<br />
Organised by CIFOR as part of the project <br />
‘Bioenergy, sustainability and trade-offs: can we avoid deforestation while <br />
promoting bioenergy?’ <br />
<br />
<br />
21– 27 September 2011 <br />
Bogor, Indonesia <br />
<br />
Background <br />
The palm oil industry is anticipating further expansion to fulfil growing demands for food, and to supply palm oil for the biofuels markets. Indonesia is the world’s largest producer of palm oil. Indonesia and Malaysia together supply 85% of the global demand for palm oil. Indonesia has the potential to become a world biodiesel leader with a model for plantation sustainability. Due to its long history in the development of this commodity, Indonesia offers valuable lessons on the pros and cons of different business models for land use and benefits distribution. The expansion plans for oil palm in Indonesia, however, have also raised concerns about unintended social, economic and environment implications. The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil has established an international standard for certified palm oil, but recent developments in the country indicate the creation of a new national standard is needed. This exchange aims to examine lessons on what has worked to date with the national RSPO standards and potential adjustments so as to blueprint a credible international standard. We have witnessed a rising demand for palm oil; increasing land allocated to oil palm plantations in many countries in Latin America and Africa; and the shift in oil palm investment by <br />
corporate actors from Southeast Asia region to some African countries. Therefore, sharing lessons amongst relevant actors on sustainable and equitable oil palm development options would benefit many stakeholders. <br />
Purpose - This South–South exchange initiative aims to promote the sharing of experiences and knowledge amongst key policy decision makers, industry representatives and researchers from countries in southeast Asia, sub- Saharan Africa and Latin America, including Brazil, Cameroon, Colombia, Ghana, Indonesia and Malaysia. <br />
Topics will include sustainable and equitable options for oil palm development, and recommended policy shifts in these countries to support the transitions towards more equitable and sustainable models. <br />
Participants <br />
Participants will include two representatives each from Cameroon, Colombia, Brazil and Ghana; four from Malaysia; and invited participants from Indonesia linked to the government, the private sector and independent policy advisors. The participants are expected to share their experiences of oil palm <br />
development in their own countries during the formal and informal sharing sessions. Field visits will provide opportunities for more informal sharing and discussion around the different topics to be covered. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Approaches <br />
The exchange will include the following activities. <br />
Discussions and face-to-face interactions with relevant institutions and organisations <br />
Field visits to oil palm plantations to learn from experiences of the private sector and from local actors <br />
Attend a discussion forum on the options and challenges for oil palm development as part of the CIFOR <br />
workshop ‘Forests Indonesia: Alternative futures to meet demands for food, fibre, fuel and REDD+’ <br />
Topics <br />
Topics to be covered during these events will include: <br />
Legal and institutions frameworks governing oil palm business and development <br />
Land acquisition and production partnerships amongst large-scale plantations and smallholders <br />
Effectiveness of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil and corporate social responsibility <br />
On-the-ground realities for oil palm plantations and smallholders invested and working in oil palm <br />
plantations in Sumatra. <br />
Draft schedule <br />
Discussion sessions amongst public and private <br />
actors in the oil palm sector 21–22 September CIFOR campus, Bogor <br />
Field visit to a certified oil palm company and <br />
smallholder production schemes 23–25 September Riau Province, Sumatra <br />
Visit to government planning agencies and <br />
relevant ministries 26 September Jakarta <br />
Participation in Forests Indonesia conference, <br />
‘Alternative futures to meet demands for food, <br />
fibre, fuel and REDD+’ <br />
27 September Jakarta <br />
Anticipated outcomes <br />
By conveying evidence-based knowledge from policy analysis and practitioners’ lessons learnt to key <br />
decision makers in government, industry and civil society, we expect participants will take away examples of <br />
‘what works’ in sustainable oil palm development. We plan to produce a policy brief in Indonesian and <br />
English that summarises the main lessons learnt. We will disseminate the policy brief to all participants of <br />
Forests Indonesia as part of conference follow-on activities as well as to key actors in the oil palm sector <br />
through CIFOR and partner knowledge-sharing platforms. <br />

The sugarcane-ethanol sector’s expansion has been characterised by distinct waves of regulation and deregulation, heavy private investment and public financing for infrastructure, research and development. Close links with energy and climate change–related policies, the dualfuel car revolution, liberal foreign direct investment policies and fiscal and financial incentives have also played important roles. Questions are being raised about human rights and environmental justice due to poor working conditions, land concentration and displacement of smallholders as well as environmental impacts, especially in South-Central and Northeastern Brazil. The sugarcane-ethanol industry has sought to address these claims through voluntary governance and certification mechanisms. The Brazilian Government has also taken decisive action to forbid sugarcane expansion into sensitive ecosystems. Recent biodiesel feedstock policies aimed at smallholders have delivered substantial savings (US$1 billion/year) by substituting diesel imports, and made progress towards ‘social inclusion’. But these programs have fallen short of targets, as the prevailing feedstock is still soybeans followed by beef tallow, with production and processing still concentrated in the hands of large-scale soybean farmers and cattle ranchers. Despite robust and well-intended environmental, rural development and fiscal policies to support smallholders, some policies are extremely difficult to enforce given structural constraints faced by smallholders and the lack of adequate governance mechanisms.</p> <div class="extra"><h2>Topic:</h2> Biofuels, policy, climatic change</div><div class="extra"><h2>Geographic:</h2> Brazil</div><div class="extra"><h2>Pages:</h2> 39p </div><div class="extra"><h2>Publisher:</h2> Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), Bogor, Indonesia</div><div class="extra"><h2>Publication Year:</h2> 2011</div><div class="extra"><h2>Language:</h2> English</div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> </div><br /><br />Um forte abraçoUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077860662114377737.post-86039808198787454142011-09-15T12:42:00.001-04:002011-09-15T12:57:13.586-04:00Climate Policies and Indigenous Rights: Beyond CarbonClimate Policies and Indigenous Rights<br /><br />A REPORT FROM<br /><br />THE INTERNATIONAL FORUM<br />ON GLOBALIZATION<br /><br />by Gretchen Gordon<br />ECOMMENDATIONS<br /><br />When climate policies like agrofuels promotion threaten indigenous rights, we may have tried to address a carbon<br />emissions problem, but we’ve created a human rights problem. In the current climate crisis, striving for real sustainability<br />means looking beyond carbon calculations, and even beyond climate change. It means designing policies that consider<br />entire social, economic, and environmental systems and how those systems interact. And it means prioritizing not just<br />short-term goals, but more overarching values like human rights, indigenous rights, biodiversity, environmental quality,<br />social equity and inclusion. One of the unique things about an indigenous rights-based approach to climate change is that<br />it can, in many cases, be a means of promoting each of these overarching values simultaneously. <br /><br />Policymakers and climate advocates should push for an indigenous rights-based approach to climate change. <br /><br />This approach should take guidance from indigenous peoples and indigenous peoples’ coalitions to: 1) address the real<br />drivers of climate change and avoid false solutions; 2) establish formal structures and mechanisms for effective<br />participation of indigenous peoples; and 3) integrate binding indigenous rights standards throughout climate policies and<br />mechanisms. <br /><br />Policymakers and advocates should ensure that climate policies:<br /><br />1) provide for the resources and mechanisms necessary to ensure effective direct participation of indigenous peoples in policymaking, and<br />to guarantee the free, prior and informed consent of indigenous peoples in the proposals that impact them; <br /><br />2) consider the impacts of climate change on indigenous peoples and acknowledge the contribution of indigenous peoples to climate change<br />mitigation and adaptation;<br /><br />3) explicitly reference the rights of indigenous peoples, including their collective rights, rather than merely referencing the interests<br />of, or impacts on, indigenous communities; <br /><br />4) acknowledge indigenous rights as inalienable human rights which carry obligations enforceable under international law;<br /><br />5) include binding indigenous rights safeguards at or above the minimum standards established by the Declaration, including the right to free,<br />prior and informed consent; and provide specific guidance as to the content and implementation of these rights;<br /><br />6) establish adequate mechanisms and provide necessary resources for effective monitoring, enforcement, and redress to ensure compliance<br />with indigenous rights standards.<br /><br /><br />veja na integra na lista de publicações o clique no link do titulo desta postagemUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077860662114377737.post-47171739262649353602011-09-13T16:38:00.000-04:002011-09-13T16:38:24.631-04:00Gestão da inovação e governança ambiental: um estudo das redes de inovação do setor sucroenergético<div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">O aumento da produção de etanol nos últimos dez anos no Brasil se deu graças a um grande aporte de investimento em pesquisa e desenvolvimento tecnológico, mas também a um fortalecimento das redes de inovação do setor sucroenergético e da ggovernança ambiental do setor, principalmente no estado de São Paulo. Desta maneira, esta pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar os arranjos e processos das redes de inovação tecnológica formadas pelos atores atuantes na cadeia de pesquisa, desenvolvimento e difusão tecnológica que vem favorecendo a consolidação do bioetanol no mercado. A coleta de dados se deu através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e análise documental. As considerações finais da pesquisa apresentam, entre outros pontos, que no setor sucroenergético há redes abertas e fechadas que se intersectam e promovem inovações radicais e incrementais; que na primeira geração do bioetanol e no cultivo da cana-de-açúcar há uma plataforma tecnológica sólida que contribui para a sustentabilidade econômica, social e ambiental do setor sucroenergético; e que está ocorrendo uma reestruturação das redes do setor, com a entrada de novos atores internacionais e aporte maciço em investimento e políticas públicas que possibilitam a produção sustentável e em escala industrial do etanol de primeira e de segunda geração e da utilização da cana-de-açúcar na indústria alcoolquímica.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Some whole towns in New England were cut off, while almost every home and business in New York City had been running on full power for days. </p><p> The slow restoration of the connections needed to heat water, run refrigerators and recharge cellphones prompted a lot of grumbling from elected officials and their constituents, most of it aimed at big utility companies. And the complaints did not always find sympathy: Connecticut Light and Power, the state's largest utility, said it might seek to raise rates to offset the $75 million in costs it expected to incur repairing its grid. </p><p> As the public dissatisfaction rose, so did the death toll from the storm, which caused relentless flooding that continued to create hazardous conditions from Vermont to Virginia. The National Guard airlifted supplies to 13 towns in Vermont left stranded by washed-out roads, while some residents of the Catskills region of New York subsisted on canned spaghetti heated on outdoor grills. In Connecticut, the start of the school year was postponed until next week while high schools were turned into shelters and libraries into makeshift Internet cafes. </p><p> At least 45 deaths have been attributed to the storm, including that of a 50-year-old man who was sucked into a sewer pipe on Wednesday while trying to drain his property in Lawrence Township, N.J. </p><p> Fixing broken lines was complicated by a lack of repair crews, and in some places, flooding. Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey said water had seeped into about 40 percent of the homes in Lincoln Park, Passaic County, and he repeated his demand that President Obama declare the state a disaster area. Earlier in the day, the president declared several flood-ravaged counties in upstate New York a "major disaster." </p><p> Though all of New Jersey's rivers had finally crested, Mr. Christie said several, including the Passaic River, would quite likely remain at dangerously high levels for another day or two. Because of damage to water treatment facilities, more than a dozen municipalities continued to ask their residents to boil water. Meanwhile, some 10,000 residents, mostly from Morris and Passaic Counties, remained evacuated from flooded neighborhoods, and 765 people stayed in 16 shelters. </p><p> "We're clearly not out of the woods yet," said Mr. Christie, who saw some of the worst-hit areas with Janet Napolitano, the federal secretary of homeland security, and W. Craig Fugate, the administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. </p><p> In New Jersey, about 20 percent of those who lost electricity, or 179,000 customers, still had none. In New York, about 287,000 customers had no power, more than half of them on Long Island. All told, more than one million homes and businesses on the East Coast were still waiting for electricity to be restored. </p><p> For many of those without power, the main complaint was a lack of solid information about how long their plight would last. Some said they would rather hear that the electricity would be off for a week than to be left wondering. </p><p> To allay some of that confusion, elected officials took to dragging utility executives before the television cameras to answer questions. Gov. Dannel P. Malloy of Connecticut brought top executives of the state's two main power providers along to a news conference on Tuesday evening. Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo took the same tack on Wednesday, insisting that Mark S. Lynch, the president of New York State Electrical and Gas, make public appearances in areas without electrical service. </p><p> Officials in the Cuomo administration have been frustrated by the difficulty they have encountered in getting some utilities to communicate, according to one official who was not authorized to speak publicly. When one of Mr. Cuomo's advisers called the state's utilities to press them to prepare for the cleanup, he had to track down a senior executive of National Grid in Europe, the official said. The company, which owns utilities in New York, has its headquarters in England. </p><br clear="all"> <div class="articleInline runaroundLeft"> <div class="columnGroup doubleRule"> <h3 class="sectionHeader">Related</h3> <ul class="headlinesOnly multiline flush"><li> <h6><a href="http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/08/31/irene-tosses-aside-a-100-year-old-queens-bungalow/?ref=nyregion"> City Room: Irene Tosses Aside a 100-Year-Old Queens Bungalow</a> (August 31, 2011) </h6> </li><li> <h6><a href="http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/08/31/irenes-cost-may-reach-1-billion-cuomo-says/?ref=nyregion"> Storm May Cost New York $1 Billion, Cuomo Says</a> (August 31, 2011) </h6> </li><li> <h6><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/01/nyregion/paterson-nj-is-devastated-by-floods-after-hurricane-irene.html?ref=nyregion"> River, at 100-Year High, Ravages a City That Once Thrived on It</a> (September 1, 2011) </h6> </li></ul> </div> <div class="columnGroup doubleRule"> <h3 class="sectionHeader">Related in Opinion</h3> <ul class="headlinesOnly multiline flush"><li> <h6><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2011/08/29/what-did-we-learn-from-irene?ref=nyregion"> Room for Debate: What Did We Learn From Irene?</a> </h6> </li></ul> </div> <div class="doubleRule"><div class="story"> <div class="runaroundRight"><a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/nytmetro/"><img src="http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2011/08/10/nyregion/nytmetro-twitter-image/nytmetro-twitter-image-thumbStandard.jpg" alt="Metro Twitter Logo." height="75" width="75"></a></div> <h4><a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/nytmetro/">Connect With Us on Twitter</a></h4> <p class="summary">Follow <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/nytmetro/">@NYTMetro</a> for New York breaking news and headlines.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="articleBody"> <p> Her neighbor Janine Soule, 40, chimed in: "Another thing that's bothering a lot of people is that we have no phones. I can't get in touch with my mom; I can't get in touch with anybody." </p><p> Ms. Napolitano accompanied Mr. Cuomo on a tour of Prattsville on Wednesday; the governor characterized the town as the hardest hit in the state. </p><p> In Easton, Conn., Lina Siciliano, 62, said the protracted loss of power, supplied by United Illuminating Company, was much more than an inconvenience. </p><p> "I don't know what to say, I'm so upset," said Ms. Siciliano, whose father and injured mother came to stay with her after losing power at their home in upstate New York. "I have two 84-year-old people in the house. All my insulin went bad. All the food in the refrigerator and freezer went bad." </p><p> Ms. Siciliano said she had called the utility six times. "I couldn't get through," she said. The municipal workers cutting trees opposite her house told her she might have to wait another four or five days. She said her patience would run out before then. </p><p> "People just didn't feel that the utility companies' actions matched what they had been told," United States Representative Joe Courtney said after surveying the damage in his district in eastern Connecticut. "The execution just wasn't there. That's pretty darn frustrating." </p><p> Mr. Courtney said he and Governor Malloy had just met with residents of several towns where most of the homes have not had their power restored. In North Stonington, which was completely dark, Mr. Courtney said they were told no repair crews had shown up yet. </p><p> Jeff Butler, the president of Connecticut Light and Power, said the company would have 1,200 crews on the job by Friday, 400 of them to clear trees and branches and 800 to repair fallen and tangled overhead lines. Most of those crews were called in from other states. Some crews came from as far away as British Columbia. </p><p> Securing enough help was complicated by the size of the storm, Mr. Courtney said. About 100 of the crews that the utility had requested from Quebec were en route to Connecticut when they were recalled to repair the damage that the storm did there, he explained. </p><p> Despite the scope of the restoration project it faced, the utility was no longer receiving a break from many of its customers by Wednesday afternoon. In the emergency operations center in Ridgefield, a town constable, Tom Belote, absorbed some residents' wrath. Even his wife had complained, he said, about the town's decision to cut off all power after the storm knocked out electricity to more than 90 percent of the homes on Sunday. </p><p> Mr. Belote's house was in one of the few neighborhoods that had been spared. But it too went dark after town officials agreed with the utility that it would be best to eliminate the risks of electrocution while crews worked to restore the power. </p><p> "After four days of answering phone calls from my neighbors, I can say a number of people were frustrated," Mr. Belote said. "For some of them, I tell them my tale of woe and it seems to work. For others, I just take the verbal abuse. I'm used to it." </p><p> Mr. Butler, the utility executive, did not assuage the rising ire when he said on Wednesday that the company would explore ways to recoup the costs of restoration from its customers. Utilities are allowed to do that, but given customers' anger, nobody was in the mood to consider that possibility. </p><div id="pageLinks"><a class="previous" title="Previous Page" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/01/nyregion/days-after-the-storm-many-are-left-in-the-dark.html?pagewanted=1&hp">« Previous Page</a><ul id="pageNumbers"> <li> <a title="Page 1" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/01/nyregion/days-after-the-storm-many-are-left-in-the-dark.html?pagewanted=1&hp">1</a> </li><li> 2 </li></ul></div> <div class="authorIdentification"> <p>Reporting was contributed by Sam Dolnick from Paterson, N.J.; Kristin Hussey and Robert Davey from Connecticut; Thomas Kaplan from New York; Noah Rosenberg from Prattsville, N.Y.; and Dirk Van Susteren from Calais, Vt. </p> </div> <div class="articleCorrection"> </div> </div> <div class="columnGroup "> <div class="articleFooter"> <div class="articleMeta"> <div class="opposingFloatControl wrap"> <div class="element1"> <h6 class="metaFootnote">A version of this article appeared in print on September 1, 2011, on page A1 of the New York edition with the headline: Days After the Storm, Many Are Still in the Dark.</h6> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><br> Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077860662114377737.post-89017418884460118612011-08-28T17:48:00.001-04:002011-08-28T17:49:51.352-04:00Pesquisadores do NUGOBIO fazem pesquisa das cadeias produtivas agroenergéticas do Tocantins 2011<table><tbody><tr><td width="100%">Esta Pesquisa faz parte do NUGOBIO...

A primeira reunião do grupo de pesquisadores, formado pelos professores da UFT <span class="il">Marcus</span> Finco, Waldecy Rodrigues e Fernanda Finco, além de Robert Bailis (Yale), foi realizada nesta segunda-feira (22) no Campus de Palmas.
<br />
<br />
<br />O objetivo do estudo é produzir um mapeamento inédito no Estado que possa também embasar as políticas públicas do setor, sejam voltadas ao aspecto econômico, social ou ambiental. "Vamos buscar entender o panorama atual e os desdobramentos da produção agroenergética tocantinense, quais os impactos ambientais e sociais, a segurança alimentar, quais políticas existem ou deveriam existir; ir além do agronegócio", explica <span class="il">Marcus</span> Finco.
<br />
<br />De acordo com Finco, a participação do professor americano contribui justamente para ampliar a diversidade de olhares sobre o tema. A linha de pesquisa de Bailis é pouco encontrada entre estudiosos brasileiros. "Isso complementa a nossa pesquisa, tornando esse mapeamento ainda mais diverso e consistente". Bailis ficará a cargo da análise do ciclo de vida das sementes utilizadas na produção agroenergética, com enfoque diferencial para o balanço de carbono e energético dessas oleaginosas, buscando respostas a uma maior sustentabilidade ambiental da produção.

<br /></div>
<br /><b>Olhar brasileiro -</b> "Vamos chegar até os subprodutos das sementes, quais os fatores impactantes ou agregadores na economia, no cultivo, na sociedade", diz Bailis. Para ele, uma das grandes diferenças do estudo da agroenergia no Brasil está na importância dada pelo país às questões sociais, pois a produção ainda está bastante ligada à agricultura familiar. "Nos Estados Unidos, a produção agroenergética está vinculada a grandes empresas, ao agronegócio de larga escala. Basicamente temos o milho e a soja dominados por políticas bastante direcionadas ao investimento econômico; já aqui o rol de possibilidades dessa produção é muito maior e com muitas pessoas dependendo da produtividade. Por isso a atenção à inclusão social", afirma o professor americano.
<br />
<br />A pesquisa, intitulada Cadeias Produtivas Agroenergéticas e Desenvolvimento Territorial no Tocantins: Uma Abordagem Interdisciplinar, inicia no mês de outubro e terá duração de três anos. A iniciativa está ligada ao Mestrado em Desenvolvimento Regional da UFT e foi aprovada pelo Programa de Apoio a Núcleos de Excelência (Pronex), financiado pelo Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) e Governo do Estado.</div></td></tr></tbody></table>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077860662114377737.post-2368362398231920342011-08-15T18:21:00.000-04:002011-08-15T18:22:06.047-04:00Compliance and market exclusion in Brazilian agriculture: Analysis and implications for “soft” governance<div class="articleTitle svTitle"> Compliance and market exclusion in Brazilian agriculture: Analysis and implications for “soft” governance </div> <div class="unentitledMSG"><div class="PPVContainer"><a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ShoppingCartURL&_method=add&_udi=B6VB0-53H7KH9-1&_acct=C000228598&_version=1&_userid=10&_ts=1313446736&md5=60220b17db2a26948be67939705e1fbc"><div class="PPV"><div class="leftPPV"><img class="PPVImage" src="http://www.sciencedirect.com/scidirimg/pdf_icon.gif" /></div><div class="rightPPV"><div class="PPVTextNoPrice">Purchase</div></div></div></a></div> <span id="deepdyve" style="display: none;"> <a id="dd_href" target="DeepDyve" href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264837711000743#"> <img id="dd_img" src="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264837711000743#" /> </a> </span> </div><div style="display: none;" class="refMsg nojs">

Here we identify and analyze two emergent processes, a compliance regime and bioregion-based market exclusion approach, that stand out amid a background of conflicts between agricultural land uses and environmental regulation. We address the effectiveness of “soft” governance, using a framework that focuses on interactions among state and non-state actors, use of geographic information, relations to global processes, and discourse. These policies may play an important role in bridging the divide between environmental and agricultural interests, but market and state actors, and the uneven effects of globalization, will influence effectiveness. Our framework for analyzing governance processes should complement future work that directly measures environmental outcomes.</p> </div></div> <div class="svAbstract"><div style="display: inline;" class="articleText"> <h4 class="h4">Graphical abstract</h4><a name="spar0005"></a><div class="figTblUpiOuter svArticle"><a name="fig0005"></a><a name="1"></a><div class="sizeImgBox"><img src="http://www.sciencedirect.com/cache/MiamiImageURL/B6VB0-53H7KH9-1-6/0?wchp=dGLzVzb-zSkWz" alt="Full-size image" title="Full-size image" class="sizeImg" align="bottom" border="1" hspace="2" vspace="2" />

O artigo responde à pergunta se os biocombustíveis mesmo podem ser consideradas como resposta ao petróleo, e se não fazem parte das mesmas cadeias produtivas. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family:georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;">O resumo original (em inglês) é:<br /></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family:georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><em>The use of biofuels has been justified by high oil prices, geopolitical instability in the countries that control most of the proven oil reserves as well as environmental concerns. Oil majors are responsible for increasing investments into biofuel joint ventures, R&D and logistics. This paper analyses whether the quality and amount of current major oil companies‟ investments in liquid biofuels can be explained by existing technological lock-ins and whether the occurrence of these investments strengthens existing or creates new technological lock-ins that impede alternative technological pathways. Oil major investments are analyzed taking into account increasing difficulties to access conventional oil reserves and the role of biofuel mandates. The paper finds that while oil companies investments in biofuels are significant, existing technological lock-ins generally persist. Integration and diversification are found to be an integral part of oil majors strategic behavior towards biofuels though strategies can differ substantially from company to company.</em><br /></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family:georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Do Nugobio participavam Daniel Fontana Oberling, Prof. Emilio La Rovere e Martin Obermaier.

O desmatamento também está responsável para ciclones mais devastadores na região porque a função de proteção das Sundarbans está cada vez mais ameaçada.

Isso se aplica particularmente para adaptação, pois as comunidades ou regiões mais vulneráveis à mudança do clima frequentemente não são responsáveis pelo problema. Além disso, diferente da mitigação, que é global, adaptação precisa ser feito no local.</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">P</span></span><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">rojetos CBA precisam levar tais diferentes dimensões em conta: inclusão do conhecimento local e gerenciamento participativo, justiça ambiental e social, eficiência econômica e eficácia, inovações locais etc. são ingredientes necessários para gerar processos sustentáveis de adaptação. Tais processos podem englobar décadas para ser realizados.</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Para ampliar estratégias de sucesso em CBA não deve se pensar somente em replicar uma idéia ou um projeto numa outra comunidade, mas também em integrar as experiências nos diferentes níveis de governança e de ação. Ou seja, é importante ampliar horizontal (escala de projetos) e vertical (</span></span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">mainstreaming</span></span></i><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">). Isso mais ainda pelo fato que governos raramente são pioneiros em estratégicas de adaptação ou em outras áreas... Assim, a política não precisa somente de idéias de projetos, mas também precisa-se mostrar como podemos replicar modelos em outras regiões com próprias características.</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Projetos de CBA são frequentemente projetos dispersos, locais e pouco integrados com outras iniciativas ou políticas públicas. Porém, é importante reformular projetos de CBA de forma mais estratégica para reduzir redundâncias e criar sinergias com projetos e políticas existentes.</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Finalmente, não se pode esquecer a mitigação! Somente adaptação vai ser insuficiente e caro para lidar com os impactos da mudança do clima. </span></span></li></ol><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Como vimos na visita de campo não tem falta de projetos inovadores em comunidades locais que conseguem criar resiliência aos problemas atuais até nas regiões mais carentes e vulneráveis. Simples projetos de captação de água doce, sistemas de prevenção de desastres ou divulgação de boas práticas agrícolas já conseguem reduzir a vulnerabilidade local. </span></span><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;"> </span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Porém, as discussões entre os diferentes participantes na excelente conferência também mostravam que permanece incerto se as adaptações incrementais no momento serão suficientes no futuro. Ao final, enquanto a mudança do clima é somente adicional às vulnerabilidades do presente, segundo os modelos do IPCC ela mostrará seu potencial devastador no futuro com maior irregularidade climática e maior frequência de eventos extremos, o que pode anular estratégicas de adaptação hoje chamadas de boas práticas. Somente focando em pequenos passos pode ser insuficiente para uma efetiva e sustentável adaptação.</span></span></p><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;"> </span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">De qualquer modo adaptação à mudança climática demandará soluções holísticas e pesquisas transdisciplinares envolvendo, entre outros, ciências naturais e sociais, sem esquecer da economia assim como a engenharia para lidar com o imenso tamanho do problema. </span></span></p><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;"> </span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Os biocombustíveis podem fazer parte disso? Ainda tem pouco pesquisa em qual medida, por exemplo, o biodiesel a partir da agricultura familiar poderia reduzir vulnerabilidades em “hotspots” climáticos e sociais, como por exemplo o semi-árido nordestino ou na região amazônica.

A metodologia aplicada elaborou a coleta de dados através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e análise documental. Como resultado final, foi elaborado um mapeamento dos principais agentes do setor, concluiu-se também que há tanto redes abertas quanto fechadas que se intersectam e promovem inovações radicais e incrementais.

The report looks at agroenergy policy in the Amazon, and highlights "approaches taken by Brazilian Federal and state governments to consider the social and environmental sustainability of soybean and palm oil production in the Amazon." The traditional biodiesel feedstock has been initially soybean, but recent initiatives have been made for the use of palm oil. Interviews with Brazilian policy officials were conducted to examine the extent to which the "palm oil initiatives" are considered sustainable with regard to social and environmental impacts. The paper mentioned that the biodiesel industry and the federal and state governments are taking into account recent studies, which question the "social and environmental sustainability of the oil palm production model currently being adopted in the Amazon."

Produzida pelo pesquisador Marcus Vinicius Alves Finco, da Universidade Federal do Tocantins, o trabalho foi publicado em dezembro na revista Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical (PAT), da Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG).<br />
<br />
Finco entrevistou produtores rurais em assentamentos de dez municípios da região. Ao analisar as condições econômicas das famílias, ele verificou que no caso da mamona, quanto mais pobres, maior a probabilidade dos agricultores aderirem a cultura. Mas no caso da produção de pinhão-manso, a situação se inverteu: os produtores com melhores recursos tinham maior probabilidade de optar pela nova cultura.<br />
<br />
Uma das explicações do pesquisador para os resultados tem a ver com as características de cada cultura. Segundo Finco, a mamona é uma cultura anual, com contrato ano a ano. Isso permite que os agricultores deixem o negócio caso julguem que ele não é satisfatório. Já o pinhão-manso tem contrato de dez anos, com previsão de viabilidade econômica só a partir do quarto ano. “Quem tem menos recursos é menos propenso a correr riscos”, avalia.<br />
<br />
Os resultados mostram, avalia Finco, que no caso do pinhão-manso a inclusão social que é objetivo do programa de biodiesel brasileiro não está acontecendo porque o estímulo a cultura beneficia as famílias de agricultores com mais recursos. Para o pesquisador, a ausência de tratamento diferenciado para cada cultura prejudicou a efetividade do programa brasileiro de biodiesel e do Selo Combustível Social na promoção da inclusão social de agricultores familiares.<br />
