environment friend ( foaled 19 march 1988 ) was a british thoroughbred racehorse and sire best known for his win in the 1991 running of the eclipse stakes , one of the united kingdom 's most important weight-for-age races .

after winning the second of his races as a two-year-old he established himself as a top-class colt with a five length win in the dante stakes in may 1991 .

he ran poorly in the epsom derby but then defeated a strong field to win the eclipse as a 28/1 outsider .

environment friend never won again , but remained in training until the age of seven , and was placed in several important races including the coronation cup ( twice ) , the champion stakes and the irish champion stakes .

from 1993 until 1995 his time was divided between standing as a breeding stallion and competing as a racehorse .

environment friend died in 2012 at the age of twenty-four .

he admits to making mistakes , and plenty of them . he didn’t see why environment friend should retire from racing when the horse took up stallion duties : after the eclipse he ran 24 times over four seasons without winning . and for a brief spell in the early 1990s he had his horses trained at stetchworth park stud . his desire to challenge convention became evident .
why is this ? environment seems like a straightforward noun . all the other - friendly constructions i can think of just bolt on to the uninflected noun . . .

this is probably also informed by the fact that your

environmentists
. when you ' re
environmentally aware
, you ' re aware of how your actions affect the environment and are aware of ways to minimize your damages . when you ' re
environment - aware

i offer no evidence to the following , but there may also be a cadence - preference to separate stress in syllables . consider environmentally friendly vs . environment - friendly .

appointed iran ' s first woman vice - president by president khatami in 1997 , massoumeh ebtekar , 47 , later became an inspired environment minister . she made a name for herself in 1979 as the 19 - year - old revolutionary student who became chief interpreter in the 444 - day us embassy siege in tehran . she left government office in 2005 , is now a tehran city councillor and heads the centre for peace and the environment . anything green has taken a back seat since mahmoud ahmadinejad took power , and iran ' s cities are choked with incredible pollution - but because of ebtekar there are now thousands of environment groups led by women seeking change . ' we need to put spiritual and ethical values into the political arena . . . you don ' t see the power of love , you don ' t see the power of the spirit , and as long as that goes on , the environment is going to be degraded and women are going to be in very difficult circumstances ,

the mountain access project is an initiative of comhairle na tuaithe , the national body with responsibility for outdoor recreation , which is resourced through the department of environment , community and local government . the macgillycuddy reeks , along with binn shléibhe in co . galway , is one of two pilot areas where a permissive access model is being piloted , based on awareness of , and respect for , private land . this project is being supported by the department of the environment , community & local government - rural recreation section and the interreg ivb rural alliances programme , through south kerry development partnership .
since karasek introduced the “demand / control” model to characterize the psychosocial work environment ( karasek and theorell , 1990 ) , many empirical studies have tested the predictive validity of the model with respect to the physical health of workers . job strain—the combination of a psychologically demanding workplace and low job control—is hypothesized as leading to adverse health outcomes . studies using both dimensions generally have provided better predictions than studies using either dimension alone . however , job control—the opportunity to use and develop skills and to exert authority over workplace decisions— emerged as the more robust component of a health - promoting work environment .
in the spring of 1991 , peter davies was regarded as a serious contender for the derby stakes and began his season in the dante stakes ( a major trial for the epsom classic ) over ten and a half furlongs at york racecourse . ridden by lester piggott he started favourite and led from the start , but after being overtaken three furlongs from the finish he dropped back quickly and finished seventh of the eight runners behind environment friend . after a break of four month he returned in a minor race over one mile at newbury racecourse in september . he took the lead in the last quarter mile but was outpaced in the closing stages and finished fourth .

eta : rereading , i realize this could be taken as a knock on reputed testamony . i was not referring to him in any way , more just addressing the objection to friend or foe ( who i know nothing about except what i ' ve read here and seen online . ) rt is an interesting horse , but not particularly fashionable for a track - producing stallion .
the first steps were really to talk to women ,

and to convince them that we could do something about their environment . they didn ' t have firewood , they didn ' t have clean drinking water and they didn ' t have adequate food . a tree brings transformation .
i only put the gay one in to humour a gay friend who remembers the old days when gays would be well advised to check such attitudes before ordering a pint and settling down . today ' s youngsters would probably think it ' s a bit like talking about drinker - friendly bar .

ken livingstone , 62 , has dragged the capital to the top of the major world cities ' environment league . he shocked the more timid tony blair and gordon brown when he set an ambitious 60 % co2 reduction target by 2025 - and now he is championing renewables , energy from waste , heat and power systems , and ways
but it ' s what germany does at home that gives merkel authority . a quantum chemistry researcher brought up by a lutheran pastor in communist east germany , she was made german environment minister in 1994 . the country now leads the world in turning away from coal and oil , and setting the highest targets for renewables and emission cuts .
even so , pan ' s warnings that the economic miracle will end soon because the environment can no longer keep pace have goaded china ' s leadership into action . he has also warned that 26 % of the water in the seven biggest river systems is so polluted that it has
lost the capacity for basic ecological function

peter garrett , 54 , is the former punk lead singer of the disbanded australian rock group midnight oil , who continued his weird journey from radical muso to establishment politician when he was appointed australia ' s environment minister in november . he began with gigs outside exxon offices and protests at the sydney olympics about aboriginal rights , and found himself labelled a turncoat by some at the election . however , he was nominated here by jonathon porritt , for being
instrumental in shaping the australian labour party ' s climate change and environment policies
. within days of his taking office , australia signed up to the kyoto climate change treaty , and has broken with the obstructivist policies of president bush .

tewolde egziabher , 67 , a slight , gandhian figure , is a uk - trained biologist who runs ethiopia ' s environment protection agency and has proved himself an extraordinarily effective negotiator . at 2am at the 2002 earth summit , he made one of the most impassioned speeches heard at a global meeting . it had looked certain that the world ' s politicians would back a us proposal giving the world trade organisation the power to override international environment treaties , but he shamed the ministers into voting it down . no one could remember a personal intervention having such an impact , and his battles on behalf of developing countries to protect them from patents , unfettered free trade and gm crops are legendary . he was nominated by vandana shiva .
the reason why i referred to 1991 earlier as a year of transition is that while we had windows , most people who were using pc ' s considered it brand spanking new , as 3 . 0 was the first version that was considered to be actually usable . windows wasn ' t the predominant application environment . no , that honor went to ms - dos .
my guess is that it ' s not that you ' re being friendly to the environment . it ' s that you ' re being friendly in an environmental way . it ' s actually odd for me to see the dash in
environmentally - friendly
, because the first word in the pair is simply the adverb explaining in what way you are being friendly .
no one can doubt the persuasive powers of wangari maathai , nobel peace prize - winner and 67 - year - old former assistant minister of the environment in kenya . it is she who has coaxed the mexican army , japanese geishas , french celebrities , 10 , 000 malaysian schools , the president of turkmenistan and children in rotherham to roll up their sleeves , dig a hole and plant a tree .
the consultation was carried out by slr consulting ireland ( slr ) as part of a mountain access development assessment for the reeks , initiated on behalf of south kerry development partnership , dept . of environment , community and local government and failte ireland . the slr report , finalised in march 2014 , identified the need for the establishment and resourcing of an appropriate local management structure to oversee the macgillycuddy reeks mountain access scheme .
there was also debate over leonardo dicaprio . it would be easy to sniff at someone who seemed to have merely pledged to forgo private jets and made a couple of films about the environment , but we felt the hollywood superstar who has grabbed the green agenda had to be included because of the worldwide influence he is expected to have . thanks to his massive celebrity status dicaprio could be a crucial figure in persuading and leading the next generation .
icebergs are becoming a recurring theme in the life of 33 - year - old leonardo dicaprio . first , his acting career went stellar after playing the lead in titanic . now it is dramatic footage of icebergs and polar bears , both threatened by climate change , that is a striking feature of his documentary the 11th hour ( released in the uk next month ) , a powerful call to arms for our species to protect the environment a great deal better .
having seen the courage , strength and need of the children , matti found a new way to bring fresh hopes and more than a few smiles to the children with cancer and their families . founded in 1987 by contopulos , children ' s cancer research fund ( ccrf ) is a non - profit organization dedicated to two important goals : to provide support on a national level for clinical research in pediatric cancer and to improve the medical environment for all children .
mohammed valli moosa , 50 , was south africa ' s environment minister from 1999 to 2004 . he has campaigned for transnational african
peace parks
for wildlife and pushed for reduced use of plastic bags . but he may play a much greater role in the global environment debate as chairman of eskom , the state - owned power company that runs south africa ' s only nuclear plant and , starting in 2008 , is hoping to build dozens of fourth - generation small - scale nuclear stations . known as pebble bed modular reactors , these are smaller , cheaper and reportedly safer than other designs and valli moosa says they could be the base of the 21st eco - economy - ideally for desalination plants and creating the raw material for the heralded but slow to appear hydrogen economy . south africa has some of the world ' s greatest reserves of uranium : put them with the technology and it could start looking like a superpower .
then the guardian ' s science , environment and economics correspondents met to add their own nominations and establish a final 50 . great names were argued over , and unknown ones surfaced . should al gore be on the list ? he may have put climate change on the rich countries ' agenda , but some felt his solution of trading emissions is not enough and no more than what all major businesses and western governments are now saying . but in the end he squeaked through .
he has played a prominent role in conducting research and facilitating participatory processes and multi - stakeholder dialogues around water resource management , hydropower , fisheries and local livelihoods in the mekong region – acting as a consultant and advisor to the asian development bank ( adb ) in the 3s river basin ( reta 6367 ) , the mekong river commission and the world bank , and as theme leader on fisheries and livelihoods for the mekong programme on water , environment and resilience ( m - power ) research network .
patriarch bartholomew i , archbishop of constantinople and new rome , is the spiritual leader of 300 million orthodox christians around the world . he ' s also extremely green , each year taking church leaders of all denominations to areas of the world beset with environmental problems - including the amazon , the arctic and the danube . after announcing , on an island in the aegean , that attacks on the environment should be considered sins , he called pollution of the world ' s waters
a new apocalypse
and led global calls for
creation care
. way ahead of his time , he has made the environment an increasingly powerful strand of christian thinking in britain - and latterly the us , where traditionally right wing churches have followed his lead and now openly counter president bush ' s stance . bartholomew , 67 , is now heavily influencing the pope and has shared a green stage with him several times in rome . it all suggests institutional christianity is greening up fast after centuries of ambivalence and outright hostility .
his professional work has involved a range of responsibilities - programme management , capacity building , and policy - oriented action research . he has worked in senior management and advisory positions for the thailand environment institute ( tei ) , the institute of social and environmental transition , the international union for the conservation of nature ( iucn ) and the worldfish centre , and taken on consultancy roles for a range of ngos ( including oxfam , save the children ) , un agencies ( undp , fao and uncdf ) and bilateral donors ( including dfid , danida and sida ) .
family characteristics that could undermine the health of children and adolescents include a family environment that is conflictual , angry , violent , or abusive ; parent / child relationships that are unresponsive and lacking in cohesiveness , warmth , and emotional support ; and parenting styles that are either overly controlling and dominating or that offer little imposition of rules and structure ( taylor et al . , 1997 ) . long - term exposure to such conditions contributes to deficits in emotional understanding , difficulties with appropriate expression of emotion , increased emotional reactivity to conflict , and maladaptive coping strategies for managing stressful events in general .
well , i can only give one upvote to your answer , but i have to say it looks pretty convincing to me . the environment became more of an issue to forward - thinkers thru the 70 ' s and 80 ' s , but marketing departments only really started pushing their products '
green
credentials in the last couple of decades . by the time they got on the bandwagon , responsible , sensitive , concious , etc . , had already staked out the lexical territory . most of those earlier conjunctives required - ally anyway , so the ad - men were just going with the tide of linguistic history . . .
to come up with a list of the 50 people most able to prevent the continuing destruction of the planet , we consulted key people in the global environment debate . our panel included scientists - former world bank chief scientist and now the british government ' s scientific adviser on climate change , bob watson , indian physicist and ecologist vandana shiva , kenyan biologist and nobel prize - winner wangari maathai ; activists - guardian columnist george monbiot and head of greenpeace international gerd leipold ; politicians - green party co - leader and mep caroline lucas , and london mayor ken livingstone ; sustainable development commissioner for the uk government jonathon porritt and novelist philip pullman .
she ' s not so popular with greens , who accuse her of being a lackey to nuclear power and a friend of bush , but they accept that she gets things done . ten years ago , she shocked people when she said germany should aim to raise the proportion of its electricity generated from renewable energy to 50 % by 2050 . it ' s now 12 % - compare britain ' s 3 % - and is on track to be 20 % in 12 years ' time . she asked germans to believe her when she said renewables would provide more jobs . there are now nearly 250 , 000 people working in the sector . and at the un meeting at bali last month , she told the eu it had to stick together and be ambitious . it led the fight against president bush .
with regard to specific disease outcomes , the relationship between ses and cardiovascular disease has received the most attention . ses appears to be an important factor in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease ( kaplan and keil , 1993 ) , the leading cause of death in this country ( national center for health statistics , 1992 ) . the british whitehall study of civil servants found that those in the lowest grades of employment were at highest risk for heart disease ( marmot et al . , 1991 ) and that low levels of personal control in the work environment could explain much of this association ( bosma et al . , 1997 ; marmot et al . , 1997 ) .
yet just a few weeks later he had the english media , and the nation at large , queuing up to praise his self - deprecating wit , his multilingual sophistication and his sublime talent . he was no longer a mercenary thespian , but a down - to - earth guy who drove a vw beetle , gave money to charity and was concerned about the environment . the transformation was perfectly captured by two pieces in the guardian . one , written , in june 1994 , was entitled ' why i hate jürgen klinsmann ' . the other , published a couple of months later , was headed ' why i love jürgen klinsmann ' . they were written by the same writer , and that writer was me .
several experimental studies have investigated the link between the social relationship and cardiovascular reactivity . kamarck et al . ( 1990 ) found that participants asked to complete a laboratory task alone exhibited significantly greater systolic blood pressure and heart rate reactivity than did those who were allowed to have a friend with them . lepore et al . ( 1993 ) varied the degree of social support available to participants asked to give a speech . the three social conditions were to give the speech alone , to give it in the presence of a nonsupportive confederate , and to give it in the presence of a supportive confederate . participants in the last group exhibited the smallest increase in systolic pressure , followed by participants who gave their speeches alone . links between neuroendocrine measures , cardiovascular reactivity , and blood pressure and social relationships might constitute potential pathways by which social networks , support , and engagement influence important health outcomes .
carlo petrini , 58 , is the only anti - mcdonald ' s activist who has been welcomed to the offices of david cameron , david miliband , prince charles , al gore and barack obama . the founder of the international slow food movement , nominated here by vandana shiva , is idolised by rich and leisured foodies for promoting high - quality , small - scale farming and organising a relaxed life around long lunches . but petrini , an italian leftie of the old school , has a far more serious purpose than saving the pilchard or parma ham . the slow food movement has now expanded across 100 countries and is throwing poisoned darts at the whole fast food culture and the multinational food producers that between them have wrecked so much of the environment .
jockin arputham , 60 , has lived in a slum outside mumbai since 1963 . as president of the national slum dwellers association and slum dwellers international , he is rallying the world ' s poorest city dwellers to improve their environment . urban squalor is one of the biggest problems of the age , and by 2030 the number of slum dwellers is projected to reach two billion - a recipe for poverty , disease and political instability . arputham has pioneered a way to help the poor negotiate with city authorities to secure land ownership - the greatest barrier to improving slums . dozens of other new urban groups are working in 70 countries and hundreds of thousands of people have benefited . global urbanisation is inevitable , and these new federations will have more and more ecological influence .

lowry served 21 years in elective offices in washington - - 1976 to 1978 in the king county council , 1979 to 1989 representing the 7th district in congress , and 1993 to 1997 as governor . a vociferous , table - pounding liberal , he came from a family of new deal democrats in the palouse , and he was respected by friend and foe because they knew where he stood . he was variously described as
mercurial ,
frumpy ,
earthy ,
and
irascible
( anderson ) . in 1995 , a former staff member charged him with sexual harassment and he did not seek re - election as governor . he remained active in a range of public - sector projects , primarily in migrant housing and the homeless . he also served in various volunteer capacities , such as co - chair of the king county charter review commission and co - chair of the washington wildlife and recreation coalition .
in some cases it ' s also sometimes tough to take a call on which is more correct . is an

environmentally - friendly , or is it environment - friendly ? there ' s as much semantics in r & d as in marketing & advertising . company a might claim the former , while company b might object . and while the government , the companies and the scientists go about interminably to reach a consensus , marketing and q3 targets cannot wait . so , a convenient eco - friendly is used instead . this doesn ' t make it explicit if it means ecologically - friendly , or ecology - friendly , so the guys in legal like it . it ' s also shorter , so adland likes it . run with it .
andrew kimbrell , 51 , was a concert pianist and music teacher in new york before he joined an emerging breed of activist lawyers forcing governments to take the environment much more seriously . last year in the us supreme court , he defeated the bush administration ' s policy of refusing to regulate global warming . it was a defining moment in the american debate and forced bush to regulate carbon dioxide pollution from motor vehicles under the clean air act . kimbrell is now working with others to devise a new concept of ' natural law ' based on the idea that humans are just one part of a wider community of beings and that the welfare of each member of that community depends on the welfare of the earth as a whole . it sounds heretical now , but is traditional in many societies and one to watch in the west .
many of these saplings may not survive more than a few weeks , and the numbers are not to be trusted , but the billion tree campaign shows that maathai - a professor of biology and mother of three children - has gone from being almost unknown in 2003 to a global treasure in just a few years . there is now barely a president or prime minister in europe , asia or africa who has not invited maathai to endorse their plans or tried to sign her up as a goodwill ambassador to show off their newfound enthusiasm for the environment . she has addressed the un general assembly , carried the flag at the olympic games , and received sackfuls of citations and awards . maathai has succeeded in putting deforestation high on the agenda in developing countries , just as al gore made people in rich countries aware of climate change .
despite enormous improvements in sanitary engineering , which have contributed to the sharp increase in life expectancy observed among all socioeconomic groups during the past century , the socioeconomic gradient in health status persists . it has been proposed that the ses gap is still attributable to effects of crowded and unsanitary housing , air and water pollution , inadequate food supply , poor working conditions , and other such deficits that disproportionately affect those in the lower socioeconomic strata . studies that incorporate assessments of material deprivation and the physical environment will be important to sort out the degree to which this is an important pathway . however , inasmuch as the gradient in morbidity and mortality persists even between middle - class and well - to - do men and women and even in societies in which material conditions are very good , it seems unlikely that gradients are solely the result of these material circumstances .
understanding why “poor people behave poorly” ( lynch et al . , 1997a ) requires recognition that specific behaviors once thought of as falling exclusively within the realm of individual choice occur in a social context . the social environment influences behavior by shaping norms ; enforcing patterns of social control ( which can be health promoting or health damaging ) ; providing or not providing environmental opportunities to engage in particular behaviors ; and reducing or producing stress , for which engaging in specific behaviors might be an effective short - term coping strategy ( berkman and kawachi , 2000 ) . environments , especially social contexts , place constraints on individual choice . incorporating the social context into behavioral interventions led to a new array of clinical trials that take advantage of communities , schools , and worksites to achieve behavioral change ( see sorensen et al . , 1998 ; chapter 6 , this volume ) .
jia zhangke , 37 , is among the most prominent artists raising awareness about the environment . his film still life , which won the 2006 golden lion award at venice , is a tale of social upheaval and ecological destruction set against the backdrop of the three gorges dam in china - one of the world ' s biggest hydroelectric projects which has forced millions of people to move . it tells the story of a man and a woman who are searching for their spouses in a town that has been flooded by the rising waters of the mighty reservoir behind the barrier . the film was passed by the chinese censors despite its portrayal of official corruption , land seizures and thuggish violence . this is the best - known cinematic critique of the ecological destruction in china , but many other artists and film - makers are now addressing the problems of the country ' s breakneck race for economic growth .
marina silva , 49 , is brazil ' s environment minister . the daughter of a brazilian rubber tapper , she spent her childhood collecting rubber from the amazon forest and demonstrating against the destruction wrought by illegal loggers . in one of the great political journeys , she rose from being illiterate at 16 to become brazil ' s youngest senator , and is now the woman most able to prevent the amazon ' s wholesale ruin . under her watch , deforestation has reduced by nearly 75 % and millions of square miles of reserves have been given to traditional communities . last year 1 , 500 companies were raided and one million cubic metres of illegally felled timber were confiscated . but the future , says silva , is peril ous . the only way that long - term loss will be averted is with foreign help .
we don ' t want charity , it ' s a question of ethics of solidarity ,

the aim of the mas was to formally agree recreational access with landowners on a mountain / mountain range or in selected uplands area , to facilitate recreational access to those uplands . the mas would map out designated access points , provide indemnity to landowners against specified claims , provide adequate parking and related facilities and any additional infrastructure required to support the specified recreational activities . access to upland areas should be carried out only in a manner that protects and enhances the natural environment , local habitats and ecosystems , while supporting rural development and development of the economic potential of local assets for the benefit of landowners , local communities and other stakeholders . the mas should also leverage the available public and private funding resources , including investigation of user charges / licensing / donations / philanthropy , commercial sponsorship and / or levies or contributions from commercial operators and beneficiaries . the overall aim is to ensure that use of the mountain access area and its associated facilities and services can be marketed and promoted , with clarity and confidence .
at the moment , he is making his own meticulous study of coaching methods . hence his appearance at his friend bruce arena , the us team coach ' s training session . ' i always look at coaches and think what can i learn from them . many american coaches actually know far more than some european coaches because they ' re constantly studying and learning . they use the resources of the university system , and get the update on speed and psychology . i know some coaches in europe who still do the same sprint training as 15 years ago because they were successful then . but these coaches are looking at new developments . that ' s why it ' s very exciting to live here . if i want to look at ucla research , i can . i know that no club in europe will do that . ' he thinks football should learn from us sports , such as basketball . ' look at how they react as soon as they shoot a basket . they defend right away . they don ' t even think about it . but soccer players lose a ball and start thinking
what do i have to do now ?
. . . i think in europe we ' re a little bit too football focused .

( sturm , 1843 ) is a species endemic to greece . it is mainly known from peloponnese peninsula but can also be found in atica , the greek mainland . the host plant of this spectacular european longhorn beetle has long been unknown . in 1967 carl von demelt [ ❖ ] observed a number of specimens of this insect and suggested that the species developed in
( in root system of a small thistle species , asteraceae , transl . and note by authors ) . this information has then been repeated in later works ( e . g . bense , 1995 ) . the correct host ,
( apiaceae ) , has only been discovered by a french group ( renvaze & renvaze , ✧ ) in 2004 . also another species of genus

. good species . can you put the more precise locality ? peloponnes is vague . . . .
: ok : . good species . can you put the more precise locality ? peloponnes is vague . . . .
yes cosmin , my opinion is that coordinates are the most precise instrument to identify a locality , but have also a toponym , like a province , or a big city is better , in this way you can identify the locality without search on google earth , for example , and understand immediatly if the specimen is interestring or new for the country .
so
greece : korinthia : kionia ( near ) : stimfalia lake
is on my label .
you have the exact coordinates there . . . ( 37 . 854341 / 22 . 459604 ) . . . more precise than that but if you really need a toponym . . . near stimphalia lake .
cosmin , i ' ve checked this coordinates simply paste into google maps . locality is in center of lake : - )
write please , how do you obtain the reading measurements ? simply from gps ? check it please .
