The flames raging across Australia have destroyed homes and wiped out entire cities. Since the start of the 2019 fire season, 10 million hectares of land have burned across the continent! For comparison: the state of New South Wales alone burned about 5 million hectares of land, which is larger than the Netherlands!

"The man with the golden hand" saved 2.4 million babies with his blood https://citymagazine.si/en/the-man-with-the-golden-hand-has-saved-24-million-babies-with-his-blood/ Thu, 17 May 2018 04:01:09 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=349151

In 1951, 14-year-old James Harrison from Australia woke up after major chest surgery. Doctors removed one of his lungs and hospitalized him for 3 months. During this difficult time, Harrison learned that he survived mainly because of the large amount of transfused blood he received. At that time, he promised to become a blood donor himself. Former Australian law required donors to be over 18, so James had to wait 4 years. And he waited and fulfilled his promise. The Australian Red Cross estimates that James has saved millions of lives through his regular blood donation for as many as 60 years.

Top 10: Best Restaurants in the World 2017 https://citymagazine.si/en/top-10-best-restaurants-in-the-world-2017/ Thu, 06 Apr 2017 06:02:40 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=298378

The best restaurants in the world 2017 are known. After the selection academy for the 50 best restaurants in the world (50 Best Restaurants) recently revealed the best restaurants from the 51st to the 100th place (the Slovenian Hiša Franko was also in the 69th place), at the gala at the award ceremony in Melbourne, Australia, the really best ones were announced. After 12 years, the European dominance ended, and the American restaurant, which was third last year, took the throne. It is only the second American restaurant with this flattering title, after two-time winner The French Laundry by Thomas Keller.

A revolutionary waste tire fuel that will save the world from tons of waste https://citymagazine.si/en/revolutionary-fuel-from-waste-tires-which-will-save-the-world-tons-of-waste/ Thu, 01 Dec 2016 07:06:43 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=273285

Used or waste tires are a big ecological problem. Due to vulcanization, they are extremely difficult to recycle. Most are thus doomed to rot in landfills, but thanks to Green Distillation Technologies (GDT), they have a brighter future ahead of them. There have been many ideas for recycling tires, but probably none better than this startup that wants to use them to make fuel.

By some strange coincidence, the measure of a good destination is the number of tourists who visit it - so the more tourists, the better the destination. But this is not always true. There are hundreds of gems in the world, paradises on Earth, which surprisingly are not yet so popular among travelers. Here are the amazing places we must visit before they are overrun by tourists!

In Australia, some literally live down there ("Down Under" is Australia's nickname). Namely, the mining town of Coober Pedy is a town with more than 3,500 inhabitants gathered from all over the world (from more than 45 countries), located in South Australia. It is an unprecedented city that has been supplying the world with opals since 1915, and the mining town also relies on tourism.

Living on the edge: a house that resembles a spaceship could be your new home https://citymagazine.si/en/life-on-the-edge-of-a-house-reminiscent-of-a-spaceship-can-be-your-new-home/ Thu, 24 Sep 2015 03:45:45 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=185852

If this is what life looks like on the edge, then we immediately sign up to such a fate. An Australian estate in Port Douglas that you'd be forgiven for mistaking for a spaceship juts out of a hill that rises above the idyllic Australian coast, creating a real sense of living on the edge. The luxury home is currently for sale, but of course the owner won't part with it for a little money. You will have to shell out a staggering 6.5 million US dollars for it. And yes, it is real estate.

More and more people are looking for information online, and most of the time we turn to Google. And because we love statistics, Google Trends regularly supplies us with lists of the most searched things. This time he tickled us with a list of the most searched countries. This one is a bit surprising, because the countries that have not much in common ended up at the top. But they all share at least one characteristic. They arouse great interest among people.
