The meaning of the word "cave dweller" is therefore, troglobite is a general name for a group of tiny ground-dwelling creatures, as someone who spent his whole life in the dark, the troglobite lost the light of his eyes and developed sensitive senses: smell, taste as well as sensitivity to vibrations/movements in the ground. There are: millipedes, spiders, crickets, worms, crabs and fish. Each and every one of the heteroglobit species has unique and special breeding "corners", their importance to the environment: in the recycling of waste and tiny food particles and their return to the cycle, because of their uniqueness the creatures are sensitive to human activities such as: agriculture and mining, activities that expose the dark habitat to light, exposure to sunlight and radiation kills the tiny creatures .

In the Robe River region of Western Australia, preparations have been made for iron mining, the mining company Rio Tinto is one of the largest in the world, the company has another mine in the area that should be closed in 2010, after receiving the necessary approvals, the company began preparations to open a mine that was supposed to produce approximately 220 million ore of about a billion dollars in the next ten years.

As part of a test bed, 11 species of troglobite were discovered in the excavated material, of which several creatures are new to science, the discovery led the Western Australia's Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) to demand an immediate stop to mining and the cancellation of the permission given to the company, claiming that continued mining would harm the tiny creatures found "Only here". Further damage is expected to the remains of indigenous culture in the area, and there is also a danger of damage to the stability of the soil in the area.

It turns out that the Environmental Authority in Australia has the means and the power to stop and prevent activity that harms the environment, now the issue will be discussed with the Minister of the Environment who is the final arbiter, a ruling that will take into account first of all the welfare of the environment and its inhabitants, that's right!

With us: a megalomaniacal development project with the pretentious name "Valley of Peace" is unfolding, who will do it, who will succeed in neutralizing the birth of the monster before it is too late.

  1. For my people, the conservation of nature will not last much longer, as the years pass by, our power is getting stronger and so is our ability in other areas. We are becoming a civilization and nature is standing in our way. Will nature inhibit our ability to exist even after the end of the battle of Kadaha? In order to exist, someone has to be sacrificed. Maybe for Kadaha this is nature, but don't forget that there are many more stars on some of them there is water and maybe nature too, so until we reach them it will be a long time I'm sure it pays off one day and we'll have to say goodbye to DHA and the entire nature because of the warming, so it doesn't matter that much if we save it or not.

  2. Emek HaShalom is not related to the Yam to Yam Canal, these are related to a development project in the Yokneam coves near Haifa which is supposed to be built on a valley that is now a green and beautiful wild area and the only one in the region

  3. Interesting and exciting article.

    My heart was especially touched by the section where the heteroglobit lost his eyesight.
    I almost cried.

  4. On December 24, 2006, under the title "The end of an act with the first thought" I mentioned some of the environmental dangers of the "Canal of the Seas", to what is written it should be added the fact that the canal is planned on an active fault line (where there are three directions of movement), continuous and strong earthquakes are known throughout history ,
    Also, in the list is a proposal / solution for the problems that you are perverting
    The canal plan to solve,

  5. Populism!
    Nature conservation is a sensitive and important matter. Damages from companies that try to extract money from natural minerals while abusing the environment must also be minimized. I don't think that's the case here. 11 spiders were found, some of them new to science. insect. How many new insects are found in twenty square meters of tropical forest? On average 20 months for science. Probably more. It's insects. I'm not talking about the other animals. That is why it is populism.

    Regarding the peace project - I'm not sure what it is. But there is some big project that is supposed to transfer water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea and fill it again just before it dries up.

    It's really interesting what monstrous ecological aspects the writer mentions.

  6. Perhaps we can expand on the planned peace project and why it is so problematic for the environment?
    Thanks
