Fair use rationale for Image:Nova919.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Nova919.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:36, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Anda, Pangasinan

Anda, officially the Municipality of Anda (Bolinao: Babali nin Anda; Baley na Anda; Ili ti Anda; ), is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Pangasinan, Philippines. Unique in this part of the province, The Sambalic language of Bolinao or Binubolinao is primarily spoken in the municipality and the adjacent town of Bolinao. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 41,548 people.

History
On the north-west portion of Lingayen Gulf lies a group of islands which comprise the territory of Anda.

Before the middle of the nineteenth century, the islands which comprise the municipality were uninhabited. Only occasionally did seafarers and fishermen use the coast as havens.

Andres de la Cruz Cacho, fondly called in Bolinao as Andales Kulayo, discovered a vast tract of land suitable for grazing and fertile lowlands, and an abundant spring for agriculture. It was he who brought families from the town of Bolinao aboard a big boat and dispersed them on the island of Cabarruyan in 1842. The spread of population was rapid.

On May 10, 1842, the pioneers landed on what is now the barrio of Dolaoan, put up a settlement, and chose San Miguel Arcangel as their Patron Saint. On May 25, 1842, they established Carot and Cabungan with Santa Lucia as the common Saint of the two settlements.

In the first of June of same year, Tondol was founded. Sablig was settled in the middle of June. By the third week of June, Macaleeng was occupied.

No family was willing, to stay in Toritori at the time and so the place was bypassed. The settlers proceeded to Awile and Aruab (now Roxas) and by early July, they have established settlements in the area.

By August, Mal-Ong, Awag, Santa Rita, and San Nicolas were established. Within a period of only four months, May to August, 1842, the whole island of Cabarruyan was populated.

A steady stream of settlers followed the first pioneers and soon within a few years, the population was large enough to form a municipality.

In January, 1849 a conference of leaders was called by Don Pablo Cacho Valerio through his son Don Domingo with the end in view to established a new town. The leaders drafted a petition for the creation of a new town and sent copies on March 15, 1849, to Don Jose Sanchez y Guerrero, the then Alcalde at Iba, Zambales and to the Archbishop of Manila.

On May 26, 1849, the Alcalde brought the reply granting the petition. Accompanied by the Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Juan Migrano, Capitan Felipe Cacho Valerio, and other municipal officials of Bolinao, the Alcalde came to Cabarruyan to choose a suitable location for the town site. They agreed on Segat in the center of the island which is now known as Namagbagan. The site for the plaza, church, town hall, convent, cemetery, and streets were laid out on January 20, 1850, by order of the Alcalde.

Anda was once a part of the municipality of Bolinao.

Geography
The municipality consists primarily of Cabarruyan Island (also known as Anda Island), as well as minor surrounding islets. Because of Anda's proximity near the Hundred Islands, a popular tourist destination for its caves and beaches, it is the so-called "Mother of the Hundred Islands."

Anda is 77 km from Lingayen and 283 km from Manila.

Barangays
Anda is politically subdivided into 18 barangays. Each barangay consists of puroks and some have sitios.

 * Awile
 * Awag
 * Batiarao
 * Cabungan
 * Carot
 * Dolaoan
 * Imbo
 * Macaleeng
 * Macando-candong
 * Mal-ong
 * Namagbagan
 * Poblacion
 * Roxas
 * Sablig
 * San Jose
 * Siapar
 * Tondol
 * Tori-tori

Language
The people of Anda generally speak Pangasinan, Bolinao, and Ilocano.

Economy
The town thrives on farming and deep-sea fishing.

In the past, progress in the town was sluggish due to its dependence to a landing barge to cross the Catubig Channel separating Anda to mainland Bolinao. In 1996, trade has increased due to a bridge connecting the municipality to the mainland. This bridge, known as Anda Bridge, was sponsored and inaugurated by then President Fidel V. Ramos, who hails from Pangasinan. Main roads have been concreted for faster access to the barangays, especially tourism related places.

Local government
Anda, belonging to the first congressional district of the province of Pangasinan, is governed by a mayor designated as its local chief executive and by a municipal council as its legislative body in accordance with the Local Government Code. The mayor, vice mayor, and the councilors are elected directly by the people through an election which is being held every three years.

Transportation
The town is accessible through land transportation. Two main bus companies serve commuters to and from Anda to Manila or neighboring towns and cities. These are Dagupan Bus Co., Inc.and Pangasinan Five Star Bus Co. Mini buses and jeepneys are also available for commuters going to neighboring towns and cities, like Alaminos and Dagupan.

Fossil Finds
In the year 2000, fossils were found in barangay San Jose and barangay Awile. Fossils in barangay Awile were found only a few centimeters from the surface due to extensive erosion in the area. In San Jose, the fossils were discovered 3 meters from the ground surface. Most of the fossils were found in clay layer with limestone rubbles.

Among the faunal fossils discovered were from Stegodon sp., Elephas sp (large)., Elephas beyeri Von Koenigsvald (dwarf), Rhinoceros philippinensis, Cerpis sp. and Bovid sp.

Dalarö

Dalarö is a locality situated in Haninge Municipality, Stockholm County, Sweden with 1,199 inhabitants in 2010.

It is situated south-east of Stockholm and is part of Metropolitan Stockholm and serves as a recreational summer spot for Stockholmers. At the beginning of the year 2004, the automobile company Volvo used the town for the unconventional The Mystery of Dalarö advertising campaign.

Dalarö is Haninge Municipality's oldest locality, originally an old maritime pilot and customs community. Today Dalarö is largely characterized by the developments which were added in the late 1800s, when the area became a popular summer resort for Stockholmers. Dalarö has long been home to Swedish high society's seaside houses. Since the 19th century, the town of Dalarö has been a holiday resort for the international guests.

Animal Aid

Animal Aid is a British animal rights organisation, founded in 1977 by Jean Pink. The group campaigns peacefully against the consumption of animals as food and against animal cruelty such as their use for medical research—and promotes a cruelty-free lifestyle. It also investigates and exposes animal abuse.

Animal Aid conducts undercover investigations, produces campaign reports, leaflets and fact files, as well as educational videos and other resources. They also offer a quarterly magazine and a sales catalogue with vegan and cruelty-free products.

Aims and objectives
Animal Aid was founded in January 1977 to work, by all peaceful means, for an end to animal cruelty. The organization is a not-for-profit limited company run by a volunteer council of management. It has not applied to be a charity so that it is able to use its funds for sometimes controversial campaigns. Its aims are:
 * To increase public awareness of the abuse of animals in our society, particularly in vivisection laboratories and factory farms and to educate public opinion to demand, by all lawful means, the abolition of all experiments on animals, factory farming and all other forms of animal abuse.
 * To examine existing legislation on matters associated with the above objectives or related aspects and to promote social, legal and administrative reforms in furtherance of the above objectives.
 * To prevent exploitation of animals.
 * To educate the public and particularly young people with a sense of moral responsibility towards animals.
 * To promote, generally, a lifestyle which does not involve the abuse of animals.
 * To collect, and diffuse among members and the public generally, information on all matters affecting the above objectives and with a view there to print, issue and circulate papers, periodicals, books, circulars and other literary matter and produce film and audio-visual material, and to promote, sponsor, procure or assist in any way, courses or lectures or other instructions in furtherance of such objectives.

Celebrity supporters
Animal Aid's current patrons are Peter Egan, Sara Pascoe, Carol Royle, Peter Tatchell and Wendy Turner Webster. It has other celebrity supporters, including Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden, Thom Yorke, Stella McCartney, Richard Wilson, Massive Attack, Alexei Sayle, Benjamin Zephaniah, Martin Shaw, Chrissie Hynde, Alan Davies and the Reverend Professor Andrew Linzey. Patrons and supporters now deceased have included Watership Down author Richard Adams, Tony Benn and comedian Spike Milligan.

Dr Charlotte Uhlenbroek, the primatologist, has supported the Animal Aid campaign against primate experiments, stating: "I have yet to hear a sufficiently compelling scientific argument that justifies the suffering inflicted on primates in medical research."

BBC TV Springwatch's Michaela Strachan presented Animal Aid's Animal Kind series of short curriculum-based educational films.

Campaigns
Animal Aid campaigns include:
 * Wildlife: Animal Aid campaigns against wildlife culls, including the culling of badgers, wild boar, grey squirrels and pigeons. It has opposed shooting and the use of traps, snares and poisons in the name of conservation, and "calls for tolerance, for compassion and a willingness to concede space to the natural world". It has produced information and advice sheets on humanely deterring unwanted wildlife, including the use of non-lethal methods. In 2021 Animal Aid launched a campaign to ban the manufacture, sale, possession and use of snares in the UK. The campaign presents footage of snares causing extreme suffering to animals, the failure of the 'Code of Best Practice', and the fact that in 2016 a majority of MPs voted for an outright ban. In March 2022 Animal Aid's UK Parliament petition to ban snares reached over 100,000 signatures, triggering a parliamentary debate.
 * Animal farming: Animal Aid campaigns against factory farming. It exposes animal suffering in UK intensive farming systems as well as in 'high welfare' rearing systems, such as RSPCA Assured or free-range. It conducts undercover investigations with footage documenting animal suffering, overcrowding and poor conditions on UK farms. This has included farms winning Farmer of the Year awards, free-range and RSPCA Assured farms. Investigations have exposed the suffering of meat chickens, egg-laying hens, turkeys, pigs, cows and goats. Animal Aid highlights and objects to planning proposals for new intensive farms. In 2021 this included rabbit meat and fur farms. It also campaigns against the suffering of fish and environmental damage caused by the fishing industry.
 * Slaughter: Animal Aid uses hidden cameras to film in UK slaughterhouses. It has filmed inside sixteen British slaughterhouses, finding evidence of lawbreaking in most of them. Its films have revealed widespread and serious problems, including many cases of deliberate cruelty. It also found breaches of welfare laws at slaughterhouses used by 'high welfare' accredited standards, including organic and RSPCA Assured. Even where no laws were broken, it has found animals suffering pain and fear. Following Animal Aid's CCTV campaign, all the major supermarket chains agreed to insist that their suppliers fit CCTV cameras in their slaughterhouses. Animal Aid campaigns for mandatory independently monitored CCTV in all UK slaughterhouses. Although this has now happened in England and Scotland, it continues to campaign for mandatory CCTV in Wales and Northern Ireland.
 * Animal experiments: Animal Aid campaigns against animal experimentation on both moral and scientific grounds. It highlights the scale of animal experimentation in the UK: that around 4 million animals are experimented on in British laboratories each year, and that around every 8 seconds one animal dies. It also publicises that, as well as rats and mice, a wide range of animals are experimented on, including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits and monkeys. It champions the increasing potential of humane, non-animal research, including test tube (in vitro) and computer (in silico) based methods, and points to documented failures of the animal model, questioning its viability. Victims of Charity: This campaign aims to persuade medical research charities to stop funding animal experiments and to use methods such as epidemiological studies; in vitro research using human cell and tissue cultures; clinical studies; human autopsy examinations; computerised patient-drug databases and post-marketing surveillance; mathematical models and computer simulations and non-invasive imaging techniques. Since the launch of the campaign, two major charities have committed to stop funding animal research. Animal Aid publishes a list of UK health charities indicating their animal research status - whether or not each charity funds or conducts animal research. Animal Aid campaigns to stop warfare experiments on animals. In the UK these are conducted by the Ministry of Defence's  Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) at Porton Down.  These experiments, conducted on thousands of animals each year, include the use of nerve agents, chemical or biological weapons and the simulation of blast injury. Examples include shooting rodents in the eyes, applying nerve agents to guinea pigs and infecting monkeys with Ebola.  In 2020 Animal Aid coordinated an open letter to the UK Government, signed by a number of animal advocacy organisations, public figures, parliamentarians and over 8000 individuals, calling for a ban on the use of animals in warfare experiments.  It also campaigned for MPs to support an Early Day Motion calling for a ban, which 100 MPs signed.
 * Horse racing: This aims for an end to commercial horse racing, and as a first step, a ban on the use of the whip except for safety purposes. Whip regulations have been somewhat tightened up since the launch of the campaign. Animal Aid's undercover investigation into horse slaughter revealed video evidence of practices and conditions in UK abattoirs providing horsemeat for human consumption abroad. This included former race industry horses. The investigation was featured in a 2021 BBC Panorama programme, The Dark Side of Horse Racing. Later that year the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) announced that it would not permit the sale of race horses to abattoirs to be slaughtered for meat. Race Horse Death Watch is Animal Aid’s online database that records thoroughbred deaths on British racecourses. In March 2022 Animal Aid launched the Irish Horse Death Watch website which lists all horses killed due to racing on racecourses in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
 * Game bird shooting: Animal Aid campaigns for an end to the production and shooting of animals for pleasure. Some 50 million pheasants and partridges are intensively farmed every year so that they can be released and shot for sport. In 2010, the outgoing Labour government was about to ban the metal battery cages in which thousands of egg-producing pheasants and partridges are confined to their productive lives. But this was overturned by the incoming Coalition government. Animal Aid continues its campaign for the cages to be outlawed.
 * Veganism: Animal Aid promotes a cruelty-free diet, provides free cookery demonstrations in schools, and sends out free information packs and other literature. A central feature of the campaign is the Great Vegan Challenge, which is staged every November.
 * Living without cruelty: Animal Aid promotes a cruelty-free lifestyle, encouraging people to help end animal suffering through ordinary, everyday decisions which choose compassion over cruelty. It focuses on clothing, cosmetics, toiletries and household products, such as cleaning materials and duvets. Animal Aid discourages participation in sport and leisure activities which kill animals or cause animal suffering. It exposes animal suffering in the pet trade, and recommends adopting companion animals from rescue centres, sanctuaries or shelters rather than buying them from pet shops or breeders. It also encourages people not to buy exotic pets.

Christmas Fayre
Animal Aid's Christmas Festival is held every year, early in December, in London, England, to promote a cruelty-free lifestyle.

There are goods for sale including fair trade crafts and jewellery, cruelty-free cosmetics, recycled goods, environmentally friendly clothing, non-leather boots and shoes and seasonal cards and gifts. There is a lecture programme throughout the day, plus a wide variety of vegan food. It is promoted as a family event.

There is also an annual South West Christmas Without Cruelty Fayre held in Exeter, England.

Don Black (white supremacist)

Stephen Donald Black (born July 28, 1953) is an American white supremacist. He is the founder and webmaster of the neo-Nazi, Holocaust denial, and homophobic website Stormfront.Sources which consider Stormfront a white supremacist website are:
 * He was a Grand Wizard in the Ku Klux Klan and a member of the American Nazi Party in the 1970s, though at the time he was a member it was known as the "National Socialist White Peoples' Party".

Early life
Black was born in Athens, Alabama, and became a white supremacy advocate at an early age when he began handing out swastika-adorned pamphlets from the National Socialist White People's Party at his high school, Athens High School, before transferring to Madison Academy in the fall of 1970 in order to avoid attending school with black students. This led to a decision by the local school board to ban the distribution of political literature. Black countered by mailing literature to student addresses obtained from school handbooks.

In the summer of 1970, after his junior year at Athens High School, Black traveled to Savannah, Georgia, to work on the gubernatorial campaign of J. B. Stoner, a segregationist and leader of the National States' Rights Party (NSRP). It was in this election that Jimmy Carter won the Georgia governorship. Black was asked to obtain a copy of the NSRP membership list by Robert Lloyd, a leader of the National Socialist White People's Party, formerly known as the American Nazi Party. At the time, Black was a member of the Party's youth branch, the National Socialist Youth Movement.

Also working on the Stoner campaign was Jerry Ray, brother of James Earl Ray, who committed the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. On July 25, 1970, Jerry Ray shot Black (who was 16 at the time) in the chest with a .38-caliber hollow-point bullet to stop him from taking files from Stoner's campaign office. Ray was acquitted of all charges, saying he shot in self-defense after Black reached for what appeared to be a weapon.

Black finished his senior year at Madison Academy, a private school in Huntsville. Then after high school, Black graduated from the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa in 1975. In the early 1970s, Black traveled on a road trip to an American Nazi Party conference in Virginia with fellow white supremacists David Duke and Joseph Paul Franklin (the latter of who was later convicted of multiple acts of racial and antisemitic terrorism and executed for serial murder).

The Ku Klux Klan and Operation Red Dog
Black joined the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in 1975, one year after David Duke took over the organization. He moved to Birmingham to become the group's state organizer. After the resignation of Duke in 1980, Black became Grand Wizard, or national director, of the Klan. In 1979, he ran for mayor of Birmingham, receiving 2.5% of the vote. Richard Arrington Jr. won the mayoral election, becoming Birmingham's first African American mayor.

On April 27, 1981, Black and nine other would-be mercenaries – many recruited from Klan affiliated organizations – were arrested in New Orleans as they prepared to board a boat stocked with weapons and ammunition to invade the island nation Dominica in what they would call Operation Red Dog. Local media labeled the botched attempt the "Bayou of Pigs", a play on words for the unsuccessful 1961 "Bay of Pigs Invasion" of Cuba.

Black later explained the invasion as an attempt to set up an anti-communist regime, saying, "What we were doing was in the best interests of the United States and its security in the hemisphere, and we feel betrayed by our own government." The invasion was intended to restore former prime minister Patrick John to the mostly black Caribbean island. Prosecutors said the real purpose for the invasion would have been to set up tourism, gambling, offshore banking, and timber logging operations on the impoverished island.

In 1981, Black was sentenced to three years in prison for his role in the attempted invasion and his violation of the Neutrality Act. He was released on November 15, 1984. During his time in prison, Black took computer programming classes which led him to establish Stormfront on the Internet years later.

He ran for office in Alabama, this time as a Populist Party U.S. Senate candidate.

Stormfront
In 1995, Black founded Stormfront, which was the Internet's first significant website espousing racial hate. It remains among the most popular online resources for those drawn to racist ideologies. The site has featured the writings of William Luther Pierce and David Duke as well as works by the Holocaust denying Institute for Historical Review and the Culture of Critique series. At first, along with these articles, Stormfront housed a library of white pride, neo-Nazi, and white power skinhead graphics for downloading, and a number of links to other white nationalist websites.

In a 1998 interview for the alternative weekly newspaper Miami New Times, Black said: "We want to take America back. We know a multicultural Yugoslav nation can't hold up for too long. Whites won't have any choice but to take military action. It's our children whose interests we have to defend."

In 1999, Black created the website "martinlutherking.org", which is administered by Stormfront. This website was created to malign the character of Dr King. In January 2018, the site remained online and surpassed sites containing reliable content in Google search results. Today, the website is not accessible.

In December 2007, Black gained attention for donating money to Ron Paul's 2008 presidential run.

In 2008, Black said that the establishment of white pride as a special interest group within the Republican Party is crucial. Asked by an interviewer for Italian newspaper la Repubblica if Stormfront was not just the new Ku Klux Klan, Black responded affirmatively, though he noted that he would never say so to an American journalist.

On May 5, 2009, it was announced that Black was one of 22 on a British Home Office list of individuals banned from entering the United Kingdom for "promoting serious criminal activity and fostering hatred that might lead to inter-community violence".

The Stormfront forum acts as one of the largest online gatherings of racism and Holocaust deniers in the world, with threads on this theme gaining hundreds of thousands of views. A number of radio shows published by Black's web site have featured Holocaust denial.

Family
In 2008, various media outlets reported that Black's wife, Chloe, worked as an executive assistant for sugar baron José Fanjul who runs the Florida Crystals company and owns a real estate business in Latin American countries. In particular, her job duties included acting as the spokesperson for a charter school "to lift underprivileged black and Hispanic children out of poverty." The story resulted in Black being criticized by some other white nationalists.

In August 2008, Black's 19-year-old child Derek Black was elected to one of 111 seats on the Palm Beach County, Florida Republican committee, with 167 of 287 votes. The committee however, refused to seat Black, citing a loyalty oath they failed to sign before registering their candidacy. The oath states candidates must refrain from activities "likely to injure the name of the Republican Party." They hosted the Derek Black Show weekdays on a local West Palm Beach, Florida AM radio station, WPBR, to which Don Black paid $600 a week to broadcast content on. The radio show ended in January 2013, with Derek Black appearing on few episodes over the last year.

By summer 2013, Derek Black had called into question their racist ideologies, and they began to renounce white supremacism and issued an apology to those harmed by their previous actions and beliefs. Their renunciation reportedly shocked their father and like-minded people. By 2016, Derek Black had fully renounced their white nationalist views and was actively speaking out against such views in the press. Washington Post staff writer Eli Saslow detailed the ideological transformation of Derek which began with the rejection of their family, moving to Michigan and assuming a new name and eventually becoming a Ph.D. student at the University of Chicago, studying Medieval Islam.

Geography
Enköping is situated near Lake Mälaren, about 78 km west of Stockholm. A comparably large number of Swedish cities are located in the vicinity of Enköping. The municipal slogan is therefore "Sweden's Closest City". This expression was created in 1965 when it was discovered by a local business that within a radius of 120 kilometers, one finds 38 Swedish cities and a third of Sweden's population.

History
Near Enköping, there is some of the best preserved rock art from the Bronze Age present in central Sweden. The city of Enköping itself dates its history back to the 13th century but the city itself did not emerge until about 1250. Enköping was then as now situated by the rich farmlands close to lake Mälaren, leading to a wealthy rural population. The city has also always been a major crossroads for commerce, and excellent communications signify the city even today: The Mälar Railline (Mälarbanan) and the E18 highway provide ample means of travelling to the nearby major cities of Stockholm and Västerås. The city has several manufacturing industries, a hospital and the Swedish Armed Forces command and control an army electronic warfare centre Ledningsregementet (LedR).

Östhammar

Östhammar is a locality and the seat of Östhammar Municipality, Uppsala County, Sweden with 4,534 inhabitants in 2010. Today Östhammar Municipality is a part of Uppsala County, but the area has historically been a part of Stockholm County.

History
Östhammar's city status was granted by king Albert in 1368. During this period a castle called Östhammarshus was built, but already in 1434 the castle was burnt down by its Danish vogt, who fled to Denmark over the sea when faced with the Engelbrekt rebellion. By the late 15th century the post-glacial rebound had made it hard to reach Östhammar by boat and its city status was transferred to Öregrund. Östhammar regained its city status in 1538, and moved closer to the sea.

In 1651 Östhammar got a town hall, and in 1795 Östhammar was heavily damaged by fire. Between the early 17th century and the middle of the 19th century the fishing of herring played a very important role in Östhammar's economy.

Environmentally friendly

Environment friendly processes, or environmental-friendly processes (also referred to as eco-friendly, nature-friendly, and green), are sustainability and marketing terms referring to goods and services, laws, guidelines and policies that claim reduced, minimal, or no harm upon ecosystems or the environment.

Companies use these ambiguous terms to promote goods and services, sometimes with additional, more specific certifications, such as ecolabels. Their overuse can be referred to as greenwashing. To ensure the successful meeting of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) companies are advised to employ environmental friendly processes in their production. Specifically, Sustainable Development Goal 12 measures 11 targets and 13 indicators "to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns".

The International Organization for Standardization has developed ISO 14020 and ISO 14024 to establish principles and procedures for environmental labels and declarations that certifiers and eco-labellers should follow. In particular, these standards relate to the avoidance of financial conflicts of interest, the use of sound scientific methods and accepted test procedures, and openness and transparency in the setting of standards.

Europe
Products located in members of the European Union can use the EU Ecolabel pending the EU's approval. EMAS is another EU label that signifies whether an organization management is green as opposed to the product. Germany also uses the Blue Angel, based on Germany's standard.

In Europe, there are many different ways that companies are using environmentally friendly processes, eco-friendly labels, and overall changing guidelines to ensure that there is less harm being done to the environment and ecosystems while their products are being made. In Europe, for example, many companies are already using EMAS labels to show that their products are friendly.

Companies
Many companies in Europe make putting eco-labels on their products a top-priority since it can result to an increase in sales when there are eco-labels on these products. In Europe specifically, a study was conducted that shows a connection between eco-labels and the purchasing of fish: "Our results show a significant connection between the desire for eco-labeling and seafood features, especially the freshness of the fish, the geographical origin of the fish and the wild vs farmed origin of the fish". This article shows that eco-labels are not only reflecting a positive impact on the environment when it comes to creating and preserving products, but also increase sales. However, not all European countries agree on whether certain products, especially fish, should have eco-labels. In the same article, it is remarked: "Surprisingly, the country effect on the probability of accepting a fish eco-label is tricky to interpret. The countries with the highest level of eco-labeling acceptability are Belgium and France". According to the same analysis and statistics, France and Belgium are most likely of accepting these eco-labels.

North America
In the United States, environmental marketing claims require caution. Ambiguous titles such as environmentally friendly can be confusing without a specific definition; some regulators are providing guidance. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has deemed some ecolabels misleading in determining whether a product is truly "green".

In Canada, one label is that of the Environmental Choice Program. Created in 1988, only products approved by the program are allowed to display the label.

Overall, Mexico was one of the first countries in the world to pass a specific law on climate change. The law set an obligatory target of reducing national greenhouse-gas emissions by 30% by 2020. The country also has a National Climate Change Strategy, which is intended to guide policymaking over the next 40 years.

Oceania
The Energy Rating Label is a Type III label that provides information on "energy service per unit of energy consumption". It was first created in 1986, but negotiations led to a redesign in 2000.

Oceania generates the second most e-waste, 16.1 kg, while having the third lowest recycling rate of 8.8%. Out of Oceania, only Australia has a policy in policy to manage e-waste, that being the Policy Stewardship Act published in 2011 that aimed to manage the impact of products, mainly those in reference to the disposal of products and their waste. Under the Act the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme (NTCRS) was created, which forced manufactures and importers of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) importing 5000 or more products or 15000 or more peripherals be liable and required to pay the NTCRS for retrieving and recycling materials from electronic products.

New Zealand does not have any law that directly manages their e-waste, instead they have voluntary product stewardship schemes such as supplier trade back and trade-in schemes and voluntary recycling drop-off points. Though this has helped it costs the provider money with labor taking up 90% of the cost of recycling. In addition, e-waste is currently not considered a priority product, which would encourage the enforcement of product stewardship. In Pacific Island Regions (PIR), e-waste management is a hard task since they lack the adequate amount of land to properly dispose of it even though they produce one of the lowest amounts of e-waste in the world due to their income and population. Due to this there are large stockpiles of waste unable to be recycled safely.

Currently, The Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP), an organization in charge of managing the natural resources and environment of the Pacific region, is in charge of region coordination and managing the e-waste of the Oceania region. SPREP uses Cleaner Pacific 2025 as a framework to guide the various governments in the region. They also work with PacWaste (Pacific Hazardous Waste) to identify and resolve the different issues with waste management of the islands, which largely stem from the lack of government enforcement and knowledge on the matter. They have currently proposed a mandatory product stewardship policy be put in place along with an advance recycling fee which would incentivize local and industrial recycling. They are also in the mindset that the islands should collaborate and share resources and experience to assist in the endeavor.

With the help from the NTCRS, though the situation has improved they have been vocal about the responsibilities of stakeholders in the situation and how they need to be more clearly defined. In addition to there being a differences in state and federal regulations, with only Southern Australia, Australian Capital Territory, and Victoria having banned e-waste landfill, it would be possible to make this apply the rest of the region if a federal decision was made. They have also advocated for reasonable access to collection points for waste, with there being only one collection point within a 100 km radius in some cases. It has been shown that the reason some residents do not recycle is because of their distance from a collection point. In addition, there have been few campaigns to recycle, with the company, Mobile Muster, a voluntary collection program managed by the Australian Mobile Telecommunication Association, aimed to collect phones before they went to a landfill and has been doing so since 1999. Upon further study, it was found that only 46% of the public was award of the program, which later increased to 74% in 2018, but this was after an investment of $45 million from the Australian Mobile Telecommunication Association.

Asia
"Economic growth in Asia has increased in the past three decades and has heightened energy demand, resulting in rising greenhouse gas emissions and severe air pollution. To tackle these issues, fuel switching and the deployment of renewables are essential." However, as countries continue to advance, it leads to more pollution as a result of increased energy consumption. In recent years, the biggest concern for Asia is its air pollution issues. Major Chinese cities such as Beijing have received the worst air quality rankings (Li et al., 2017). Seoul, the capital of South Korea, also suffers from air pollution (Kim et al., 2017). Currently, Indian cities such as Mumbai and Delhi are overtaking Chinese cities in the ranking of worst air quality. In 2019, 21 of the world's 30 cities with the worst air quality were in India."

The environmentally friendly trends are marketed with a different color association, using the color blue for clean air and clean water, as opposed to green in western cultures. Japanese- and Korean-built hybrid vehicles use the color blue instead of green all throughout the vehicle, and use the word "blue" indiscriminately.

China
According to Shen, Li, Wang, and Liao, the emission trading system that China had used for its environmentally friendly journey was implemented in certain districts and was successful in comparison to those which were used in test districts that were approved by the government. This shows how China tried to effectively introduce new innovative systems to impact the environment. China implemented multiple ways to combat environmental problems even if they didn't succeed at first. It led to them implementing a more successful process which benefited the environment. Although China needs to implement policies like, "The “fee-to-tax” process should be accelerated, however, and the design and implementation of the environmental tax system should be improved. This would form a positive incentive mechanism in which a low level of pollution correlates with a low level of tax." By implementing policies like these companies have a higher incentive to not over pollute the environment and instead focus on creating an eco-friendlier environment for their workplaces. In doing so, it will lead to less pollution being emitted while there also being a cleaner environment. Companies would prefer to have lower taxes to lessen the costs they have to deal with, so it encourages them to avoid polluting the environment as much as possible.

International
Energy Star is a program with a primary goal of increasing energy efficiency and indirectly decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. Energy Star has different sections for different nations or areas, including the United States, the European Union and Australia. The program, which was founded in the United States, also exists in Canada, Japan, New Zealand, and Taiwan. Additionally, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 17 has a target to promote the development, transfer, dissemination, and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies to developing countries as part of the 2030 Agenda.

Talk:Beatlemania

Title
This article deserves a better title: "Beatles Tribute Bands", or something in that vein. "Beatlemania (groups)" is too vague - it could refer to groups which play music in the style of the Beatles, or were contemporaries of the Beatles (see Merseybeat). 217.34.39.123 08:59, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Move to Beatlemania
This page should be moved to Beatlemania, which is now just a redirect to The Beatles. It's basically unsearchable now. The same article should discuss briefly the beatlemania phenomenon in a little more depth. -R. fiend 3 July 2005 05:02 (UTC)

Beatlemania - the psychology of...
There is a possibility of a learned piece here regarding the phemomenea of Beatlemania as manifested by the (usually) teenage female fans. The hysteria, including fainting and involunatary urine release (is that "learned" enough?), was a highly uncommon event before The Beatles. I think Frank Sinatra had some similar incidents in the early Bobby Soxer days, but they were less frenetic (or at least the reporting of same was not as lurid). Interestingly such behaviour was not reported at Elvis Presley concerts. The only real precessors I can think of are the "Religious orgys" in late medieval times, where acolytes - again normally females - would work themselves into a (non sexual!) ecstatic state.

I feel this should fall under The Beatles umbrella for two reasons; firstly, The Beatles were the first recorded focal point by which this behaviour became apparent, and created the term which has (as mentioned in the article) been subsequently adopted for other groups/individuals and, secondly, "Beatlemania" had an influence on the Beatles themselves. I would argue that much of the early interest by the media regarding the Beatles focused as much on the fans response - the reporting of incidences of "Beatlemania" - as for the music and its popularity. The media exposure that followed created the environment by which any and all aspects of The Beatles were deemed newsworthy, thus creating a self fuelling publicity device building the fame of The Beatles. As commented on in other articles, this behaviour also encouraged The Beatles to give up touring and live performances as they became aware that the audience was not listening to the music and were indifferent to the quality of the playing. As they were then able to devote their creative energies in using the studio environment they were then able to make the advances they did.

As a generally (Western) cultural aspect, "Beatlemania" can be tied into womens financial/economic emancipation/liberation, the advent of "The Pill", and general changes of perception regarding women that was occuring at the time. As I said, this would possibly be a project for someone with a psychology or behavioural background who would know the appropriate scientific sources, and be able to deliver a coherent piece. In any event, there would be enough references to sex and teenage girls to draw the interest of some casual Wiki browser - it would have worked with me!LessHeard vanU 08:49, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

 * It's WP:OR and so not appropriate here. But agree it's a fascinating subject. I attended A Hard Day's Night (film) and Help! (film) in their first Sydney seasons, and didn't hear a word of any of the 22 songs they included because of the non-stop screams from girls of about my age at the time. It was really weird. Andrewa (talk) 09:26, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

 * (An idle thought: Is 4 years and 9 months between a comment and the first response, a Wikipedia Talk Page record? Probably not, but it's still pretty impressive) - DavidWBrooks (talk) 11:55, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Just to give this thread oxygen into a second decade ... There is some discussion on this type of issue in a few reliable sources I've come across, and it would make the article far more interesting than it currently is. (This is partly was I was referring to in a recent comment.) It's regrettable that the culling that resulted from Beatlemania in the UK and (I think) a US equivalent article being merged into this one has meant references to the Beatlemania fan phenomenon standing as the first of its kind – eg as a precursor to Rollermania, T-Rextasy in the 1970s – have disappeared. I've seen a source or two discuss that aspect, and also how Beatlemania was a liberating force for young women, one sociologist citing it as an inspiration for Girl Power.
 * There's no end of missing, pertinent information about the phenomenon, but the article just traces the Beatles' popularity chronologically, first in the UK and then with way too much about the US tours. The article doesn't touch on the growth of the phenomenon as the Beatles played in more diverse countries, and how its emergence was a sign of social change in some of those countries. The act of screaming and generally acting manic was a communal female activity at first, but by 1966 it represented the wider youth movement. As George Harrison said: the Beatles hitting town, especially during summertime in the US, became the catalyst (I think he called it "an excuse") for young people to go wild and express themselves; part of it was still worship of their pop idols, but another part was a form of sexual, social and political rebellion against their parents' generation. There's also the reaction of legal authorities and moral guardians – they all reacted in some way, and the younger generation's mania invited no end of debate at national government level ... JG66 (talk) 12:57, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
 * This should not be solely attributed to The Beatles. Frank Sinatra was recipient of this fanfare as was Elvis Presley.  By the time, the Beatles emerged, mass hysteria was already applied by the aforementioned.  However, with The Beatles, it took on a heightened strata because "The Baby Boomers" reached 18 years if age (1946 - 1964) and so, there were sufficient pre-menstruating and mensurating females in America. The Beatles were recipients of such hysteria "En Masse". Spenser - The Unknown (talk) 18:23, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Little titbit
Could someone incorperate the fact that girls at beatles concerts would regualrly piss themselves and the people who owned the venues would have to clean it off of the seats. Not only is it very true, it is also very, very funny.--Crestville 15:59, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I know that "Shout! The Story of the Beatles" refers to the occurrence - I suppose there are other references in other publications, too. It isn't an unusual event at "boy band" concerts of today and the recent past, but it was first remarked upon in relation to The Beatles. I still believe that it would need to be a learned article to counter any accusation of being salacious.LessHeard vanU 21:01, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I didn't understand those last few words, but that was a "no" wasn't it?--Crestville 10:26, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Er, no. It was "yes, but keep it in context". ps. Salacious is a great word, even the sound of it is a bit pervy! LessHeard vanU 12:23, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Ha, yeah. But what does it all mean, Basil? I think given screaming girls were an essential element to Beatlemania, it shouldn't be too hard.--Crestville 12:28, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

From the Wikipedia page for the Who Quadrophenia 5.15 song:

"According to Townshend, the opening stanza ("Eau-de-cologning") was a specific reference to a 1963 concert in Blackpool by the Beatles, infamous for the number of teenaged girls in the audience who, so rapt in sexual exhilaration, urinated themselves."

The ushers "sniffing" the urine would spay something to cover up the smell.

Stub?
Should this article be a stub? Just from reading it once and admittantly not knowing alot about The Beatles myself, I can casually see here that there is not very much information on the phenominon. Personally I would like some information regarding: You know... stuff like that. I think this article could be much more interesting and as it stands today, should it be a stub article, until more information can be added? Gohst 01:02, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * how it started (what led to Ed Sullivan and after?)
 * what happened to The Beatles personally (as mentioned above, they were scared and 'retrated')
 * more information on mobs, eg. what was the biggest number of people to swarm The Beatles? What were the early incidences of them being chased? What happened when/if they got caught by the fans? and info on the more famous incidents of mob activities.
 * What the deal was with the constant squealing at concerts? (There is a term for this, I beleive, but I only read it once and don't know if its real)

Other / similar examples
Twice now I've added Crouchamania as a similar example of the phenomenon. Twice it's been removed in a quite high-handed and frankly patronising way with comments of "nowhere near" and "idiocy". I amended the entry the second time to make it clearer to anyone who may be quite blinkered why it should be there, yet it was still removed. If Wikipedia is to remove the perception that huge sections are written by members of a "clique" who will not allow others to have an opinion on what is and isn't valid then I think something of a better explanation of this removal would be helpful. I've not put the entry back yet, as I am giving you the opportunity to explain. There's an example of some band most of the world will have never heard of, why is that there? If Beatlemania is (as seems from this discussion page) basically a phenomenon where teenage girls piss themselves at the sight of members of a boy band then it needs to be explained more clearly in the article itself. Read the article itself and explain why Crouchamania isn't a valid example. --Realred 07:30, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

 * It is not a recognised phenomimnon (Crouch's time may have already been and gone) and even if it is, what's it got to do with Beatlemania? If you can establish that Crouchmania is recognised (and not ironically) maybe look to creating an independant article which you can link to this one in the "See Also" section. However, it does not belong in the Beatlemania article. A person who types "Beatlemania" into the search engine will most likely have no desire to know about Peter Crouch. Frankly the first time I saw it, I assumed it was a joke, as while I know Crouch's staus (prior to the last game) was growing, it has come nowhere near to the mania or Beatlemania.

 * If you honestly believe that wikipedia is a "clique" I would advise you to think again. I argue with just about every other user I come into contact with, and yet even I am not prevented from editing. Whilst I appreciate your frustration, if you continue with wikipedia (which I sincerely hope you do, I assure you in a few months you will look back and think "What a silly thing I did". The same thing happened to me, but I kicked and screamed for ages and, a few months down the line, felt quite silly.

 * BTW, you seem to deride the current state of the Beatlemania artice. If you feel you canb improve it (with information relevant to The Beatles) please please please please do.--Crestville 09:20, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

 * What Crestville said; and frankly, I don't think that your proposing of Peter Crouch is entirely unbiaised given your username. The only footballer I can think of to approach the level of "mania" is George Best (in the UK). It should be remembered that Wiki is for all with access to the internet, and that some readers don't even realise there is a game called football (FIFA type). The Beatles, however, are a much more world wide phemomena, and "other examples" should be in that category (I had trouble with the Latin American boyband until I read the article and all the links).   Until there is a case for including Crouch (and Wayne Rooney, who is a stronger candidate, and any other popular athlete/artist) then such examples will be removed.LessHeard vanU 21:51, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Split this article?
It seems to me that only some of the crud in the last section should even be here. Certainly a summary of record sales as a whole should be mentioned but not in so much depth. Should some of it be carted off to The Beatles discography, or just deleted? (this comment was added by User:207.62.186.233 20:15 11 July 2006)

Beatlemania as an era
Isn't "The Beatlemania era" these days often seen, in an historical context, as a period in the artistic development of the band? Perhaps the article should talk about the albums that they recorded in that period, the musical style that was prevelant etc Spebudmak 21:06, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * "Beatlemania", as a phenomena, was something that was outside of the control of the band, and even impacted upon the group. Whilst enjoying the benefits of the adulation the group were also frustrated that their live concerts and appearances were not being appreciated for the content. This led them to stop gigging and concentrate on studio recording. Thus it is the outside influence on the band, rather than the other way round, that helped promote their artistic development. Also, since it was so prevelent, the band could spend time not playing or releasing records knowing that there would be an audience waiting to buy when they did. Lastly, the cultural impact of Beatlemania transcended the group and even artists in different fields could find that they engendered more attention just by adopting Beatlesque references. While the band was the fulcrum and origin of Beatlemania they were not the directors or even the sole benificiaries of it. There was a lot more to it than just screaming girls fainting at airports.

Flag down a source
While the term is credited to a promoter, I've heard the story it was by a Canadian journalist (whose name I can't recall), which led to an album (the white album?) being released (uniquely) here as Beatlemania. True? TREKphiler  hit me ♠  14:10, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Portmanteau
Should Beatlemania  really be called a portmanteau when it simply can be analysed as a compound? It's been a while since I read word formation theory but the way I see it the word Beatlemania clearly consists of two separate morphemes and not just one like motel. -- 83.179.25.167 (talk) 23:16, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

I don't understand why we need 3 articles about the band's popularity 1963-66. Beatlemania in the United Kingdom and The Beatles in the United States contain basically all the info that is at Beatlemania. The first two are even formatted like "Part 1" and "Part 2" - the coverage on "UK" ends at 1963 whereas "US" picks up immediately afterward.

Very large article
Hey, User:JG66, how much longer are you going to keep adding to this article, which is turning into an encyclopedia by itself! (OK, that's a bit of an exaggeration) You've increased it by more than 25% since you started a couple weeks ago; I'm not sure I've ever seen such an extended barrage of consecutive (non-trivial) edits to a single article by a single editor in all my wiki-years. It's tough to keep up! One of your summaries mentions plans to split some off into other articles - what's that about? - DavidWBrooks (talk) 17:32, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Why, what's the problem? JG66 (talk) 17:46, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

 * No problem, just wondering. When an article is changed a whole lot by one person over days and weeks, it risks becoming a pet project and the editor in question can become very possessive of it - I've encountered that before. That's not a problem here, but you've made so many nonstop changes that nobody else wants to edit an article that might get changed one or two or 10 ways by the next time we sign in. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 18:23, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

Missing footnote sources
