Uspjeh hvarske djece, Eco Hvar zahvaljuje!

Objavljeno u Zanimljivosti

Djeca do kojima je stalo čine veliku razliku u svijetu oko njih. Sjajno je što ih imamo na Hvaru.

Uspjeh hvarske djece, Eco Hvar zahvaljuje!
U kolovozu 2019. iznenadili su nas, počastili i oduševili ovdje u Eko Hvaru ponudivši nam zaradu od sajma/izložbe organizirane za pomoć napuštenim životinjama na Hvaru. Projekt je bio zamisao samo dviju djevojčica - Kai Balent (10) i Tonke Boellard (8).

Sve je krenulo jednog dana kada su na plaži zamjetile mnogo smeća oko sebe. Skupile su ga i počele smišljati na koje bi još načine mogle pomoći boljitku otoka Hvara. Budući da su ljubiteljice životinja, privukla ih je ideja da prikupe novac za životinje lutalice. Odlučno su se namjerile na ovaj izazov organiziravši radionicu sa svojim vršnjacima i prijateljima kako bi izradili raznovrsne ručno-rađene tvorevine koje će prodavati na predloženom sajmu. U malo i kratko proizveli su prekrasnu kolekciju šarenih i sa stilom izrađenih suvenira.

Isto tako, osmislile su i promotivne materijale za plakate i internet.
Kai, Tonka i njihove kolege minimalnu su pomoć tražili od odraslih. Jedina intervencija odraslih bilo je obračanje Eko Hvaru od strane Kaine mame Jelene kako bi nas upitala želimo li prihvatiti zaradu od sajma/izložbe. To je bilo 14. kolovoza kada su svi materijali već bili pripremljeni a projekt spreman. Naravno da smo bili oduševljeni.
Sajam se održao u prostorijama PlarFORme* u gradu Hvaru u ponedjeljak 18. kolovoza. Vrlo brzo se premjestila iz izložbene prostorije na rivu ispred zgrade gdje je privukao pažnju velikog broja dobronamjernika, lokalnog stanovništva i posjetitelja. Potpredsjednica Eko Hvara kratko se obratila s opisom rada udruge te izrazila duboku zahvalnost svima koji su bili uključeni u projekt a osobito dvoje mladih pokretača.

Projekt je svakako bio uspješan. Kada nam je Jelena opisivala predloženi sajam, kazala je kako vjerojatno neće prikupiti mnogo novca. Sajam je, što od prodaje, što od donacija, uprihodio 2.346,40 kn. Zarada je slijedećeg dana uplaćena na račun Eko Hvara na kojemu predstavlja značajan doprinos našoj udruzi koja u potpunosti ovisi o donacijama.

Svi smo bili i više nego zahvalni što je ova sjajna dječja inicijativa usmjerena ka Eko Hvaru obzirom da je ovo tek drugi događaj za prikupljanje sredstava koji se održao u našu korist, nakon jednako uspješnog “Koncerta za nas” održanog u Jelsi 14.10.2018. godine.
Najveće zadovoljstvo dobili smo od energije, entuzijazma i vještine koju su pokazala ova vrlo sposobna djeca. Apatija u Hrvatskoj može se sažeti u jednom izrazu “to je tako” što nagovještava kontekst “nije vrijedno truda, ne možemo ništa promijeniti”.
Svojim primjerom Kai, Tonka i njihovi suradnici pokazali su da ne prihvaćaju svi mladi ovakav način razmišljanja, naprotiv! Spremni su uložiti mnogo napora u pozitivne promjene i dobra djela. Dobro je znati da je naša budućnost sigurna u njihovim rukama!

  • How growing up in ‘Chemical Valley’ inspired lawyer to sue industry she used to work for

    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.

  • Air conditioning push favoured over emissions cuts in six European nations, survey finds

    Poll also finds sizeable majorities who believe it should be easier to install air con in homes

    Given the choice, more people across six major European nations including the UK favour encouraging the adoption of air conditioning over keeping carbon emissions down, a survey has found.

    After four extreme heatwaves that have caused thousands of excess deaths across the continent, the survey showed between 30% and 52% of people in six countries had feared for their household’s health in temperatures close to or above 40C (104F).

  • Country diary: South Wales’s summer of fires will linger long in the memory | Eben Muse

    Tylorstown, Rhondda Valley: These coal areas are shaped by fire and ash. I find a high point to try and survey the damage

    My friend John and I are climbing Tylorstown Tip – a summit also known as Old Smokey, named after the hot ash it was partly made with. We want to see how much of south Wales has burned.

    The tip towers over the surrounding hills, a perfect crow’s nest from which to witness the blackening of the region. From the summit, with its sitka spruce and flowering heather, the expanse of St Gwynno’s forest spreads out before us, all 6,533 acres of it. Browned, dead plantation forestry gives way to grassland burned to cinder. A veil of smoke lies above the forest for miles.

  • ‘I love it. It’s hope’: the mysterious self-willed wildflower meadow that seeded itself

    Farmer Derek Sayer let a boggy field run wild and just one annual hay-cut has led to remarkable biodiversity

    Tucked away on a country lane, a small field bursts with yellow and pink flowers. Quail and whitethroats call from the thick hedges and the plants, including common centaury, yellow rattle and marsh and common spotted orchids, bounce with hoverflies and butterflies.

    More than 150 plant species have been recorded on Sayer’s Old Meadow, in north Norfolk, England, which is remarkable when there was just one – oilseed rape – growing there 21 years ago.

  • London’s low emission zone is working – so why are cities around the world so cautious about clean air?

    Similar initiatives have been launched from Barcelona to Bogotá, but they have misinformation, political pressure and vested interests stacked against them

    Ten years ago, Alastair Harper was an advocate for young people’s health sitting in a stuffy meeting room in London planning an air pollution campaign. “My phone started buzzing,” he said. “I took the call, and then told the room I needed to leave immediately.

    “I had to get to UCLH [one of London’s major hospitals]. My own child was headed there in a blue-lit ambulance because she was struggling to breathe London’s toxic air.”

  • Going with the grain: how restoring biodiversity led one farmer back to heritage wheat

    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.

  • Devastation, doubt and blame: Hurricane Helene looms over North Carolina’s US Senate race

    The Democratic and the Republican candidate each blame the other for the bungled recovery effort after storm struck region

    Two years after North Carolina suffered the worst natural disaster in its history when Hurricane Helene struck the state’s western half, life in the hardest-hit areas appears back to normal. Downtowns are lively, blocked roads have been reopened and rivers are flowing below their banks.

    But the telltale evidence of the disaster’s expensive impacts can still be seen – from “for rent” signs in storefronts whose businesses never came back to debris from the storm still lurking in some waterways. And in the race for North Carolina’s US Senate seat, it’s almost as if the hurricane never left.

  • No fridge, no fans, just blocks of ice: improvising to survive in Pakistan’s searing heat

    With limited electricity and poor ventilation, many families in Nasirabad have little to shield them from temperatures of up to 50C

    As the first light reaches Nasirabad, a queue of men, women and children has already formed outside the town’s ice factory, with their buckets, sacks and plastic containers. Among those hoping to buy some ice to help their families endure another scorching day is 12-year-old Taimoor, in his school uniform. He says it is his most important task of the day.

    “If I do not bring the ice, how will we endure the heat at home?” he says. “And how will we drink water that feels as though it is boiling?”
