Drugačija turistička atrakcija

Objavljeno u Zanimljivosti

U utorak, 16.07., Ultra festival “spustio” se na Hvar, čiji su se stanovnici, koji se s time već dugo pate, pripremili na taj događaj. U središtu otoka istovremeno se odvijala atrakcija suprotna gore spomenutoj, a koja bi mogla pokazati put očuvanju mirnog turizma na otoku.

Katolička misa na poljskom jeziku vjerojatno je antiteza neobuzdanih budalaština uzrokovanih alkoholom i drogama velikog broja hvarskih party turista, lokalno zvanih “partijaneri”. Umjereniji stanovnici Hvara dugo se bore protiv ljetnog priljeva nesputanih gostiju navodeći među svojim pritužbama neprihvatljivu zbrku i buku te nepristojno odijevanje i ponašanje.

Događaj Ultra Europe koji se tri dana i noći održavao u Splitu u “Parku mladeži”, od 14.-17.07.2019., neki su proglasili uspjehom s vrlo malo incidenata te je hvaljen i dočekan raširenih ruku od strane političara i direktora turističkih zajednica. Ipak, druga strana medalje također je privukao pažnju hrvatskih medija. Javna mjesta oskvrnuta razuzdanim ponašanjem uzrokovanog drogama i alkoholom, mokrenje i pražnjenje čak i prije početka festivala (Slobodna Dalmacija, 12.07.2019.); grozan nered u Splitu nakon prvog dana Ultre (IndexHR, 13.07.2019); te droga koja je, činilo se, partijanerima bila glavna potpora tijekom splitskog dijela festivala (Slobodna Dalmacija 15.07.2019.). Događaj svakako privlači veliki broj posjetitelja (Slobodna Dalmacija 13.07.2019.) ali koliko (ako uopće) ustvari koristi donosi  jednom gradu, čije je središte na UNESCO-vom popisu svjetske baštine, vrlo je upitno.

Dalmatinski turizam tradicionalno se bazira na vrlo toplom gostoprimstvu i dugotrajnim prijateljstvima koja njeguju privatni iznajmljivači i njihovi gosti. Teškoće koje je stvorio Domovinski rat (1991.-95.) uzrokovao je raskid ovih odnosa. Dok su se neki stalni gosti nakon rata vratili, mnogi nisu. Mnogo se toga promijenilo od tada, a dalmatinski turizam iz potrebe se razvio u drugom smjeru koja uključuje ponudu glazbenih festivala velikih razmjera čija su ciljna skupina mlađi odrasli ljudi. Dalmacija ima nevjerojatno širok opseg turističkih atrakcija i njezino ekonomsko blagostanje ovisi o turizmu. Čak je možda iznenađujuće koliko se malo reklamira upravo strancima. Stoga je misa na poljskom jeziku dobar, i vrlo dobrodošao, početak.

Nadahnuta je to zamisao Don Roberta Bartošeka koji će voditi misu, svake nedjelje u 12:15, tijekom srpnja i kolovoza u župnoj crkvi u Vrisniku. Sve zasluge njemu jer on i njegovi kolege pod velikim su pritiskom na poslu zbog nedostatka svećenika na otoku - što zbog preseljenja, što zbog bolesti i umirovljenja. Don Roberta su lani doveli za župnika Pitava i Vrisnika. Vrlo se brzo smjestio i stekao poštovanje svojih župljana zbog svoje sposobnosti da se uklopi u lokalne običaje. Isto tako, uveo je neke šarmantne običaje iz svoje rodne države među kojima se posebno isticala podjela sitnih poklona lokalnoj djeci od strane uskršnjeg zeca nakon mise na Uskrs.

Don Robertove dužnosti odnedavno su proširene stoga je njegova predanost još vrijednija poštovanja. Poljski stanovnici i posjetitelji otoka Hvara oduševljeno su se odazvali, njih nekih 54 prisustvovalo je svojoj prvoj posebnoj misi, zatim preko 100 vjernika je došlo par tjedana kasnije; kad su došli oko 150 vjernika, nisu svi mogli stati u crkvi! Vjerojatno to i nije iznenađujuće obzirom da je Poljska vrlo katolička država, isto tako i vrlo bliska zajednica, a don Robert je neumoran u svojoj pastoralnoj brizi za svoje zemljake kojima je potrebna pomoć.

Na taj način je, tiho i diskretno, novi element  dodan hvarskim turističkim atrakcijama - malen ali vrijedan. Jedan koji pokazuje posebnu vrstu brige i obzira spram grupe otočkih posjetitelja. Don Robertov sastanak s otokom trebao je biti privremen, samo godinu dana. Nadajmo se da će se njegov ostanak produljiti, a isto tako da će njegova inicijativa pružanja duhovne potpore svojim zemljacima postati dugotrajna tradicija - a možda se realiziraju “mise za turiste” i na drugim jezicima?

  • Even as we empathise with these intelligent animals, our relentless push for resources kills them in their thousands, just as whalers once hunted them to the brink of extinction

    For weeks now, a humpback whale has been trying to die. Entangled in ropes, it had wandered into the shallow Baltic Sea. Unable to feed, it is now subject to extreme dehydration, since whales satisfy their thirst through the fish they eat.

    In such a parlous situation, the whale’s last resort was to strand itself on Poel Island, in the Bay of Wismar. Sadly, it has been a slow death. Beached whales die because they are crushed by their own weight. The German humpback’s agony may have been prolonged because it lay in shallow water and was thus only partly submerged.

  • The US attack on Iran has made the need for renewable energy inarguable. Environmentalists are now being seen for the pragmatists that they are

    Donald Trump has done more to accelerate the energy transition than anyone else alive. Fossil fuel companies bankrolled his presidential campaign to stop the transition in its tracks. But when you back a volatile narcissist, unable to concentrate for more than a few minutes at a time, you shouldn’t expect to control the outcome.

    It’s not that the fossils are suffering yet. As prices have soared since Trump and Netanyahu attacked Iran, oil executives have been selling shares at gobsmacking prices: the CEO of Chevron, for example, has cashed $104m so far this year. Vladimir Putin has also received a massive boost to his Ukraine invasion budget. As promised, Trump has gutted clean energy rules and programmes, green alternatives and environmental science. A fortnight ago, he stated, with the usual quantum of evidence (zero): “The environmentalists, I mean, they are terrorists … I call them environmental terrorists.”

  • Santa Marta conference born out of frustration at Cop summits, where renewable progress has been stalled by major polluters

    Everybody knows fossil fuels cause climate breakdown, but until recently, mention of them was all but erased from the annual UN climate summits. Last year, two weeks of discussions ended without fossil fuels being mentioned in the final outcome.

    Frustration with those talks led a small developing country with a large fossil fuel sector – Colombia, the largest coal and fourth biggest oil exporter in the Americas – to rewrite the rules. With co-convener the Netherlands, and support from more than 50 countries, Colombia will host a groundbreaking new global conference this month to begin the long-awaited “transition away from fossil fuels”.

  • Langness, Isle of Man: With their epic migrations, they are special birds, but especially so here, the place that coined the name

    A swallow recorded at the start of March, sand martins mid-month. This year, many harbingers of spring have come early due to the warming climate, so here on the island, the question was: would our Manx shearwaters return early too?

    Few places have birds named after them, but the Isle of Man is one (Sardinia another, for Sardinian warblers), the name granted in 1835 thanks to a large shearwater colony on the Calf of Man, an island off our south-west corner. That population was devastated by rats from a shipwreck, but after a rodent eradication programme by the Manx Wildlife Trust, numbers have rebounded to more than 1,500 breeding pairs.

  • 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.

  • Exclusive: Experts say scheme will help repair damaged marine ecosystems while sequestering large amounts of carbon

    More than 15m juvenile oysters are to be released into the North Sea in one of the biggest rewilding projects in UK waters.

    The scheme, which will use a unique rearing process, hopes to re-establish a huge oyster bed around Orkney that experts say will create a “trophic cascade” of climate and ecological benefits.

  • At 1.5C of global warming, up to 90% of coral reefs could be lost. The next few months could be a defining moment

    Where I come from – Hawai’i – the reef isn’t just something you look at. It’s part of us. It feeds our families, protects our shores, and lives at the center of our culture. In our stories, coral is one of our oldest ancestors. It’s a reminder that everything in the ocean, and all of us, are connected.

    Right now, that integral connection is under threat.

  • Rising sea levels and ecological damage caused by heavy use of flood defence system force city authorities to consider next move

    The Arsenale, the colossal shipyard that was the engine of the Venetian Republic’s domination for seven centuries, remains the nucleus of the city’s control over the water. Its northern section is made up of cavernous brick warehouses called capannoni, which in the 16th century could produce a warship a day through a rigorously ordered assembly line.

    Now, one of them houses the operations centre of the Mose, the sprawling flood defence system that protects the city.

  • Changing climate, new techniques and a homegrown study programme have all helped drive a UK viticulture boom

    Rows of vines stretch across the rolling hills of rural Dorset. Currently waist height, they appear bare against a bleak spring sky. Up close, you can see they are already dotted with tiny woolly buds as they exit their winter dormancy for a new growth cycle.

    Come summer these rows will be laden with chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier grapes, ready to make the latest batch of English sparkling wine from the Langham estate near Dorchester.

  • A former horticultural nursery in Regent’s Park has been transformed into a diverse mix of habitats, with a wide range of species already spotted ahead of its opening to the public on April 27

    When the Queen Elizabeth II garden opens in Regent’s Park this month, the first people to visit the Royal Parks’ £5m biodiversity project will quickly discover they are not, in fact, the first visitors.

    That honour belongs to a hairy-footed flower bee, a breeding pair of geese, some dragonfly nymphs, a flock of grey wagtails, a prickle of hedgehogs, an armada of newts, a flutter of spring butterflies and a “very cheeky” fox.
