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.

Opasni pesticidi

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.

Diocletian's Palace, A New Look

Objavljeno u Okoliš

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.

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.

  • ‘Pesticide cocktails’ polluting apples across Europe, study finds

    Pan Europe found several pesticide residues in 85% of apples, with some showing traces of up to seven chemicals

    Environmental groups have raised the alarm after finding toxic “pesticide cocktails” in apples sold across Europe.

    Pan Europe, a coalition of NGOs campaigning against pesticide use, had about 60 apples bought in 13 European countries – including France, Spain, Italy and Poland – analysed for chemical residues.

  • US leads record global surge in gas-fired power driven by AI demands, with big costs for the climate

    Projects in development expected to grow global capacity by nearly 50% amid growing concern over impact on planet

    The US is leading a huge global surge in new gas-fired power generation that will cause a major leap in planet-heating emissions, with this record boom driven by the expansion of energy-hungry datacenters to service artificial intelligence, according to a new forecast.

    This year is set to shatter the annual record for new gas power additions around the world, with projects in development expected to grow existing global gas capacity by nearly 50%, a report by Global Energy Monitor (GEM) found.

  • ‘Feels like a losing battle’: the fight against flooding in Somerset

    Emergency pumps are deployed in attempt to stop water inundating homes around River Parrett

    Since medieval monks started draining and managing the Somerset Levels, humans have struggled to live and work alongside water.

    “At the moment it feels like a losing battle,” said Mike Stanton, the chair of the Somerset Rivers Authority.“Intense rainfall is hitting us more often because of climate change. It may be that in the next 50 years, perhaps in the next 20, some homes around here will have to be abandoned.”

  • Baltimore bridge collapse: crew members from ship still held by US two years on

    Despite no criminal charges being brought against them, four officers have been detained since the MV Dali struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge, killing six workers

    Several crew members of a ship that collided with a bridge in Baltimore almost two years ago are still being held in the US by federal authorities despite the fact that no criminal charges have been brought against them.

    In the early hours of 26 March 2024, the MV Dali departed the port of Baltimore bound for Sri Lanka. While navigating the Fort McHenry channel, the 1,000ft-long Singapore-flagged cargo vessel lost power before striking the bridge. The impact resulted in the deaths of six people who were working on the bridge at the time.

  • Dutch government discriminated against Bonaire islanders over climate adaptation, court rules

    Judgment in The Hague orders Netherlands to do more to protect Caribbean people in its territory from impacts of climate crisis

    The Dutch government discriminated against people in one of its most vulnerable territories by not helping them adapt to climate change, a court has found.

    The judgment, announced on Wednesday in The Hague, chastises the Netherlands for treating people on the island of Bonaire, in the Caribbean, differently to inhabitants of the European part of the country and for not doing its fair share to cut national emissions.

  • Does Antarctica really have the bluest sky in the world?

    Light scattering creates the shade we see when we look skyward, and studies show the process varies around the world

    On holiday the sky may look a deeper shade of blue than even the clearest summer day at home. Some places, including Cape Town in South Africa and Briançon in France, pride themselves on the blueness of their skies. But is there really any difference?

    The blue of the sky is the product of Rayleigh scattering, which affects light more at the blue end of the spectrum. The blue we see is just the blue component of scattered white sunlight.

  • Country diary: Rowdy or charming, there’s no one way to wassail | Anita Roy

    Wellington and Wiveliscombe, Somerset: This movable pagan feast can be celebrated very differently, but it’s all to thank the apple trees and fire up their sap

    Old apple tree, we wassail thee,
    And hope that thou wilt bear
    Hatfuls, capfuls and three bushel bagfuls
    And a little heap under the stairs!

    We are standing around a little crab apple tree by the side of Wiveliscombe village hall, singing our hearts out between the car park and the high street. It’s Old Twelfth Night, and in the orchards and gardens of the West Country, people are banging pots, swilling cider, hanging bits of toast in trees and yelling “wassail!”.

  • Exploding trees: the winter phenomenon behind frost cracks

    When temperatures drop suddenly, trapped water can freeze and expand, splitting trunks with a gunshot-like sound

    During the recent cold spell in the northern US, meteorologists issued warnings about exploding trees.

    A tree’s first line of defence against freezing is its bark, which provides efficient insulation. In cold conditions, trees also enter a form of hibernation, with changes at a cellular level: cells dehydrate, harden and shrink, increasing their sugar concentration. This is the botanical equivalent of adding antifreeze, helping to prevent the formation of ice crystals.

  • Experience: a bear moved into my house

    I heard this huff, then a stomp. A growl that sounded like a death warning

    Last November, I’d been out for the evening with friends who were visiting Los Angeles. Afterwards, I checked the notifications on my phone. There was a motion alert from one of the cameras around my house. It had captured a big black bear nosing around my bins.

    We get wildlife here: raccoons, skunks. But I’d never had a bear rummaging through my trash. I watched as it turned things over, then wandered off. I assumed he had left.

  • ‘The LED of heating’: cheap geothermal energy system makes US comeback

    Minnesota housing project to draw energy from water stored deep underground, 45 years on from city’s initial research

    Nearly half a century ago, the US Department of Energy launched a clean energy experiment beneath the University of Minnesota with a simple goal: storing hot water for months at a time in an aquifer more than 100 metres below ground.

    The idea of the seasonal thermal energy storage was to tuck away excess heat produced in summer, then use it in the winter to warm buildings.
