Devastation caused by the Los Angeles fire While the provisional death toll from the devastating fire that affected the hills of Los Angeles has risen to eleven, there is also misinformation about for example the palm trees that inexplicably would not have been burned, but some say that in some cases they are well-kept plants and therefore less attackable by fire because they are very humid and the partially dry ones are burned almost like dry straw. Should plant species of palm trees that do not become hotbeds that trigger real fire fronts, then adapt the water system to the needs of the firefighters; in fact, it seems that the great demand for water has quickly exhausted the reserves making unusable the hydrants, more than twelve thousand buildings burned and entire communities practically razed to the ground, seriously damaged the structures of the well-known Californian media in the city. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 11, 2025

 New fire front in Los Angeles A new impressive fire front is affecting the hills of Los Angeles in California in addition to the other uncontrollable ones that had already burned many homes, there are five victims and one hundred thousand evacuation orders as well as wounded even in serious condition; then some speak of a kind of hurricane of fire that passes from one house to another, fifteen hundred structures damaged or destroyed, many cars burned, entire forests practically gone up in smoke. Authorities announce a state of disaster for what is the second largest city in the United States. As usual there are complaints of extreme conditions caused by climate change, with six months of no rainfall that has dried out a lot of vegetation that had grown rapidly for previous periods interspersed with frequent intense rains and then the fire fuelled recent gusts of wind. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 09, 2025 n°: 5843 Earthquake in remote area of Tibet There would be over one hundred and twenty victims of an earthquake quantifiable of magnitude between 6.8 and 7.1 that shook a remote area of Tibet in Chinese territory at over four thousand meters above sea level in the Everest area on the border with Nepal followed by a strong replication and seismic swarm, there is talk of collapsed houses and damage from an earthquake that seems to have been clearly felt in the capital of Nepal Kathmandu and as far as India. To report changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues four victims in the mid-west of the United States due to a blizzard, declared a state of emergency in seven states, three hundred thousand people without electricity supply, impassable roads and canceled flights; then inconveniences and cars trapped between ice and snow due to the great Arctic cold that partly affected the east coast and in particular Washington. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 07, 2025 n°: 5841 Small amphibians essential for ecosystems Many ecosystems in the world remain vital due to the presence of small amphibians that are often threatened by climate change, for example a devastating pandemic of a fungus (cytridiomycosis) has caused the disappearance of frogs essential to ensure the biodiversity of fragile uncontaminated environments. The researchers argue that frogs that have managed to survive could represent the key to the survival of other species, then making a kind of comparison with Covid-19 for humans it is as if the SARS-CoV-2 virus had a mortality rate of ninety-nine percent. There are solutions to be adopted to safeguard frogs such as small saunas heated by the sun where amphibians can warm up and heal from infection and at the same time become resistant to future attacks of the fungus. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 02, 2025 n°: 5838 Wave of bad weather in Italy Wind gusts uprooted a tree near Rome that overwhelmed two women, one died the other is in serious condition, with controversy about the maintenance of the plants of the park where the tree that had its roots partly cut fell; then there is talk of a fishing boat struggling with high storms it sank with the two fishermen on the Roman coast. In the Marche region the wave of bad weather has caused snowfall even at low altitude with inconvenience, while there is talk of an alert for several regions in the peninsula. Of note changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that in the French archipelago of the Mayotte lashed recently by the cyclone "Chido" are missing essential good places, then forty percent of the hospital rooms of the capital Mamoudzou is unusable, so it is not known where to hospitalize many people who go for treatment, thirty-five victims of the strong vortex as well as many injured and significant damage. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 24, 2024 n°: 5833 Winter Olympic Games increasingly precarious By 2050 only half of the twenty-one cities that previously hosted the Winter Olympic Games will have conditions to allow these sporting events due to climate change, at least according to forecasts; then as the average temperatures rise globally, the games will have to adapt to a rather precarious situation characterized by cancellations of competitions, concerns about the safety of events and an increase in the demand for plants that allow artificial snowmaking. These difficulties have already been widely presented with complaints from athletes, for example with regard to the safety of ski descents with accidents and even victims. To report by changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues a landslide in British Columbia in Canada that occurred recently at the village of Lions Bay, two victims in addition to mud and debris a stretch of highway. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 23, 2024 n°: 5832 Strong earthquake in the Vanuatu Islands A strong earthquake of magnitude 7.3 shook the islands of the Pacific Vanuato causing several victims, collapsing buildings, bridges, covering of rubble and debris the roads affected by the earthquake followed by a replica of magnitude 5.5 and then aftershocks and prolonged seismic swarm; then there is talk of significant damage in the capital Port Vila including the nearby areas. A bus has been overwhelmed by a landslide and most likely there will be victims, the cellular telephone network is out of service and we try to organize the rescue and bring help with international support. To report by changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that the cyclone "Chido" that after lashing the Mayotte archipelago has caused significant damage also in Mozambique, it is a very poor area and the fragile houses have sometimes collapsed or are seriously damaged, then lacks food and water. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 18, 2024 n°: 5828 A cyclone lashes the Mayotte in the Indian Ocean The authorities of the French territory of the Mayotte in the Indian Ocean east of Africa (five hundred kilometers west of Mozambique) fear that there are hundreds of victims due to the cyclone "Chido"; two for now the confirmed victims, but many buildings are very damaged or destroyed so the hypotheses speak of a very heavy death toll, perhaps even thousands, there is talk of uprooted trees, lack of electricity and water. The three hundred and twenty thousand residents of the poor territory had been warned to close themselves in the house to avoid the gusts of wind at over two hundred and twenty kilometers per hour. To report changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues an ecological disaster in the Strait of Kerch near the Black Sea where an oil tanker sank for a storm and another is damaged, the authorities investigates the incident and tries to face the situation. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 16, 2024 n°: 5826 Series of natural disasters in areas east of Java The Indonesian authorities are reportedly planning the measures to be taken to deal with a series of natural disasters (floods, landslides, high waves on the coasts and even a weak earthquake) that have affected areas in East Java in the last two weeks, there is talk of hundreds of people evacuated, four victims, dozens of schools damaged or even collapsed in eleven districts in the regency of Cianjur; the Cibeber district was particularly affected with significant damage. Also for Indonesia it should be noted that a study carried out in California would have highlighted the importance of mangroves in protecting the coasts from the increasingly marked erosion caused by rising sea levels and storms; in fact, a large amount of money saved by planting mangroves has been calculated with economic and environmental benefits even greater than those obtained with man-made defenses. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 13, 2024 n°: 5824 Fire with evacuations in Malibu, California Thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes in Malibu, California due to a fire that is difficult to control by firefighters that has already burned several houses and is advancing rapidly, affected by the fires even sumptuous villas that dot the well-known United States resort. There is talk of warnings given house to house to urgently hurry to evacuate because the fire front is imposing fed by rather dry vegetation due to climate change, then in over a thousand hectares the fire would be out of control also due to the not very uniform hilly conformation of the territory. There has been little attention to fire prevention for decades so much so that flammable material would have accumulated, so fires tend to advance faster with high flames, temperatures are higher and they are more destructive. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 11, 2024 n°: 5822 Ambience and Nature * The author doesn't assume some kind of responsibility for the bad use of the articles councils (all rights are reserved) |
