He mea kākau kūʻokoʻa ʻo Mackenzie Nichols i mea loea i ka māla a me ka nūhou.He loea ʻo ia i ke kākau ʻana e pili ana i nā mea kanu hou, nā ʻano mahiʻai, nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a me nā hoʻopunipuni, nā ʻano leʻaleʻa, Q&A me nā alakaʻi o ka ʻoihana ʻoliʻoli a me ka mahiʻai, a me nā ʻano o ka nohona o kēia mau lā.Loaʻa iā ia ma mua o 5 mau makahiki o ka ʻike kākau ʻatikala no nā puke nui.
Ua ʻike paha ʻoe i kēia mau ʻāpana ʻōmaʻomaʻo, i kapa ʻia ʻo ka pua pua a i ʻole nā oases, i ka hoʻonohonoho pua ma mua, a ua hoʻohana paha ʻoe iā ʻoe iho e mālama i nā pua.ʻOiai ua puni ka pua pua no nā makahiki he nui, ua hōʻike ʻia nā haʻawina ʻepekema hou e hiki ke hōʻino i kēia huahana i ke kaiapuni.ʻO ka mea nui, ua wāwahi ia i microplastics, hiki ke hoʻohaumia i nā kumu wai a hoʻopōʻino i ke ola wai.Eia kekahi, hiki i ka lepo pua ke hoʻopilikia i ka hanu no nā kānaka.No kēia mau kumu, ua neʻe aku nā hanana pua nui e like me ka Royal Horticultural Society's Chelsea Flower Show a me ka Slow Flower Summit mai ka pua pua.Akā, ke huli nui nei nā mea kūʻai pua i nā mea ʻokoʻa pua pua no kā lākou hana.Eia ke kumu e hana pū ai ʻoe, a he aha kāu e hoʻohana ai ma kahi o ka hoʻonohonoho pua.
ʻO ka pua pua he mea māmā a hiki ke waiho ʻia ma lalo o nā ipu a me nā moku ʻē aʻe e hana i kumu no nā hoʻolālā pua.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Rita Feldman, ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu i ka Australia's Sustainable Flower Network: "No ka manawa lōʻihi, ua manaʻo nā mea kūʻai pua a me nā mea kūʻai aku he huahana kūlohelohe kēia ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo.".
ʻAʻole i hana mua ʻia nā huahana ʻōmaʻomaʻo no ka hoʻonohonoho pua, akā ʻo Vernon Smithers o Smithers-Oasis i patent iā lākou no kēia hoʻohana ʻana i nā makahiki 1950.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Feldmann, ua lilo koke ʻo Oasis Floral Foam i mea kaulana i nā mea kūʻai pua ʻoihana no ka mea he "maʻalahi loa a maʻalahi hoʻi e hoʻohana.ʻOki wale ʻoe, hoʻoinu i ka wai, a hoʻopaʻa i ke kumu i loko."i loko o nā pahu, e paʻakikī kēia mau ipu me ka ʻole o kahi kumu paʻa no nā pua."ʻO kāna mea hana i hana i nā hoʻonohonoho pua i hiki ke loaʻa i nā mea hoʻonohonoho ʻike ʻole i hiki ʻole ke loaʻa nā ʻōpala e noho ma kahi a lākou e makemake ai," wahi āna.
ʻOiai ua hana ʻia ka huʻa pua mai nā carcinogens i ʻike ʻia e like me ka formaldehyde, ʻo nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi wale nō o kēia mau mea ʻona i koe i loko o ka huahana i hoʻopau ʻia.ʻO ka pilikia nui me ka pua pua ka mea e hana ai ke kiola ʻoe.ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia ka foam, a ʻoiai he biodegradable ʻenehana, ua wāwahi maoli ia i loko o nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi i kapa ʻia nā microplastics hiki ke noho i loko o ke kaiapuni no nā haneli mau makahiki.Ke hopohopo nui nei ka poʻe ʻepekema e pili ana i nā pilikia olakino i ke kanaka a me nā mea ola ʻē aʻe i hana ʻia e nā microplastics i ka ea a me ka wai.
No ka laʻana, kahi noiʻi e RMIT University i paʻi ʻia ma 2019 ma Science of the Total Environment i ʻike ʻia no ka manawa mua e pili ana ka microplastics i ka pua pua i ke ola wai.Ua ʻike ka poʻe noiʻi i kēia mau microplastics i ke kino a me ke kemika i ka nui o nā ʻano wai maʻemaʻe a me nā ʻano kai e ʻai ana i nā ʻāpana.
ʻO kekahi noiʻi hou e nā ʻepekema ma ke Kula Lapaʻau ʻo Hull York i ʻike i nā microplastics i loko o nā māmā kanaka no ka manawa mua.Hōʻike nā hopena i ka inhalation o nā microplastics kahi kumu nui o ka ʻike.Ma waho aʻe o ka pua pua, ʻike ʻia nā microplastics airborne i nā huahana e like me nā ʻōmole, ka pahu, nā lole a me nā mea hoʻonaninani.Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole maopopo i ka hopena o kēia mau microplastics i ke kanaka a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe.
A hiki i ka hoʻohiki ʻana o ka noiʻi hou aʻe e hoʻomālamalama hou aku i ka pōʻino o ka pua pua a me nā kumu microplastics ʻē aʻe, hopohopo nā florists e like me Tobey Nelson o Tobey Nelson Events + Design, LLC e pili ana i ka hanu ʻana i ka lepo i hana ʻia i ka wā e hoʻohana ai i ka huahana.ʻOiai paipai ʻo Oasis i nā mea puaʻa e hoʻohana i nā masks pale i ka wā e lawelawe ai i nā huahana, ʻaʻole nui."Ke manaʻolana wale nei au i loko o 10 a 15 mau makahiki ʻaʻole lākou e kapa ʻia ʻo ia ka maʻi ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele a i ʻole kekahi mea e like me nā miners," wahi a Nelson.
ʻO ka hoʻokuʻu pono ʻana i ka pua pua hiki ke hele lōʻihi i ka pale ʻana i ka haumia o ka ea a me ka wai mai nā microplastics hou aʻe.Hoʻomaopopo ʻo Feldmann ma kahi noiʻi o nā mea kūʻai pua ʻoihana i mālama ʻia e ka Sustainable Floristry Network, 72 pakeneka o ka poʻe e hoʻohana ana i ka pua pua i ʻae i ka hoʻolei ʻana i lalo o ke kahawai ma hope o ka maloʻo ʻana o nā pua, a he 15 pakeneka i ʻōlelo ua hoʻohui lākou i kā lākou māla.a me ka lepo.Eia kekahi, "ke komo ka pua pua i loko o ke kaiapuni kūlohelohe ma nā ʻano like ʻole: kanu ʻia me nā pahu, ma o nā ʻōnaehana wai i loko o nā ipu, a hui pū ʻia me nā pua i nā ʻōnaehana ʻōpala ʻōmaʻomaʻo, nā māla a me nā compost," wahi a Feldman.
Inā pono ʻoe e hana hou i ka huʻa pua, ʻae ka poʻe akamai he ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻolei ʻana i loko o kahi ʻōpala ma mua o ka hoʻolei ʻana i lalo o ke kahawai a hoʻohui ʻia paha i ka compost a i ʻole ka ʻōpala pā hale.Manaʻo ʻo Feldman i ka ninini ʻana i ka wai i loko o nā ʻāpana pua pua, "e ninini i loko o kahi lole ʻeleʻele, e like me ka pahu uluna kahiko, e hopu i nā ʻāpana pua he nui."
Makemake paha ka poʻe Florist e hoʻohana i ka pua pua no kona kamaʻāina a me ka maʻalahi, wahi a Nelson."ʻAe, he mea maʻalahi ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i kahi ʻeke kūʻai hou i loko o ke kaʻa," wahi āna."Akā pono mākou a pau e neʻe aku mai ka noʻonoʻo ʻoluʻolu a loaʻa i ka wā e hiki mai ana i ka wā e hana nui ai mākou a hōʻemi i kā mākou hopena i ka honua."Ua hoʻohui ʻo Nelson ʻaʻole i ʻike ka nui o nā mea kūʻai aku aia nā koho ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.
Hāʻawi ʻo Oasis i kahi huahana compostable piha i kapa ʻia ʻo TerraBrick.ʻO ka huahana hou "i hana ʻia mai nā mea kanu, hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia, nā pulu niu maoli a me kahi mea hoʻopaʻa compostable."E like me ka Oasis Floral Foam, hoʻopili ʻo TerraBricks i ka wai e mālama i nā pua ma ka mālama ʻana i ka alignment kumu pua.A laila hiki ke hoʻohana pono ʻia nā hua niu a hoʻohana ʻia i loko o ka māla.ʻO kekahi ʻano hou hou ʻo ka Oshun Pouch, i hana ʻia ma 2020 e New Age Floral CEO Kirsten VanDyck.Hoʻopiha ʻia ka ʻeke me kahi mea compostable e pehu ana i ka wai a hiki ke kū i ka pahu pahu nui loa, wahi a VanDyck.
Nui nā ala ʻē aʻe e kākoʻo ai i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i nā pua, e like me nā rana pua, ka pā uwea, a me nā pōhaku hoʻonaninani a i ʻole nā peʻa i loko o nā ipu.A i ʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke noʻonoʻo me kāu mea ma ka lima, e like me ka hōʻike ʻana o VanDyck i kāna hoʻolālā ʻana i kāna hoʻolālā hoʻomau mua no ka Garden Club."Ma kahi o ka pua pua, ʻoki au i ka melika i ka hapalua a kanu i nā manu o ka paradaiso i loko."ʻAʻole lōʻihi ka lōʻihi o ka wai me ka pua pua, akā ʻo ia ke kumu.Wahi a VanDyck he mea maikaʻi loa ia no ka hoʻolālā ʻana i hoʻokahi lā wale nō.
Me ka nui aʻe o nā mea ʻē aʻe i loaʻa a me ka ʻike ʻana i nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole o ka pua pua, ʻike maopopo ʻia ka lele ʻana ma luna o ka bandwagon #nofloralfoam he mea noʻonoʻo ʻole.ʻO ia ke kumu, ʻoiai e hana ana ka ʻoihana pua e hoʻomaikaʻi i kona hoʻomau holoʻokoʻa, manaʻo ʻo TJ McGrath o TJ McGrath Design "ʻo ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka pua pua ka mea nui."
