A indústria de reciclagem de embalagens plásticas na Região Metropolitana de Belém

Este trabalho estuda os aspectos econômicos e socioambientais que caracterizam a indústria de reciclagem de embalagens plásticas na Região Metropolitana de Belém (RMB) e seu impacto sobre o desenvolvimento urbano local.. Neste sentido, em pesquisa realizada com indústrias de reciclagem de embalagens plásticas pós-consumo que atuam na RMB constatou-se que o número de indústrias no período coberto pela pesquisa (2001-2005) sofreu pouca alteração, no entanto, as indústrias que se consolidaram: CRA, Sacotex e Norplasa sustentam a cadeia de negócios no ramo de reciclagem de embalagens plásticas pós-consumo. Esta pesquisa também procura mostrar o impacto desta atividade para o desenvolvimento local através da análise econômica advinda do reprocessamento do resíduo sólido plástico incorporando elementos que possibilitem a criação de indicadores socioeconômicos. A proposta concretiza-se pelo uso da metodologia da análise econômica dos custos e benefícios resultantes dessa atividade. Os principais resultados do estudo demonstram os custos e benefícios auferidos pelas indústrias com a atividade de reciclagem, bem como o impacto dessa atividade sobre os agentes de base ( os coletores de materiais recicláveis) e como esta atividade tem fomentado o desenvolvimento urbano local através da integração entre os agentes econômicos que fazem parte desse processo.

Urbanização e estratégias de desenvolvimento no Pará: da ocupação ribeirinha aos assentamentos precários

Este texto investiga os investimentos recentes na produção de habitação e urbanização de assentamentos precários da primeira geração de contratos do Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento - PAC, na sua modalidade Infraestrutura Social e Urbana, em andamento na capital do Pará, Belém, e em cidades que desempenham funções de cidades médias no estado do Pará - Marabá e Castanhal. Para melhor situar o problema, o texto explicita como ciclos econômicos ocorridos na região estão associados ao crescimento demográfico, ao desenvolvimento urbano e à produção dos assentamentos informais nessas cidades, e explora como as intervenções respondem a variáveis tais como acesso a terra e inserção na cidade, gestão e regulação urbanística disponíveis, padrões de uso e ocupação do solo praticados, e potencial de consolidação dos assentamentos após a intervenção, na expectativa de inferir se há padrões entre tais ações e qual sua contribuição para a estruturação do espaço dessas cidades.

Eletrificação e crescimento industrial no estado de São Paulo: 1880-1940

O objetivo deste trabalho é evidenciar a existência de relações entre progresso técnico e desenvolvimento econômico no processo de formação da economia brasileira. Em seu aspecto mais específico, refere-se ao estudo do desenvolvimento da eletrificação e seus efeitos sobre o crescimento industrial no Estado de São Paulo, no período compreendido entre as duas décadas finais do século passado até a década de 1930. Durante este período - quando a economia e a sociedade brasileiras se transformam pelo desenvolvimento de relações de produção de natureza capitalista, ocorridas a partir do fim do escravismo, da introdução do trabalho assalariado, da expansão cafeeira, do aparecimento da ferrovia e dos bancos, das primeiras indústrias e, enfim, de atividades voltadas ao desenvolvimento do mercado interno - , o desenvolvimento da eletrificação e, especialmente, o uso de força motriz elétrica na indústria constituíram transformações essenciais. A o provocarem alterações irrevogáveis na base técnica da indústria contribuíram, também, para a alteração do padrão de acumulação.

Urbanização, turismo e seus impactos nos recursos naturais no município de Ilhabela - SP

The urbanization process in the Brazilian cities is directly linked to its main economic activities, and causes several impacts on the natural resources. It can be seen at the city of Ilhabela, an archipelago located at the north coast of the state of São Paulo, that still has a great area of preserved Atlantic Rainforest, and where today the tourism is the main economic activity. With this in sight, this paper aimed to make a prospect of the current situation of the city, looking at the main aspects of its economic and urban development and the environmental impacts related to them. Among the aspects studied, are the irregular occupations at preservation areas on the island: the pressure on the sea ecosystems by the fishing and the boat circulation, and at the beaches by the tourists flow. Were also observed the characteristics of the city’s urban infrastructure, such as the water supply, sewer and road networks and the waste collecting. Finally, it was analyzed the way that the government acts over the preservation of the island’s natural resources, by the Municipality and the Ilhabela State Park, so that the acting of these two agents could be compared

Impactos socioespaciais do uso e ocupação do solo urbano na área de entorno do Aeroporto Internacional de São Paulo - Guarulhos - Andre Franco Montoro

The construction of the São Paulo International Airport in Guarulhos recorded significant economic growth for the whole region, especially for services and jobs generated. Despite the importance of its presence in Guarulhos, we note the absence of an articulate and committed planning to urban development of the city, mainly in adjacent areas to this airport system planning. Through this stud, we analyzed primarily the major interferences and modifications afforded by its presence in guarulhense spatiality. We found that the government was, to some extent, tolerant to mounting housing in the surrounding area to the airport, from the moment that allowed the diverse urban land use in the place where it was planned to build such equipment. We further note that the airport is developed autonomously to the municipality in which the investments and related works only aim to meet the needs of the enterprise

Dinâmicas de segregação sócio-espacial no meio urbano

In this study we discuss a range of topics related to urban development from the perspective of connection points between the existence of the individual subjects’ lives. In this connection we identified the signs that express an articulation among subjectivity processes and conditions for interference in the real world, relying on circumscribed remarks about spatial configurations and its uses. This way, the substance of our research is structured upon the concept of fashion brands operating new dynamics of urban lifestyles, a strengthened reliance on the physical body’s appearance and the profusion of a supposed “I”, presented as a spectacle. Taking these assertions as new “trends” on building view-points and contemporary cities, we discuss the implications of these currents on how people gather and organize themselves in the urban landscape, making an effort to comprehend how these vogues reverberate on the (re)production of increasingly segregated cities

A precarização do trabalho: migrantes nordestinos no município de Leme-SP : caminhos, estradas e sonhos

This paper aims to examine the genesis of migration to the city of Leme-SP, as well as the influence of the social matrix northeastern expansion and redevelopment through the territorialization of the migrant population, particularly workers from the state of Ceará, migration from the 1970s. This process is evidenced by the territorial division of labor, through the economic, political and cultural insecurity through the work of cutting sugar cane, the territoriality of culture and northeastern faith in the city, and becomes another object before the materiality in which occurs. In this aspect, through dialogue between the sciences and arts, it was possible to show the historical importance of the phenomenon of migration in the country, in different scales and relationship that encompasses everything and everyone

São Paulo 2012: Um sonho, um projeto, uma visão

Millennia ago, through the myths of greeks gods and demi-gods, comes a series of celebrations called Pan-Hellenic Games. Among these festivals, the most famous was certainly the Olympic Games - the Olympics. Forbidden by Rome in the third century AD, they are considered to worship the pagan gods, were rescued in 1894 by Pierre de Coubertin. Over 113 years and 29 Olympiads, the event took gigantic proportions and the right to host the Games has become one of the closest racing of the modern world. Catalyst for urban development, the Olympic Games were the subject of dream for the city of Sao Paulo in the 2000’s, and an internal dispute was fought with Rio de Janeiro to get the right to host the 2012 Games. A team of Paulo Mendes da Rocha and associates was responsible for designing the plan. Eliminated from contention, Sao Paulo forgot the Olympic dream, and in October 2009 the city of Rio was finally chosen to host the Olympics in 2016. This project aims to rescue the look of architectural and urban plan Sao Paulo 2012 and with a critical and poetic eye create a visual identity for a fictitious victory in the election of São Paulo in 2003. Not aiming to create a corporate identity program - because this is not the mission of the architect - but look at Sao Paulo and the Olympics with poetry and criticism in the true Olympic spirit of peace and hope.

Efeito de hipercabia no desenvolvimento de ovos de Trachemys scripta

Females of the painted turtle, Trachemys scripta, have an annual reproductive cycle. Their nest periods in Brazil starts around September and they lay about 7 - 10 eggs in nests dug in the soil. The eggs hatch in December. It is possible that the nest cover cause problems for the gas diffusion, also, the rain can wet or compact the soil covering the nest, or even soaked the whole area. Those problems may change the nests intern atmosphere decreasing O2 partial pressure (hypoxia) and increasing CO2 partial pressure (hypercarbia). The main objective of this study was to determine if and how hypercarbia (3% and 6%CO2), could influence the eggs and early posthatching development of the Trachemys scripta. We used three experimental groups of eggs incubated in: normal atmosphere (Control group CG, n = 14), hypercarbia with 3% of CO2 (G3%, n = 16) and with 6% of CO2 (G6%, n = 15). The profile of the mass increment during the egg development were not different among the groups, GC = 9.89±0.81g; G3% = 10.11±0.60g and G6% = 10.58±0.36g. In addition, the mass of the post-hatching turtles were the not different. There were not differences between the duration of the incubation period among the experimental groups, GC = 60.12±0.97days, G3% = 59.00±0.98days and G6% = 60.80±1.14days. The mortality rates were not affected by the hypercarbia, GC = 0.43 (43%), G3% = 0.27 (27%) and G6% = 0.37 (37%). Furthermore, the mass increment and the metabolic rate were the same among the early development of the turtles until 3 month after hatching. We conclude that hypercarbia (up to 6% of CO2) does not cause any alteration on the eggs or post-hatching normal development. It is possible that the combination of hypercarbia and hypoxia change those results

A formulação de uma corrente urbanística: uma (re)visita às teses de Anhaia Mello para São Paulo

The present article aims to elaborate an objective analytical panel, initially from the 1920- 1930 when Luiz Ignácio Romeiro de Anhaia Mello, cathedratic in the urban question, started to quote a series of authors and American plans as references to their reflections, mainly when the point was the verticalization or not at São Paulo City. From a broad bibliographic research with the systematization of the register from the debate between Anhaia Mello, this article intends to point out how the transposition of the urbanistic conceptions to the academic environment happened and, at the same time, the legal normatization of the São Paulo City that resulted in the creation of a draft of the regulations for use and occupation of the soil. The systematizations and analysis were based in a broad reading of the bibliography and documental sources that refer to the proposed theme. The books of the library of FAU-USP, specifically the one from SAGMACS – Sociedade de Análises Gráficas e Mecanográficas Aplicadas aos Complexos Sociais ( Society of Graphical Mechanical-Graphic Analysis Applied to Social Complexes) -, aiming to select papers and the collection of Anhaia Mello´s family, so that a reconstruction of the intellectual and professional journey of the Urbanism Professor. The systematization of the collected data and posterior comparison with the bibliographical study was fundamental for the reconstruction of the reflection of Anhaia Mello about the ways of the urban streets and roads at Sao Paulo City should be lead to on the middle of the XX century having as a guideline the debate between Anhaia Mello – very common on the 1950s for less important countries when dealing with the organization of the size of industrial metropolis. It was possible to identify the crystallization of one urbanistic proposal for the city: the from Anhaia Mello, that bet on the reversion of the metropolitan cycle by stopping the urban growth by the application of the theoretical conception of the garden city.
