Oil be gone

Phillip Island cleans up with magnetic wand

Oil spills are catastrophic environmental disasters, and the impact on wildlife caught in the slicks is devastating.

Traditionally oiled wildlife have been treated with detergent-based methods, which are very labour intensive, and require cumbersome and expensive equipment and facilities. Furthermore, the process damages birds’ feathers and causes great stress – meaning further expensive facilities are required for recuperation.

But now Phillip Island Nature Parks – home of the famous little penguins in Victoria – has completed a breakthrough research project into cleaning oily wildlife, in conjunction with Victoria and Monash Universities...

...An initial rapid five-minute treatment can remove around 60-80% of the oil from an animal, which could mean the difference between life and death. Subsequent treatments can remove the oil completely.

Unlike detergent, this treatment doesn’t damage fur or feathers, so animals treated with the wand won’t need follow-up care in captivity....

More good news today!

Good news!
"The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title."

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women
