  • Rapport D'activite |2014
    RAPPORT D’ACTIVITE | 2014 1. Introduction et chiffres clés d’Ecofolio en 2014 Le 8e exercice social d’Ecofolio atteste d’un changement de modèle. Le déchet est devenu une ressource pour tous. La mission de l’éco-organisme est bien de récolter ces mines urbaines que constituent les contenants de collecte sélective pour faire des vieux papiers la matière première compétitive des industries de demain. La dynamique n’est plus la même : auparavant le déchet coûtait, polluait et ne trouvait pas de débouchés. Nos vieux papiers sont désormais des ressources alternatives au bois qui se raréfie, et des vecteurs de croissance et d’emplois pour demain. L’économie circulaire est la seule réponse à la raréfaction des ressources et à la nécessaire sobriété carbone de nos économies. Elle est une promesse de croissance nouvelle et pérenne qui réconcilie l’amélioration écologique et la création de valeur. Ecofolio doit agir avec toutes les parties prenantes pour amorcer ce cercle vertueux de la croissance verte et transformer l’éco-contribution acquittée par les metteurs sur le marché en investissement pour des usines, des emplois et de la qualité écologique. L’année 2014 a permis à Ecofolio de déployer pleinement les actions prévues à son 2e agrément : davantage de soutiens pour soutenir majoritairement le recyclage, mais aussi de nouveaux financements pour accompagner la rationalisation de la collecte et du tri des vieux papiers (dispositif d’accompagnement au changement), des actions renforcées en matière de communication/information et sensibilisation toujours conduites comme des campagnes de cause et non de marque. Et toujours des actions majeures en termes de R&D et d’études pour améliorer la recyclabilité des produits en papier et les performances de la collecte et du tri.

    Leading � rec�very Annual Report 2019–2020 TARONGA ANNUAL REPORT 2019–2020 A SHARED FUTURE � WILDLIFE AND PE�PLE At Taronga we believe that together we can find a better and more sustainable way for wildlife and people to share this planet. Taronga recognises that the planet’s biodiversity and ecosystems are the life support systems for our own species' health and prosperity. At no time in history has this been more evident, with drought, bushfires, climate change, global pandemics, habitat destruction, ocean acidification and many other crises threatening natural systems and our own future. Whilst we cannot tackle these challenges alone, Taronga is acting now and working to save species, sustain robust ecosystems, provide experiences and create learning opportunities so that we act together. We believe that all of us have a responsibility to protect the world’s precious wildlife, not just for us in our lifetimes, but for generations into the future. Our Zoos create experiences that delight and inspire lasting connections between people and wildlife. We aim to create conservation advocates that value wildlife, speak up for nature and take action to help create a future where both people and wildlife thrive. Our conservation breeding programs for threatened and priority wildlife help a myriad of species, with our program for 11 Legacy Species representing an increased commitment to six Australian and five Sumatran species at risk of extinction. The Koala was added as an 11th Legacy Species in 2019, to reflect increasing threats to its survival. In the last 12 months alone, Taronga partnered with 28 organisations working on the front line of conservation across 17 countries.

  • Dexter the Courageous Koala Is Suitable for Readers from Year 5 Up, Although Mature, Capable Readers in Years 3 and 4 Will Also Find Much to Enjoy
    Dexter The Courageous Koala By Jesse Blackadder Book Summary: Ashley can’t wait to bring home the puppy she’s been promised —but then Dad loses his job, and her parents can’t afford an extra mouth to feed. Heart-broken, Ashley reluctantly goes off to spend the school holidays with an aunt she barely knows—eccentric Micky, who lives in an isolated spot on the north coast of NSW and who cares for injured koalas. Within hours of arriving, the road into Micky’s house is cut off by rising flood waters, then a wild storm brings a blackout and some serious damage to Micky’s house and garden. Worse still, trees from a nearby koala colony have come down in the storm, and Ashley must risk life and limb to save an injured koala and her joey. Curriculum Areas and Key Learning Outcomes: Dexter the Courageous Koala is suitable for readers from Year 5 up, although mature, capable readers in Years 3 and 4 will also find much to enjoy.

  • Health and Disease Status in a Threatened Marsupial, the Quokka (Setonix Brachyurus)
    Health and disease status in a threatened marsupial, the quokka (Setonix brachyurus) Pedro Martínez-Pérez Veterinarian (Hons), MVS Conservation Medicine This thesis was submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Wildlife Veterinary Studies, Murdoch University School of Veterinary and Life Sciences Murdoch University Murdoch, Western Australia January 2016 Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content, work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary educational institution. _______________________________________________ Pedro A. Martínez-Pérez I Abstract Between 1901 and 1931, there were at least six anecdotal records of disease outbreaks in mainland quokkas (Setonix brachyurus) that were associated with mass. This time period pre-dates the arrival of the red fox (Vulpes vulpes). Despite these outbreaks, little or no research has been carried out to establish health and disease baseline data of the fragmented and scattered, extant populations. Epidemiological data was determined for a range of potential pathogens, and established physiological reference intervals of apparently healthy, wild quokkas on Rottnest Island and mainland locations. There were significant differences between Rottnest Island and mainland quokkas. Rottnest Island animals had haemograms with mark evidence of oxidative injury and bone marrow response consistent with a regenerative normocytic hypochromic anaemia. Except alkaline phosphatase (ALP), all blood chemistry analytes where higher in mainland animals, with particular emphasis on creatine kinase (CK), alanine amino transferase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and vitamin E. Some other key findings include a widespread presence of a novel herpesvirus (MaHV-6), the recovery of Cryptococcus neoformans var.
