NÃO SOLTEM FOGOS DE ARTIFÍCIO! - Marcell Moraes
Publicado em 28 de jun de 2016
Os fogos de artifício são os responsáveis por acidentes dos mais variados tipos, principalmente com os cães que tem a audição mais aguçada do que a nossa. Eles ficam apavorados, fogem, alguns têm náusea, convulsões... É ASSUSTADOR!
Nesse São João, vamos ter consciência do sofrimento que é causado à esses anjos.

Racionalidade – a vida sustentável é o grande desafio do século 21
Racionalidade – a vida sustentável é o grande
desafio do século 21
•
Precisamos de severidade, honestidade intelectual e mudanças em todos os
sentidos, já.
Da Wikipédia temos que sustentabilidade é:
Com
certeza se a Humanidade pode ainda dispor de uma folga em seus hábitos de vida,
eles se aproximam rapidamente de limites letais. O que fazer para reverter esse
comportamento suicida? O que imediatamente dará resultados surpreendentes?
•
Simplesmente não desperdiçando, podemos mudar significativamente o grau
de poluição imediatamente, onde?
•
Mobilidade urbana
•
Arquitetura
•
Manutenção
•
Serviços essenciais
•
Lazer
•
Inovações disciplinadas
•
Não submissão à mídia comercial
•
Otimizando processos produtivos e de consumo.
Infelizmente somos “humanos, demasiadamente humanos” [1] e o desenvolvimento
social, político, filosófico e psicológico:
•
Demora demais para amadurecer intimamente...
•
Somos eventualmente racionais.
•
Desperdiçamos tempo.
•
Nossa atenção é governada por glândulas e
circunstâncias.
•
Não percebemos nossa fragilidade.
•
A Natureza é severa, não espera.
•
Podemos destruir a Terra e sermos atingidos
por eventos catastróficos ou simples (doenças, por exemplo) que ela produz
•
Acima de tudo, o que devemos, podemos,
queiramos ou não, fazer?
Carecemos de novas propostas de
ensino.
A escola é o ambiente mais propício a
transformações rápidas e radicais, nelas poucos especialistas em cargos gerenciais
poderão produzir gerações modernas de mestres.
E a família? Gerações anteriores
trazem atavismos, tradições e culturas superadas. Assim sendo, partindo dessas
hipóteses a serem estudadas, devemos:
•
Aprender desde os
primeiros anos de vida a ter dúvidas [2] , “a certeza absoluta
é por si só suficiente para impedir qualquer progresso mental naqueles que a
possuem”.
•
O valor da
honestidade intelectual, com destaque para os livros e palestras de Michel
Foucault [3]
•
A importância de
estudar.
•
Sobreviver em
qualquer condição.
•
Saber que podemos
crescer intelectualmente.
•
Nunca devemos
desistir, aposentar da vida.
•
Nossos
descendentes dependem de nós, todos precisam de todos nós até o último instante
de vida.
Paralelamente
é fundamental olhar com cuidado os modismos, a mídia comercial, ONGs
simplórias, o imperialismo tecnológico, o consumismo.
Não
temos panaceias, nada é suficiente, tudo o que pudermos fazer, contudo, é
importante (para o bem e para o mal).
Carecemos
de pesquisas até para reverter o gigantismo do ser humano, um dos principais
responsáveis pela necessidade de mais energia, espaços, alimentos, soluções
para tudo o que seres humanos têm em sua constituição física, raramente útil ao
bem estar geral e à sobrevivência da Humanidade.
Novas
gerações têm a oportunidade de desenvolver pesquisas e projetos saudáveis,
principalmente agir e serem exemplarmente sustentáveis, vindo a favor da Natureza que nos acolhe.

Prezado Cascaes, boa tarde!
Como vai?
Entro em contato em função da publicação de uma Revista com os resultados do Simpósio que o senhor participou como palestrante, o Simpósio de Estudantes de Engenharia para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável, lembra? Inclusive, pelos comentários dos alunos a sua foi a melhor palestra. Por isso, agradeço novamente sua disponibilidade naquela ocasião.
Mas, o que gostaríamos agora é que o conteúdo da sua palestra ficasse registrado por meio de um resumo (cerca de meia página, no máximo uma página). A sua e as demais palestras irão compor as primeiras páginas da Revista e nas demais páginas serão publicados os trabalhos dos alunos.
Gostaria muito de poder contar com este resumo da sua palestra. O senhor aceitaria e poderia escrever um breve resumo e nos encaminhar para publicação?
Obrigada!
Att,

The Hole - A film on the Montreal Protocol, narrated by Sir David Attenb...
Publicado em 14 de out de 2016
Sir David Attenborough narrates the extraordinary history of the Montreal Protocol to raise awareness of the 28th Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol in Kigali, Rwanda, and efforts to control powerful global warming chemicals hydrofluorocarbons - HFCs - under the Protocol. Reducing HFCs under the Montreal Protocol can avoid 0.5°C of global warming by the end of the century, while continuing to protect the ozone layer.
Montreal Protocol - Video Learning - WizScience.com
Publicado em 24 de set de 2015
The "Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer" is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production of numerous substances that are responsible for ozone depletion. It was agreed on 16 September 1987, and entered into force on 1 January 1989, followed by a first meeting in Helsinki, May 1989. Since then, it has undergone eight revisions, in 1990 , 1991 , 1992 , 1993 , 1995 , 1997 , 1998 , 1999 and 2007 . As a result of the international agreement, the ozone hole in Antarctica is slowly recovering. Climate projections indicate that the ozone layer will return to 1980 levels between 2050 and 2070. Due to its widespread adoption and implementation it has been hailed as an example of exceptional international co-operation, with Kofi Annan quoted as saying that "perhaps the single most successful international agreement to date has been the Montreal Protocol". In comparison, effective burden sharing and solution proposals mitigating regional conflicts of interest have been among the success factors for the Ozone depletion challenge, where global regulation based on the Kyoto Protocol has failed to do so. In case of the ozone depletion challenge, there was global regulation already being installed before a scientific consensus was established. As well in comparison, lay people and public opinion were more convinced about possible imminent risks.
The two ozone treaties have been ratified by 197 parties, which includes 196 states and the European Union, making them the first universally ratified treaties in United Nations history.

Understanding the Montreal Protocol
Publicado em 11 de out de 2016
The Montreal Protocol was agreed in 1987 and implemented two years later. It's a landmark international agreement, designed to protect the earth's ozone layer. It's also the first environmental treaty to receive worldwide support. The Montreal Protocol is designed to legally enforce the phasing out of ozone-depleting chemicals that exist in household items, like fridges. TOUCH In 1974, scientists discovered that chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs, deplete the ozone layer that protects the planet from ultraviolet radiation. In 1985, a gaping hole was discovered above Antarctica. It prompted world leaders to take action. The protocol is now ratified by 197 countries and is believed to have averted the collapse of the ozone layer by the middle of the 21st century. The parties meet annually to adjust the protocol in response to new scientific information. So far, that's happened six times. Delegates say the objective is to protect human health and the environment from the harmful effects of a damaged ozone layer.

Antarctic Ozone Hole
Publicado em 19 de set de 2014
The Antarctic Ozone Hole is an annual springtime event above Earth's frozen, southernmost continent. Man-made CFCs, naturally occurring Polar Stratospheric Clouds, and the return of sunlight set off incredible destruction of the protective Ozone Layer. This video presents these complicated processes with simple to understand animations.

NASA | Big Ozone Holes Headed For Extinction By 2040
Publicado em 7 de mai de 2015
The next three decades will see an end of the era of big ozone holes. In a new study, scientists from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center say that the ozone hole will be consistently smaller than 8 million square miles by the year 2040.
Ozone-depleting chemicals in the atmosphere cause an ozone hole to form over Antarctica during the winter months in the Southern Hemisphere. Since the Montreal Protocol agreement in 1987, emissions have been regulated and chemical levels have been declining. However, the ozone hole has still remained bigger than 8 million square miles since the early 1990s, with exact sizes varying from year to year.
The size of the ozone hole varies due to both temperature and levels of ozone-depleting chemicals in the atmosphere. In order to get a more accurate picture of the future size of the ozone hole, scientists used NASA’s AURA satellite to determine how much the levels of these chemicals in the atmosphere varied each year. With this new knowledge, scientists can confidently say that the ozone hole will be consistently smaller than 8 million square miles by the year 2040. Scientists will continue to use satellites to monitor the recovery of the ozone hole and they hope to see its full recovery before the end of the century.

Cow Farts Blow Up A Barn!
Publicado em 29 de jan de 2014
Could cow farts blow up a barn? Apparently so! A static charge triggered an explosion of methane gas in a barn in Rasdorf, Germany earlier this week. How powerful is methane gas? Trace joins us and discusses cow farts and just how damaging methane gas can be to the environment.

Methane Emissions From Arctic Ocean Seafloor
Publicado em 24 de jun de 2016
I discuss a recently published paper (May, 2016) titled "Effects of climate change on methane emissions from seafloor sediments: A review".
Rapidly declining sea ice and snow cover is darkening the Arctic, leading to large temperature amplification. I talk about some of the paper highlights, and how a warmer, wavier and more open Arctic is leading to many physical and geochemical processed that are causing increased methane concentrations in both the water column and the atmosphere.
