Original language summary:
Ekologija in svetlobno onesnaževanje okolja.
Knjiga osvetljuje kmetijsko obremenjevanje v izbranih slovenskih pokrajinah. Preučevanja so zajela štiri poglavitne slovenske pokrajinske tipe: ravnine, gričevja, hribovja in kraške pokrajine. ...Terensko raziskovanje na ravni kmetij je potekalo v 18 pokrajinah. Anketiranih je bilo 1006 kmetij in analiziranih 162 vzorcev vode. V ospredju obravnave so kmetije kot razpršeni viri tovrstnega obremenjevanja. Predstavljeni so razširjenost obremenjevanja po posameznih pokrajinah, notranje razlike, pokrajinska povprečja, primerjava med pokrajinami in med pokrajinskimi tipi ter skupno povprečje vseh obravnavanih pokrajin. Avtorica obravnava različne oblike kmetijskega obremenjevanja, njihovo intenzivnost, išče povezave med družbenogospodarsko sestavo kmetij in načini kmetovanja. Prikaže glavne dejavnike, ki vplivajo na kmetijsko onesnaženost pokrajine, predstavi pa tudi okoljsko ozaveščenost kmetovalcev.

Otters, symbols of clean waters and clean environment, which have returned to Cerknica Lake.
Original language summary:
V Cerkniško jezero so se vrnile vidre, znanilke čiste vode in čistega okolja.
The modern way of life requires the exploitation of natural resources, which leads to a significant deterioration of the environment and can even endanger human health.The basic hypothesis is that ...the population of Slovenia in general is still too inadequately informed and insufficiently environmentally educated and aware about water as a natural resource to have the motivation and capability to actively participate in the protection of water as a natural resource.Most people support environmental protection in principle, especially declaratively, since this is a socially approved action. However, when faced with restrictions that would interfere with their way of life by limiting their activities or increasing their expenses, their enthusiasm decreases rapidly. And the closer we get to actions we could define as “environmentally active,” the fewer people are actually prepared to protect the environment. Possibly a fifth of the population can be defined as people who favour environmental protection and consider it a value for which they themselves are willing to do something.The survey showed that level of education is very significant relative to people’s response to environmental problems and that the more educated are more environmentally friendly.

Človéška ríbica, tudi močeríl ali próteus (znanstveno ime Proteus anguinus) je dvoživka, ki živi v podzemnih vodah Dinarskega krasa od porečja reke Soče pri Trstu v Italiji, ...preko južne Slovenije in jugozahodne Hrvaške do reke Trebišnice v Hercegovini.2 Je edini evropski predstavnik družine močerilarjev (Proteidae), edini predstavnik rodu Proteus in edini jamski vretenčar v Evropi. Preostalih šest predstavnikov družine uvrščamo v rod Necturus. Živijo na vzhodu ZDA, kjer naseljujejo površinske vode.
Večina sorodnikov močerila (močeradi in pupki, žabe) ima ličinke v vodi, po preobrazbi (metamorfozi) pa gre odrasla žival na kopno in ponovno odloži jajca v vodo. Močeril se ne preobrazi, je neotenična žival, kar pomeni, da še odrasel in spolno zrel ohrani nekatere mladostne (juvenilne) znake ličinke zaradi upočasnjenega telesnega razvoja. Ohrani zunanje škrge, škržne reže in kožo z mnogimi značilnostmi ličinke.
Močeril je dinarski endemit, njegova razširjenost je torej omejena na Dinarski kras. Črni močeril pa je še ožji, verjetno belokranjski endem. Obenem je močeril relikt, torej ostanek neke favne, ki je naseljevala širše območje v davni preteklosti. (vir Wikipedia)
The Olm, or Proteus (Proteus anguinus), is a blind amphibian endemic to the subterranean waters of caves of the Dinaric karst of southern Europe. It lives in the waters that flow underground through this extensive limestone region including waters of the Soča river basin near Trieste in Italy, through to southern Slovenia, southwestern Croatia, and Herzegovina.2 The olm is the only species in its genus Proteus, the only European species of the family Proteidae, and the only European exclusively cave-dwelling chordate. It is also occasionally called the "human fish" by locals because of its skin color, similar to that of white people (translated literally from Slovene: človeška ribica and Croatian: čovječja ribica), as well as "cave salamander" or "white salamander."3 In Slovenia it is also known by the name močeril, which translates as "the one that burrows into wetness."4
This animal is most notable for its adaptations to a life of complete darkness in its underground habitat. The olm's eyes are undeveloped, leaving it blind, while its other senses, particularly those of smell and hearing, are acutely developed. It also lacks any pigmentation in its skin. In contrast to most amphibians, the olm is entirely aquatic, and it eats, sleeps, and breeds underwater. It has 3 toes on its forelimbs, but 2 toes on its hind feet. It also exhibits neoteny, retaining larval characteristics like external gills into adulthood,5 like the American amphibians, the axolotl and the mud puppy. (Wikipedia)
