Category Knjige o životinjama

Izdavač Medicinska naklada, 2006

Autor u ovoj bogato ilustriranoj knjizi kritički objašnjava aktualnu temu u EU i HR o proizvodnji zdravstveno ispravne hrane animalnog podrijetla bez ostataka lijekova opasnih za ljudsko zdravlje i okoliš. Materija je u skladu s Pravilnikom i ekološkoj proizvodnji životinjskih proizvoda (NN 13,2002.) s naglaskom na zdravstvenu zaštitu, uzgoj i držanje na što prirodnijoj osnovi. Postupci su opisani prema citiranim autorima humane i veterinarske prakse u odnosu na konje, goveda, ovce, koze i svinje kao i na pse kao posebno zanimljive potencijalne pacijente. U nas još ne postoje nužni preduvjeti za uporabu homeopatije u humanoj i veterinarskoj medicini, a homeopatska medicinska praksa još je u začetku za razliku od nekih razvijenih zemalja Europe.

  • Europe suffers under record heatwave as temperatures forecast to reach 44C

    Rail services, schools and sports events hit, with deaths of three elderly people in France partly blamed on intense heat

    Western Europe is enduring a ferocious heatwave forecast to break temperature records, with half of France on red alert, rail services in Belgium disrupted and sports events in Spain and Germany cancelled or postponed.

    French authorities on Monday placed 49 of the country’s 96 mainland departments on a level 1 danger-to-life warning, urging 35 million people to exercise “absolute vigilance”, drink water often, avoid all strenuous exertion and avoid direct sun.

  • El Niño is back with a vengeance – and fears of ‘Godzilla’ strength may be the least of our worries

    UN’s World Food Programme and agriculture agency issue joint appeal for funds to avert global hunger crisis before it happens

    Adugna Woyessa was a little boy the first time drought tore his country apart. As harvests failed in rain-starved regions of Ethiopia in the early 1970s, and his school turned a classroom into a grain store for farmers to send aid, he had no idea that scientists were beginning to connect the force parching its fields with cyclical shifts in trade winds that had long supercharged violent weather from South America to Australia.

    The now notorious El Niño – Spanish for “little boy” – was named by fishers in the Pacific in the 1800s, but it was not until the 1970s that scientists understood its global nature and began to piece together the historical impact of the natural weather pattern characterised by hot years and brutal extremes.

  • Country diary: Somewhere in the vast forest is a miniature one | Amanda Thomson

    Abernethy forest, Cairngorms: One of my favourite species, the tiny twinflower, does better in Scots pinewoods than most places in the UK. Now I just have to find some

    The soundtrack to my day is the calls of siskins, blackcaps, willow warblers, coal tits and tree pipits, the drumming of a great spotted woodpecker and an occasional cuckoo. But this morning my gaze is aimed downwards. I’m walking slowly, gingerly, looking for a colony of twinflowers that I know I’ve seen around here before.

    They’re one of my favourite flowers and a sign for me that summer is here. Standing just 10cm in height, their stems form a delicate Y with two, tiny, beautiful pale pinkish-white bell‑shaped flowers that hang from each of the tops.

  • How Europe’s EV makers shrank their product to challenge the bloated SUVs

    Smaller, cheaper cars built for narrow city streets are becoming more stylish – but require careful design decisions

    The winding backstreets of London, Paris and Rome are a large part of their charm. But they are also a problem for electric carmakers. For a long time, squeezing big batteries into smaller, cheaper cars to fit European streets was too much of a problem, so manufacturers focused on bloated SUVs instead.

    But that is finally changing. Battery technology has improved and Europe’s carmakers havecut manufacturing costs enough that they can now sell cars that might have a chance of fitting down a medieval lane or two.

  • ‘It’s Russian roulette’: alarm as Europe backs critical minerals mines in water-stressed regions

    Exclusive: European Commission planning to rewrite key law to allow water-intensive mines in regions suffering from drought

    The European Commission plans to rewrite the EU’s flagship water protection law to speed up the development of critical minerals mines, despite many being located in drying and water-stressed regions, analysis has found.

    Mining is a water-intensive industry, requiring large volumes of water for ore processing, dust suppression, waste management and mine dewatering. While modern projects recycle water, they still require significant amounts, and in water-stressed regions those demands can add to pressure on already stretched rivers, aquifers and water supplies.

  • Skeleton of the world’s rarest marine mammal preserved by digital imaging

    The reconstruction of the vaquita, whose numbers barely reach double figures in the wild, is designed to help research and conservation efforts

    Scientists have created a digital reconstruction of the world’s most endangered marine mammal, preserving its anatomy in three dimensions to aid research and conservation efforts as the species teeters on the brink of extinction.

    The project digitised the skeleton of a female vaquita, a small porpoise found only in Mexico’s northern Gulf of California, using a combination of medical imaging, ultra-high-resolution micro CT scans and photography.

  • Country diary: For the beloved Ash Dome, death is not the end | Anita Roy

    Blaenau Ffestiniog, Gwynedd: This living sculpture, planted in the 1970s ‘for the 21st century’, is fading fast. But heartbreak is not the only response

    Ten years ago when I visited the Ash Dome, it was an elegant, twisting circle of beautiful trees. Ten years ago, ash dieback had not yet reached this corner of Wales. Returning now to this secret location, I steeled myself for heartbreak. And there it was.

    Today, the Ash Dome, a living sculpture by the renowned artist David Nash, is an elephant’s graveyard. Pale, twisted limbs encircle a heap of dead branches. On a few trunks, new shoots spring innocently upwards, but most are ailing, their bark white and flaky as dead skin.

  • From mobile jungles to shadow art: how Dutch people try to beat the heat

    A national heatwave plan has been activated to help people stay cool during the Netherlands’ increasingly hot summers

    Households in Amsterdam are being urged to hang their curtains outside their windows as health experts recommend simple hacks to moderate the heatwave rolling across the Netherlands, where homes were built for old-fashioned damp and coldish northern European weather.

    In a viral social media post last week, Eline Coolen, the heat coordinator at the city’s public health institute, urged sweaty city-dwellers to rig up temporary curtain rails or drape curtains or sheets outside to stop the sun’s rays reaching their large windows.

  • How India’s heatwaves are shutting schools – and pushing women out of the workforce

    Forced to stay home or switch jobs, working mothers are bearing the brunt of the climate crisis as classes go online for weeks or months at a time

    Outside, the temperature has passed 41C (105.8F). Inside Sakshi Katyal’s city apartment, the air conditioner is blasting but it does little to relieve the stress of balancing housework and helping her five-year-old log in on a laptop to online classes. Her daughter’s school closed in May and Katyal is not clear when it will reopen. Probably not till the autumn.

    Schools across Delhi and in about half of India’s 28 states have been ordered to close from mid-May until the end of June, when in many places the summer break starts. There is no official record of closures in past years but the Guardian has spoken to school officials who say the number of days schools are shut for because of the heat has risen sharply. The impact on families, especially on working women, has been huge.

  • ‘We want a new Albania’: protests against Jared Kushner-backed resort turn anger on government

    Opposition to plans for ‘small paradise’ island of Sazan becomes wave of dissent against establishment

    For Ina Shkurti, like so many Albanians, the island of Sazan has played an outsized role. As a child she bathed in its “always calm and emerald green” waters, as a teenager it figured in her dreams and as an adult it was an indelible part of the memory and desire that drew her back, every summer, to Vlore, her home town across the sea.

    What Shkurti never imagined was that plans to build a mega-resort on Sazan – one of two luxurious complexes on Albania’s southern coast backed by Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner – would trigger a revolt, an uprising that has convulsed the Balkan state in a spasm of disgust over the perceived excesses of “a rotten oligarchic class” just as it hopes to complete accession talks with the EU.
