U POMOĆ MOLIM - PODRŽAVATE INICIJATIVU,  POTPIŠETE PETICIJU 'SAVE HVAR'S CATS!' NA CHANGE.ORG

Prijedlog za mirno rješenje problema trovanja mačaka na Hvaru.

Uvod: Imidž turističke destinacije ovisi o više faktora, među njima ponašanje građana prema životinjama. Više od godinu dana neki ljudi u Hvaru bez milosti truju i ubiju mačke u Gradu Hvaru, bez obzira na imidž njihovog mjesta, a gosti su otišli zbog stravičnih prizora mrtvih mačaka koji plutaju u moru gdje ljudi se kupaju. I u drugim mjestima na Hvaru ljudi znaju otrovati mačke.

Zašto spasiti mačke? Imidž mjesta nije jedini niti glavni razlog za tražiti način na kojem se može zaustaviti ubijanje mačaka. Mačke su korisne životinje: love miševe, štakore, zmije i druge štetnike. U pravim uvjetima su samostalne i čiste.

Razumije se da nismo svi isti, nismo svi ljubitelji životinja. U društvu moramo živjeti mirno zajedno, i moramo poštivati zakone: ubijanje i zlostavljanje životinja po Članku 205. Kaznenog zakona (NN 125/2011.) su kaznena djela.

Nije prihvatljivo da vlasnici mačaka pate zbog mučenja i gubitaka svojih ljubimaca; da gosti, pogotovo djeca, vide grozne prizore mačaka u mukama; da interesi iznajmljivača budu ugroženi zbog ilegalnog djelovanja nekih ljudi; da policija, lokalne zajednice i pojedinci moraju izgubiti vrijeme, resurse (i živce) da bi spriječili akcije ubijanja, skupili dokaze i dignuli tužbe protiv osumnjičenih.

Zašto ljudi njih ubiju? Neki ljudi mrze životinje, često bez posebnog razloga. Nekima smetaju neke navike kod divljih zapuštenih mačaka, naime nekontrolirano parenje; galama kad mužjaci se tuku zbog ženki; i smrad od izmeta.

Projekt za spašavanje mačaka

Glavne točke:

1. Program sterilizacije mačaka. Taj program već funkcionira na Hvaru - i neke mačke koje su otrovane u Gradu Hvaru zadnjih mjeseci su bile sterilizirane, šta je veća šteta.

2. Stvoriti hranilišta za mačke na više mjesta, uz mjesta za nuždu (pjesak, zemlja u kutijama ako nema prirodnog mjesta).

3. Dati poticaj firmama i ljudima koji sudjeluju u projektu.

4. Voditi kampanju edukacije za mlade i odrasle, kako se može i mora brinuti za životinje, i zašto.

5. Dati do znanja preko plakata i obavijesti da lokalne vlasti će sudjelovati u akcijama za dovesti okrivljenike na sud ako krše zakon i muče ili ubiju mačke.

6. Izabrati slogan i/ili logo za projekt

Kako će projekt funkcionirati?

1. Program sterilizacije će se nastaviti: u početku projekta bi moglo biti veći broj mačaka za operaciju, jer bi bilo lakše uhvatiti ulične mačke.

2. Lokalna vlast će izabrati mjesta za hranilišta, i će biti odgovorna za čištoće tih lokacija, uz pomoć Udruga te pojedinaca prijatelja životinja.

3. Financiranje će biti uglavnom preko donacija i sponzorstvo: npr. novčane donacije će ići preko proračuna lokalne vlasti, i / ili u poseban račun kod Udruga za životinje; firme, pogotovo dučani, mogu donirati mačiju hranu; u dučanima, mogu biti kutije za donacije hrane u kojim kupci mogu ostaviti suhu hranu ili konzerve.

4. Svi zainteresirani koji hoće promovirati svoje mjesto na najbolji način će moći sudjelovati u projektu, npr. hoteli, restorani, kafići, barovi, turističke agencije itd., uz naravno pojedince. Svi koji su pružili dokazanu pomoć projektu bi mogli dobiti posebno priznanje za rad u navedenoj godini, npr. kad se slavi Dan grada ili Dan općine.

5. Kampanja edukacije bi mogla biti kroz radionice i volonterski rad sa uličnim mačkama.

6. Lokalne vlasti će staviti reklame u javnim prostorima i na internetu, naime na portalima i Facebook stranici.

7. Slogan / logo bi mogli biti predmet natječaja po školama.

8. U svakom mjestu gdje će projekt biti proveden, lokalna vlast će stvoriti upravni odbor za voditi akcije.

  • Analysis shows how heatwaves are making atmosphere thirstier, damaging water supplies, food production and power generation

    Extreme heat supercharged by the climate crisis is sucking Europe dry in summer and intensifying the drought hitting the continent, a scientific analysis has found.

    Record-breaking heatwaves meant the hot atmosphere strongly evaporated water from rivers, lakes, soils and plants – conditions made 80 times more likely by global heating in western Europe and 40 times more likely in eastern Europe, the study showed. The level of soil dryness in the west was made five times more likely by the pollution from fossil fuels in the west, and 11 times more likely in the east.

  • Scientists believe sunfish-smashing behaviour could be form of entertainment or to help younger whales feed

    Orcas have been observed ramming into giant fish so hard that the prey explode, possibly as a form of gory entertainment.

    On several occasions, orcas were observed to hold sunfish in their jaws while a second whale smashed into the target at high speed, causing it to break into thousands of pieces. Since the fish had already been killed, scientists suggested the behaviour may represent a form of play.

  • In Guatemala’s Maya biosphere reserve local people are making a living from trees at the same time as increasing forest cover, showing nature is best protected by those who depend on it

    The low rumbling grows louder until a huge harvester crashes into the open, dragging a 15-metre trunk of mahogany in its wake. The tractor manoeuvres before releasing its load and shovelling it like a matchstick on to a growing pile of lumber at the edge of the clearing. Then, with a crunch of gears and a belch of diesel, it turns and lurches back into the forest.

    This is sustainable forestry at its most brutal, yet in a few weeks’ time silence will return to this pocket of tropical forest in Guatemala’s Maya biosphere reserve (MBR). Nature will be left to reclaim the land and chainsaws won’t return for at least four years, as part of a strict management plan that is helping to buck the trend of rampant deforestation.

  • While many people in the UK recognise the need to preserve water, others are furious and planning to flout the ban in their area. The target of their anger? Failing water companies and frighteningly thirsty datacentres

    ‘Plants are like your babies,” says Harry. And accordingly, he argues, most people would do anything to keep them alive, including break the law. This is what he plans to do this week – defying a hosepipe ban in place across large parts of England, to ensure his shrubs maintain a steady pulse.

    He may not be alone. On Tuesday, Thames Water became the latest company to ban hosepipes – a restriction that will affect more than 10 million people. Since mid-July, Welsh Water, Anglian Water, Affinity Water (serving Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Surrey), Southern Water and Cambridge Water have all announced hosepipe bans. And earlier this week, South East Water extended its existing ban to cover an additional 1.5 million.

  • Shipping routes opened by climate change mean more industrial pollutants in the air

    The gradual reduction in Arctic ice has started to open up new shipping routes, with marine traffic increasing by about 40% over the past 12 years. All these ships leave trails of pollutants in the air, which are already having a measurable climate effect.

    Aerosol particles in engine exhaust act as nuclei for water droplets, promoting cloud formation. Like aircraft, ships may leave contrails behind them in the sky.

  • The Marches, Shropshire: Eyebrights are ancient herbs used to cure eye problems, but they also penetrate grass roots to siphon off water and nutrients

    A sight for sore eyes. Eyebrights flower in the short turf of Old Racecourse Common as sunlight burns a hole through rowan trees to cast sunset colours on the grass. The eyebrights are annuals with tiny flowers, 4mm-11mm long with a violet vibe, a white corolla with purple marks and a central flash of yellow.

    There are about 20 British eyebright species, some of which are endemic. Their genetic complexity makes them an arcane group of plants and a taxonomic puzzle to all but their most dedicated acolytes. “Life’s too short to key out [make a precise identification of] eyebrights,” one botanist told me.

  • Up to 25 tonnes of nurdles, the raw material for plastic manufacturing, have spread further than initially feared

    Approximately a billion tiny plastic nurdles have entered the River Tyne after a “devastating spill”, with the pellets thought to have spread much further than first thought.

    Nurdles, which are usually 1mm-5mm in size, act as the raw material to manufacture most plastic products.

  • Experts weigh in on wellness culture’s obsession with natural fibers and the growing trend of people shunning plastic-based clothing

    A few months ago, Lane Koch made a decision: she would purge her family’s closets of all plastic-based fabrics and replace them with natural fibers, such as cotton and linen.

    Koch, a longtime Republican political strategist who was a senior staffer on Robert F Kennedy Jr’s presidential campaign, has long avoided processed foods and rid her kitchen of plastic cookware about a decade ago. But, for all that she cared about what she put in her body, she told me she had paid little attention to what she put on her body.

  • Despite official claims that the São Francisco River project supplies 12m people, many of those who had to make way for its construction in 2007 still have no water at all

    A concrete canal cutting through the Caatinga scrubland feeds a surface reservoir two and a half miles from Maria de Fátima Ferreira da Silva’s home in rural Brazil. The canal passes Sertânia and continues until it reaches Monteiro, the next town along, where it spills its precious cargo into the bed of the Paraíba River – a human-directed inflow into the seasonally dry waterway.

    Such proximity to a reliable water source would usually be considered a blessing in the sertão, a vast outback in Brazil’s north-east known for its punishing droughts. But not for Ferreira, who was displaced nearly 20 years ago by the construction of the canal and now lives in a house without any water supply, despite the nearby reservoir.
