Half of the Great Barrier Reef has been bleached to death since 2016

Half of the Great Barrier Reef has been bleached to death since 2016. Mass coral bleaching, a global problem triggered by climate change, occurs when unnaturally hot ocean water destroys a reef’s colorful algae, leaving the coral to starve. The Great Barrier Reef illustrates how extensive the damage can be: Thirty percent of the coral perished in 2016, another 20 percent in 2017. The effect is akin to a forest after a devastating fire. Much of the marine ecosystem along the reef’s north coast has become barren and skeletal with little hope of recovery.

Ricky Maynard - photographer

“I saw every picture. I looked into the faces of all those Aboriginal people and it was sad. I started questioning the photographer's role. It changed my life and the way I viewed pictures.”

Ricky Maynard

Ricky Maynard is an Indigenous photographer with a commitment to representing his people, and a belief in the value of documentary photography as a tool to effect social change. An important aspect of Maynard's work is to bring to light the stories of Indigenous people where they have previously been absent or distorted. His photographs mark historical sites, events and community figures of great significance to Tasmanian and mainland Aboriginal people, and speak to their struggle in a subtle, poetic, and powerful way.

Maynard was born in Tasmania, where he lives and works. He came to prominence in 1988 with a photo essay on Aboriginal Mutton bird farmers entitled The Moon-Bird People, which was commissioned for the photographic book After 200 Years: Photographic Essays of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in Australia Today (1988).

Das andere Ende der Welt

1/2: Den Kiwis auf der Spur Film von Peter Kunz

Neuseeland – die Heimat der "Kiwis", wie die Neuseeländer sich selbst nennen, und die Heimat der Träume am anderen Ende der bewohnten Welt. Schon immer zogen die Inseln im Pazifischen Ozean alle Arten von Siedlern, Suchern und Auswanderern an. Neuseeland bietet noch den Raum zur Selbstverwirklichung. Nur wenig mehr als vier Millionen Menschen bevölkern eine der grandiosesten Landschaften dieser Erde ... http://www.phoenix.de/content/224227

Uluru

Uluru is predominantly composed of coarse-grained arkose (a type of sandstone with an abundance of feldspar) and some conglomerate. Iron-bearing minerals weathered by oxidation give the rock its red-brown rusty colour, though fresh rock surfaces are grey. It covers 3.3 square kilometres and is 9.4 kilometres around its base. It reaches 345 metres above the plains.

Over 600 million years ago large amounts of Central Australia were below sea level within the Amadeus Basin. Rivers brought large quantities of sedimentary material into the Amadeus Basin. 500 million years ago the Basin started to rise out of the sea, and the sediment from the rivers began to form alluvial fans. The sediment from which Uluru formed came from a section one of these alluvial fans. Over time the sea re-entered the Basin and more sedimentary material was deposited then lithified.

Between 300 and 400 million years ago there was a prolonged period of mountain building; the future Uluru was tilted at almost 90° to create the present vertical orientation of the strata. There were millions more years of weathering but Uluru, Kata Tjuta (the Olgas, 35 km to the west) and Atila (Mount Connor, about 100km east of Uluru) were made of harder rock than that which surrounded them, so were less susceptible to erosion. The landscape was smoothed out by the wetter climate of 60-70 million years ago

Die Perlenschwester von Lucinda Riley

Wie auch ihre Schwestern ist CeCe d'Aplièse ein Adoptivkind, und ihre Herkunft ist ihr unbekannt. Als ihr Vater stirbt, hinterlässt er einen Hinweis - sie soll in Australien die Spur einer gewissen Kitty Mercer ausfindig machen. Ihre Reise führt sie zunächst nach Thailand, wo sie die Bekanntschaft eines geheimnisvollen Mannes macht. Durch ihn fällt CeCe eine Biographie von Kitty Mercer in die Hände - eine Schottin, die vor über hundert Jahren nach Australien kam und den Perlenhandel zu ungeahnter Blüte brachte.

Kangaroo Meat Today

The kangaroo is a symbol of Australia, appearing on the Australian coat of arms and is an important part of the national culture and image.

In the traditional religion of Aboriginal people kangaroos are also The Dreaming of Country and essential to the re-engersing of Song Lines and Dreaming Tracks, they are Sacred Totem Animals to many Indigenous people. By spritual dreaming Aboriginal people, for whom spirituality plays an important role in life, are able to return to the spiritual energy of the Dreamtime or Creation Time (Deutschlandfunk). https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/australien-die-ahnengoetter-geben-kraft.886.de.html?dram:article_id=409555
