I a tātou e kōrero ana mō te whakamahinga whānui o te pepa parahi, me aro atu hoki tātou ki ōna pānga pea ki te taiao me te hauora. Ahakoa he huānga noa te parahi i roto i te kirinuku o te whenua, ā, he mea nui tana mahi i roto i ngā tukanga koiora maha, ko te nui rawa o te parahi, ko te whakahaere hē rānei, ka pā kino pea ki te taiao me te hauora.
Tuatahi, me titiro tātou ki te pānga ki te taiao opepa parahi. Mēnā kāore te pepa parahi e tika ana te whakahaere me te hangarua i muri i te whakamahinga, ka uru pea ki te taiao, ka uru ki roto i te mekameka kai mā roto i ngā puna wai me te oneone, ka pā ki te hauora o ngā tipu me ngā kararehe. Hei tāpiri, ko te tukanga hanga pepa parahi ka whakaputa i ētahi para me ngā tukunga, ki te kore e tika te whakahaere, ka kino pea ki te taiao.
Heoi, he mea tika kia mōhiotia he rauemi hangarua, he rauemi whakamahi anō hoki te parahi. Mā te hangarua me te whakamahi anō i te pepa parahi, ka taea e tātou te whakaiti i tōna pānga ki te taiao, me te penapena rauemi. He maha ngā kamupene me ngā whakahaere e whai ana ki te whakapai ake i ngā tere hangarua parahi, me te kimi i ngā tikanga hangarua pai ake mō te taiao hei whakaputa me te whakahaere i te pepa parahi.
Muri iho, me whakaaro tātou ki te pānga o te pepa parahi ki te hauora o te tangata. Ahakoa ko te parahi tētahi o ngā mea nui e hiahiatia ana e te tinana tangata, hei āwhina i te pupuri i ngā mahi noa o te tinana, ka taea e te nui o te parahi te arahi ki ngā raruraru hauora, tae atu ki te kino o te ate, o ngā whatukuhu rānei, ngā raruraru o te puku, ngā ānini, me te ngenge. Ko te tikanga ka puta noa ēnei raruraru i muri i te roa o te wā e pāngia ana e te nui rawa o te parahi.
I tētahi atu taha, tera pea ka pā pai te whakamahi i te pepa parahi ki te hauora. Hei tauira, ko te whakamahinga o te pepa parahi i roto i ētahi hua hauora, pērā i ngā whāriki yoga me ngā poroporo ringaringa, me te whakapono a ētahi ka taea e te parahi te āwhina i te whakamama i ngā tohu o te mate rumatiki.
Hei whakamutunga, he uaua ngā pānga o te pepa parahi ki te taiao me te hauora, ā, me whai whakaaro tātou ki ngā pānga ka puta i te wā e whakamahi ana i te pepa parahi. Me whakarite kia hangaia, kia whakahaerea hokipepa parahihe pai mō te taiao, ā, kei roto i te awhe haumaru te kai parahi e kainga ana e tātou. I te wā kotahi, ka taea e tātou te whakamahi i ētahi o ngā āhuatanga pai o te pepa parahi, pērā i ōna āhuatanga ārai mate me te kawe hiko, hei whakapai ake i tō tātou hauora me te kounga o te oranga.
