Ingabe I-Shell Oil Izoba Umholi Wemboni Ekushajweni kwe-EV?

IShell, Total kanye ne-BP yizizwe ezintathu zikawoyela ezizinze e-Europe, ezaqala ukungena emdlalweni wokushaja i-EV ngo-2017, futhi manje sezikuzo zonke izigaba zochungechunge lwenani lokushaja.

Omunye wabadlali abakhulu emakethe yokushaja yase-UK yiShell. Eziteshini eziningi zikaphethiloli (ezibizwa nge-forecourts), iShell manje isihlinzeka ngokushaja, futhi maduze izokhipha ukushaja ezitolo ezinkulu ezingaba ngu-100.

Kubikwe i-Guardian, ukuthi uShell uhlose ukufaka izindawo zokushaja ezisemgwaqweni ezingu-50,000 e-UK eminyakeni emine ezayo. Lesi sikhondlakhondla sikawoyela sesivele sazuza indawo yonke, okugxile kakhulu ekuhlanganiseni ukushaja kwingqalasizinda yemigwaqo ekhona njengezigxobo zamalambu nama-bollards, isixazululo esingenza ubunikazi be-EV bukhange kakhulu kubahlali basemadolobheni abangenazo izindlela zokushayela ezizimele noma izindawo zokupaka ezinikeziwe.

Ngokwe-National Audit Office yase-UK, imindeni engaphezu kuka-60% yasemadolobheni e-England ayinayo indawo yokupaka ngaphandle komgwaqo, okusho ukuthi ayikho indlela engokoqobo yokuthi bafake ishaja yasekhaya. Isimo esifanayo sikhona ezifundeni eziningi, okuhlanganisa i-China nezingxenye ze-US.

E-UK, imikhandlu yasendaweni ivele njengento eyibhodlela lokufaka ukushaja komphakathi. AbakwaShell banohlelo lokubhekana nalokhu ngokunikela ngokukhokha izindleko zangaphambili zokufaka ezingafakwanga yizibonelelo zikahulumeni. IHhovisi likahulumeni wase-UK Lezimoto Ezikhipha I-Zero okwamanje likhokha kufikela ku-75% wezindleko zokufakwa kwamashaja omphakathi.

"Kubalulekile ukusheshisa ijubane lokufakwa kweshaja ye-EV kulo lonke elase-UK futhi le nhloso kanye nomnikelo wezimali kuklanyelwe ukusiza ukufeza lokho," uSihlalo wakwaShell UK uDavid Bunch etshela i-Guardian. "Sifuna ukunikeza abashayeli kulo lonke elase-UK izinketho zokushaja ze-EV, ukuze abashayeli abaningi bakwazi ukushintshela kugesi."

UNgqongqoshe Wezokuthutha e-UK u-Rachel Maclean ubize uhlelo lukaShell “njengesibonelo esihle sokuthi utshalomali oluzimele lusetshenziswa kanjani kanye nokwesekwa kukahulumeni ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi ingqalasizinda yethu ye-EV ifanele ikusasa.”

UShell usaqhubeka nokutshala imali emabhizinisini aphehla amandla ahlanzekile, futhi uzibophezele ukuthi uzokwenza ukuthi ukusebenza kwawo kungabi ne-net-zero-emissions ngo-2050. Kodwa-ke, ayikakhombisi inhloso yokuhlehlisa ukukhiqizwa kwayo kukawoyela negesi, kanti ezinye izishoshovu zezemvelo aziqinisekile. Muva nje, amalungu eqembu lezishoshovu ze-Extinction Rebellion abophe amaketanga futhi/noma anamathela ezindleleni zase-London's Science Museum ephikisana noxhaso lukaShell lombukiso omayelana namagesi abamba ukushisa.

“Sikuthola kungamukelekile ukuthi isikhungo sesayensi, isikhungo esikhulu samasiko njengeSayensi Museum, kufanele sithathe imali, imali engcolile, enkampanini kawoyela,” kusho uDkt Charlie Gardner, oyilungu leScientists for Extinction Rebellion. “Iqiniso lokuthi abakwaShell bayakwazi ukuxhasa lo mbukiso kubavumela ukuthi bazipende njengengxenye yesixazululo sokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu, kanti-ke yibona abawumgogodla wenkinga.”
