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.

  • Scientists say finding is ‘very concerning’ as collapse would be catastrophic for Europe, Africa and the Americas

    The critical Atlantic current system appears significantly more likely to collapse than previously thought after new research found that climate models predicting the biggest slowdown are the most realistic. Scientists called the new finding “very concerning” as a collapse would have catastrophic consequences for Europe, Africa and the Americas.

    The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (Amoc) is a major part of the global climate system and was already known to be at its weakest for 1,600 years as a result of the climate crisis. Scientists spotted warning signs of a tipping point in 2021 and know that the Amoc has collapsed in the Earth’s past.

  • Sustainability certification by Marine Stewardship Council may be obscuring labour abuses in seafood supply chains, say researchers

    The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), which operates a “blue tick” scheme to indicate the sustainability of fish, has been accused of creating an “illusion” of ethical sourcing, after a study reported that widespread labour abuses have taken place on the fishing vessels it approves.

    One in five vessels where the crew reported abuses to the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) over the last five years took place on ships catching seafood certified as sustainable by the MSC, researchers found.

  • Map reveals most severe concentrations of ammonia emissions, which are dangerous to health and environment

    Ammonia pollution hotspots have been identified in areas with some of the greatest numbers of intensive pig and poultry farms in Britain, research has revealed.

    A new map for the first time reveals the most severe concentrations of ammonia emissions are clustered in Lincolnshire, Herefordshire and Norfolk. These regions all have a high density of intensive poultry and pig units that drive dangerous levels of ammonia, according to researchers from Compassion in World Farming (CiWF) and Sustain.

  • Exclusive: ministers consider restricting pesticide-based treatments, which can get into waterways and harm wildlife

    Pet owners across the UK could be banned from buying flea treatment for cats and dogs under new government rules.

    Ministers have begun an eight-week consultation on letting only veterinary practitioners or pharmacists give out the potent, pesticide-based flea treatments, to ensure “correct usage”. At the moment, the flea and tick treatments can be bought from any pet shop.

  • Energy crisis unfolding in Middle East has added political urgency, and more funding, to transform South Korea’s solar industry

    In Guyang-ri, a farming village of 70 households about 90 minutes south-east of Seoul, people gather for communal free lunches six days a week. The meals are funded by the village’s one-megawatt solar installation, which generates roughly 10m won ($6,800) in net profit each month.

    “Residents eat lunch together every day, so we see each other’s faces, talk together,” says Jeon Joo-young, the village chief. “Bonds and solidarity between residents become much stronger. Life becomes more enjoyable.”

  • Researchers find increase in whale deaths in the bay, largely because of collisions with vessels on busy shipping route

    Gray whales have historically been a rare sight in the San Francisco Bay. They trek from the warm lagoons of Mexico’s Baja California more than 10,000 miles (16,000km) north to the Arctic region to feast on shrimp-like animals during the summers, seldom stopping in the busy shipping corridor for prolonged periods.

    But in recent years, that story has changed in a dire way. A new study, published this week in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science, has found that gray whales in the bay have been dying at alarming rates, largely due to collisions with vessels.

  • Prof Yasuyuki Aono’s meticulous work charted shifting bloom dates as a marker of climate change

    Even in his final months, he counted the days until the cherry blossoms. Prof Yasuyuki Aono of Osaka Metropolitan University spent his career gathering data on the spring flowering dates of cherry trees in Japan in what is one of the world’s longest climate records tracking a seasonal occurrence.

    Using sources dating as far back as the 9th century, he revealed that cherry tree flowerings have occurred progressively earlier in recent decades – a now famous marker of climate change.

  • Air pollution caused by wildfires is another blow to northern Thailand’s tourism industry as businesses suffer amid war in Iran

    The Doi Suthep temple in northern Thailand is known for its spectacular views of Chiang Mai and the lush forested mountains that surround it. Over recent weeks, though, visitors can see little of the city beyond a thick cloud of grey haze.

    Persistent wildfires have caused intense air pollution across the north of Thailand, forcing three provinces to declare emergencies and triggering spikes in pollution-related illnesses.

  • Trump’s EPA chief Lee Zeldin’s presence shows how much influence climate deniers now have, experts say

    As scientists confirmed that March was the United States’ most abnormally hot month in recorded history, dozens of climate deniers gathered to promote misinformation and tout their newfound influence on federal policy.

    At a conference hosted by the prominent science-denying thinktank the Heartland Institute last week, a crowd of mostly middle-aged men in suits claimed the world is finally waking up to the idea that the climate crisis does not exist.
