Koho lima kā mākou limahana akamai a lanakila i nā makana i nā huahana a mākou e uhi nei a noiʻi pono a hoʻāʻo i nā mea maikaʻi loa. Inā kūʻai ʻoe ma o kā mākou mau loulou, hiki iā mākou ke loaʻa i kahi komisina. ʻŌlelo Hoʻokō Manaʻo
Hiki i kekahi mau huaʻai a me nā mea kanu ke loaʻa nā pesticides a me nā kemika, no laila e ʻōlelo pinepine ʻia e holoi hou i kēia mau huahana ma mua o ka ʻai ʻana.
ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka holoi ʻana i nā mea kanu ma mua o ka ʻai ʻana e wehe i ka lepo, ka bacteria a me ke koena o nā pesticides.
I ka wā e pili ana i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu, ʻo ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo mua hiki iā mākou ke hāʻawi aku, ʻo ia ka holoi ʻana iā lākou. Inā kūʻai ʻoe i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu hou mai kahi hale kūʻai meaʻai, kahi mahiʻai kūloko, a i ʻole ka ʻāpana organik o ka hale kūʻai nui, he manaʻo maikaʻi e holoi iā lākou inā loaʻa iā lākou nā pesticides a i ʻole nā kemika ʻē aʻe e hiki ke hoʻopilikia i kou olakino. Hōʻike ka hapa nui o nā hōʻike he palekana loa nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu i kūʻai ʻia ma nā hale kūʻai meaʻai no ka ʻai ʻana o ke kanaka a he liʻiliʻi wale nō ka nui o nā kemika.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka manaʻo o nā pesticides a i ʻole nā kemika i kāu meaʻai e hopohopo paha iā ʻoe. Akā, mai hopohopo: ʻO ka USDAMea pepehi lāʻau makeUa ʻike ʻia e ka Polokalamu ʻIkepili (PDF) ua ʻoi aku ma mua o 99 pakeneka o nā meaʻai i hoʻāʻo ʻia ua kūlike i nā kūlana i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e ka Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a he 27 pakeneka ʻaʻohe koena pesticide iki.
I mea e maopopo ai, ua maikaʻi kekahi mau kemika a me nā pesticides ke loaʻa nā koena. Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole nā kemika āpau he mea ʻino, no laila mai hopohopo i ka manawa aʻe e poina ai ʻoe e holoi i kāu mau huaʻai a me nā mea kanu. E maikaʻi ʻoe, a he haʻahaʻa loa ka manawa e maʻi ai. ʻOiai kēlā, aia kekahi mau pilikia ʻē aʻe e hopohopo ai, e like me nā pōʻino bacteria a me nā kīnā e like me salmonella, listeria, E. coli, a me nā germs mai nā lima o haʻi.
ʻOi aku ka nui o nā koena pesticides mau i kekahi mau ʻano huaʻai ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe. No ke kōkua ʻana i nā mea kūʻai e ʻike i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu i haumia loa, ua paʻi ka Environmental Working Group, kahi hui palekana meaʻai waiwai ʻole, i kahi papa inoa i kapa ʻia ʻo "Dirty Dozen." Ua nānā ka hui i 47,510 mau laʻana o 46 mau ʻano huaʻai a me nā mea kanu i hoʻāʻo ʻia e ka US Food and Drug Administration a me ka US Department of Agriculture, e ʻike ana i nā mea i loaʻa nā pae kiʻekiʻe loa o nā pesticides i ka wā i kūʻai ʻia aku ai.
Akā, ʻo wai ka hua i loaʻa ka nui o nā koena pesticide, e like me kahi noiʻi hou na The Dirty Dozen? ʻO nā ʻōpena. He mea paʻakikī paha ke manaʻoʻiʻo, akā ʻo ka nui o nā kemika i loaʻa i loko o kēia hua kaulana i ʻoi aku ma mua o nā huaʻai a mea kanu ʻē aʻe i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka loiloi.
Ma lalo nei e ʻike ʻoe i nā meaʻai he 12 i loaʻa nui nā pesticides a me nā meaʻai he 15 i emi loa ka haumia.
He hōʻailona maikaʻi ka Dirty Dozen e hoʻomanaʻo i nā mea kūʻai aku i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu e pono e holoi pono ʻia. Hiki i ka holoi wikiwiki ʻana me ka wai a i ʻole ka pīpī ʻana o ka detergent ke kōkua.
Hiki nō hoʻi iā ʻoe ke pale aku i nā pilikia he nui ma ke kūʻai ʻana i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu organik i hōʻoia ʻia (i ulu ʻia me ka ʻole o ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā pesticides mahiʻai). ʻO ka ʻike ʻana i nā meaʻai i ʻoi aku ka nui o nā pesticides e hiki ke kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻoholo i kahi e hoʻolilo ai i kāu kālā keu ma nā huahana organik. E like me kaʻu i aʻo ai i ke kālailai ʻana i nā kumukūʻai o nā meaʻai organik a me nā mea ʻole organik, ʻaʻole lākou i kiʻekiʻe e like me kou manaʻo.
ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka loaʻa ʻana o nā pesticides ʻino i loko o nā huahana me nā uhi pale kūlohelohe.
ʻO ka laʻana Clean 15 ka mea haʻahaʻa loa o ka haumia pesticides o nā laʻana āpau i hoʻāʻo ʻia, akā ʻaʻole ia manaʻo ua kaʻawale loa lākou mai ka haumia pesticides. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole ia manaʻo ʻaʻohe haumia bacteria nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu āu e lawe mai ai i ka home. Ma ke ʻano helu, ʻoi aku ka palekana o ka ʻai ʻana i nā huaʻai i holoi ʻole ʻia mai ka Clean 15 ma mua o ka Dirty Dozen, akā he lula maikaʻi nō naʻe ka holoi ʻana i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu āpau ma mua o ka ʻai ʻana.
ʻEono ana nā ana o ka haumia pesticides i loko o ke ʻano hana a EWG. Ke nānā nei ka loiloi i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu i loaʻa i hoʻokahi a ʻoi aku paha nā pesticides, akā ʻaʻole ia e ana i ka pae o kekahi pesticides i loko o kahi huahana kikoʻī. Hiki iā ʻoe ke heluhelu hou aʻe e pili ana i ka noiʻi Dirty Dozen a EWG ma aneʻi.
No nā hāpana hoʻāʻo i kālailai ʻia, ua ʻike ʻo EWG he 95 pakeneka o nā hāpana ma ka māhele huaʻai a me nā mea kanu "Dirty Dozen" i uhi ʻia me nā fungicides hiki ke hōʻino. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, kokoke i 65 pakeneka o nā hāpana ma nā māhele huaʻai a me nā mea kanu maʻemaʻe ʻaʻohe fungicides hiki ke ʻike ʻia.
Ua ʻike ka Pūʻulu Hana Kaiapuni i kekahi mau pesticides i ka wā e kālailai ana i nā hāpana hoʻāʻo a ua ʻike ʻia he ʻehā o nā pesticides ʻelima maʻamau he mau fungicides weliweli: fludioxonil, pyraclostrobin, boscalid a me pyrimethanil.
