EARTH DAY ON HELLO MALAYSIA TV BERNAMA

Earth Day, a day dedicated to the environmental health of our planet. Earth Day is observed in many countries around the world with programs designed to educate people about Earth’s environment and threats to the environment.
Activities intended to improve the environment also take place. Earth Day is most often celebrated on April 22, but some people observe it on March 21. Activities surrounding Earth Day may continue for weeks or months.

Earth Day was first observed on April 22, 1970

Environmental groups use Earth Day as an occasion to draw attention to current local and global environmental problems and to discuss commonsense solutions. At fairs, festivals, and talks, people learn about air pollution, water pollution, and soil pollution; the destruction of habitats, Ecosystem; the devastation of hundreds of thousands of plant and animal species (Endangered Species); the depletion of nonrenewable resources (Conservation); and global warming. They explore exhibits on such topics as conserving energy, recycling, renewing natural habitats, leading healthier lives, making their backyards friendly to wildlife, and protecting endangered species. Volunteers gather to pick up litter; clean up streams, reservoirs, and other water supplies; restore parks; plant trees; and participate in other environmental activities.


Each person must plant at least two trees to support themself.

Herons in Rawang


Prof Dr. Ahmad Ismail (UPM) inspecting heron's eggs at Rawang.

Thousands of herons (night herons and cattle egrets) are roosting and nesting there.

They need space to continue their life.

There will be no future for them at their roosting and nesting area now.

They need to move again.

They are nomadic now but until when and where to.



Heron's eggs


Heron's chicks



Kuala Lumpur - Malaysian wildlife officers arrested three Vietnamese men in a mangrove swamp for poaching protected species of birds, a news report said Sunday.
About 400 black-crowned night heron (Nycticoraqx nycticorax) eggs and chicks were seized from the suspects, aged 21 to 34, the Star daily reported.
Wildlife director Rahmat Topani, who led the operation Saturday after a month’s surveillance, said they were alerted by several conservationists living nearby.
The Vietnamese men believed that consumption of the bird’s meat would increase the libido, he said.
Rahmat said all three men had admitted to poaching for self-consumption with fellow Vietnamese workers from a nearby printing factory in the central Selangor state.
The suspects would be charged on Wednesday, and could face fines of 6,000 ringgit (1,740 dollars) and up to six years in jail.

Viets held for heron poaching
SHAH ALAM: Conservationists helped the Selangor Wildlife and National Parks Department nab three Vietnamese poachers at the Kuala Garing mangrove swamp area in Rawang.
About 400 black-crowned night heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) eggs of a light green hue and eight month-old chicks were seized from the Vietnamese, aged 21, 22 and 34.
Wildlife director Rahmat Topani, who led the operation after a month’s surveillance, said the department was alerted about the suspected poachers at 10.50am yesterday by several conservationists living nearby.
At a press conference yesterday, Rahmat said all three men admitted to poaching for self-consumption with fellow Vietnamese workers from a nearby printing firm in Taman Selingan.
It is learnt that the Vietnamese men would cook the Asian migratory bird, a protected species, by frying it with chillies, and the meal is downed with beer.
According to a Vietnamese migrant worker in Klang, the bird’s meat increases the libido.
Rahmat said the three men would be charged at the Selayang magistrates court on Wednesday. If found guilty, they could be fined RM6,000 or jailed for six years, or both.
“We hope to work with residents living in other parts of Selangor close to swamp areas to nab such culprits,” Rahmat said.
