L'article presenta una visió global de la problemitica dels residus industrials des d'una doble perspectiva que destaca el caracter sbcioterritorial dels impactes, associats a la seva preskncia en el medi, i els conflictes que s'esdevenen entorn a les opcions de gestió actualment vigents. Després d'examinar els residus en relació amb la producció industrial, i la producció i "eliminació", dels residus industrials des de la dimensió territorial, es fa un reph de les polítiques de gestió, sobre la base de diferents palsos productors, i s'estudien les implicacions socio-polítiques dels models de gestió, tot centrant-se en l'analisi de les iniciatives ciutadanes alemanyes i de les mobilitzacions a Catalunya en resposta al cepla Director per a la Gestió dels Residus Industrials a Catalunyau. A les conclusions s'enceta una reflexió a l'entorn de la recerca en Geografia Humana i l'anilisi dels residus industrials, i es plantegen les implicacions tebriques i epistemologiques de cara a una visió social dels problemes ambientals.

The style of life in the cities deprives the man of the contact with nature. As a way to escape from the turbulent reality of the urban system, the urban planning provides areas that allow the contact between man and nature like botanical gardens, parks, leafy squares, etc. These places, through specific analysis, are also called green areas. Thus, the main purpose of this research is to outline and analyze, through geoprocessing techniques, green areas of Americana, São Paulo considering them as indicators of urban environmental quality. This evaluation will be based on the methodology adapted by Bargos (2010) where products of remote sensing were used (aerial photos and satellite images) and it will be also based on field work and calculation of the amount of green areas. The software ESRI ArcGIS® will be used to create thematic maps connected with city’s green areas. Based on the results achieved in this study, it’s expected to contribute to the government of the city of Americana in order to provide benefits of analysis for decision makers in the context of urban planning aiming an improvement in the urban environmental quality, thus benefiting its entire population

To maximise the potential of protected areas, we need to understand the strengths and weaknesses in their management and the threats and stresses that they face. There is increasing pressure on governments and other bodies responsible for protected areas to monitor their effectiveness. The reasons for assessing management effectiveness include the desire by managers to adapt and improve their management strategies, improve planning and priority setting and the increasing demands for reporting and accountability being placed on managers, both nationally and internationally. Despite these differing purposes for assessment, some common themes and information needs can be identified, allowing assessment systems to meet multiple uses. Protected-area management evaluation has a relatively short history. Over the past 20 years a number of systems have been proposed but few have been adopted by management agencies. In response to a recognition of the need for a globally applicable approach to this issue, the IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas developed a framework for assessing management effectiveness of both protected areas and protected area systems. This framework was launched at the World Conservation Congress in Jordan in 2000. The framework provides guidance to managers to develop locally relevant assessment systems while helping to harmonise assessment approaches around the world. The framework is strongly linked to the protected area management process and is adaptable to different types and circumstances of protected areas around the world. Examples from Fraser Island in Australia and the Congo Basin illustrate the use of the framework.
