“…Also worth highlighting is a traditional unit in the field of health promotion, the School of Public health. All these units have an interdisciplinary character, the most widespread to address social and environmental issues, as mentioned by Philippi Jr. & Silva neto (2011) and Ribeiro (2010). environmental issues are complex and require a multiple and differential analysis that brings together skills from different fields of knowledge in a critical way, while alternating and combining classical methodologies for establishing new measures of scientific, technological and public policy production.…”

and Wellington Delitti. it was also decided that the Research Group in environmental Sciences from the institute of Advanced Study would be charged with coordinating the work. After several meetings, the group decided to put together a collection of Theses and Dissertations defended by USP's students between 1992 and 2011 on subjects related to Rio+20, including information on the author, as well as an abstract and keywords. in addition, an analysis of this material by USP experts would also be provided, indicating the progress and challenges related to each research in the following areas-Governance and Agenda 21; Green economy and social inclusion; and Climate Change. The set of texts in this section of advanced studies addresses this second stage. Multilateral meetings as the ones to be held in Rio de Janeiro often serve as an encouragement to new forms of international cooperation. in addition, they draw public attention before, during and after the event, which in itself ensures greater visibility to and discussion of topics of general interest. it is even better when such a major event, which brings together heads of state and government, is able to produce binding agreements that will lead them to meet targets towards a less unequal world in the use of and access to natural resources. Unlike the United nations Conference on environment and Development-Rio-92, which was held at a time of international optimism, when the world had just come out of the Cold War and there were signs of greater understanding among countries, Rio+20 will take place under the effects of the greatest financial, economic and political crisis in recent years.

“…Many of these agents of change sought, and continue to seek, to further socio-environmental discourses, which arose in earnest in the mid-1980s from attempts to integrate environmental issues within the sectors of the democracy movement advocating Brazilian social issues, including the broad movement for democracy and social justice issues (Ferreira 1996;Hochstetler and Keck 2007;Ribeiro 2010). These issues were conflated and further combined with issues of local participation, resulting in calls for a new citizenship addressing social, environmental and participation issues (Ferreira and Ferreira 1995;Hochstetler and Keck 2007).…”

Genesis of the CDM: the original policymaking goals of the 1997 Brazilian proposal and their evolution in the Kyoto protocol negotiations into the CDM

A body of literature is emerging applying critical consideration to the Kyoto Protocol Clean Development Mechanism's ('CDM') achievement of policy goals regarding sustainable development, geographical distribution of projects and related matters. This article places this literature in the context of the policymaking goals of the CDM's Brazilian architects. The CDM arose from the Brazilian Proposal's Clean Development Fund, and was negotiated between Brazil and the United States in the weeks preceding the Kyoto Conference of Parties. The CDM's Brazilian architects continued to pursue their underlying policy goals by taking a leadership position in the Marrakesh Accords negotiations. During this period Brazil's primary policy objectives comprised achieving meaningful mitigation of GHG emissions to avoid dangerous interference with the climate system, derailing a perceived US/IPCC initiative to allocate emissions cap obligations in the Kyoto Protocol on the basis of current emissions, and taking a leadership position both among the G-77 and China and in the multilateral climate negotiations as a whole. The CDM arose in this context from the G-77 and China's desire to coerce the North's compliance with the North's emissions cap obligations through an alternative means of compliance. As a result, there was no focus on broad conceptions of sustainable development, or on broad distribution of CDM projects throughout the South. Instead, the CDM's Brazilian architects envisioned that CDM-related sustainable development would arise exclusively from the presence of the CDM projects. Similarly, the Brazilian Proposal advocated allocation of the Clean Development Fund on a basis proportionate to each nonAnnex I countries projected 1990-2010 greenhouse gas emissions. These views persisted through the evolution of the Clean Development Fund into the CDM and through Marrakesh Accords negotiations. This article argues that the CDM has largely met the policy

“…First, it is several thousand kilometres away from the country's main consumption centres in the southeast, south and northeast. And second, it involves difficult socio-environmental conditions (Ribeiro, 2010;Sachs, 2010). Most hydropower sites in the Amazon are situated within or close to environmental protection and/or indigenous areas.…”

O fornecimento de energia elétrica numa maneira sustentável se encontra entre os maiores desafios para a sociedade humana hoje em dia. Energia hidrelétrica é de longe a tecnologia de eletricidade renovável mais importante, porém igualmente longe de incontroversa. De fato, se encontra na encruzilhada de correntes socioambientais, tão fortemente promovido por uns quanto rejeitado por outros argumentos, organizações e movimentos ambientalistas. Este artigo sugere a Justiça Ambiental como abordagem alternativa para incorporar a sustentabilidade no planejamento energético, particularmente em projetos hidrelétricos. Enquanto vários métodos foram desenvolvidos para avaliar Justiça Ambiental no contexto urbano, pouca atenção foi dada a projetos elétricos até agora. Um método qualitativo para avaliar projetos hidrelétricos em relação ao seu desempenho em Justiça Ambiental é discutido e ilustrado no caso do projeto hidrelétrico São Luiz do Tapajós, na Amazônia brasileira. Como vai ser mostrado, mudanças fundamentais serão necessárias no Brasil para que o planejamento energético em geral e projetos hidrelétricos em específico cumpram os princípios de Justiça Ambiental.
