										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Þann 25. september er fánadagur heimsmarkmiða Sameinuðu þjóðanna haldinn hátíðlegur. Þá flagga hundruð fyrirtækja, stofnana, skóla og sveitarfélaga um allan heim fánum heimsmarkmiðanna til að minna á mikilvægi sjálfbærrar þróunar og sýna stuðning í verki.</p>
<p>Reykjanes UNESCO Global Geopark tekur virkan þátt í deginum og tengir hann sérstaklega við samstarfsverkefni með Suðurnesjavettvangi, sem hefur það markmið að gera alla skóla á Reykjanesi að UNESCO-skólum (ASPnet). Með því verða skólarnir hluti af alþjóðlegu neti sem vinnur að menntun fyrir sjálfbæra framtíð og tengir kennslu og skólastarf beint við heimsmarkmiðin.</p>
<p>En fánadagurinn markar jafnframt upphaf sjálfbærniviku í Reykjanes Geopark, sem stendur yfir dagana 25. september – 1. október og fær þannig mjög sýnilega byrjun, því flestir skólar og mörg fyrirtæki innan Reykjanes jarðvangs eiga slíkan fána og munu draga hann að húni þennan dag. Markmiðið er að virkja íbúa, fyrirtæki, skóla og sveitarfélög til að taka þátt í að móta sjálfbæra framtíð fyrir Reykjanes. Með fræðslu og samvinnu skapast vettvangur þar sem hugmyndir verða að aðgerðum – í anda heimsmarkmiðanna og í nánu samstarfi við skólana okkar, sem eru framtíðarsmiðir svæðisins.</p>
<p>Með því að sameina fánadag heimsmarkmiðanna og sjálfbærniviku viljum við undirstrika að heimsmarkmiðin eru ekki aðeins alþjóðleg markmið – þau eru leiðarljós í okkar daglega starfi og framtíðarsýn fyrir Reykjanes.</p>
<p>Við hvetjum alla til að taka þátt, fylgjast með og deila myndefni undir merkjum:<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alþjóðajarðfræðisambandið (IUGS) hefur í annað sinn gefið út lista yfir 100 merkilegar jarðminjar í heiminum. Þar á meðal eru tveir staðir á Íslandi, Reykjanes og Vatnajökull.</p>
<p>Alþjóðajarðfræðisambandið (IUGS) hefur í annað sinn gefið út lista yfir 100 merkilegar jarðminjar í heiminum. Þar á meðal eru tveir staðir á Íslandi, Reykjanes og Vatnajökull.</p>
<p>Listinn var formlega útgefinn á 37. alþjóðlegu ráðstefnu jarðfræðisambandins í Busan Kóreu, 27. ágúst síðast liðinn. Á bak við þessa samantekt og viðurkenningu jarðminja að hálfu IUGS, standa yfir 700 sérfræðingar frá 80 löndum og 16 alþjóðastofnunum.</p>
<p>Nánari upplýsingar: <a href="http://www.iugs-geoheritage.org/" target="_new" rel="noopener">www.iugs-geoheritage.org</a></p>
<p>IGC er einn aðal viðburður í heimi jarðvísinda og mikilvægur umræðuvettvangur IUGS. Á fjögurra ára fresti sameinar IGC samfélag jarðfræðinga frá öllum heimshornum. Aðalmarkmið þessa samvinnuverkefnis undir stjórn IUGS er að veita þeim svæðum, sem eru ómissandi fyrir jarðvísindin, viðurkenningu.</p>
<p>Nokkrar forsendur liggja á baki vali á þessum stöðum og svæðum:</p>
<ul>
<li>hafa mikilvægt vísindalegt gildi.</li>
<li>eru bestu dæmi heimsins um jarðfræðileg einkenni og ferli.</li>
<li>eru staðir þar sem einstakar uppgötvanir um jörðina og sögu hennar hafa verið gerðar.</li>
<li>eru svæði sem hafa með einhverjum hætti þróað jarðvísindin.</li>
<li>eru staðsett um allan heim og eru jarðfræðilega fjölbreytt.</li>
<li>Viðurkenning og sýnileiki topp 100 listans frá IUGS getur leitt til frekari virðingar á þessum stöðum og ýtt undir að þau séu notuð sem kennslu og varðveislu þeirra.</li>
</ul>
<p>Jarðminjasvæðin á þessum öðrum lista yfir 100 jarðarminjasvæði eru dreifð um 53 lönd og ná yfir níu fræðigreinar. Listann má finna í hlekk hér að neðan.</p>

<p><a href="https://iugs-geoheritage.org/geoheritage_sites/the-mid-atlantic-ridge-on-reykjanes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span lang="IS" xml:lang="IS">Reykjanes</span></a><span lang="IS" xml:lang="IS"> features on the IUGS list of geological monuments as an internationally important geological site due to its connection to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. There you can see the sliding of strata, faults and volcanic fissures. In addition to this, the volcanic history, rock formation and geothermal areas of ​​Reykjanes are very </span><span lang="IS" xml:lang="IS">interesting.</span></p>
<p>The goal of the International Geological Union (IUGS) with the publication of a list of geological monuments is to draw attention to the importance of geological monuments for education and knowledge, to publicize international recognition of their importance, but primarily to promote the preservation of significant geological sites.</p>
<p>This is the second time that IUGS has compiled a list of significant geological heritage sites and it is called &#8221; <a href="https://iugs-geoheritage.org/publications-dl/IUGS-SECOND-100-SITES-WEB-BOOK.pdf">The Second 100 IUGS Geological Heritage Sites</a> &#8220;. The first list was published at the union&#8217;s 60th anniversary celebration in 2022 under the title &#8221; <a href="https://iugs-geoheritage.org/publications-dl/IUGS-FIRST-100-SITES-WEB-BOOK.pdf">The First 100 IUGS Geological Heritage Sites&#8221;.</a> The archaeological sites are <a href="https://iugs-geoheritage.org/designations/">published electronically</a> and also in book form. It is planned that there will be three IUGS lists and the third will be published in 2026.</p>
<p>To be on the IUGS list of geological monuments, geological sites must have a high international scientific value, as well as, they are the world&#8217;s best examples of certain formation and shaping processes. These are places where significant geological discoveries have been made, for example about the history of the Earth, or places where research has contributed to development of geology as a scientific discipline. You can see a discussion of earth monuments on the <a href="https://iugs-geoheritage.org/">IUGS website</a></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Icelandic Tourist Board awarded Reykjanes Geopark the Environment Award for 2023 for the development at Brimketill, It is an interesting tourist spot in a short distance west of Grindavík. Where you can see the power of the North Atlantic Ocean when the surf hits the rocks. Waves and external stress have gradually shaped cups and cauldrons into the basaltic rocks. There you can see a Brimketil, which is a peculiar kettle in the sea level that is most reminiscent of a hot tub on a sunny day. In the past, there could be great danger when people went out on the rough lava, which is cracked and rough with rough edges and surfaces.</p>
<h3><strong>Emphasis on increased safety and improved access</strong></h3>
<p><strong> </strong>This is a project to improve safety and accessibility for tourists. It was considered necessary to define the accessibility at Brimketill as well as to prepare a viewing platform and paths that match the landscape. Reykjanes Geopark has received five grants from the Tourism Site Protection Fund for Brimketil. At the beginning, a detailed land-use plan was prepared for the area around Brimketil, where the emphasis was on improved and safer access. Subsequently, a viewing platform was prepared, a parking lot was demarcated, a footpath was formed along with signs with information about the area. Most recently, the viewing platform was expanded, as well as making it safer and improving accessibility.</p>
<p>The projects correspond well with the focus of the fund regarding safety and improved access to tourist destinations.</p>

<p>UNESCO, the United Nations Organization for Cultural Affairs, recognized Reykjanes as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2015. This does not mean that Reykjanes Geopark can wave the flag of being a UNESCO Global Geopark for the foreseeable future without working for it. Geoparks around the world go through an assessment every four years. There, the progress and work of the geopark are examined and what needs to be improved, etc. After the evaluation, there is a result that can go in three ways, the red, yellow, and green card. If a geopark receives the red card, it loses its UNESCO Global Geopark title, the yellow card gives the geopark only two years to respond quickly to proposals for improvement. The green card is the best possible outcome, then the geopark is given four years to work on proposals for improvement. Reykjanes Geopark received the green card in its first review in 2019 and again now in 2023 in its second review. It is safe to say that the good work that has been done in Reykjanes in recent years has produced these excellent results. The founders and the board of the geopark are therefore extremely proud of the project and plan to continue working to strengthen the foundations of Reykjanes Geopark</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Á fundi stýrihóps UNESCO hnattrænna jarðvanga sem haldinn var 7-8 desember var umsögn úttektaraðila frá því í sumar tekin fyrir og niðurstaða fundarins er að Reykjanes jarðvangur fengi græna spjaldið að nýju fyrir næstu 4 ár.</p>
<p>UNESCO, Menningarmálastofnun Sameinuðu þjóðanna viðurkenndi Reykjanes sem UNESCO Global Geopark árið 2015. Það er ekki þar með sagt að Reykjanes jarðvangur geti flaggað þeim fána að vera UNESCO Global Geopark um ókomna tíð án þess að vinna fyrir því. Jarðvangar um allan heim fara í gegnum úttekt á fjögurra ára fresti að jafnaði. Þar eru framfarir og störf jarðvangsins skoðuð og einnig hverju þarf að vinna betur að o.s.frv. Eftir úttektina liggur fyrir niðurstaða sem getur farið á þrjá vegu, rauða-, gula-, og græna kortið. Fái jarðvangur rauða kortið missir hann titilinn UNESCO Global Geopark, gula kortið gefur jarðvangnum aðeins tvö ár til að bregðast hratt við tillögum til umbóta. Græna kortið er svo besta mögulega útkoma þar sem jarðvangnum eru gefin fjögur ár til að vinna að tillögum til umbóta. Reykjanes jarðvangur fékk græna kortið í sinni fyrstu úttekt árið 2019 og aftur núna 2023 í sinni annari úttekt. Það er óhætt að segja að það góða starf sem hefur farið fram á Reykjanesi undanfarin ár hefur skilað þessum frábæra árangri. Stofnaðilar og stjórn Jarðvangsins á Reykjanesi eru því afar stoltir af verkefninu og ætla að vinna áfram að því að styrkja stoðir jarðvangsins.</p>
