presents a new initiative to promote the discovery of our beautiful island:
Spirit Stops™.
Many visitors and residents from both ends of Fuerteventura love to explore this beautiful island and sometimes have difficulty to fully enjoy the local offerings at the other end as they return to base the same day. Searching for appropriate accommodation to stay overnight is bothersome. Also finding the “hot spots” and “insider tips” in catering and pleasure can be time-consuming.

Spirit of Fuerteventura has been able to find people who are eager to co-operate on the promotion of local art through allowing some space for exhibition on their premises. Spirit would like to thank these people for their effort and wishes them success in their future endeavours.

The Spirit of Fuerteventura Company S.C.P., publisher of the quarterly magazine “Spirit of Fuerteventura” is happy to announce the co-operation with OKAPI to distribute “Doggy Bags” to allow the owners of dogs to take their responsibility and pick up the droppings from their beloved pet. The bags will be for sale at a symbolic price and will help to support the efforts of OKAPI. These bags will be distributed by OKAPI and will be available at the following distribution points:

We all know that light – the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum – is crucial and indispensable to life; it is generated by the sun and supplies our earth with plenty of energy. The rest of the electromagnetic spectrum reaches our planet in the form of radio waves, heat, UV, X- and gamma-rays. All living organisms receive, collect and transform these waves in one or the other form.

But what about emission of light by living organisms? And I do not mean the glow worms, -flies or other luminescent creatures like from the deep sea. I mean the emission of minute amounts of light by common cells like the ones that you have in your body or from the vegetables in your garden.

Is there anybody who knows how life on Earth started? Most probably no, but many pieces of the puzzle already fell into place and give us a good picture how life could have started.

Earth had been created at the time when our solar system was born, some 4.600 millions of years ago. Initially our planet was a ball of fire and molten mass but slowly she cooled down and a crust was formed. According to modern science, life started about 3.500 million years ago. It is clear that the Earth was very different at that time with no sign of life and no oxygen in the atmosphere.

In order to be able to generate the complex molecules to create life, some basic conditions had to be fulfilled like no presence of pure oxygen (due to its flammability no flames can sustain and no organism can breed below 15% oxygen content and will suffocate whereas everything will burn by auto-combustion above 25%) and no obstacles to absorb the radiations coming from space.
