Luki je pronašao prve orhideje!

Luki je jedan od najsretnijih pasa otoka Hvara i jedan od najvećih hvarskih ljubitelja prirode. 15. ožujka nanjušio je rane orhideje nedaleko od Vrboske.

Luki je uvijek u potrazi za lijepim cvijećem a rani ožujak je vrijeme kada skromno cvijeće počne pokazivati svoje boje. Uočivši 6. ožujka na svojim šetnjama diskretne biljke Iris tuberosa, uživao je i na livadi divljih cvjetova prepunu divljih anenima.

8. ožujka odlučio je da će savršen poklon damama za Međunarodni dan žena biti divlje šparoge - kuhanjem će imati što činiti!

Zatim je 15. ožujka po prvi put ove godine opazio orhideju.

Frank Verhart, ljubitelj orhideja, još nam je jednom vrlo ljubazno napravio identifikaciju:  “pretpostavio bih da je ovo Ophrys liburnica s obzirom da je ovo jedna od najranijih vrsta. Jedna fotografija prikazuje visoku biljku u punom cvatu sredinom ožujka. Ovo samo po sebi gotovo isključuje ostale vrste. Kada sam 2015. prolazio pored Vrboske, primijetio sam da je ovo jedna od učestalijih vrsta u tom području. Ophrys liburnica opisana je 2004. godine i prethodno smatrana običnim Ophrys sfegodama (rana Kokica paučica) koji se pojavljuju sjeverno do Engleske (litice Dover).

Pišući dok pandemija gripe Covid-19 zahvaća Europu i zaustavlja sve društvene i komercijalne aktivnosti, Franka rastužuje šteta koju ljudi nanose planetu te općeniti nedostatak brige za prirodu i divlje životinje. Nije jedini. U mjestima i gradovima situacija je za mnoge gotovo nepodnošljiva. Na Hvaru je kriza zahvatila stanovništvo, ali u manjoj mjeri, jer je prostora više a ljudi je manje. Otočani su osobito ponosni načinom na koji se ministar zdravstva, Dr. Vili Beroš, rodom iz Jelse, nosi s krizom uvodeći logične (i stroge) kontrolne mjere istovremeno zadržavajući mirnoću dok je posve realan i otvoren glede neizbježnog širenja bolesti. Tijekom Domovinskog rata 1991.-1995. godine, Dr. Beroš, tada mladi neurokirurg, pokazivao je jednake kvalitete predanosti i humanosti prema velikom broju ozbiljno bolesnih i ranjenih pacijenata bolnice sestara Milosrdnica u Zagrebu. Njegovo imenovanje ministrom zdravstva došlo je u pravo vrijeme jer je zasigurno spasio Hrvatsku od nekih od najgorih učinaka virusa Covid-19 iako se širenje istog ne može zaustaviti.

Uz pokoju žestoku oluju, početak 2020. godine na Hvaru uglavnom je bio blag, pružajući smirenu atmosferu kao protutežu bilo kakvoj panici koja se uzdizala kako se pandemija bližila. Sunce sja a proljetna ljepota otoka neprestano se razvija. Luki istražuje hvarska sela, igrajući se s najboljim prijateljima i suputnicima Špirom i Đurom, istovremeno ukazujući na velike darove prirode.

Ovo je doba godine kada se Hvar može doživjeti u njegovom najboljem izdanju, što Luki itekako zna!

Stijene na hvarskim padinama vrlo se jasno ističu.

 Za pogled na hvarsko more treba se malo namučiti. Luki se snalazi u svom naumu i živi dan po dan, ali možda, samo možda, želi i nada se da će ljetno kupanje ubrzo biti dio dnevnog programa!

Izrazito smo zahvalni Lukiju i njegovom dvonožnom “roditelju” Ivici što dijele svoje sretne trenutke s nama i ostatkom svijeta. Lukijev blistavi osmjeh osvijetli i najmračniji dan za što je uvelike zaslužna ljubaznost i briga koju mu je Ivica pružio od trenutka kada ga je spasio života na lancu.

  • Energy secretary says countries must work together during conference at which US delegate called net zero ‘dangerous’

    Britain will find “common ground” with the US on energy and the economy including on nuclear power, despite differences over climate policy, the UK energy secretary, Ed Miliband, has pledged.

    He was speaking at the close of a two-day, 60-country conference in London on energy security, hosted by the government and the International Energy Agency (IEA), at which the US delegate Tommy Joyce attacked net zero policies as “dangerous” and “damaging”, and said it was in the interests of “our adversaries”.

  • Trees are being cleared for rainforest mega-event – but state governor says a ‘new history’ is under way

    Fake metal trees have been set into the concrete ground of the Amazonian host city of this year’s climate summit, prompting scandalised contrasts with the once-living vegetation that has been cleared in preparation for Cop30 in Brazil.

    But in an unlikely convergence of views, both the centre-right state governor and leftwing social movements insist this is a storm in a plant pot compared with the darkening geopolitical threats to the world’s biggest diplomatic gathering, which will take place in November in Belém.

  • Transforming a former industrial area in Sweden will bring psychological benefits for future residents and reduce construction’s climate impact

    Although activity is high, it is surprisingly quiet inside the construction site of a high school extension in Sickla, a former industrial area in south Stockholm that is set to become part of the “largest mass timber project in the world” according to the Swedish urban property developer Atrium Ljungberg.

    Just a few months remain until students enter the premises, but there is no sound of drilling or pounding against concrete walls. The scent of wood is unmistakable, and signs of the material can be spotted everywhere – from glulam (glued laminated timber) columns and beams in the building’s frame to cross-laminated timber (CLT) slabs in the floors, ceilings and staircases. CLT, made by gluing together layers of planed wood into panels, offers strength and rigidity comparable to concrete but is significantly lighter and quicker to build with.

  • Employees of water firms who obstruct investigations into spills could face jail under new rules that come into force on Friday

    Water company bosses have entirely escaped punishment for covering up illegal sewage spills, government figures show, as ministers prepare to bring in a new law threatening them with up to two years in prison for doing so.

    Only three people have ever been prosecuted for obstructing the Environment Agency in its investigations into sewage spills, officials said, and none received even a fine.

  • Authorities warn of mudslides during intense rainfall, as Kenya is hit by deadly flash flooding

    After Storm Hans battered northern Italy in the runup to Easter, severe weather continued to lash much of the country this week. Since Tuesday, the conditions have triggered potent showers and thunderstorms, and yellow and orange weather warnings have been issued.

    With winds generally remaining light this week, the greatest concerns surround the risks from intense rainfall, as slow-moving heavy showers can deliver a prolonged downpour to a fairly localised area. The authorities have warned people to avoid high-risk areas such as roads with steep embankments amid a threat of flash flooding and mudslides.

  • The Anohni and the Johnsons singer is collaborating with marine scientists for two special shows at Sydney’s Vivid festival that will show the reef’s plight

    Anohni Hegarty is about to go to the Great Barrier Reef for the first time. “I feel like I’m going to Auschwitz,” she says nervously. “On the one hand, I’m so excited to go because the landscape is so beautiful, and I know there’s going to be so much that’s gorgeous. And yet, I’m also scared.”

    In a week, the British-born, New York-based avant garde singer of Anohni and the Johnsons is flying to Lizard Island, a paradise of powdery sands on the reef, 1,600km north-west of Brisbane. Its luxury villas and bluest of blue waters are a stark contrast to the grim nature of Anohni’s assignment: documenting the current state of the world’s biggest coral reef.

  • Some households aren’t suited to solar – but do batteries make environmental or financial sense on their own?

    Many people want to reduce their carbon footprint but for various reasons can’t install solar panels. Some roofs face the wrong way, others are overshadowed or subject to heritage restrictions, and apartment blocks often lack space.

    Landlords are also often reluctant to install solar systems in rental properties since the benefits flow to the tenants rather than the property owner.

  • Hurricane Katrina: Mississippi Remembers captures the grief and resilience of survivors in the Magnolia state

    Twenty years ago this August, the United States Gulf coast was irrevocably changed when Hurricane Katrina, one of the deadliest and costliest storms to ever hit the country, made landfall. Making landfall as a strong category 3, the storm, which was so vast it stretched the length of the Mississippi Gulf coast all the way into Alabama, hit the Mississippi-Louisiana coastal border before continuing northward.

    Since then, superstorms fueled by the climate crisis have become relatively commonplace in the country, but the impact of Katrina endures to this day. Immediately following the storm, the country and world were enthralled by tragic stories out of New Orleans, where the levees failed to a catastrophic effect and the local, state and federal responses were disastrous. But Mississippi, which received the maximum impact from the storm surge, was largely left out of the national narrative around Katrina.
