Are Climate Geoengineering Technologies Being Patented? An Overview

Efforts to address anthropogenic climate change have been focused sensibly on mitigation and adaptation. However, given the difficulties in the implementation of a rapid global mitigation process, increasing attention is being given to geoengineering as a way to countervail some of the climate change impacts.

Povoados abertos do Bronze Final no Médio e Baixo Guadiana

Nos últimos quatro anos, trabalhos de investigação, conjugados com outros de carácter preventivo, permitiram redefinir o conhecimento existente sobre o Bronze Final do Sudoeste Peninsular, em particular na área ocupada pela bacia do Médio Guadiana, em ambas as margens do rio, no território alentejano. De facto, a par do já assinalado povoamento de altura, com ou sem fortificações, registam-se ocupações de planí...

Almost 25 years after Dees’ article on the meaning of social entrepreneurship, conceptual controversy persists. Based on a qualitative analysis of 209 definitions of social entrepreneurship and respective academic articles, we argue that the concept follows a family resemblance structure and identify the 12 distinct attributes that comprehensively define it. Membership in social entrepreneurship is not defined ...

In tandem with these policies, different initiatives, particularly on both sides of the Atlantic, have emerged to provide valuable data for environmental management such as the concept of essenti...

The Six Critical Determinants That May Act as Human Sustainability Boundaries o...

Significant advances have been achieved in multilateral negotiations regarding human development and environmental safeguarding since the 1972 UN Stockholm Conference. There is much greater global awareness and action towards sustainability. However, sustainability has persistently been sidelined, leading to the identification and definition of a transgressed “safe and just space for humanity”. Here we develop ...

Increased policy ambition is needed to avoid the effects of climate change and ...

The Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming hinges on forest carbon sequestration as a key in several national strategies. However, Portugal’s rising forest fire occurrences threaten its ability to meet ambitious 2030 and 2050 carbon sequestration targets. Considering fire and forest trends, this study aims to quantify whether Portugal can reach its carbon sequestration ambitions as stated in its 2030...
