 | Saving a Cedar Forest - Nasri Kawar The Tannourine cedar forest is the largest forest in Lebanon. It has been declared a nature reserve in 1999. In recent years, a serious new insect pest, Cephalcia tannourinensis, appeared causing severe damage to trees. AUB scientists, Nasri S. Kawar and Nabil Nemer, have been involved in studying the life cycle of the pest and developing means of minimizing its damage. Financial support has been received from GEF-UNEP, FAO, Lebanese Ministries of Agriculture and environment. The DVD shows the accomplishments in managing this insect pest and related activities that have been supported throught a $1.2 million project entitled "Integrated Management of Cedar Forests in Lebanon in Collaboration with other Mediterranean Countries" funded by GEF-UNEP to the Ministry of Environment and implemented by AUB from 2004-2007. |
 | The War in Lebanon Caroline Glick sent over this clip from Shlomo Blass, who is a freelance journalist and television producer in Israe. He put together the following clip on the Lebanon War. Shlomo has only limited access to internet now because he's been mobilized in reserves where he serves in a paratroopers unit. Glick thinks (as do I) that this film makes very clear the nature and seriousness of the war that Israel is now facing. |
