Une catastrophe \u00e9cologique d\u2019une rare violence est en cours au large du Sri Lanka. Ce ne sont pas que les 278 tons of fuel oil<\/strong> that the container ship was carrying, but especially its cargo: 25 tons of nitric acid<\/strong> and several tons of plastic microbeads.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jybe, positive digital media<\/strong>, will not lament this situation, but rather try to understand the issues at stake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This shipwreck highlights the urgent need to study the ancestral knowledge of indigenous peoples. Indeed, more than environmental, this disaster is mainly human.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The city of Negombo, located a few dozen kilometers from the shipwreck, has seen for several weeks his beaches covered with plastic<\/strong> and fishing is prohibited<\/strong>. This city is home to some of the last fishermen sailing on traditional catamarans: the Teppams or Katamarans. This situation puts in danger the peoples rich in valuable know-how<\/strong> and fruits of centuries of adaptation that rely on the sea to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further south, near the town of Galle, the life of the pole fishermen will be disrupted for several weeks. They have developed an original technique: perched a few meters above the tumult of the Indian Ocean, they catch their prey with their lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional local fishing in Sri Lanka<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many of these fishermen will cease their activity following the sinking of the X-Press Pearl<\/strong>They will then turn like many others to tourism for a living? With them, irreplaceable knowledge on ecosystems, resource management, woodworking and many others will disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Jybe, we want to hear from these men and women of practical intelligence. As young citizens, we believe we have a lot to learn<\/strong> alongside the first victims of our unsustainable lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current events show us that this mission is becoming urgent!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
