ENGLISH

    Politics and the Amazon
    (1/14/2008) In terms of environmental conservation, the Amazon is a logistics nightmare. How does Brazil protect 4.2 million square kilometers of forest with a border of 10.938 km?

    Lohnt es sich noch die Regenwälder zu retten? Warum sind sie wichtig?
    (12/4/2007) Die Regenwälder der Welt fallen weiterhin. Macht das wirklich einen Unterschied? Warum sollte es überhaupt jemanden etwas angehen wenn Pflanzen, Tiere, Pilze und Mikroorganismen absterben? Schliesslich sind Regenwälder oft heiß und feucht, sie sind schwer zu erreichen und die Tierwelt ist scheu.

    Earth Day -- der Tag der Erde
    (12/2/2007) In den USA wird heute Earth Day (der Tag der Erde) gefeiert. Es war aber nicht der Tag der Erde der mich dazu veranlasste über die Umwelt nachzudenken. Was mich dazu bewegte diese umweltorientierte Website zu starten war ein persönliches Erlebnis in einem kleinen Regenwald in Borneo.

    Das Ethanol der USA kann zur Abholzung des Amazonas beitragen
    (11/27/2007) Die Ethanolproduktion der Vereinigten Staaten kann zur Abholzung im brasilianischen Regenwald beitragen, sagte ein führender Experte auf dem Gebiet Amazonas.

PORTUGUESE

    Salvando os Orangotangos em Borneo
    (12/4/2007) Mongabay.com promove a apreciação da natureza e dos animais selvagens, quando também examinar o impacto de emergir tender no clima, na tecnologia, na economia, e nas finanças no conservation e no desenvolvimento.

    Ainda vale a pena salvar as florestas tropicais
    (12/2/2007) As florestas tropicais do mundo inteiro continuam a cair. Será que isso realmente faz alguma diferença? Por que qualquer um deveria se importar se algumas plantas, animais, cogumelos, e microorganismos morrem? Afinal, florestas tropicais freqüentemente são quentes e úmidas, difíceis de alcançar, cheias de insetos, e tem animais selvagens que nelas se escondem

    O Etanol americano pode aumentar o desmatamento da Amazônia
    (11/27/2007) De acordo com um dos principais peritos no assunto da Amazônia, a produção de etanol nos Estados Unidos pode contribuir para o desmatamento das florestas tropicais brasileiras.

    O Dia da Terra: Será mais um dia sem valor, cheio de falsas promessas e intenções ou um dia para reflexão?
    (11/22/2007) Hoje é o dia dedicado ao meio ambiente. Você pode encarar este dia como outro 'feriado' que aparece em seu calendário, sem direito a um dia de folga, em que o povo deixa o carro na garagem, e os altos executivos das empresas falam sobre seus projetos para o meio ambiente.
