There is one such peculiar rule in Lanzaron village of Grenada State, Spain, where people living are banned. There are 4000 people living in this village. This unique rule was made by former Mayor Jose Rubio 26 years ago.
In 1999, Rubio made an announcement, urging Lanzaron citizens to ‘take great care of their health so that they do not die until the land is found for those who died in the village.
No place in the cemetery, so die forbidden According to media reports, there was pressure on the then mayor to rapidly solve the congestion problem in the local cemetery. This problem had been harassing the city for many years. This strange law was enacted as his solution.
Similar rules in Norway Rubio, who makes such rules, is not the only mayor. Those living in Longareben, Norway are forbidden to die- and this rule has been since 1950. In the 20th century, researchers found that the climate did not cause corpses in this area, which feared the spread of diseases.
Scientists also tested the bodies buried for the 1917 influenza virus, which found a living sample of the virus. After this, the cemetery was closed due to the possibility of spreading the disease.
To deal with the increasing problem of plastic waste, the Kerala government has initiated a unique initiative. Now, customers will get a refund (return) of ₹ 20 for returning empty bottles of liquor sold at Kerala State Beverages Corporation (BEVCO) outlets.
The Excise Department said that the scheme will start as a pilot project in September. Under this, additional ₹ 20 will be taken on both plastic and glass bottles, which will be found back when the bottle is returned.
‘₹ 20 additional fee, responsible investment’ Excise Duty Minister M.B. Rajesh said that this ₹ 20 should not be considered as an additional fee, but should be considered an investment. A QR code will be placed on every bottle to facilitate the tracking and refund of bottles.
70 million liquor bottles are sold annually in Kerala, out of which 80% are of plastic. The minister said, “This will help reduce the number of bottles thrown on the roads.” This project has been launched in partnership with ‘Clean Kerala Company’. It will begin in Thiruvananthapuram and Kannur. Earlier this scheme was launched in Tamil Nadu, which has been successfully implemented even today.
In Okinawa, Japan, there is a beach named Hoshijuna-No-Hama where the sand looks like stars. Actually, these ‘stars’ are not any sand grains, but the calcium carbonate shells of billions of small marine organisms named Forminiferus. These creatures come to the edge with the waves of the sea after dying and make stars -like designs.
Scientists call it a skeleton of sea creatures, while some locals believe in an old story that these stars are children of southern cross and northern star, who were killed by a huge snake. However, due to the increasing number of tourists, the risk of wires -like sand has also increased, so it has now been banned from taking it home.
In Spain, a 2000 -year -old Roman amulet has found a fossil (ie a stone -built remains) inside a Roman amulet, which had ended from the earth 250 million years ago. The name of this mysterious sea creature is Trichobite. This is the first proof of the world that states that Roman people used this extinct marine organism in amulets.
This fossil was found at an old Roman hideout in the northwest Spain. Researchers believe that Roman people considered magical or protecting forces in these special stones, so they brought them from so far.
The fossil was found with a bronze coin, on which the first Roman Emperor was made the face of Augustus. Let us know that Emperor Augustus was also fond of collecting fossils. This discovery can open many secrets of history and science.
There is a unique airport in New Zealand where aircraft and trains in turn use the same runway. It is the only active airport in the world where the railway line passes directly through the main runway.

Gisborne Airport manages over 60 domestic flights per week and handles more than 1.5 lakh passengers annually. This rare scene of a train and an airplane on the runway, this rare view of each other’s patience is often viral on social media.
