Udruga Održivi otok

Objavljeno u Zanimljivosti

Jedna izuzetna i sjajna inicijativa!

"Dragi prijatelji udruge Održivi otok,
Bliži se kraj 2015. godine, intenzivne i produktivne za OO u svakom smislu. Uspjeli smo iz ničega napraviti svašta, putovali smo od Cipra do Španjolske ali nismo zaboravili srediti Hvarske puteve. Blizu smo (samo)zapošljavanju kroz projektne aktivnosti udruge, čime bi se ostvario jedan od dugoročnih ciljeva.
odrzivi otok za mlade
Na pomolu je Pokret otoka; 1. međuotočna inicijativa na našim prostorima, ali ne i u Europi. Nakon što se umrežimo unutar granica, ništa nas ne sprječava da jedrimo i dalekim morima, upoznamo ostale otočne kulture i učinimo ovaj život još zanimljivijim sebi ali novoj generaciji mladih kojima u današnje vrijeme treba otvoriti put ka svim ovim lijepim stvarima u životu.
Hvala što ste na bilo koji način sudjelovali u našem radu, pratite nas i podržavajte i dalje jer spremamo još mnogo toga sada kad znamo nešto više nego prije godinu dana; a što nas je više, i mogućnosti su veće...budite dio tih promjena koje želite vidjeti!

Ovim putem vas obavještavamo o dvije velike novosti u radu udruge Održivi otok:
 
1.  Nakon 2 godine rada na dnevnoj bazi i nekoliko odrađenih nacionalnih projekata te internacionalnih edukacija, udruga Održivi otok može sa zadovoljstvom konstatirati kako je u svoju lokalnu zajednicu investirala više od 70.000kn putem Erasmus + programa, Zaklade Kajo Dadić, INA Zeleni Pojas, te Ministarstva regionalnog razvoja i fondova Europske unije.
Na taj način ostvarili smo preduvjete za traženje uredskoga prostora u mjestu Jelsa, te isti dobili na korištenje na dan 7.12.2015. u jednoj od kancelarija unutar zgrade "Depadansa" gdje ćemo nastaviti raditi na povećanju kvalitete života na otocima kroz kulturna, društvena i ekološka događanja. Svoj rad i dalje zasnivamo na volonterskoj bazi, ali s planom zapošljavanja jedne mlade osobe unutar udruge početkom 2016. putem mjere "Mladi za zajednicu" sufinancirane od strane HZZ-a, te konstantnim radom na pronalasku ostalih izvora financiranja putem projektnih aktivnosti nešto ozbiljnijeg karaktera.
Kancelarijski prostor udruge Održivi otok biti će širom otvorenih vrata za sve otočane, a razlog tome je proširenje uredskih djelatnosti na javnu djelatnost imena: LOKALNI INFORMATIVNI CENTAR JELSA.
Otvorenje Lokalnog informativnog centra biti će u nešto veselijem izdanju koji je neizbježan dio održivog razvoja ako nas pitate, a poziv na otvorenje biti će vam uručen putem maila i putem fb stranice udruge Održivi otok.

2.  Udruga Održivi otok po prvi puta prima nove članove i volontere, i to putem on-line obrasca koji možete vidjeti na kraju ovog teksta. Na taj način želimo stvoriti bazu članova i volontera koji će pratiti i podržavati naš rad te sudjelovati u kreiranju budućih aktivnosti. Kroz rad udruge Održivi otok želimo pomoći svim individualcima ili bilo kojem obliku udruženih osoba (udruge,sportski klubovi i sl.) u pronalasku pravog načina da svoje ideje pretvore u smisleni projekt i to putem stručnog savjetovanja ili traženjem informacija na pravom mjestu. Osim toga, putem članarina osigurati ćemo uredno poslovanje vođenja udruge te na taj način postati neovisni i samoodrživi što je također jedan od osnovnih ciljeva udruge Održivi otok.

Izvještaj o Etno Hvar Festivalu na Humcu, 20.06.2015g., napisao Mirko Crnčević za Slobodnu Dalmaciju:

ETNO HVAR FESTIVAL

Povijest u kamenu privukla brojne turiste

Turistička zajednica općine Jelsa, u suradnji s udrugama “Humac”, “Održivi otok” i “Trim”, a uoči svetkovine sv. Ivana i Pavla, na Humcu je organizirala prvi “Etno Hvar festival”, koji je u ovo eko-etno selo (nekoć pastirsko naselje) privukao brojne turiste.

Uz mještane Vrisnika i cijelog otoka Hvara, na nedavno obnovljenom trgu sredstvima EU fondova (Adristorical lands), fešti su se odazvali gosti koji su inače odani Otoku sunca, članovi Udruge “Pjover” i “Tartajun”, te Planinarskog društva “Hvar”, Biciklističkog kluba “Timun”, izviđači OIP-a “Posejdon” iz Splita...

Festival je otvoren pozdravnim govorom općinskog načelnika Nikše Peronje. Posjetitelji su razgledali jedinstvenu Etnozbirku “Humac”, da bi potom krenuli u razgledavanje obližnje Grapčeve špilje, jednog od najstarijih nalazišta hvarske kulture i civilizacije na Jadranu, te novootvorene destilerije aromatičnih ulja na tom putu.

Inače, domaćini su se pobrinuli za prezentaciju tradicionalne kuhinje (slana riba, pršut i sir, jela od divljači i janjetina sa žara), a uz autohtone specijalitete gosti su degustirali i kvalitetna hvarska vina s užeg lokaliteta. Prodavali su se “otočni proizvodi”, upriličena je izložba slika hvarskih umjetnika Pjera Grgičevića i Antuna Tonča Carića, što je popraćeno neizostavnim tradicionalnim napjevima pučkih pjevača iz Vrisnika.

Međutim, u izvrsnom gastroscenariju sudjelovao je i Radovan Marčić, kojeg su svi prepoznavali kao jednog od članova žirija u popularnom gastroshowu “MasterChef Hrvatska”.

‘Ovakva sela naše su blago’

U večernjim satima događaj je uveličao najpoznatiji hrvatski alpinist, putopisac i redatelj dokumentarnih filmova i emisija Stipe Božić koji je predstavio knjigu i film “Ja, Mate svjetski”.

Prije toga nazočne su u ime organizatora pozdravili Irena Dorić (“Održivi otok”) i Ivan Grgičević, koji je podijelio zahvalnice za iznimne zasluge u osnivanju Udruge “Humac” ili za darivanje eksponata Etnozbirci, a dobili su ih Vinko Carić (posthumno), te Mili Razović, Đurđica Otržan i Marija Gurdulić.

– Ovako sačuvana sela kao što je Humac, zapravo su naše blago, jer sve više zaboravljamo kako smo nekada živjeli i kako bismo mogli živjeti, pogotovo sada u spoju s turizmom, kazao je Božić.

ŠKRLEC: Otoci su prirodni i ljudski kapital
humac fest davor nada
Hrvatski otoci su izniman prirodni i ljudski kapital koji moramo sačuvati i dodatno obogatiti, upravo koristeći sve ono što nam pruža EU. Imamo sjajnih primjera zemalja koje su prije nas ušle u EU, jer su one baš zahvaljujući sredstvima i politici EU-a uspjele vratiti, odnosno revitalizirati, pojedine kulturne i tradicionalne vrijednosti koje su možda bile zapostavljene. Dobar je i primjer Humca koji je iskoristio pretpristupne fondove za svoju inicijalnu prepoznatljivost – poručio je naš EU parlamentarac Davor Škrlec (ORaH), koji je s mještanima i posjetiteljima "pretresao" temu "Europska strategija 2020. za održivi razvoj hrvatskih otoka".

  • Exclusive: Economic harm of CO2 pollution from Rosebank and Jackdaw forecast to far outweigh any boost to UK

    The climate damage caused by developing the Rosebank and Jackdaw oil and gas fields under consideration by the UK government would destroy their economic benefits many times over, according to an analysis.

    It estimates the economic damage caused by the carbon pollution from the oil and gas produced would be between £119bn and £336bn in the coming decades, compared with the £28.7bn in value to the UK estimated by Adura, the fossil fuel company promoting the new fields.

  • A local initiative is testing simple ways to stop algal blooms in the River Fal threatening some of England’s most biodiverse marine habitats

    On a rocky beach in Cornwall, a group of wetsuit-clad freedivers and snorkellers are wading into the shallows. Below St Mawes Castle, built by Henry VIII to defend Falmouth harbour, they disappear in a swish of florescent pink and green fins.

    They are volunteers, trained by the Cornwall Wildlife Trust to use underwater cameras and floating GPS devices to detect changes in marine habitats over time.

  • Ynys Môn (Anglesey): The rosy footman is a relative newcomer to this part of Wales, bringing with it nectarine tones and markings like hieroglyphs

    I have a routine in the summer months that I like to keep to as often as I can. That is, to start my day in the company of moths.

    This morning, after a gentle night  – too cloudy to see the flight of Perseid meteors but mild enough to encourage the flight of moths – I head out to my Robinson light trap. It’s 40 years old and somewhat shabby, and sits between the meadow plots in our wildlife garden like a tiny flying saucer. With cuppa to hand, and joined by our familiar robin, who knows this routine well, I examine the live catch.

  • Henry Astor looked back to his grandfather’s time for the inspiration to find older varieties that could help nature on his Cotswold farm

    It is the earliest harvest Henry Astor can remember. But walking through the scorched wheatfields of his Cotswolds farm, signs of life are everywhere – swarms of insects, kaleidoscopic wildflower meadows, bushy hedgerows several metres wide. A yellowhammer perches on a nearby tree.

    There are 18 other red-listed birds on the farm, says Astor, who this year ringed 23 barn owls, three kestrels, two little owls as well as goshawk chicks. “Last winter we had clouds of goldfinch, chaffinch and greenfinch,” he says. Britain has lost 73 million birds since 1970; but at Bruern Farms, a small but welcome reversal is taking shape.

  • True figure likely to be much higher as it only covers about half of continent and does not include August totals

    At least 35,000 more people died during Europe’s four record-breaking, back-to-back heatwaves this summer than would normally be expected, according to incomplete figures from barely half the continent.

    Excess mortality in three of the EU’s larger countries – Germany, France and Spain – alone has already exceeded 25,000, according to the provisional national figures, and experts say the toll will rise significantly once August totals are consolidated.

  • Rise in claims linked to heat-related deaths and illness, especially among older people, could drive up premiums

    Europe’s intense heatwaves could hit insurers’ earnings as companies face a rise in claims linked to heat-related deaths and worsening health conditions, the rating agency S&P has said.

    While a long summer of extreme heat will have increased drought and wildfire-related claims, the rating agency said there would also be fallout for life and health insurers, and for the reinsurers who provide financial protection to insurance companies.

  • Hélène Duguy is taking on companies accused of failing to stop Pfas pollution in the area of France she calls home

    The factories were just part of the landscape for Hélène Duguy growing up in the heart of an area known as France’s “Chemical Valley”.

    “Those factories are visible from my mother’s apartment,” says Duguy, 34, whose mother still lives in St-Genis-Laval, south of Lyon.

  • There are countless initiatives around the world that can inspire people and spur them into action. Amid the devastation of the climate crisis, our journalists strive to highlight these stories of hope

    The news is very often about the bad things (especially if you’re on the Guardian’s environment desk). Wildfires, floods, tipping points, billionaires making huge profits and buying themselves island refuges for the apocalypse … And yet, ticking along beside that is the steady pulse of what the rest of humanity is doing in response to the climate crisis. From housing developments with no cars to buildings made out of hemp, all over the planet, people are ploughing ahead and changing their neighbourhoods and cities and world.

    But as news stories typically need to be about new developments or things people didn’t previously know about, it can be hard to cover all those brilliant initiatives being undertaken in the background – no matter how cheering they are. Which is why, back in 2023, we decided to ignore the usual rules about what constitutes “news” and start writing about them anyway. Readers, we knew, would like to hear about them.

  • MVRDV – the firm behind Marble Arch Mound – says Rotterdam ROCKS! will inspire visitors to live sustainably. But in an era when the greenest building is the one that already exists, this tottering cairn looks set to misfire

    ‘It looks like something Shrek would throw up,” sniffed one online commentator, unflatteringly comparing Rotterdam ROCKS!, the recently unveiled proposal for a waterfront site in Europe’s largest port, with the vomitings of a cartoon ogre. Designed by Dutch architectural firm MVRDV, which gave London the supremely underwhelming Marble Arch Mound in 2021, Rotterdam ROCKS! (the use of EMPHATIC CAPITALS connoting an in-your-face energy) is the winner of a major architectural competition intended to create “a new world wonder”.

    But instead of a modern Hanging Gardens of Babylon or contemporary Colossus of Rhodes, MVRDV’s super slick renderings depict a pile of artificial “rocks” (or ROCKS!) stacked together in a humongously scaled tottering cairn, wreathed in suspiciously luxuriant foliage and sluiced by a preposterous waterfall.

  • New documentary To Use a Mountain spotlights the pain and triumph of resisting government efforts to turn parts of rural US into disposal sites

    Nuclear energy was supposed to be our salvation, humanity’s chance to retool technology first conceived as a weapon of mass destruction into an engine of limitless prosperity. But even as the industry touted nuclear fission as an economic game-changer (never mind the astronomical startup costs), a safety paragon (never mind the spills at Chornobyl, Three Mile Island and Fukushima) and harmless fodder for an American comedy institution (never mind that glowing rod on Homer’s back or the three-eyed fish), there was no getting around the matter of what to do with all the toxic waste (never mind nuclear’s claimed green credentials).

    The stagnant state of that dirty business brought Casey Carter, the director of the new avant-garde documentary called To Use a Mountain, back to his interview with a Washington state farmer who was part of a class-action lawsuit against the government over the release of radioactive material from the Hanford nuclear reservation – site of the world’s first full-scale plutonium production reactor. The farmer’s words still echo, despite ultimately being cut to fit the film’s 90-minute runtime. “He joked that nuclear power is the only faith-based energy because everyone always asks, ‘Do you believe in it?’” Carter says. “He was like, ‘You don’t have to believe in solar. It’s just a pretty good idea.’”
