Wahi a ka Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), aia wale nō ke palekana ka meaʻai e hiki ai iā mākou ke pōmaikaʻi piha mai kona waiwai ʻai a mai nā pono noʻonoʻo a me ka pilikanaka o ka ʻai ʻana i kahi meaʻai palekana.
"ʻO nā meaʻai palekana ke kumu o nā maʻi he nui a kōkua i nā kūlana olakino maikaʻi ʻole, e like me ka ulu ʻana a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana, nā micronutrient deficiencies, noncommunicable a i ʻole communicable maʻi a me ka maʻi noʻonoʻo," wahi a FAO.
ʻO ka maʻi hiki ke pale ʻia
Hoʻopilikia ʻia nā maʻi i lawe ʻia i ka meaʻai i hoʻokahi ma 10 poʻe ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa i kēlā me kēia makahiki, mai ka maʻi maʻi a hiki i nā maʻi maʻi. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, hiki ke pale ʻia ka hapa nui.
ʻO ke ʻano o kā mākou kūkulu ʻana i nā ʻōnaehana meaʻai a me nā kaulahao hoʻolako e hiki ke pale i nā pōʻino infectious a me nā mea ʻawaʻawa, a me nā microbial pathogens (bacteria, viruses and parasites), koena kemika, a me nā biotoxins, mai ka hiki ʻana i kā mākou papa.
"Pono mākou e hoʻololi i nā ʻōnaehana meaʻai e hāʻawi i ke olakino maikaʻi, a pono mākou e hana pēlā ma ke ʻano hoʻomau," wahi a FAO. "Pono nā mea hana kulekele ʻōnaehana meaʻai, nā loea a me nā mea hoʻopukapuka e hoʻohuli hou i kā lākou mau hana e hoʻonui i ka hana hoʻomau a me ka ʻai ʻana i nā meaʻai palekana."
Ua hoʻomanaʻo pū ka UN UN i nā loli ʻōnaehana no ke olakino maikaʻi e alakaʻi i ka meaʻai palekana - kahi mea koʻikoʻi o ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka wā lōʻihi a he mea pono e hoʻokō i ka Nā Pahuhopu Mau Loa (Nā SDG).
Aole anei oukou i ike?
- ʻO ka meaʻai palekana ʻole i loaʻa i nā hua bacteria ʻino, nā maʻi ʻino, nā parasites a i ʻole nā mea kemika ke kumu i ʻoi aku ma mua o 200 mau maʻi.
- Hōʻike nā manaʻo kuhi i ka hopena o ka meaʻai palekana ʻole ke kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa a me ka loaʻa kālā waena ma kahi o $95 biliona i nalowale i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
- ʻO nā hana hoʻomaʻemaʻe maikaʻi i nā ʻāpana meaʻai a me nā ʻoihana mahiʻai e kōkua i ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka puka ʻana a me ka hoʻolaha ʻana o nā maʻi lawe ʻai.
Nā ʻanuʻu i ke olakino
Ka Honua Health World (WHO) ua kāhea aku i kahi pūʻulu o nā hana kikoʻī ma nā ʻāpana he nui i mea e palekana ai ka meaʻai, e hoʻomaka ana me nā hana kulekele e hoʻoikaika i nā ʻōnaehana palekana meaʻai a me ka hōʻoia ʻana i ka mālama ʻana i nā kūlana palekana meaʻai.
Pono kēia i ka launa pū ʻana ma nā pae kūloko, aupuni, kūloko a me ka honua.
Pono nā ʻoihana meaʻai e hoʻokō i nā kūlana meaʻai honua a hoʻopili i nā limahana, nā mea hoʻolako, a me nā mea kuleana ʻē aʻe e ulu a hoʻomohala i kahi moʻomeheu palekana meaʻai..
I ka manawa like, pono nā ʻoihana hoʻonaʻauao a me nā wahi hana e hāpai i ka mālama ʻana i ka meaʻai palekana a kākoʻo i ka palekana meaʻai.
ʻO nā hoa pili i ke olakino
Mai ka makahiki 2018 i ka wā i hoʻokumu ai ka General Assembly i ka lā, FAO a WHO ua hoʻoikaika pū i kāna mālama ʻana, me ka hui pū ʻana me nā Moku'āina lālā a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Hoʻopuka ka FAO i nā pilikia palekana meaʻai ma ke kaulahao meaʻai i ka wā o ka hana ʻana a me ka hoʻoili ʻana, ʻoiai ʻo WHO e kiaʻi mau i nā pilina i loko o ka ʻoihana olakino lehulehu.
Hiki mai ka World Food Safety Day 2022 he ʻumi mau lā ma hope o ka hoʻokomo ʻia ʻana o ka mea hou WHO Global Strategy for Food Safety, he mea nui i ka hana e hāpai i ke olakino, mālama i ka honua a palekana i ka poʻe nāwaliwali.
