The authors have examined municipal waste, its components and their integration with reverse logistics processes. Background: The theoretical part begins with a definition of municipal waste. Later, the integration between municipal waste and reverse logistics is provided, including presentation of the hierarchy of qualitative methods and models. Methods: The authors constructed a correlation matrix and applied a dynamic regression model to identify that the level of municipal waste impacts recycling of biowaste which demands reverse logistics. Results: The authors provided a dynamic regression model which could be applied for forecasting the size of recycled municipal waste into biowaste indicated in European Union countries. Conclusions: The variety of components in municipal waste prevents the increase of the recycling rates and has to be changed to ones that have higher recycling rates.

“…When it comes to pesticide pollution, it is essential to follow product instructions and implement laws on good agricultural practices. This includes appropriate transportation and storage to prevent leaks or spills, and the responsible disposal of packaging and waste (Marsola et al 2021). The preference for using biopesticides can also be considered an effective alternative for pest management, linked to the reduction of environmental contamination (Ebadollahi, 2020…”

Brazil is an important global agricultural producer and to increase production the country has extensively used glyphosate-based herbicides (GBH), surpassing consumption and sales records. Consequently, concerns have arisen regarding the potential impact of GBH on ecosystems and non-target organisms. Thus, the effects of GBH exposure were evaluated throughout the cricket Gryllus (Gryllus) assimilis ontogeny, with five developmental stages. Each period contained 3 control and 3 treated boxes, with 15 crickets each, resulting in 90 insects at a time. The control groups received water, while the treated ones were continuously exposed to GBH (0.864 mg.GBH.L-1), with the solutions changed every 48 hours. After each exposure time the crickets’ group were euthanized to assess the activity of antioxidant enzymes (GST, GR, GPx, and CAT), cholinergic enzymes (ChE), and lipid peroxidation (LPO). The results revealed changes in the systems throughout different developmental phases. Specifically, CAT activity exhibited a significant increase during the nymphal phase, associated with the dismutation of hydrogen peroxide. The GST increased GBH, indicating its role in cellular detoxification, particularly during adulthood. In the senescence stage there was a considerable rise in ChE enzymes, suggesting their involvement in both, choline esters breakdown and potential pesticide detoxification. The action of these enzymes to effectively control lipid peroxidation shows the adaptability of this species to environmental contamination. These findings underscore the long-term effects of agrochemical pollution and emphasize the importance of sustainable practices, effective regulations, and alternative weed control methods.

Nos últimos anos tem-se aumentado a área cultivada para a agricultura no Brasil devido a disponibilidade de recursos, tecnologias e terras cultiváveis. Tornando-o como o maior consumidor de agrotóxicos no mundo, apesar de não ser o maior produtor rural. Isso tem causado grandes impactos na saúde humana e do meio ambiente, relacionados ao uso e descarte inadequado das embalagens de agrotóxicos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal analisar a importância do sistema de gestão operacional da logística reversa das embalagens de agrotóxicos. A metodologia é uma pesquisa bibliográfica de caracter descritivo. Os resutados apontam para potenciais problemas em relação a gestão da logística reversa das embagens de agrotoxicos no Brasil. A quantidade de embalagens devolvidas aumentou. Porém os pontos de coleta vêm diminuindo. As venda de defensivos cresce a uma taxa superior ao número de pontos de coleta. Aumento-se o número de membros da indústria no Sistema Campo Limpo, sem um aumento correspondente nos pontos de coleta. Contundo, nos últimos anos tem-se diminuido o número de destinação das embalagens de agrotóxicos através do sistema campo limpo.
