Eco Hvar

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.

  • ‘Just an unbelievable amount of pollution’: how big a threat is AI to the climate?

    Defenders say AI can do good to fight the climate crisis. But spiralling energy and water costs leave experts worried

    During a golden sunset in Memphis in May, Sharon Wilson pointed a thermal imaging camera at Elon Musk’s flagship datacentre to reveal a planetary threat her eyes could not. Free from pollution controls, the gas-fired turbines that power the world’s biggest AI supercomputer were pumping invisible fumes into the Tennessee sky.

    “It was jaw-dropping,” said Wilson, a former oil and gas worker from Texas who has documented methane releases for more than a decade and estimates xAI’s Colossus datacentre was spewing more of the planet-heating gas than a large power plant. “Just an unbelievable amount of pollution.”

  • Rapid expansion of ring-necked parakeets in UK sparks concern

    Bird organisations say more research on the species needed to control impact on other wildlife

    In the past 20 years, the soundscape in the ancient wild, rolling landscape of Richmond Park has been transformed. Once you would have heard the chirrup of the stonechat, the chirp of the greater spotted woodpecker or the song of the skylark. Today, the auditory power of one bird dominates.

    The bright green ring-necked parakeet increased 25-fold from 1994-2023 in the UK. They are still mainly based in the skies, parks, and woodlands around London and suburban areas in the south east, but in recent years they have made their way to northern cities including Manchester and Newcastle.

  • Battery electric cars will overtake diesels in Great Britain by 2030, analysis suggests

    London predicted to be the first UK city to go diesel-free, largely because of the ultra-low emission zone

    Battery electric cars are poised to overtake diesels on Great Britain’s roads by 2030, according to analysis that suggests London will be the first UK city to go diesel-free.

    The number of diesel cars on Great Britain’s roads in June had fallen to 9.9m in June last year, 21% below its peak of 12.4m vehicles, according to analysis by New AutoMotive, a thinktank focused on the transition to electric cars. Electric car sales are still growing rapidly, albeit more slowly than manufacturers had expected.

  • The electric vehicle revolution is still on course – don’t let your loathing of Elon Musk stop you joining up | Zoe Williams

    Other firms are taking advantage of Tesla’s sales slump, while technological advances mean that glitches are being left in the rear-view mirror

    In another era, before Elon Musk bought Twitter, changed its name to X to mark the spot of its descent into barbarism, honed Grok, a generator of far-right propaganda, swung behind Donald Trump and made what appeared to be a Nazi salute, I already knew he was a wrong ’un. The year was 2019, and I was test-driving a Tesla; while I was ambling off the forecourt, the PR told me jauntily that the windscreen was made of a material that would protect the driver from biohazards. I hit the brakes. “You what? What kind of biohazard? Like, a war?” She misconstrued me, thinking I intended to go and find some toxic waste site to see if it worked, and said: “I’m not sure it’s operational in the press fleet.”

    That wasn’t my question: rather, what kind of a world was Tesla preparing for? One so unstable that an average (though affluent) private citizen would do well to prepare for a chemical weapons attack? What model of consumption was this, that the rich used their wealth to prepare for the mayhem their resource-capture would unleash, while the less-rich prepared slightly less well? Was Musk trying to bring to market the apocalypse planning that elites had already embarked on? Because if he was, then it was possible that he was not a great guy. And that turned out to be correct.

  • 2025 was UK’s hottest and sunniest year on record, says Met Office

    Mean temperature for year was 10.09C, surpassing 2022 record, and 1,648.5 hours of sunshine were recorded

    2025 was the UK’s warmest and sunniest year on record, the Met Office has confirmed.

    The UK’s three hottest years on record have now all been in this decade, which meteorologists say is proof of a rapidly changing climate. All of the top 10 warmest years have happened in the past two decades.

  • Country diary: A wave of relief on the farm with the inheritance tax change | Andrea Meanwell

    Tebay, Cumbria: Small farms like ours contribute to society, but we need help to survive. A huge cloud has lifted over our future

    Just before Christmas I attended a farmers’ conference near Penrith, which included a presentation on the inheritance tax rules for agricultural land. An accountant worked through an example of a typical hill farm like ours: the bill worked out as £59,000 every year for 10 years.

    Between the farm and our off‑farm jobs, we can’t generate that kind of profit, so this terrified me – we didn’t know what would happen to the farm if we had to pay that bill. We sought advice from a solicitor, but, thank goodness, there was a surprise announcement from the government on 23 December that the threshold on land and assets was raised from £1m to £2.5m.

  • Ministers may cut green tech mandate from new homes regulations in England

    Exclusive: Critics say removing battery installation requirement will reduce amount homebuyers save on energy bills

    Ministers are poised to allow homes in England to be built without carbon-cutting technology in what experts have said is a climbdown after pressure from housebuilders.

    The future homes standard (FHS), due to be published in January, will regulate how all homes are built and is expected to enforce tough new regulations such as mandating solar panels on nearly all houses and high standards of insulation and heat pumps in most cases.

  • When north and south winds collide, torrential rain falls in south-east Asia

    The monsoon season is crucial for agriculture, making up 80% of annual rainfall, but also extremely destructive

    January brings torrential rain to south-east Asia – more than 250mm fell in just two days in Singapore last year. This is because of the monsoon, a pattern of wind and rainfall, the name of which stems from the Arabic word for “season”.

    The monsoon is sometimes described in terms of a sea breeze, in which the wind reverses direction in the morning and evening as the relative temperature of land and sea change, blowing out to sea at first and then inland as the land cools.

  • ‘These trees may not survive’: Jordan’s ancient olive harvest wilts under record-breaking heat

    Extreme heat and drought has destroyed 70% of Jordan’s olive crop, endangering livelihoods of 80,000 families and a centuries-old tradition

    Abu Khaled al-Zoubi, 67, walks slowly through his orchard in Irbid, northern Jordan, his footsteps kicking up dust from the parched earth beneath centuries-old olive trees. He stops at a gnarled trunk, its bark split and peeling from months of unrelenting heat.

    He points out that the branches should be sagging under the weight of ripening fruit, but instead they stretch upward, nearly bare, with only a few shrivelled olives clinging to the withered stems.

  • ‘The source of all life is here’: plan to mine lithium in Chilean salt flat sparks fears of water scarcity

    The Colla Indigenous people claim Rio Tinto’s plans to extract the key mineral will harm fragile ecosystems and livelihoods

    Miriam Rivera Bordones tends her goats in a dusty paddock in the russet mountains of Chile’s Atacama desert. She also keeps chickens and has planted quince and peach trees and grapevines, which are watered by a stream winding down the hills towards the Indigenous community of Copiapó.

    But now the huge British-Australian mining multinational Rio Tinto has signed a deal to extract lithium, the “white gold” of the energy transition, from a salt flat farther up the mountains, and she fears the project could affect the water sources of several communities in the area.

  • Unutarnji tjelesni sat povezan s rizikom od demencije

    Problemi sa spavanjem mogli bi biti rani znak upozorenja na demenciju, tvrdi nova studija. Naime, slabiji i fragmentiraniji cirkadijalni ritmovi povezani su s povećanim rizikom od demencije. Zapravo, rezultati su pokazali da ljudi sa slabim cirkadijalnim ritmovima imaju više nego dvostruko veći rizik od demencije.

  • Nepravilan kolagen u ožiljcima maternice povezan s razvojem placente accrete

    Spektar placenta accreta (PAS) nekada je bio rijetko stanje u trudnoći, ali sada pogađa otprilike 14.000 trudnoća godišnje, što predstavlja glavni uzrok smrti majki. Ipak, zašto se to događa još uvijek nije dobro shvaćeno. Placenta accreta (urasla posteljica) nastaje kada posteljica previše duboko raste u stijenku maternice i ne odvaja se nakon poroda, što često rezultira krvarenjem opasnim po život i potrebom za histerektomijom (kirurški zahvat uklanjanja maternice).

  • Povišene razine bakterija u tumorima slabe imunološki odgovor

    Američki znanstvenici s Cleveland Clinic otkrili su da bakterije unutar kancerogenih tumora mogu biti ključne za razumijevanje zašto imunoterapija djeluje kod nekih pacijenata, a kod drugih ne.

  • Težina kronične bolesti bubrega povezana s gastroparezom

    Prema rezultatima nove studije, izgleda da je težina kronične bolesti bubrega (CKD) povezana s povećanim rizikom od gastropareze. Porast prevalencije gastropareze bio je proporcionalan težini kronične bubrežne bolesti, s najvećom vjerojatnošću uočenom u uznapredovalim stadijima u odnosu na pacijente bez kronične bolesti bubrega.

  • Parodontalno bakterijsko opterećenje povezano s težinom bolesti kod multiple skleroze

    Sve više dokaza upućuje na to da teška bolest desni, parodontitis, može doprinijeti poremećajima središnjeg živčanog sustava putem kronične upale. Međutim, njegova uloga u multiploj sklerozi, kroničnoj autoimunoj bolesti središnjeg živčanog sustava, nije bila jasna. No, rezultati nove studije upućuju na potencijalnu povezanost između relativne brojnosti Fusobacterium nucleatum, bakterije koja se nalazi u ustima, i težine bolesti kod pacijenata s multiplom sklerozom.

  • Dihidrotanshinon I inducira autofagnu staničnu smrt kod raka jajnika

    Rezultati nove studije ukazuju na potencijalne terapijske učinke dihidrotanshinona I (DHT), spoja dobivenog iz tradicionalne kineske biljke Salvia miltiorrhiza, na rak jajnika. Istraživanje, koje su proveli kineski znanstvenici sa Zhejiang Chinese Medical University i Jiangsu Normal University, otkriva da dihidrotanshinon I može izazvati autofagnu staničnu smrt u stanicama raka jajnika ometanjem puta autofagije-lizosoma posredovanog sortilinom 1 (SORT1).

  • Uloga proteina NSUN2 u srčanoj hipertrofiji i zatajenju srca

    Nedavno objavljena studija bacila je novo svjetlo na ulogu proteina NSUN2 u razvoju srčane hipertrofije i zatajenja srca. Naime, istraživanje, koje su proveli kineski znanstvenici s Harbin Medical University pokazalo je, da NSUN2, član obitelji domena NOL1/NOP2/Sun, značajno doprinosi patološkoj srčanoj hipertrofiji aktiviranjem osi LARP1-GATA4, potencijalno nudeći novu terapijsku metu za zatajenje srca.

  • Alarmantni porast stopa gestacijskog dijabetesa

    Gestacijski dijabetes, stanje, koje povećava zdravstvene rizike i za majku i za dijete, poraslo je u SAD-u za 36% tijekom devetogodišnjeg razdoblja (s 58 na 79 slučajeva na 1.000 poroda) i povećalo se u svim rasnim i etničkim skupinama, pokazala je nova studija.

  • Brige oko novca ubrzavaju starenje srca i povećavaju rizik od smrti

    Briga oko spajanja kraja s krajem stari vaše srce jednako kao i klasični čimbenici rizika za srčane bolesti, tvrdi nova studija. Naime, pokazalo se, da su financijski pritisak i nesigurnost u vezi s hranom najjači pokretači ubrzanog starenja srca.

  • Rana povezanost mozga predviđa oporavak nakon traumatske ozljede mozga

    Nakon traumatske ozljede mozga, neki se pacijenti mogu potpuno oporaviti, dok drugi zadržavaju teške invaliditete. Točna procjena prognoze je izazovna kod pacijenata na terapiji održavanja života. Iako funkcionalna magnetska rezonancija u mirovanju (rs-fMRI) može procijeniti neurološku aktivnost ubrzo nakon ozljede mozga, nije poznato predviđa li komunikacija između regija mozga u ovom ranom trenutku dugoročni oporavak.
