Početkom listopada se sv. Franju Asiškog slavilo u Franjevačkom samostanu Gospe od milosti u Hvaru, ispred kojeg se gotovo svakog dana vjernici i posjetitelji dive monumentalnom kipu sveca (u adoraciji), radu predstojnika samostana – fratra zlatnih ruku Joakima Jakija Gregova, ali i u Sućurju, gdje u tamošnjoj, te župama Bogomolje i Gdinj svoje dužnosti obavljaju franjevci provincije Bosne Srebrene (fra Stipo Marčinković i fra Agustin Tomas). No, od ove godine na Otoku sunca je uveden i jedan sasvim novi običaj, svečanoj proslavi se pridružila i Udruga "Eco Hvar" budući da je sv. Franjo Asiški zapravo zaštitnik okoliša i životinja.

Inače, pokret za obilježavanje Svjetskog dana životinja (4. listopada) pojavio se u Njemačkoj još 1924. godine, a službeno proglašen 1931. na konvenciji ekologa u Firenci, s težnjom da se ljude upozori na važnost životinja i čovjekova odnosa prema njima. Učinjeno je to jer po podacima svjetskih organizacija svaki dan izumru deseci životinjskih vrsta, a najugroženije su morske kornjače, gorile, pande, slonovi, kitovi, tigrovi, pa čak mačke i neke pasmine pasa.

▪ Moram istaknuti da na dobrobit životinja moramo misliti tijekom cijele godine zbog sve većih i većih potreba. Primjerice u kolovozu je kod Milne netko neodgovoran čak 10 štenaca bacio u kontejner. Našli su ih neki turisti, ali ih je nažalost već šest bilo uginulo. Doista ružna slika za destinaciju kao što je otok Hvar, ostale su pokušali spasiti donošenjem nama u Udrugu, međutim, bili su premali i svi su uginuli u roku od nekoliko dana. Mi bismo htjeli pomoći vlasniku te jadne kuje koja je na svijet donijela neželjene male psiće da bi je on sterilizirao. Izgubiti svoju novorođenu mladunčad veliki je šok i najveća tuga kao i za svaku drugu majku, osobito neposredno nakon okota. Strašno je mučiti jadnu kuju, ili bilo koju životinju, na taj način – kazala je Vivian Grisogono, predsjednica Udruge.

Napuštaju se čak i lovački psi

Zlostavljanjem i ubijanjem životinja krše se odredbe Kaznenoga zakona RH (članak 205.) i to prijavljuje nadležnoj Policijskoj postaji ili pisanim putem direktno Općinskom državnom odvjetništvu. Kroz ljeto je zabilježen veći broj slučajeva napuštenih i zapuštenih pasa, među kojima bilo dosta i onih lovačkih, čime se također krši Zakon o zaštiti životinja RH, a prijave podnose nadležnoj Županijskoj veterinarskoj inspekciji. Udruga je na takve slučajeve reagirala kada je god to mogla i većinom su dobro završavali.

Vlasnicima koji više ne žele zadržati svoje ljubimce preporučuje se da potraže nove udomitelje, čak im je i Udruga spremna u tome pomoći ukoliko to ikako može. Tako je u nekoliko slučajeva pomagala kad su se bili izgubili psi od turista, odveli bi ih kod veterinara i provjerili čip, te su nakon toga pronašli vlasnike. Ipak, najbolje bi bilo da vlasnici pasa dodatno stave i etiketu na ogrlicu s brojem mobitela vlasnika. I naravno psi bi u naseljenim mjestima trebali biti pod nadzorom i na uzici, po potrebi i s brnjicom, pogotovo kad je dolaze u novo nepoznato mjesto.

▪ Ove godine je "Eco Hvar" uspjela spasiti pet pasa koji su neko vrijeme bili kod nas, uspješno smo ih smjestili u nove domove. Tri su završila u Njemačkoj preko NO Kill Skloništa u Kaštel Sućurcu, koji je ostvario odlične i učinkovite veze s nekim njemačkim udrugama i volonterima. Slike iz tih njihovih novih domova pokazuju da je sve prošlo očekivano, te da su oni danas doista sretni kućni ljubimci - s velikom zahvalnošću je rekla gospođa Grisogono, napomenuvši da je njihova Udruga puno učinila i na planu zaštite okoliša kao što su prijedlozi za manje (kontrolirano) korištenje pesticida i herbicida u poljodjelstvu, odvojeno prikupljanje otpada u mjestima..., a Svjetski dan zaštite životinja su proslavili s optimizmom, jer se nada da će gradonačelnici i općinski načelnici s otoka Hvara napokon shvatiti da je na škoju potrebno izgraditi jedan odgovarajući azil za životinje pri čemu će oni svakako dati maksimalan suport.

  • Ministers set out plans for outlawing neonicotinoids but considering application by farmers to use Cruiser SB

    Bee-killing pesticides are to be banned by the UK government, as ministers set out plans to outlaw the use of neonicotinoids.

    However, the highly toxic neonicotinoid Cruiser SB could be allowed for use next year, as ministers are considering applications from the National Farmers’ Union and British Sugar.

  • Protester Anna Holland says their shock at being behind bars was quickly followed by a stronger feeling of power

    Anna Holland, 22, was one of two young peoplefrom Just Stop Oil who threw tomato soup overa sunflowers painting by Vincentvan Gogh – one of thehighest-profile climate protests of recent years. The painting was not damaged, although there was damage to the frame.Holland was sentenced to 20 months in prison.They sent this letter to the Guardian abouttheir experiencebehind bars.

    It was a shock at first that the judge had gone to the extreme of our sentence. The first few days and nights in prison were hard but also such an education. So many of the women I have met here are in prison because they were not properly protected by the state, so they have taken me under their wing. I have been looked after, taught the ways of prison, not by the staff but by the other prisoners. It is like nothing I had expected and it is completely overwhelming – but also surprising how quickly I found myself falling into the daily routine.

  • As the deadly fungal disease tightens its grip, scientific efforts to protect ash trees are advancing

    The UK is home to more than 100m mature ash trees, and every spring tells the same grim story: leaves emerge, wither and drop within weeks, as ash dieback disease tightens its grip.

    Millions stand dead in woodlands and hedgerows across the British Isles, with an estimated 2bn seedlings and saplings at risk. Many experts have long feared the future of this cherished, ecologically important native tree hangs in the balance.

  • New research comes as dozens of small potential fields have received some form of license from the government

    Potential new North Sea oil and gas fields with early stage licences from the UK would emit as much carbon dioxide as British households produce in three decades.

    The finding has led to calls to the government to reject demands from fossil fuel producers for the final permits needed to allow their operations to go ahead.

  • Scientists surprised to find so many animals unknown to science in Alto Mayo, a well-populated region

    Researchers in the Alto Mayo region of north-west Peru have discovered 27 species that are new to science, including a rare amphibious mouse, a tree-climbing salamander and an unusual “blob-headed fish”. The 38-day survey recorded more than 2,000 species of wildlife and plants.

    The findings are particularly surprising given the region’s high human population density, with significant pressures including deforestation and agriculture.

  • Teesdale, North Pennines: In this stretch between farmland and riverbank, the plant life is thick, and harbouring legions of insects and larvae

    The poet Molly Holden celebrated edgelands like this footpath, where the passage of the plough never quite reaches. “The pieces of unprofitable land,” she wrote, “are what I like best.” The narrow path, between steep riverbank and farmland, links uncultivated triangular corners of the field, each headland bordered by the sweeping arc of waterlogged tractor ruts and hedges. They’re refuges for mugwort, docks, goosegrass and brome grass, now withered, weatherbeaten and run to seed, providing food for birds and replenishing the soil seed bank for the future. These are Holden’s “memories of former wilds”, the frontline in the annual tussle between arable and nature.

    In winter the frontier, tilled and seeded, moves close to the edge of the path; any closer and the tractor might topple down a gully. Within weeks a counteroffensive begins, as red dead-nettle and speedwell seedlings appear among regimented rows of sprouted wheat. Come spring, the wild bridgehead advances further into arable territory. By next summer this path will be bordered with wild flowers, concealing runs of field mice that pilfer ripening grain.

  • Critically endangered grasslands in Tasmania’s Midlands were being destroyed by agriculture, but an innovative partnership has protected the remaining ecosystem – and local farmers’ profits

    When Tasmania’s lowland native grasslands were first recommended for national listing as a critically endangered ecosystem in 2007, mistrust between farmers and conservationists was high.

    “We walked out of a stakeholder meeting in the Ross pub,” says Simon Foster, whose family have been farming on the Midlands since 1823.

  • Researchers in North Carolina used underwater sonar to map a system created by enslaved people centuries ago

    As a former deputy state underwater archaeologist, Mark Wilde-Ramsing can’t help but look down. While rowing around North Carolina’s Eagles Island, at the tip of the Gullah Geechee corridor, he noticed signs of human-made structures, visible at low tide. Though he’d retired, he was still active in the field and knew his former agency hadn’t recorded the structures – which meant he had come across something previously undocumented. The next step was figuring out exactly what he’d found.

    Wilde-Ramsing knew the area had once been full of rice fields. His neighbor, Joni “Osku” Backstrom, was an assistant professor in the department of environmental sciences at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington whose specialty was shallow-water sonar, and he had the skills and technology to explore the area. Using a sonar device, the duo detected 45 wooden structures in the river, and the remote sensing tool allowed Backstrom and Wilde-Ramsing to acoustically map the canal beds.

  • Wreckage from Spain’s worst natural disaster this century may have been cleared but life for many remains in disarray

    The warm Valencia air, still thick with dust and carrying a residual note of mud and damp concrete, begins to reek on the approach to the roadside dump where diggers toil, gulls scavenge and the detritus of countless everyday lives rises in mounds.

    Almost two months on, the legacy of the worst natural disaster to hit Spain this century is equally evident in the oranges rotting on the trees, in the tens of thousands of cars stacked in makeshift graveyards, and in the fatigue of all those who still queue daily for food, nappies and toilet roll.

  • Here are the simplest ways to have a sustainable summer holiday

    With Australia’s love of an annual beach holiday comes a revolving door of new “must have” gear: sunshades, blow-up toys, fold-out chairs and endless gadgets to keep us entertained.

    But how much of it do we really need, and what are the simplest ways to reduce your environmental footprint in the sand?

  • Doba u kojem živimo obilježeno je sve bržim promjenama koje se name?‡u morskom okolišu, a gotovo za sve odgovorni su ljudi. Obalna zona Sredozemlja, pa tako i našeg Jadranskoga mora,  mjesto je na kojemu obitava više od polovice ukupnog stanovništva Mediterana te zbog toga ovo usko područje predstavlja i jedan od najugroženijih morskih okoliša.
