincane eminyakeni ezayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuze kuqinisekiswe amayunithi okukhiqiza amancane naphakathi, ohulumeni bezifunda bashintsha izinqubomgomo zemali mboleko futhi basekela ukuphathwa kwemali. Isibonelo, ngokusho kwe-Water World Magazine, ngo-2020, cishe ama-44% amalungu okukhiqiza e-Water and Wastewater Equipment Manufacturers Association (WWEMA) kanye nama-60% amalungu amele i-WWEMA asebenzisa ithuba le-federal Payroll Protection Program e-US.
UMTHELELA WE-COVID-19
Ukwaziswa Kwabathengi Ngamanzi Okuphuza Ahlanzekile Ukuthuthukisa Imakethe Ngesikhathi Se-COVID-19
Nakuba i-US yonke yayingekho ngaphansi kwemithetho eqinile yokuvalelwa ngesikhathi sobhubhane, izifundazwe eziningi zazikhawulele ukuthuthwa kwamadoda nezinto zokwakha ngokufanayo. Njengoba ukuhlanzwa kuyimboni edinga abasebenzi abaningi, ubhubhane lwaholela ekuphazamisekeni okukhulu kochungechunge lokuhlinzekwa kwempahla, Njengoba izinkampani eziningi zingenisa izihlungi ezivela emazweni ase-Asia, ukushoda kwezinto zokwakha, okwaphindeka kabili kanye nokushoda kwabasebenzi ngenxa yezizathu zezempilo, kwabonakala kulo lonke izwe. Izinkampani eziningi azikwazanga ukufeza ama-oda akhona ngesikhathi ngenxa yokwehluleka kwempahla. Lokhu kwaholela ekutheni zibhekane nobunzima bemali phakathi naleso sikhathi, okuthinta amandla azo okukhula. Kodwa-ke, ukuqedwa kancane kancane kokuvalelwa kanye nokumenyezelwa kwemboni 'okubalulekile' kwaholela ezinkampanini ukuthi ziqale kabusha imisebenzi yazo. Izinkampani eziningi zathatha isu lokukhangisa izinzuzo zamanzi ahlanzekile kulo bhubhane, ngaleyo ndlela zithuthukisa ukuqwashisa kwabathengi mayelana nezinzuzo zeminikelo yazo.
Lo mkhuba unikeze imakethe amandla, okuyinto ethinteke kakhulu ngonyaka odlule.
