Što je inspiriralo ECO HVAR za okoliš

Bird Names

Objavljeno u Okoliš

Names in English and Croatian of birds commonly seen on Hvar, together with the scientific names. 

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.

Dobro zdravlje ovisi o čistom zraku, vodi i okolišu. Otok Hvar je savršeno situiran da bi ponudio sve te blagodati. Dobar dio otoka je nezagađen. Međutim, stvari nisu savršene ni u ni na zemlji.

Na engleskom jeziku GBH je skraćenica za tešku tjelesnu ozljedu (Grievous Bodily Harm), kazneno djelo prema britanskome zakonu. To je i skraćenica za herbicide na bazi glifosata (glyphosate-based herbicides).

2015.godiner, nizozemac i ljubitelj orhideja Frank Verhart je posjetio Hvar i Brač da bi bilježio orhideje na tim otocima. Ovaj tekst od novinara Mirka Crnčevića je objavljen u Slobodnoj Dalmaciji 25/04/2015., i reproduciran ovdje uz dozovlu.

The Romans knew how to build, and they knew how to choose the best sites for their building. Diocletian's Palace in Split is a prime and well-preserved example. 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.

Organski uzgoj - je li uopće moguć? DA! Isplati li se? DA! Mihovil Stipišić iz Vrboske to dokazuje vlastitim primjerom.

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.

Kako smanjiti kučni otpad - do nule?! Sve je moguće, samo treba krenuti, mic po mic.

  • Exclusive: Fighting Dirty taking legal action against government over proposal it says could import weaker standards

    An environmental campaign group is taking legal action against the government over proposals that it claims could fast-track chemical hazard classifications from other countries with lower standards into UK law.

    Fighting Dirty claims proposals to change the classification and labelling of potentially hazardous chemicals could result in the UK weakening standards on cancer-causing substances.

  • Photosynthesis does not always result in wood growth, a key factor in carbon dioxide sequestration

    Trees may not be able to store as much planet-heating carbon as hoped, a study suggests, with researchers finding photosynthesis does not always lead to wood growth.

    Scientists studied 137 sites across the US and found trees stopped growing months before the point in the year at which photosynthesis stopped.

  • ExclusiveA vast area of the Bellingshausen Sea should be covered by sea ice by now, with one expert calling the loss of ice ‘depressing’

    Antarctica’s west coast is missing an area of winter sea ice the size of France, sparking concerns for threatened penguins other marine life and global sea levels.

    One expert said the loss of ice in the Bellingshausen Sea was “depressing” and the failure of ice to form could have intensified a heatwave over the continent’s peninsula last week that saw daytime temperatures peak at 15.4C which is more than 20C above average.

  • Appearance of a western reef heron in north Wales is unlikely to be the last, as heating temperatures mean species can survive Britain’s winter, say experts

    It is a tropical bird typically encountered between west Africa and India, but last week a western reef heron arrived in north Wales in what is believed to be the first ever sighting in the UK.

    The heron was first spotted in Foryd Bay at the weekend before flying to nearby Caernarfon harbour where it fed among the boats.

  • Wolsingham, Weardale: These stunning butterflies are here in incredible numbers this year, yet what’s most remarkable is their multigenerational migration

    There’s a painted lady basking on the footpath. Her orange, black-tipped, white-spotted wings, a little worn after her long journey, blend with shadows and sun-flecks on heatwave-baked mud, so she’s almost under our feet before she takes flight. And here’s another, nectaring on a dandelion; and another; then several more. I can’t recall ever seeing so many so early in the year.

    Waiting for the arrival of these migrant butterflies is akin to anticipating the first swallow. Tantalising mid-April sightings from Wales and Cumbria were reported on social media, but we waited until mid-May before finding our first in Weardale.

  • More than 20,000 votes cast in Butterfly Conservation’s poll of 60 native species to find nation’s favourite for first time

    The votes are in on Britain’s favourite butterfly, and it is one of the most ubiquitous yet spectacular backyard beauties that has flown to victory.

    With its lavender, yellow and maroon eye spots and luscious rusty red and black colouration, the peacock butterfly is both beautiful and commonplace, flying throughout spring, summer and autumn in all corners of the British Isles.

  • Imperial College scientists analysed health records before and after introduction of air pollution reduction zones

    Low emission and clean air zones attract controversy whenever they are proposed, but there is growing evidence that they work in improving air quality. The Bradford zone was followed by a reduction of about 25% in GP visits for heart and breathing problems and survey data shows that the central London zone was followed by a reduction in the likelihood of a person taking sick leave.

    Now analysis of health records has found emergency admissions to hospital reduced after the introduction of the T-charge and ultra-low emissions zone (Ulez) in central London.

  • With limited resources and sanctions tightening, conservationists are forced to find new ways to protect the coral reefs of Ciénaga de Zapata national park

    At 8am, scuba divers gather to collect plastic and drinks cans from the sea at Cuba’s Ciénaga de Zapata national park. Amid a power crisis that has virtually paralysed the country’s economy, they use an electric trailer to move to a designated spot. In only a few hours, they have collected five sacks of cans and waste.

    Lack of environmental awareness, invasive species and the climate crisis have long threatened the island’s pristine marine ecosystem but as US sanctions and economic scarcity take their toll on the country, scientists and community conservationists are working with even scarcer resources to protect a vital ecosystem for the Caribbean and the world.

  • Despite plunging border crossings, the Trump administration is circumventing laws to expedite building in a vast, pristine wilderness

    The Trump administration has waived a slew of environmental and historical preservation laws that would allow it to build a towering border wall that cuts through Big Bend national park, a vast protected wilderness in south Texas.

    Congress poured a whopping $46.5bn for border wall construction into the “Big, Beautiful” bill last year, supercharging Donald Trump’s ambition to wall off the southern border with Mexico. The longest unwalled stretches lie along a roughly 500-mile (800km) section of west Texas that Customs and Border Protection calls the “Big Bend sector”.

  • While La Calera faced severe water rationing, local springs were being drained by the drinks giant’s franchise. So the residents fought back

    When a severe drought struck La Calera near Bogotá, many of its residents lost their water for drinking, cooking and farming and faced up to 15 days of strict water rationing each month. Yet the area is home to Chingaza reservoir, which supplies about 70% of the drinking water for Colombia’s capital.

    As the drought stretched from April 2024 to April last year, people began to look more closely at how their water was being managed.
