Bogatstvo divljeg cvijeća Hvara

Objavljeno u Okoliš

Divljem cvijeću na Hvaru moguće se veseliti cijele godine. Čak tijekom najgore zime, teško da može proći tjedan, a da plamteće boje ne osvijetle ruralni dio otoka, što je u kontrastu s kamenitim i tamno zelenim, šumovitim dijelom otoka.

New discoveries in and around the Palace in recent years have brought about a major revision of the history of this magnificent Late Antique building project.

Prirodna zaštita biljaka

Objavljeno u Okoliš

Zaštita biljaka od gljivičnih oboljenja ili napada štetoćina vrši se iskljućivo sa biljnim srestvima. Bitno je da se biljke prskaju preventivno ili najkasnije kad se uoće prva oboljenja. Plodovi se jasno mogu i odmah jesti nakon prskanja.

  • UK falling behind EU on environmental rules amid post-Brexit rollback

    Exclusive: Labour ministers choosing to weaken green protections inherited from the bloc, analysis reveals

    The UK is using Brexit to weaken crucial environmental protections and is falling behind the EU despite Labour’s manifesto pledge not to dilute standards, analysis has found.

    Experts have said ministers are choosing to use Brexit to “actively go backwards” in some cases, though there are also areas where the UK has improved nature laws such as by banning sand eel fishing.

    The planning and infrastructure bill, which overrides the EU’s habitats directive and allows developers to pay into a general nature fund rather than keeping or creating new habitat nearby to make up for what is destroyed.

    The UK falling behind on water policy, with the EU implementing stronger legislation to clean rivers of chemicals and microplastics and making polluters pay to clean up.

    Air pollution, as the EU is legislating to clean up the air while the UK has removed EU air pollution laws from the statute book.

    Recycling and the circular economy, as the EU enforces strict new standards for designer goods that could leave the UK as a “dumping ground” for substandard, hard-to-recycle products.

  • ‘A climate of unparalleled malevolence’: are we on our way to the sixth major mass extinction?

    Churning quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere at the rate we are going could lead the planet to another Great Dying

    Daniel Rothman works on the top floor of the building that houses the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, a big concrete domino that overlooks the Charles River in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Rothman is a mathematician interested in the behaviour of complex systems, and in the Earth he has found a worthy subject. Specifically, Rothman studies the behaviour of the planet’s carbon cycle deep in the Earth’s past, especially in those rare times it was pushed over a threshold and spun out of control, regaining its equilibrium only after hundreds of thousands of years. Seeing as it’s all carbon-based life here on Earth, these extreme disruptions to the carbon cycle express themselves as, and are better known as, “mass extinctions”.

    Worryingly, in the past few decades geologists have discovered that many, if not most, of the mass extinctions of Earth history – including the very worst ever by far – were caused not by asteroids as they had expected, but by continent-spanning volcanic eruptions that injected catastrophic amounts of CO2 into the air and oceans.

  • Early ripening of berries in UK shows nature is under stress, say experts

    Hot summer also causing trees to shed their leaves as concerns raised over ‘food gap’ for wildlife in autumn

    Autumn is the “season of mists and mellow fruitfulness”, according to the poet John Keats – but anyone hoping for a glut of blackberries this September may be sorely disappointed.

    In many parts of the UK brambles have been bursting with fruit since mid-summer, with some now bearing only shrivelled berries. And it is not the only hallmark of autumn that appears to have come early: trees are dropping their leaves, apples are ripe and acorns are hitting the ground.

  • Most of Windermere polluted with sewage bacteria, finds biggest survey of its kind

    Exclusive: Concentrations of faecal bacteria in the lake were found to peak in summer but there were high levels throughout year

    Bathing water quality across most of Windermere is poor throughout the summer, indicating high levels of sewage pollution, according to a comprehensive analysis of water quality in England’s largest lake.

    High levels of bacteria found in human faeces – Escherichia coli (E coli) and intestinal enterococci (IE) – indicating sewage pollution, were found to be highest in the summer months, when Windermere is used heavily by holidaymakers for swimming and watersports.

  • Country diary: Even stoats need a break from the ecstasy of being a stoat | Mark Cocker

    Pilsbury, Derbyshire: This one – my first of the year – is a whirlwind. But the most extraordinary moment was when, just for a few seconds, it stopped

    Our friend Helen (the person who encouraged me to write a first speculative Guardian diary 39 years ago) suddenly announced: “I see a stoat.” It would be the year’s first. I was anxious not to miss a glimpse, which is as much as you usually enjoy, because stoats move like eels and evaporate like smoke.

    Not this one. A limestone wall through ancient sheep pasture seemed to have a magnetic hold over its movements. He rippled across the capstones like water, until he transferred attention to a feeding flock of tits that gathered, chattering with alarm at a possible predator.

  • Feargal Sharkey accuses Environment Agency of illegally draining River Lea

    Fishing club chaired by singer threatens court action over abstraction it says is putting rare trout population at risk

    The singer and environmentalist Feargal Sharkey is threatening to take the Environment Agency to court for draining a river that hosts the oldest fishing club in England and putting a rare population of brown trout at risk.

    The former Undertones frontman chairs the Amwell Magna Fishery, which has used the secluded stretch of the River Lea in Hertfordshire since 1841.

  • How can England possibly be running out of water?

    While famously rainswept, climate crisis, population growth and profligacymean the once unthinkable could be possible

    During the drought of 2022, London came perilously close to running out of water. Water companies and the government prayed desperately for rain as reservoirs ran low and the groundwater was slowly drained off.

    Contingency plans were drafted to ban businesses from using water; hotel swimming pools would have been drained, ponds allowed to dry up, offices to go uncleaned. If the lack of rainfall had continued for another year, it was possible that taps could have run dry.

  • Why can’t the world get its act together on plastics? – podcast

    After three years of negotiating, talks over a global plastics treaty came to an end in Geneva last week with no agreement in place. So why has it been so difficult to get countries to agree to cut plastic production? Madeleine Finlay hears from Karen McVeigh, a senior reporter for Guardian Seascapes, about a particularly damaging form of plastic pollution causing devastation off the coast of Kerala, and where we go now that countries have failed to reach a deal

  • Scarborough struggles with ‘gull muggings’ as urban seabird population rises

    Herring gulls and kittiwakes have learned the easiest meal comes from robbing humans rather than at sea

    In a flurry of wings, the predator was off with its prize: a steaming pasty snatched from the hands of a day tripper from Birmingham. “What do you want me to do about it?” her unsympathetic husband said. “I can’t fly.”

    Such a scene has become an almost daily spectacle on the Scarborough seafront, said Amy Watson, a supervisor at the Fishpan restaurant, where hungry herring gulls lurk for their quarry.

  • ‘Pray for rain’: wildfires in Canada are now burning where they never used to

    Canada’s response to the extreme weather threat is being upended as the traditional epicentre of the blazes shifts as the climate warms

    Road closures, evacuations, travel chaos and stern warnings from officials have become fixtures of Canada’s wildfire season. But as the country goes through its second-worst burn on record, the blazes come with a twist: few are coming from the western provinces, the traditional centre of destruction.

    Instead, the worst of the fires have been concentrated in the prairie provinces and the Atlantic region, with bone-dry conditions upending how Canada responds to a threat that is only likely to grow as the climate warms.
