The dugong is a large marine mammal that inhabits coastal areas from East Africa to Australia. It has a rotund body, paddle-like flippers, and fluke-like tail. Dugongs are threatened by habitat loss due to residential development, shipping lanes, fishing, and mining. They are also vulnerable to getting trapped in fishing nets. Conservation efforts focus on protecting coastal habitats, enforcing fishing regulations, and increasing public awareness about dugong threats. However, conservation is challenging due to difficulties enforcing laws and stopping accidental net captures.

Earth charter final presentation
As a youth who is very passionate about making a difference wherever I found myself, I volunteered for the earth charter and was ask to do a presentation to youth organisation about Earth Charter and their principles. This was an awesome experience and would like to share with everyone.
The National Symbols of Belize
The national symbols of Belize include the mahogany tree, black orchid flower, toucan bird, and tapir animal. The red, white, and blue flag represents national unity under the motto "Under the Shade I Flourish". The toucan is a colorful bird that eats fruits, while the mahogany tree can grow over 100 feet tall. The tapir is Belize's largest land mammal, resembling a donkey, and the black orchid flowers nearly year-round on trees in damp areas.
Dugong_Profile
This document provides information about dugongs and efforts to protect them in the Pacific region. It discusses dugongs' cultural and ecological importance. It announces that 2011 was declared the Pacific Year of the Dugong to raise awareness and foster conservation partnerships. Events were held in several countries to launch national campaigns. The goals were to promote awareness, reduce dugong mortality, improve population data, and advance long-term support. The document provides brief profiles of dugong populations and conservation measures in 6 Pacific countries.
Dugong
The dugong is a large marine mammal that inhabits coastal areas from East Africa to Australia. It has a rotund body, paddle-like flippers, and a fluke-like tail. Dugongs are threatened by human activities like coastal development, boat traffic, fishing nets, and pollution. They have a slow reproduction rate and cannot hold their breath for more than 12 minutes. Conservation efforts aim to protect dugong habitats, enforce fishing regulations, and raise awareness of threats to the species. However, it is difficult to fully protect dugongs due to ineffective enforcement and the challenges of restricting fishing nets.
Isabelle's Dugong Powerpoint
Dugongs eat about 1 pound of sea grass for every 10 pounds they weigh. When eating sea grass, dugongs must clean it using their nose and flippers by shaking it wildly. Baby dugongs nurse by drinking their mother's milk while the mother swims just below the surface and sometimes grazes at the same time. Dugongs have two tiny nostrils on top of their snout to breathe while much of their body is submerged as they swim or sleep. Over a million years ago, dugongs had front and back legs but have since evolved to live exclusively in the water.
Inquiry Project 1
The author went on a jet ski trip in Florida where they encountered dolphins on two occasions. Some relatives jumped in the water to swim with the dolphins. The document discusses laws around feeding dolphins, interactions between dolphins and humans, different dolphin species, how dolphins sleep, threats to dolphins, and guidelines for safely viewing dolphins in the wild.
Dolphins
Dolphins are marine mammals that evolved from land animals and are related to whales. There are 30-40 dolphin species that vary in size and weight and are found worldwide. Some key dolphin types include the bottlenose dolphin, striped dolphin, killer whale, and hourglass dolphin. Dolphins are highly intelligent and social, usually living in groups. However, they face threats from humans hunting them for food and from larger predators like sharks and killer whales. Conservation groups are working to protect dolphins and ban killing them.
Irrawadi dolphines
Irrawaddy dolphins live in coastal and fresh waters in parts of South and Southeast Asia. They are classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN due to accidental entanglement in fishing nets being their main threat. Dr. Madhusudan Subudhi studied Irrawaddy dolphins in Chilika Lake, India, where 5 of 10 dead dolphins examined showed injuries from gill nets. Conservation efforts in Chilika include mapping dolphin movements, imposing fines for gill netting and chasing dolphins, and promoting dolphin-safe fishing practices and alternative livelihoods for fishermen.

Ecotourism (Introduction)
Ecotourism involves traveling to relatively undisturbed natural areas to study and enjoy nature and culture while promoting conservation. If not planned properly, tourism can damage environments through overuse. Ecotourism should enhance conservation, education, and socioeconomic benefits for local communities while having low environmental impact. Popular ecotourism activities in the Philippines include mountaineering, birdwatching, scuba diving, and whale watching, which support conservation if practiced sustainably.
Globalization Fish Quotas
Overfishing is causing major environmental, economic, and political problems globally. Environmentally, overfishing damages ocean ecosystems and fish stocks. Economically, there are too many fishing vessels chasing too few fish, overcapitalizing the industry. Politically, countries struggle to agree on and enforce fishing quotas to regulate catch amounts. Potential solutions include implementing rights-based fisheries management, promoting sustainable practices, and increasing international cooperation through agreements.
Pigmy short horned lizard
The pygmy short-horned lizard is a small carnivorous reptile found in parts of western North America including southern British Columbia, where it has been extirpated. It lives in desert, grassland, and dry forest habitats, preying mainly on ants and other insects. Major threats include habitat loss from urban development and vehicles, as well as predation from introduced species. The lizard is protected under federal species at risk legislation.
Marine Mammals
Marine mammals are warm-blooded and air-breathing, with hair or fur and mammary glands to feed live young. They are divided into three main categories: Carnivora like seals, sea lions, and walruses; Sirenia like manatees and dugongs; and Cetacea including whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Cetacea are further divided into toothed whales like dolphins and sperm whales, and baleen whales which filter feed using baleen plates. Marine mammals have various adaptations for living in the ocean like blubber for insulation and streamlined bodies for fast swimming.

DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.
