Extractions: The Chaser The deal follows a recent poll which found that the majority of Australians don't think Aborigines should be allowed in Australia. Mr Howard however denied that he was playing politics when he ordered a military evacuation of the entire indigenous population. The Prime Minister said his government was committed to doing everything it could to stop Aborigines from stepping foot on Australian soil, even where the land is "technically" theirs. He said he thought the Nauru deal had struck the right balance between meeting the humanitarian needs of the Aborigines and the populist, electoral needs of the government. Opposition Leader Kim Beazley has supported the deal, to ensure the Labor Party doesn't itself disenchant the bigoted electorate in the lead-up to the federal poll. Both parties believe that Nauru, an island all but stripped bare by phosphate mining, will be a suitable home for our Aborigines, who are used to mines destroying their local environs.

McDaniel and John M. Gowdy Average review score: This book is crap If you want to learn anything about Nauru, don't bother. If you have a significant emotional investment in the idea that the earth is doomed and western culture is raping the planet, then this is the book for you. Just be sure to read it by candlelight so you aren't guilty of intellectual dishonesty (no animal fat or paraffin candles allowed, either). Make no mistakes; turning a tropical island into a lunar wasteland is a terrible thing, and the people who have to live there probably wish things were different. But this is so blindingly obvious that a whole book on the subject would be (and is) ridiculous. A look at "Paradise for Sale" This book wasn't too bad. It has a good point, but the author does a lot of extrapolating and does not give a really good solution to the problem of resource overuse. Also, the author insults much of modern industrial society, but when he descibes his trip to Nauru, he mentions that he wants ice cream at one point and describes the food served there (beef, chicken, jello, and more) as good. Notice that these good foods and the availability of them are products of Western industrial society. Perhaps he is just another professor type who thinks he is above the common man because of his Ph.D and that people will not see the hypocrisy in his ideas and actions.

This Week in History Nauru in the news Nauru is an island republic in the South Pacific Ocean, formerly known as Pleasant Island . It is the world's smallest independent republic both in terms of population and land area. Much of its past prosperity derived from phosphate due to the large amount of phosphate deposits on the island, believed by one school of thought to be of guano origin but by another to be of marine origin. The phosphate is used as a fertilizer around the world and the majority of it has been exported to Australia. With the exhaustion of the phosphate supplies, Nauru faces an uncertain future. Nauru currently houses a refugee detention center, under the control of Australia. Republik Naoero

Extractions: A Directory of Wetlands in Oceania NAURU Area: Published figures range from 20.7 to 21.3 sq.km. Population: The climate is tropical with daily temperatures ranging between 24.4°C and 33.9°C, and average humidity between 70 and 80%. The average annual temperature is 27°C, with a seasonal variation of 1°C. Annual rainfall averages about 2,000 mm, much of it occurring during the monsoon season from November to February. However, the annual rainfall is subject to wide fluctuations, ranging from as little as 104 mm to over 4,572 mm. Droughts are not uncommon, and several lasting more than 12 months have occurred this century. Streams are non-existent. The tidal range is about 2.0 m. Nauru was under German administration from the 1880s until 1914, and then under Australian administration (on behalf of Australia, New Zealand and the U.K.) until the 1960s. In 1966, the Nauruans were given self government, and in January 1968, full independence was achieved. Indigenous Nauruans, of mixed Polynesian, Micronesian and Melanesian descent, make up about 60% of the population, the rest being a mixture of Australians, New Zealanders, Chinese and other Pacific Islanders. There is no capital city as such, although Aiwo and Yaren Districts contain the bulk of the island's governmental and commercial structures. The inhabitants live in small settlements scattered throughout the island, but mostly in the coastal belt. Nauru's economy is based mainly on the phosphate mining industry. Except for interruptions during World War I and World War II, the phosphate deposits have been mined continuously since 1906. Mining activities were taken over by the Nauru Phosphate Corporation in 1970, and the industry now produces in excess of two million metric tonnes per year. However, it is estimated that the phosphate deposits will be exhausted around the year 2000. The phosphate revenues bring the island one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. Since independence, over 60% of the revenue from phosphate exports has been invested in long-term trust funds, designed to provide the inhabitants with a future income when the phosphate deposits are exhausted. Agriculture is very limited, with a few fruit trees, coconuts

Extractions: Introduction Situated in the Pacific, Nauru is one of the smallest countries and smallest republic in the world. Mining and other industries has made this country quite rich, but it has also led to unhindered exploitation of natural resources, culture, and social patterns. Though, tourism is not exactly on the top of activities here, there are some of the finest beaches and incomparable diving and sport fishing activities that makes up for everything else. What to do There is not much sightseeing to do in this small country. Most of the tourists coming here indulge themselves in diving, sports fishing, and other water sports activities. The country has some of the finest reefs in the world and underwater world is amazing. Entire island can be walked around in a day and if you still have some time to spent then go for playing golf and tennis. Weather and Best Season to Visit The climate of Nauru is tropical which is tempered by the sea breezes. Most of the rain takes place from November to February which is the time for westerly monsoon season. There is not much temperature differentiation during different seasons and temperature remains between 23ºC to 32ºC. Except the rainy season, you can go to Nauru anytime of the year.

http://www.tribalsite.com/articles/nauru.htm

Extractions: Nauru - A Modern-Day Pacific Adventure By John Fowler Not only was I aware of the search and its difficulties, but I also thought that I had a solution that would make everyone happy. In a nutshell, my thoughts were to move the population of Nauru to the Marquesas in French Polynesia, and in the process create a new Pacific island state embracing the two peoples. Certainly the idea had its merits, the Marquesans had more land than they knew what to do with but no money to develop it or support a government. In turn, the Nauruans had money but not the land; in theory it appeared to be a good match. At this stage I had another project in mind as well, which was the creation by Nauru of a musuem featuring the traditional arts and culture of the Pacific. Actually, part of my fascination with the Pacific revolved around its incredibly rich traditional culture which in turn had led me to a career as a collector/dealer of Oceanic art. Not only did I feel such a museum was a very worthwhile project for Nauru, I also felt that this proposal would serve to establish at least some measure of confidence before I approached anyone with my somewhat unorthodox idea for a new Nauruan homeland. Obviously the first step was to make the aquaintance (at least by telephone) of H.E. Hammer DeRoburt, at that time Nauru's most excellent President and father of its independence.
