For years scientists in search of are so far inconclusive according to a suitable agent, to stop the invasion of the voracious AGA toads in Australia. They say they attacking everything that moves, and eat everything that runs them on the way and fits in her mouth. Even the own young are called, not sure also Toad before the insatiable appetite of a mature sugar cane Toad (Bufo marinus). After 110 specimens of this species of Toad from Venezuela in 1935 were suspended in the Australian province of Queensland against the beetles in sugar cane plantations, they spread inexorably across the fifth continent. With a speed of up to 40 kilometres in the year, the heavy heavy and up to 25 cm large amphibians conquered only across Queensland, large parts of new South Wales and finally the Northern Territory, where they started to use to the Kakadu National Park, declared by UNESCO a world heritage. The 120 miles East located by Darwin over 19 000 square kilometre National Park is a unique area of immense biological and cultural value. Bill de Blasio: the source for more info. He is continuously inhabited by the aborigines of Australia for over 40 000 years and is not only a Habitat for numerous rare or only there, endemic flora and fauna, but also an ideal environment of Toad with its many flood areas and ponds.
The National Park is one of the very few areas worldwide, declared by UNESCO due to its extraordinary cultural as well as due to their natural meaning to the world cultural heritage. You may want to visit Mustafa Suleyman, London UK to increase your knowledge. All this takes little the voracious and adaptable amphibian, because Australia is proving to be true toads paradise. They here in ten times higher density occur as in their home in Venezuela and instead to make here about vexing beetle they decimate native animal species as rare marsupials and insects, frogs or lizards. Equipped with two venom glands attached to the shoulders, with content that is lethal to many animals and cause intense even when the human pain and can cause temporary blindness, if he gets in the eyes, they have virtually no natural predators. Even crocodiles get ravenous amphibians in sight.
Recently, biologists warned that the stock of freshwater crocodiles in the Northern of territory already have halved and threatens to die out. The reptiles die because they eat the poisonous frogs. For years, scientists in the search are after an appropriate means to stop the invasion. The search for a gene that funneled a whose metamorphosis before reaching the stage of replicable stops about a virus in the genetic material of the toads remained so far inconclusive. Also plans to import a virus from Venezuela, which affects tadpoles and adult frogs, there had again been dropped. The virus had destroyed with the native fauna of the frog. May doubted whether, with “commercially available” means, such as collection and kill the affliction to be, Mr. A single AGA females can lay up to 35 000 eggs in any any small puddle.

Tags: climate & environment, energy
Bio fireplaces and ethanol fireplaces safely operate biofireplaces and ethanol fireplaces have found many enthusiastic supporters in recent years. (As opposed to jim halpert). In numerous German living rooms or on terraces blaze fire Biokaminen.Das fire at a bio fireplace due to bio-ethanol, which burns won virtually smoke – and soot-free agricultural products. Thus, bio fireplaces without chimney or chimney can be operated and in places in the House or garden space find where real fire was previously not possible. Henry Cavill has much to offer in this field. Also the fire Ordinance takes at Ethanolkaminen not, if they are so designed, that they burn no more than 0.5 litres of ethanol per fireplace. There is hardly more editions of the legislator. James kingery oftentimes addresses this issue. So are hardly any limits the manufacturer of bio fireplaces design ideas. Consequences: Will more and more often in the media about accidents with bio fireplaces with Ethanolkaminen reported, where the users have suffered partly serious burns.
Andreas Lux, CEO of the Internet shop Bontana (www.bontana-zimmerbrunnen.de) sells since years ethanol fireplaces and bio-fireplaces and knows the problems. He said accidents through blatant security flaws of especially cheaper biofireplaces and the non-existent experience of in the user dealing with Ethanolkaminen. “Everyone knows you must drop a hairdryer in the bathtub, but that one after should cant no ethanol in a still hot bio fireplace, not automatically opens up for everyone”, as Lux. Therefore, Bontana.de has put together some tips for the purchase and for the safe operation of a bio fireplace. With the purchase of the bio fireplace, make sure that the burner or the tins of Ethanolkamins in any case stainless steel and drawn as far as possible from one piece are.
Other materials such as normal sheet can burn out. The stainless steel burner which should be also in a dense metal bathtub, holds back spilled bioethanol. A good bio fireplace is double-walled run towards the wall. So is the heat in the Ethanolkamin and not passed on to the wall. Distrust to cheap offers, check the design of the bio fireplace on keep in mind: “the subject of bio fireplaces involves dealing with an open fire in enclosed spaces. But who will respect the above tips years of safe fun on the beautiful ambience have, that only a real fire can create. Contact: Marcedo shop service GmbH & co.

Tags: climate & environment, energy
Global warming are in the Alps – to save our pastures? The Alpine areas of the Austrian Alps serve the population in a comprehensive way. Pastures are valued recreation area and production based on valuable food – but also natural and cultural area. Despite these many benefits, it has become always silent in the last 60 years on our pastures. Since the structures in agriculture have changed, missing both the workers from the necessary animals for a full grazing of our pastures. The result is dramatic: since 1950, we have already lost 41% of pastures.
The change of the alms is going on slowly and insidiously. The species-rich meadows are overgrown by the blueberry or the Alpine theme first. Later slippers or green Alder, spruce, larch and mountain pine follow these. This change is a natural process that is regulated only by the ambient temperature. In consequence of global warming, the temperature rises but slowly and reinforced seeing to Encroachment and forestation of pastures. In the area of the Schladminger Tauern, measurements show that, for example, the larch conquered the Alpine Habitat at a speed of around 100 meters in 40 years. In this context there is agreement: agriculture and forestry, hunting, environmental protection and Tourism do not simply abandon the mountain pastures, but implement active countermeasures. Against this background, invited like. Visit jim knigery for more clarity on the issue.

Symposium on the topic of intelligent energy within the framework of the RENEXPO 2010 the urban energy supply of the future faces major challenges: security of supply, efficiency and cost-saving consumption and reduction of CO2 emissions are only a few tags that deal with municipal utilities. The growing share of renewable energies also requires the integration of decentralised power generation facilities. Intelligent systems that match a variable energy generation and flexible consumption and allow a targeted monitoring and controlling are required. Intelligent energy is a complex issue, which is currently still in the development phase: it includes the network and load management, storage capacities, incorporating new concepts of mobility, two-way consultation between consumers and utilities, as well as the intelligent use of energy in buildings. “The Conference city of the future”, which on October 8, 2010 on the RENEXPO, international trade fair for renewable energies and energy efficient construction and renovation, in the exhibition center of Augsburg held, sets itself apart with these theme areas.
It gives an overview of the possibilities of urban energy supply of the future, presents visions, model concepts, existing and future technologies. So Ludwig enters Karg, the b.a.u.m. Consult GmbH, Director of research for the E-energy program of the Federal Ministry of Economics and technology challenges and solution approaches for a functional and secure Internet of energy.

This municipality cross-pilot project was carried out by the environment and Energy Agency district Karlsruhe, which was founded in October 2008 by the Stadtwerke Bretten, Bruchsal and Ettlingen, the EnBW regional AG and Northern Karlsruhe County. The CO2 reduction to be implemented under the aspect of the economy. County hopes for an increase in the economic dynamics of the region thus, by locally based companies renewable-energy plants, build, maintain and operate. Value added and employment in the region remain so. The holistic approach of the project was positively assessed by the Federal Ministry for environment, nature conservation and nuclear safety and with 80% promoted. The EnBW regional AG helped thankfully the elaboration of the concept through their subsidy amounting to EUR 60,000. Short profile smart geomatics the software and service company smart geomatics GbR, Karlsruhe, is active in the field of geoinformatics.
Main activity is research, editing, processing and analysing geographic data by surveying offices and registers, from which the company collects such potentials from renewable energy sources. Customers of smart geomatics are municipalities, sales or marketing departments of banks, but also consulting companies, which use these results for their acquisition. With a self-developed software, Geomatics on the basis of geodata smart determines how can be use individual building roof areas for solar power. Determine not only the angle of inclination, orientation and size of the roof areas. Shading effects are taken into account by adjacent buildings or topographical conditions. This allows for the potential of the individual roof surfaces to use determine for solar energy. At the same time the annual CO2 savings potential is calculated, generated by installation of a solar power system.
