  • Unique Geological Values of Mt. Teide As the Basis of Its Inclusion on The
    Seminario_10_2013_d 10/6/13 17:11 Página 36 Unique geological values of Mt. Teide as the basis of its inclusion on the World Heritage List / Juan Carlos Carracedo Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Abstract UNESCO created in 1972 the World Heritage List to “preserve the world’s superb natural and sce- nic areas and historic sites for the present and future generations of citizens of the entire world”. Nominated sites must be of ‘outstanding universal value’ and meet stringent selection criteria. Teide National Park (TNP) and the already nominated (1987) Hawaiian Volcanoes National Park (HVNP) correspond to the Ocean Island Basalts (OIB). The main geological elements of TNP inclu- de Las Cañadas Caldera, one of the most spectacular, best exposed and accessible volcanic cal- deras on Earth, two active rifts, and two large felsic stratovolcanoes, Teide and Pico Viejo, rising 3718 m above sea level and around 7500 m above the ocean floor, together forming the third hig- hest volcanic structure in the world after the Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea volcanoes on the island of Hawaii. A different geodynamic setting, causing lower fusion and subsidence rates in Tenerife, lead to longer island life and favoured evolution of magmas and the production of large volumes of differentiated volcanics in Tenerife, scant or absent in Hawaii. This fundamental difference provi- ded a main argument for the inscription of TNP in the World Heritage List because both National Parks complement each other to represent the entire range of products, features and landscapes of oceanic islands. Teide National Park was inscribed in the World Heritage List in 2007 for its natu- ral beauty and its “global importance in providing diverse evidence of the geological processes that underpin the evolution of oceanic islands, these values complementing those of existing volcanic properties on the World Heritage List, such as the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park”.

Evidence for the existence of though the cold damp draught indicated that the cave Martian caves such as long lava channels and lines of was probably a lot deeper. pits have been identified from orbiting space craft [2] and epithermal neutron maps indicate the presence of water a few metres below the surface [3] which would be accessible to cave life. Inside the caves, any life will have access to water and would be sheltered from the harsh surface conditions of UV radiation and low humidity as well as from the prevailing weather condi- tions. The caves in the Teide national park of Tenerife are an ideal terrestrial analogue of Martian caves. They are situated at an altitude of 2500 m in an area of low humidity. Additionally, contamination is reduced as access to the area is limited for conservation reasons.

  • Peace in Palestine Via the World Heritage Convention
    . Michael K. Madison II. Peace in Palestine ..........through World Heritage Promoting Peace via Global Conventions - 1 - Peace in Palestine via the World Heritage Convention Promoting Peace via Global Conventions The Global Problem "Throughout history, religious differences have divided men and women from their neighbors and have served as justification for some of humankind's bloodiest conflicts. In the modern world, it has become clear that people of all religions must bridge these differences and work together, to ensure our survival and realize the vision of peace that all faiths share." -- H.R.H. Prince El-Hassan bin Talal, Jordan Moderator, WCRP Governing Board Tolerance, Economic Growth and Fear Global peace and harmony is not possible without religious tolerance. Unfortunately, there is no instant microwavable solution. We can’t just add water and/or milk to the current situation and hope that the world will ameliorate itself overnight. No. The world needs help. The problem is not the outliers; it is larger groups of people that need to change. Outliers will always be present. The world needs religious-minded policymakers to take giant steps that lead to peace, but in a mutually beneficial way. Indeed, peace for peace’s sake is not always enough incentive to all parties involved. Therefore, if the conflict cannot be resolved by tolerance, then let it be resolved by greed as we find a way to help the countries involved to achieve a better economic position. If the conflict cannot be resolved by boosting the corresponding economies, then let it be resolved by fear as we convince the nations involved that one false move means it will be - 2 - their country against the rest of the world and not just their “enemy of the day”.
