Voda bez tragova glifosata, ali nebriga za životinje bode oči!

Objavljeno u Ljubimci

Bilo je burno na Redovnoj skupštini Udruge "Eco Hvar" – za dobrobit ljudi, životinja i okoliša otoka Hvara, a koja se u posljednje vrijeme na nekoliko vrlo čitanih portala bavila prvenstveno temama vezanim za uporabu pesticida kako u javnom, tako i privatnom prostoru.

▪ Vezano uz uporabu raznih otrova od strane stanovništva moguće je djelovati raznim oblicima informiranja, stalno moramo predočavati dostupna saznanja o njihovoj štetnosti do kojih dolaze brojni znanstvenici u međunarodnim neovisnim institucijama. Dobra je vijest da voda iz javne slavine na jelšanskoj Pjaci ne sadrži ostatke glifosata, sastojaka koje sadrže brojni pesticidi – kazala je Vivian Grisogono, predsjednica Udruge.

Naime, lani su krajem ljeta uzeti uzorci vode iz slavine u Jelsi i poslani na analizu u jedan institut u Španjolskoj. Na veliko zadovoljstvo sada su primljeni rezultati koji pokazuju da su uzorci bez tragova glifosata. No, to nije znak da treba bez ikakvog ograničenja i nadalje koristiti sredstva s tim sastojkom, jer su nezavisni instituti EU izrazili ozbiljnju sumnju da su glifosati potencijalno kancerogeni. Srećom, zemljišta na otoku su još toliko živa da se za sada 'uspješno bore' s ostacima otrova. Nadajmo se da će tako biti i nadalje.

Odbačena štenad i mačke

▪ Tijekom prošle godine Udruga se skrbila i o životinjama, jer su ljudi na žalost u tri navrata iz svojih kuća izbacili po sedam štenaca. Pronašli su ih domaći ljudi ili stranci koji su o tome obavijestili Udrugu. Četvero štenaca završilo je u Pitvama, no dobra je vijest da su neki od njih sretno udomljeni, pa čak i u Njemačkoj. Nekoliko stranaca bilo je voljno udomiti ponekog psića, ali to jednostavno nije bilo moguće. Ako čovjek dođe na Hvar avionom i nastavi putovanje, ne možemo očekivati da će sa škoja ponijeti psića – rekla je Grisogono.

Inače, Udruga je uspostavila djelotvornu suradnju s azilom za napuštene životinje u Kaštel Sučurcu koji vrlo dobro vodi doktorica Vesna Filipović. Međutim, jedan od glavnih prioriteta i dalje je projekt izgradnje azila za napuštene pse i mačke na otoku Hvaru. Za tu namjenu Udruga je praktično osigurala zemljište koje je gotovo idealno, a u tijeku je i izrada projektne dokumentacije.

Lina (iz Vrbanja na Hvaru) je našla novi dom u Njemačkoj preko Azila u Kaštel Sučurcu.

Budući da Udruga sva sredstva za svoj rad osigurava isključivo putem donacija članovi vjeruju da će se napokon pronaći i izvori javnih sredstava za aktivnosti koje se tiču zaštite ljudi, okoliša i životinja.

  • Scientists film whale giving birth while other whales work together to help her

    Female named Rounder surrounded by family members when about to give birth to her second calf

    Scientists have managed to film a sperm whale giving birth while other female whales worked together to support the mother and her newborn.

    A team from Project Ceti, an international effort seeking to understand how whales communicate, was in a boat near a pod of 11 whales off the coast of the Caribbean island of Dominica on 8 July 2023.

  • Beavers ‘breathe new life’ into Dorset as dams built and biodiversity returns

    National Trust says one year after reintroduction they are enriching habitats and may be having kits this summer

    They were released this time last year with fanfare, much hope and also, perhaps, a little trepidation.

    Twelve months on, there have been ups and downs for the first beavers to be (officially) reintroduced into the wild in England since the semiaquatic mammals were hunted to extinction 400 years ago.

  • ‘It helped me feed my six children’: how Africa’s first water fund supports farmers to protect Kenya’s biggest river

    Conserving the watershed of the Tana and improving farming methods is securing water supplies and livelihoods alike in a changing climate

    When in 2017 David Nyoro became one of the first farmers to partner with Africa’s first water fund to conserve the watershed of Kenya’s biggest river, he received 180 high-value avocado seedlings. The 67-year-old’s farming methods had been dominated by annual crops that left large sections of his five-acre piece of land bare, increasing soil erosion and contributing to river sedimentation. “We used to lose a lot of topsoil to the river. Such loss of soil nutrients and poor farming practices meant we had less farm produce,” he says.

    The avocado seedlings enabled him to grow his farm income to close to 2m Kenyan shillings (about £11,500 at today’s exchange rates), with each mature avocado tree yielding 70kg (154lbs) annually. He introduced cover crops to improve soil health and reduce soil erosion and sediment loads.

  • More than 6m vapes and pods discarded weekly in UK despite single-use ban, study finds

    Number fell 23% year on year in 2025 but waste companies say recycling systems still under strain from sheer volume

    More than 6m vapes and vape pods are still being discarded every week in the UK, with waste management companies warning the sheer volume continues to strain recycling systems despite the ban on disposable e-cigarettes.

    According to research by the recycling campaign group Material Focus, the 6.3m vapes and pods thrown away each week in 2025 represented a 23% reduction from the previous year.

  • Cut the lights – and seven more ways to save Britain’s bats

    Lots of us aren’t very keen on bats. But the more we find out about them, the more amazing they turn out to be

    Bats have a bad rep: in a recent survey by the Bat Conservation Trust (BCT), 46% of people expressed negative feelings about bats. But just look at them! Bat carer Liz Vinson, a volunteer with the BCT, calls them “little furry humans with huge jazz hands. They have individual characters: some are divas; some are bone idle.”

    Shirley Thompson, BCT’s honorary education officer, has been championing bats since the 1980s. “I still think they’re magic,” she says. “The more you find out about them, the more you realise what amazing creatures they are.”

  • Iran’s black rain is latest grim example of weather in war zones

    Strikes on oil facilities burned thousands of tons of stored fuel, producing a pall of toxic smoke

    Black rain fell in Iran earlier this month, a grim phenomenon seen previously in other war zones.

    Strikes on oil facilities burned thousands of tons of stored fuel. Unlike the clean controlled combustion inside an engine, uncontrolled burning leaves many particles of unburned fuel, producing a pall of toxic smoke over affected areas.

  • ‘Tempolimit? Nein, danke!’: why German petrolheads won’t slow down – despite the energy crisis

    Driving fast is in ‘the German DNA’, say lovers of the speed-limit free Autobahn, but support in the country for a restriction is growing

    Death-defying thrills are not what draws Lutz Leif Linden to zip down the Autobahn faster than a plane taking off. Instead, the feeling of freedom and an appreciation of technological mastery play a part in his “almost loving relationship” with driving cars faster than most people can imagine.

    The top speed he has reached on the road in Germany, the world’s only democracy without a blanket speed limit on motorways, is 400km/h (249mph). “It’s like an airplane,” said Linden, the president of the Automobile Club of Germany (AvD). “You are faster than an Airbus at start.”

  • Is foraging really feasible to feed myself?

    This labor-intensive way of eating isn’t for everyone – and I’m not sure it’s for me. It requires planning and flexibility

    When I called Robin Greenfield, an environmental activist and author, his assistant answered. “We’re stopped really quick,” Marielle said, adding “he is harvesting a ton of wild onions right now. He’ll be on in just a minute.”

    I waited, curious to see his haul and bemused by his willingness to delay an interview for wild vegetables. I had called Greenfield, who wrote Food Freedom about the year he grew and foraged 100% of his food, to talk about how possible, or hard, it is to do just that.

  • Four wives, two passports and a very elusive butterfly: one woman’s search for her lepidopterist father

    Rena Effendi’s film Searching for Satyrus began with a quest for the endangered insect that bears her family name. Before long, she was reckoning with secrets, lies and the mysterious life of her wayward dad

    High in the Caucasus mountains, the photojournalist Rena Effendi is searching for the butterfly that bears the name of the father she hardly knew. It is rocky, bleak, beautiful – and impossible. The grass is fried yellow by the increasingly fierce summer sun, the butterfly’s food has been grazed by sheep and, if it exists at all, Satyrus effendi usually flies only as a single insect across a square kilometre of rock, scree and slope.

    A butterfly hunt makes an unlikely subject for a prize-winning documentary, but Searching for Satyrus is a gripping quest that reveals a remarkable part of the world little known to western audiences while examining issues from war and nationalism to global heating and extinction. Ultimately, however, Effendi’s search for her father’s butterfly becomes a moving reckoning with the secrets and lies in her family and the life of her wayward father.
