Transição Energética Justa E Protagonismo Dos Povos Indígenas

Antes da chegada dos colonizadores, a natureza era nosso lar, onde vivíamos em perfeita harmonia com a floresta e todas as criaturas que nela habitavam. Nós utilizávamos os recursos naturais que a terra nos oferecia, mas sempre com respeito e cuidado. Tudo o que retirávamos era devolvido à terra, permitindo que ela se renovasse e prosperasse novamente. Com o avanço do sistema econômico baseado no capitalismo, o meio ambiente passou a ser visto como uma matéria-prima explorável, o que resultou em problemas como as mudanças climáticas. Essas mudanças têm causado impactos negativos na Terra, nos ecossistemas e nas comunidades que dependem da natureza. Uma das alternativas para reduzir esses impactos ambientais é a transição de fontes de energia elétrica que geram carbono, como os combustíveis fósseis, para as chamadas “fontes de energia renovável”, como a energia solar, eólica e hidrelétrica. Essa mudança busca diminuir a emissão de gases de efeito estufa, responsáveis pelo aquecimento global, e seus efeitos prejudiciais.

Women, Business and the Law 2020

  • Categories: Law

Women, Business and the Law 2020, the sixth edition in a series, analyzes laws and regulations affecting women's economic inclusion in 190 economies. The Women, Business and the Law Index, composed by eight indicators structured around women's interactions with the law as they begin, progress through and end their careers, aligns different areas of the law with the economic decisions women make at various stages of their lives. The indicators are: Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension.The report updates all indicators as of September 1, 2019, and builds evidence around the linkages between legal gender equality and women's economic inclusion. By examining the economic decisions women make as they go through different stages of their working lives and the pace of reforms over the past 2 years, Women, Business and the Law makes an important contribution to research and policy discussions about the state of women's economic opportunities and empowerment. While celebrating the progress made, the data and analysis emphasize the work still to be done to ensure economic empowerment for all.

Theoretical and Computational Methods in Mineral Physics

Volume 71 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry represents an extensive review of the material presented by the invited speakers at a short course on Theoretical and Computational Methods in Mineral Physics held prior (December 10-12, 2009) to the Annual fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, California. The meeting was held at the Doubletree Hotel & Executive Meeting Center in Berkeley, California. Contents: Density functional theory of electronic structure: a short course for mineralogists and geophysicists The Minnesota density functionals and their applications to problems in mineralogy and geochemistry Density-functional perturbation theory for quasi-harmon...

Prisons of Poverty

In this title, the author examines how penal policies emanating from the United States have spread thoughout the world. The author argues that the policies have their roots in a network of Reagan-era conservative think tanks, which used them as weapons in their crusade to dismantle the welfare state and, in effect, criminalise poverty.

  • Publisher: Elsevier

This book is a comprehensive treatment of the elastic volumetric response of sandstones to variations in stress. The theory and data presented apply to the deformations that occur, for example, due to withdrawal of fluid from a reservoir, or due to the redistribution of stresses caused by the drilling of a borehole. Although the emphasis is on reservoir-type sandstones, results and methods discussed are also applicable to other porous rocks.Part One concerns the effect of stress on deformation and discusses porous rock compressibility coefficients. Elasticity theory is used to derive relationships between the porous rock compressibility coefficients, the porosity, and the mineral grain compr...
