A number of foliage plants are characterised by long, narrow, usually stiff leaves which are serrated and/or spiky.

In 2012, Saurabh Gupta was caught up in the corporate rat race of Mumbai, the beating heart of India’s finance and commerce sector. He was working hard, drinking harder and living for the weekend.

Saving the elephant
Saving the elephant
Sunday 11 August 2019, 10:00AM
When talking about wild animal welfare in Thailand, elephants are often the first animal that comes to mind. In Phuket, this year has seen officials investigate concerns about a number of baby elephants working across Phuket, one of which, three-year-old Jumbo, died despite an international campaign calling for him to be taken out of Phuket Zoo and into care for better protection. But is change in the air for these gentle giants? Here Dr Patrapol Maneeorn, wildlife veterinarian of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP), talks about the Thai people’s centuries-old bond with animals and how he is always hopefully optimistic about the future conservation and welfare of animals, national parks and wildlife in Thailand.

Politics is cyclic. History advises us that a stretch of stable, middle-ground government gives way to an era of discontent and unrest. From a status quo of sociopolitical com­promise and less dominant leadership comes the emergence of more extreme factions and outsiders from both the far left and right, creating a wider and more divided political landscape. It all makes for a bumpy ride.

Many of us will remember the moment we ‘woke up’ to plastic pollution. For millions of viewers of BBC documentary mini-series Blue Planet II, it was an al­batross unwittingly feeding plastic to its young. For oth­ers, it was the powerful viral image of a seahorse off the coast of Indonesia car­rying a cotton ear bud, its tail wrapped tightly around the plastic tube.
