The great hope for 2008 is that tourism, like other global industries, can find a way to be both green and profitable. At present, niche operators such as hotelier Campbell Gray (One Aldwych and Carlisle Bay, among others) can safely target the sliver of wealthy travellers who really do prefer a single perfect apple in an earthenware bowl to a huge basket of waxy fruit wrapped in cellophane. Still, a decisive shift is taking place and any hotel-owner who thinks that going green means putting a little card in the bathroom asking you whether you want your towels washed has spectacularly missed the point.The World Tourism Organisation (WTO) says that tourism accounts for 10 per cent of global GDP. International tourism will triple in next 20 years and international arrivals are expected to ri

Everyone purchasing property wants to make sure they are investing in the right property, in the right location. So it comes as no surprise that the Alghero Estates team are asked on a regular basis where is the best place to buy?
Unfortunately there is no easy answer to this question. Each client is different and it depends on the type of property your looking for, your budget and the reason for the purchase (life style, investment, relocation). To help answer this question we have comprised the Alghero Estates property guide highlighting the top 5 real estate hotspots.
Lido Beach
First up is Zona Lido. This is the area opposite the main beach area this is a first choice for the holiday home investor who wants sea views, walking distance to the beach and summertime rental returns. As such the majority of the property in this area is a purpose built holiday apartments.

I’m sitting in the Ontario airport, having logged into a WiFi hotspot moments ago. When I opened up my wireless connection control panel, I saw a list of 19 networks to join, most listing their rock bottom prices in the SSID (the name of the network). Competition is tough at the Ontario airport!
Ok now I’m in the Denver airport on a 5 hour layover - this place is becoming my satellite office. For those of you thinking about getting into the WiFi hotspot market, I suggest you try this airport. It has 50 times the traffic of Ontario and quarter of the number of hotspots. All of which are a pain in the ass to connect to.
Gotta go - someone is trying to bogart my power.
El término “punto caliente de biodiversidad” (hotspot en inglés) identifica regiones biogeográficas terrestres importantes según el número de endemismos y el grado de amenaza sobre la biodiversidad, es decir, las zonas de emergencia biológica del planeta. Lo dice también el modo en que también se denominan estas áreas: KBA , o ‘Key Biodiversity Areas’, que significaría “puntos clave”, no sólo por la supervivencia de la variedad biológica, sino por el destino mismo del hombre.
Fue el Dr. Norman Myers quien en 1998 puso a punto una estrategia para la tutela de la biodiversidad, basada en el concepto de los ‘biodiversity hotspots’ o puntos neurálgicos sobre los que se debe concentrar el máximo esfuerzo de conservación ecológica.

Scientists have recently discovered that drifting icebergs allow the surrounding water to absorb more carbon dioxide.
BBC writes
US scientists found that minerals released from the melting ice triggered blooms of CO2-absorbing phytoplankton.
These microscopic plants were then eaten by krill (shrimp-like organisms), whose waste material containing the carbon sank to the ocean floor.
It continues:
Using instruments that included a trawl net and a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) with a video camera, the researchers sampled waters from the ice blocks up to 9km away (5.5 miles).
They found a “substantial enrichment” of minerals, phytoplankton, krill and seabirds in the surrounding water up to 3.7km away (2.3 miles) compared with areas with no icebergs.
This is a very interesting find. I wonder what it means for scientists studying global warming and climate change.
