Cerca de 90% das plantas com flores e 35% das culturas agrícolas são dependentes de animais para polinização, e as abelhas são os principais agentes polinizadores de uma ampla variedade de espécies de plantas de ambientes naturais e agrícolas. Assim, as abelhas não só são imprescindíveis para a manutenção e conservação de comunidades de plantas em sistemas naturais, como também na atuação direta e significativa na produtividade agrícola. Atualmente, as populações de abelhas estão em declínio no mundo todo, em decorrência, principalmente, do crescente desmatamento e consequente perda de habitas adequados, além de outras ações antrópicas que modificam os seus nichos. Tendo em vista que muitos estudos, realizados principalmente em regiões temperadas, têm demonstrado que a paisagem do entorno dos cultivos agrícolas influencia a diversidade e abundância de polinizadores, avaliações sobre o efeito do contexto da paisagem na fauna de abelhas se tornam fundamentais. Este estudo teve como objetivo geral identificar os fatores que influenciam a riqueza e a abundância/diversidade de abelhas nativas em áreas agrícolas inseridas em um gradiente de quantidade de habitat e níveis de heterogeneidade da paisagem. O estudo foi conduzido no município de Guapiara, SP, região predominantemente agrícola, com fragmentos florestais de Mata Atlântica no entorno das propriedades rurais. Para amostrar a distribuição e a diversidade das abelhas foram usadas armadilhas do tipo pan trap (nas cores amarelo, azul e branco). Em cada ponto amostral foram instaladas cinco estações (cada estação composta por um pan traps de cada cor) de 1,5m de altura, cuja distribuição espacial dentro das propriedades de estudo tem formato de X e distantes uma das outras 5m. As amostragens foram de 30h/coleta em cada ponto amostral (n=17, cada um com raio de 1000m), realizadas em uma única época do ano (primavera/verão, quente e chuvoso)...

After realizing two interviews, with distinct managers/businessmen working in the cotton industry, the objective is to put in evidence the political, economical and social factors that contributed to the formation and configuration of the Mato Grosso state, after the trade liberalization that occurred in the early 90's, it's effects and consequences in the eyes of the interviewed. The study of public policies is primordial to the discovery of the configuration of determined place, evaluating advances and possible errors in the social, economical and environmental areas. Through the analysis of the interviews it has been found that the urban centers have been developing with a direct link to the industrial activities related to agriculture and that the labor work force have also been attracted because of these changes, and as a consequence this labor force is now becoming more specialized to be able to accompany the jobs requirements in the industry. Analyzing the interviews, it is possible to highlight some information about the development of Mato Grosso, among those the following factors and public policies. The creation and expansion of the cities in the state are possible through public and private investment in infrastructure the socioeconomic development of the state is linked with the advances made in the private sector that grows because of advances made in crops technology in contrast to the occupation of the cerrado, in relation to the cotton crops. The problems that Mato Grosso is facing are mainly linked to the region infrastructure, that can count on investment plans to transportation and production flow that dates before the globalization era. The pattern that is seen today with top of the line agricultural production, big monoculture with high productivity and the arrival of multinational giants, was implanted because of two important events: the trade liberalization in the 1990's and the cambial depreciation in the 1999's...

This work is part of several research related to the plan of design and construction of a sustainable house. The previous researches focused on sustainable materials and it have shown that ceramic material are more interesting to improve the thermal comfort and the reduction of fees and prices of the house, making possible to construct popular home, mainly clay bricks, that have high thermal inertia and low costs, besides the fact that it is easy to find the raw materials in nature and process them. However, a major issue in using clay bricks is that it uses too many energy to be processed during the sintering (burning), a crucial part of the process that assures mechanical resistance. Alternative materials are being proposed by the researchers, as the clay bricks without the sintering mixed with Portland cement, assuring the proper resistance to the brick. Raw materials of cement, however, also need to be thermally processed in rotary kilns, in a process called clinckerization. This research was proposed for comparing the energy used by the two types of bricks and other objectives, in order to determinate which one uses less thermal energy. The intention was to compare the energy used during the sintering of regular clay bricks and the unfired bricks with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% of Portland cement. The paper also investigated and compared the use of electrical and thermal energy of all the bricks to identify how important were the thermal stages (sintering or clinkerization) relatively to the total energy spent. At last, a resumed analysis was performed to identify the possible health damages of the many life cycles of the bricks. The conclusion was that unfired bricks with less than 40% of cement use less thermal energy to be processed. In addition, their carbon dioxides emissions were less dangerous to ...
