Burning #SeaShells to make #quicklime

Posted on November 10, 2018 by Per Storemyr

"Burning seashells to make quicklime once was a great tradition in the #NorthAtlantic region. In Millstone Park, Hyllestad (W-Norway), we have built two #limekilns, reviving old lime burning traditions, involving #craftspeople, volunteers and the public. Recently we burnt sea shells to make #LimePaint and #mortar! Read about the experiment in a new poster and web article."

Sicilianews24.it: Protezioni per le balene in pericolo potrebbero slittare al 2035 secondo il piano di Trump.

La Minaccia ai Balene Giuste del Nord Atlantico
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Circa 380 balene giuste del Nord Atlantico stanno affrontando una crisi esistenziale, con il rischio di morire a causa di incidenti con reti da pesca o collisioni con le navi. Recentemente, l’amministrazione Trump ha annunciato la sua intenzione di ritardare l’implementazione di nuove misure di protezione per quasi un decennio, favorendo così gli interessi della pesca commerciale.
Queste balene, che possono pesare quanto un bulldozer di medie dimensioni, sono classificate come specie in critico pericolo di estinzione. Negli ultimi decenni, il numero di esemplari è diminuito drammaticamente. Le organizzazioni ambientaliste sottolineano l’importanza di ridurre il numero di decessi e infortuni causati dall’uomo, fattori cruciali per la ripresa della specie.

The Threat to North Atlantic Right Whales
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Approximately 380 North Atlantic right whales are facing an existential crisis, with the risk of dying due to ship strikes or entanglement in fishing gear. Recently, the Trump administration has announced its intention to delay the implementation of new protective measures by nearly a decade, thereby favoring the interests of the commercial fishing industry.
These whales, which can weigh as much as a medium-sized bulldozer, are classified as a critically endangered species. In recent decades, the number of individuals has decreased dramatically. Environmental organizations emphasize the importance of reducing the number of deaths and injuries caused by humans, crucial factors for the species’ recovery.

The article “Protections for Endangered Whales Could Slip to 2035 Under Trump’s Plan” appears to be first on Sicilianews24.it.
