INVENT��RIO ECOTUR��STICO DA BACIA DO RIO PASSA-CINCO - SP, COM O AUXILIO DE GEOTECNOLOGIAS

O presente estudo foi realizado na Bacia Hidrogr��fica do Rio Passa-Cinco, onde existem elementos da paisagem de grande interesse ecotur��stico, al��m de patrim��nios naturais que, se preservados e aproveitados mediante a����es de gestão ambiental ser��o potenciais agentes de desenvolvimento sustent��vel na regi��o. Apesar da ��rea possuir atrativos naturais como cachoeiras, corredeiras, cavernas, canions, lagos, pared��es, mirantes, entre outros, indicando alto potencial de uso sustent��vel do ponto de vista ecotur��stico, a regi��o ainda n��o recebeu investimentos suficientes para que toda a diversidade paisag��stica seja usufru��da. Portanto, este trabalho tem o objetivo de elaborar um Inventario Ecotur��stico da Bacia do Rio Passa-Cinco, inserido nos munic��pios de Itirapina-SP e Ipe��na-SP, utilizando ferramentas de Geoprocessamento. Para tanto, realizou-se um trabalho de campo com visita aos locais que apresentam valor c��nico consider��vel e potencial ecotur��stico. Os locais identificados e visitados foram caracterizados usando fotografias, textos explicativos, tabelas e MDTs (Modelo Digital de Terreno). A integra����o destas informa����es constitui um Banco de Dados Geogr��fico Digital Georreferenciado (BDGDG) em ambiente ArcGIS 9.0, dispon��vel em http://ceapla.rc.unesp.br/atlas/. Os resultados obtidos subsidiam a����es de gestão ambiental, como o planejamento ecotur��stico na bacia, favorecendo o desenvolvimento sustent��vel das comunidades envolvidas.

Esverdeando a manufatura: dos fundamentos conceituais ao estudo de m��ltiplos casos

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration of environmental issues in the context of manufacturing function/production (or operations), which is considered the organizational area that should lead corporate environmental management. We present a background on the greening of the manufacturing area, especially in terms of product development, process, quality management and logistics. Four case studies of Brazilian companies are presented as part of the study, and it is found that the maturity level of these companies' environmental management tends to follow the degree to which the environment has been inserted into subareas of production, especially in the process of product development. However, difficulties encountered in greening a company's logistics activities are also recognized in most cases. It is concluded that companies can overcome this challenge by adopting new concepts of green supply chain management. The notes highlight the observed distance between arguments in the international literature and the reality of Brazilian companies on the greening of manufacturing aspects.

Um estudo sobre a certifica����o ISO 9001 no Brasil: mapeamento de motiva����es, benef��cios e dificuldades

This work aims to identify the main motivations and difficulties faced by Brazilian companies to obtain ISO 9001 certification. The key quality management practices that provide support to this certification and the relationship with other types of systems, such as ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System), were also investigated. A survey research was conducted with 191 companies. The main motivations for implementing ISO 9001 are the following: internal organization improvement, production efficiency increase, and brand reliability improvement. Employee resistance was the greatest challenge found during the implementation process. On the other hand, the main benefits identified were: quality processes improvement and increased employee awareness of quality. The results reveal that the most common quality programs and tools used are: 5S, brainstorming, and Ishikawa diagram, while the least common are SERVQUAL and QFD.

Proposta de implementa����o da ISO 14001 em uma empresa qu��mica

Due to environmental concerns and the current legal requirements, companies are looking for ways to reconcile economic growth with environmental preservation. The purpose of this project is to show the stages of implementation of ISO 14001 in a chemical company and propose changes in chemical procedures creating goals to be achieved. In this paper, the study for the implementation of ISO 14001 is in Viapol ltda., where the lack of environmental management can cause enormous impact to the environment and may generate air, soil and water pollution. The project resulted in a mapping of all the processes and a broad survey of waste and emissions, generating proposals to change some of the processes and and creating programs to achieve the goals and objectives proposed in the Environmental Policy. Adopting an environmental management system (EMS), the company will reduce costs by decreasing the amount of raw material used, shooting down on waste disposal and the amount of it, and increasing productivity. By committing to the implementation of the EMS, companies will be demonstrating a proactive approach to environmental issues and enrich its image to consumers��� point of view
