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?

  • Ministers urged to go further than proposed cut to 110 decibels to ease acute stress on birds and others animals

    Campaigners are calling on the UK government to protect the welfare of wild animals by cutting the maximum noise level of fireworks sold to the public from 120 to 90 decibels.

    The Center for Wild Animal Welfare (CWAW) has said lowering the limit to 90dB – which is about one-eighth of the loudness of 120dB – would help to protect millions of wild animals from acute stress by reducing the area over which a firework disturbs surrounding wildlife.

  • British Veterinary Association president tells MPs surge in cases putting farmers under severe pressure and stress

    The worst bluetongue season on record has been a major animal welfare crisis in Great Britain, MPs have been told, putting farmers under “severe emotional stress”.

    Bluetongue, a viral disease that affects sheep, cattle and goats, can cause fever, lesions, stillbirths and death. The tongue may go blue and protrude from the mouth.

  • Researchers find the birds’ guano feeds algal blooms that absorb significantly more solar energy

    Penguin poo is making the Antarctic snow melt faster, a study shows. As temperatures rise, penguins are waddling closer to the south pole, with potential for this previously unrecognised phenomenon to affect a wider area.

    Snow algae are tiny single-celled plants that make a home in some of the coldest places on Earth. When nutrients are scarce, the algae produces red pigments to protect itself from the sun and slow growth.

  • Farmers in Gurez store their harvests underground to last the Himalayan winter. As the practice fades, local varieties and handed-down skills are disappearing too

    Hajra Begum rolls a potato in her hands, checking its skin for cuts, soft spots and signs of rot. After a day harvesting in her family’s field in Chorwan, a remote mountain village in Gurez, Indian-administered Kashmir, she is sorting the crop for winter storage. Some of the potatoes will feed her family through the cold months; others will be saved for planting in spring.

    “It should be perfect for planting,” she says. “If you keep a bad potato, you will waste the whole next year.”

  • Frome, Somerset: Dippers and fritillaries and pink campion … there is a deep satisfaction in accumulating associations with a regular haunt

    Enchantment surely fills the eyes of first-time visitors who come upon this little stone bridge over the stream. Do they marvel at the judgment of hands in building, wedding rock with rock, face against face? Do they arrive on a brighter morning than this, one on which sunbeams chase each other under the arch and cast sparkling reflections of water on the underside? Does their pulse quicken watching the brook breaking out of its tunnel and skittering over the pebbled bed, hastening through even in times of sluggish drought?

    Me? I see a bird that isn’t there.

  • Guardian and Mongabay reveal approaches to officials and MPs on behalf of Vantara zoo ahead of UK-chaired Cites meeting on endangered animal imports

    British government ministers were told not to engage formally with Vantara, the controversial mega-zoo run by the Indian billionaire Anant Ambani, after lobbying efforts by the private animal sanctuary in the run-up to a UK-chaired meeting on the trade in endangered species, according to documents.

    This week, the UK heads a 32-country committee meeting in Geneva of Cites, the United Nations body that regulates trade in endangered species. The meeting will examine how India has responded to compliance concerns about imports of endangered animals.

  • Cop30 host sets out steps to break link with coal, oil and gas as it aims to move focus from negotiating to implementing

    All countries can start to break their dependence on fossil fuels now without needing to wait for new technologies or economic changes, Brazil’s government has said ahead of a global climate summit.

    Brazil, the host of last year’s UN climate conference, set out the world’s first global “roadmap” for phasing out fossil fuels on Tuesday, showing that countries could boost their economies and pull people out of poverty while breaking the link with coal, oil and gas.

  • With globe-spanning artists – including Charlotte Church doing angry electropop – the Flow project is hoping to make an impact at this month’s Cop31

    Amid tense and long-winded negotiations, and with the future of the planet at stake, emotions can often run high at Cop climate summits. But last year, when the annual conference arrived in Brazil, one UN official was unexpectedly moved to tears by five women singing about the power of water.

    “She gave me a massive hug after the event and said, ‘We need to bring music into Cop,’” says Nikita Llerena, the project manager for Flow, a music collective that’s hoping to bring art to the centre of the climate movement. What started as a handful of musicians meeting over Zoom last year has grown into a full-length album that unites female artists from around the world, including Charlotte Church, Maxine Peake and Nadine Shah. This month, members of the collective will return for Cop31, in Turkey, where they have been promoted to a slot at Global Cultural Action’s opening event.

  • Scientist Adalberto Luis Val’s pioneering research on the tambaqui fish is revealing the effect of climate disruption in Brazil, with global implications for biodiversity and food security

    As a boy in rural São Paulo, Adalberto Luis Val used to stare into the lake where his father took him fishing and wonder how all those creatures swimming below stayed alive. One day, he netted a few, put them in a jar, and brought them home to observe. The next morning, they were all dead. Val was devastated but intrigued.

    “I needed to know how fish are able to live,” he says.
