Before Personality: Character Assessment and Its Troubled History

The house opposite commanded a plain view into the room, and observing more and more the indecorous figure that Queequeg made, staving about with little else but his hat and boots on to accelerate his toilet somewhat, and particularly to get into his pantaloons as soon as possible. He complied, and then proceeded to wash himself. He then donned his waistcoat, and taking up a piece of hard soap on the wash-stand center table, dipped it into water and commenced lathering his face. Where he kept his razor, when lo and behold, he takes the harpoon.

Caatinga: um bioma exclusivamente brasileiro

Hoje é o Dia da Caatinga, a única floresta 100% brasileira que compõe os belos cenários nordestinos.

Predominante na região nordeste, a Caatinga é o bioma de clima semiárido com a maior biodiversidade do mundo e o único encontrado exclusivamente em território nacional. Sua flora e fauna chamam atenção por abrigarem cerca de 5.300 espécies de plantas, sendo 1.547 exclusivas dessa região, e mais de 1.000 espécies de animais, entre eles a ararinha-azul, ave com maior risco de extinção do Brasil.

Ainda que sua área corresponda a 11% do território nacional e 70% da região nordeste, 45% da paisagem da floresta já foi devastada pela ação do homem e cerca de 15% sofre risco de desertificação pelo alto grau de degradação.

 

 

Como forma de preservar o bioma, aproximadamente 9% de sua área está protegida em Unidades de Conservação, sendo essa uma das formas
de Compensação de Reserva Legal na Caatinga.

O dia desta importante floresta, celebrado no dia 28 de abril, foi criado para conscientizar a todos sobre a importância da conservação e do
uso sustentável de suas riquezas.

Sua propriedade rural está localizada nesse bioma e tem déficit de Reserva Legal?
Saiba agora como regularizar e contribuir para a conservação da Caatinga sem perder áreas produtivas! 

 

 

Sustainable Forest Management of the Jari Amapá REDD+ Project and the maintenance of the biodiversity of fauna

Monitoring of the biodiversity performed in the project indicates that the results found for fauna in the areas of sustainable forest management are similar to those of the primary (virgin) forests

 

Designed to generate positive impacts to the climate, community and biodiversity, the activities of the REDD+ projects are constantly monitored, so that they may be enhanced and to prevent them from having the inverse effect. It was in 2019 the time to assess the biodiversity monitoring results in the zone of the Jari Amapá REDD+ project.

Sustainable forest management is a productive activity that involves rational exploration of the forest, with the intention of generating economic and social benefits with the least environmental impact, so that the forest may be recovered after exploration and may continue to provide ecosystem services. In face of this, one of the main results obtained in the study refers to conservation of the fauna, which is essential for maintenance and functionality of the forest. Data showed that the managed forests, due to good practices used, maintained a diversity of birds similar to that of the primary forest, with differences only in the abundance of some species.

Good results were also obtained for large and medium-sized mammals, regardless of whether the richness of the species may have been greater in primary forest areas. Based on the records, forest management did not affect the composition and the relative abundance of most of the species, even though the fauna community is well established, since the food chain’s top carnivores, such as the jaguar and the ocelot, were observed. Moreover, potential seed dispensing species were found, which are essential in ecological and recovery processes of the forest.

The existence of primary forests associated to forest management areas showed to be an excellent arrangement for maintenance of biodiversity of fauna, mainly for species barely tolerant to human presence or to forest disturbance. Likewise, the similarities found between the native and managed forests indicate that the management protocols have been efficient and comply with the main role of contributing with the region’s sustainable development and of preserving the local biodiversity.

Collaborate so that REDD+ projects may continue to make the difference for our planet.

Dia da Terra:
50 anos depois estamos no caminho de salvar o nosso planeta?

Comemorada no dia 22 de abril, a data tem como objetivo ser um momento de reflexão sobre a importância de cuidarmos do meio ambiente.

Há 50 anos, os impactos das ações humanas na natureza já eram pautas de debates. Sabendo que algo precisava ser feito para começar a reverter a situação para o bem das futuras gerações, o senador norte-americano Gaylord Nelson teve a iniciativa de criar o Dia da Terra como forma de chamar atenção para as preocupações ambientais.

Na época, as manifestações mobilizaram milhões de pessoas, motivando a criação de diversas leis de proteção ao meio ambiente. Mas, ainda assim, não foi o suficiente para que mudanças significativas fossem implementadas por governos e empresas.

A poluição urbana, geração de lixo e resíduos e altas taxas históricas de desmatamento são alguns dos principais responsáveis pela emergência climática que estamos vivemos nos anos recentes.

 

 

Onde estamos hoje no caminho para salvar o nosso planeta?

A cada ano, as reflexões incentivadas pelo Dia da Terra, juntamente com outras iniciativas, surtem mais efeito. O momento é de mudança de comportamento, seja no estilo de vida, redução de emissões, hábitos de consumo, preocupação com o descarte de lixo, as pessoas estão se tornando mais conscientes que a hora de agir é agora.

Nesse caminho, cada pequena atitude conta.
Mas, uma solução de largo impacto está em proteger nossas florestas e seus reservatórios de carbono que ainda sofrem muitas ameaças. Por isso, a Biofílica Investimentos Ambientais concentra seus esforços em conservação florestal a partir dos nossos projetos REDD+, peças fundamentais com resultados notórios no combate ao desmatamento, na conservação da biodiversidade e no desenvolvimento socioeconômico das comunidades locais onde atuamos.

1,2 milhões de hectares de floresta conservados
340 espécies de flora e 1.200 espécies de animais protegidos
1.500 pessoas impactadas pelos projetos

 

Seja parte da mudança, incentive a sua empresa a investir em nossos projetos REDD+ e ajude a conservar a Amazônia, a maior florestas tropical do planeta. Fale com o nosso time e saiba mais sobre os nossos Projetos REDD+

 

Compra em Unidade de Conservação: o que é?

Quando é utilizada uma área de vegetação natural protegida pelo poder púbico para compensar o déficit de Reserva Legal em imóveis rurais, a modalidade em que essa compensação se enquadra é a compra em UC.

O que são as UCs?

As Unidades de Conservação (UC) são áreas naturais passíveis de proteção pelo poder público, seja ele municipal, estadual ou federal, por suas características naturais e recursos ambientais instituídas como características especiais.

Essas áreas são preservadas com o objetivo de conservar o patrimônio ecológico do país, perpetuando porções significativas de diferentes ecossistemas do território nacional e garantindo o uso de forma racional dos recursos naturais, ao mesmo tempo que proporciona o desenvolvimento de atividades econômicas sustentáveis das populações do entorno.

Existem diversos tipos de UCs, que possuem diferentes objetivos e tipos de atividades permitidas na área. Elas podem ser Unidades de Proteção Integral, como Estações Ecológicas, Parques Nacionais e Monumentos Naturais, ou Unidades de Uso Sustentável, como Áreas de Proteção Ambiental, Florestas Nacionais e Reservas Particulares de Patrimônio Natural.

 

Unidade de Conservação

 

Quero regularizar o meu imóvel adquirindo áreas em UC. O que devo saber?

O imóvel deve estar localizado dentro de um UC de domínio público, seja ele federal, estadual ou municipal que esteja pendente de regularização fundiária.
Como em todas as modalidades, a área a ser compensada deve ser equivalente em tamanho e estar no mesmo bioma. Se a área de interesse se adequa nessas condições, é feito um pagamento único (R$/hectare) e a reserva legal ficará perpetuamente averbada na matrícula do imóvel com déficit.

Uma vez que a área é doada para fins de compensação de reserva legal, o órgão ambiental competente fica responsável pela manutenção da área de vegetação nativa.

Como está previsto na lei, a modalidade está disponível apenas para compra e o valor de comercialização de cada área deverá variar de acordo com o bioma, estado, entre outros fatores de mercado.

Quer regularizar sua propriedade rural por meio da compra de áreas em Unidade de Conservação? Temos áreas disponíveis para todos os estados e biomas.  Converse com o nosso time!
