Climatology is one of the most advanced scientific areas in recent decades. The confluence of factors related to scientific and technological evolution can explain it. Satellite technology has allowed a remarkable increase in data availability and accuracy. Besides, computer science has made possible the evolution of increasingly complex, consistent and capable of treating large databases models, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The results have been more reliable day after day, permitting scenarios’ reproduction and discovering trends for more informed decision making. Proof of this advance is a recent article written by Tellman et al., (2021). The manuscript presents available data from flooded areas between 2000-2018 (with a resolution of 250m), identifying an affected area of 2.23 million km2 and 255 to 290 million people directly impacted by these events worldwide. It represents an increase of 58 to 86 million people between 2000 and 2015, number ten times higher than estimated by other studies. The Global Flood Database1 created by these researchers should help identify, among several impacts, the most vulnerable areas and those with a greater need for adaptative measures, especially concerning climate change.

The study aims to analyze the University Social Responsibility (USR) policy implemented at the Michoacan State University (Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo - UMSNH) from the perspective of the university community. For that purpose, a Structural Equations Model in its variant of Partial Least Squares (PLS) was used from a theoretical/empirical construct on the USR. Five variables integrated into 17 indicators were used, obtained by a representative sample. The results are presented in two sections; a) USR performance at the UMSNH and; b) the role of each variable in the PLS model. It is concluded that the performance was regular and the Internal Management (IM) had a key impact on the model operation. In the management practice, this might help identify areas to improve the performance of this policy by sector and variables.
本研究旨在从大学社区的角度分析米却肯州立大学(universsidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo - UMSNH)实施的大学社会责任(USR)政策。为此，从USR的理论/经验结构中使用了偏最小二乘(PLS)的结构方程模型。使用5个变量整合到17个指标中，通过代表性样本获得。结果分为两部分;a) UMSNH下的USR性能;b)每个变量在PLS模型中的作用。结果表明，模型的运行是有规律的，内部管理对模型的运行起着关键作用。在管理实践中，这可能有助于根据部门和变量确定改进该政策绩效的领域。

Objective: Analyze comparatively the sustainability of menus developed by two university restaurants (UR) in the State of Paraná using the water footprint (WF) and the opinion of diners as parameters. Methods: WF was calculated based on 46 menus in each unit and data on diners through questionnaires for 750 people analyzed with Mann Whitney and Pearson’s chi-square. Results: The highest WF averages were from omnivorous menus compared to vegetarians and UR2 had averages higher than UR1. As for the opinion of diners about UR1, there is greater satisfaction with prices, vegetarian options, and greater knowledge about organic and purchases of family farming (FF) products. Conclusions: Therefore, RU1 is closer to the assumptions of a sustainable diet than UR2, but both should review their menus concerning WF and carry out work with diners on food and sustainability.

The purpose of this article is to carry out a content analysis around the historical influence of ancient societies’ ideas regarding sustainable water management. Ancient civilizations developed models and practices for the drainage, intake and transport of rainwater and wastewater. Despite the Roman Empire and the Moorish domination, Lisbon maintained its characteristics until the formation of the Kingdom of Portugal, undergoing an urban and sanitary revolution, which lasted until the 19th Century, when the Portuguese Royal Family moved to Brazil. Rio de Janeiro was chosen as the capital of the Kingdom of Portugal, undergoing several alterations inherited from the models and practices of irrigation techniques, hydraulic engineering and architecture of Lisbon. Data compilation in electronic spreadsheets and the use of NVivo software facilitated organizing the information and conclude that sustainable management models can be replicated as an inheritance of ancient societies.

Farmers’ markets represent a growing strategy for the generation of food sovereignty and sustainability; however, little is known about their impacts in economic, social and environmental terms. The objective of this research was to develop a framework that would allow determining that impact. The resulting methodological framework includes 20 indicators divided into seven groups: proximity, profitability, perceived benefits, areas of opportunity, economic impact, social impact, and environmental impact. This methodology was applied in one agroecological farmers’ market in Mexico City. Among the results, the main benefits are linked to socioeconomic interaction, while environmental impact indicators are the least considered. This methodology can guide the design, implementation, comparison, and monitoring of this type of initiative in the medium and long term. El marco metodológico resultante está compuesto por 20 indicadores distribuidos en siete grupos: indicadores de proximidad, rentabilidad, beneficios percibidos, áreas de oportunidad, impacto económico, impacto social e impacto ambiental. Esta metodología puede constituir una guía para orientar la política pública en el diseño, puesta en marcha, comparación y monitoreo de este tipo de iniciativas a mediano y largo plazo.
农贸市场是实现粮食主权和可持续性的一种日益增长的战略;然而，人们对它们在经济、社会和环境方面的影响知之甚少。这项研究的目的是制定一个能够确定这种影响的框架。由此产生的方法框架包括20个指标，分为7组:邻近性、盈利能力、感知效益、机会领域、经济影响、社会影响和环境影响。该方法应用于墨西哥城的一个农业生态农贸市场。在研究结果中，主要的效益与社会经济互动有关，而环境影响指标被考虑得最少。这种方法可以在中期和长期内指导这种类型的计划的设计、实现、比较和监视。El marco metodológico resultante estcompuesto por 20个指标分布在不同的组中:指标de proximidad, rentabilidad，受益者percibidos， áreas de opportunities, impact económico, impact social和impact environmental。Esta metodología puede constituir una guía para orientar la política pública en el diseño, puesta en marcha, comparación y monitoreo de este tipo de iciativas a mediano y large plaza。

Resenha do livro "Fronteira Cerado: Sociedade e Natureza no Oeste do Brasil", organizado por Sandro Dutra e Silva, José Paulo Pietrafesa, José Luiz Andrade Franco, José Augusto Drummond e Giovana Galvão Tavares. A obra utiliza o conceito de "fronteira" para aglutinar artigos relacionados à sociedade e à natureza do Cerrado. A publicação é uma continuação da parceira que deu origem, em 2012, ao livro "História Ambiental: fronteiras, recursos naturais e conservação da natureza". No conjunto, trata-se de uma coletânea bastante diversificada, em termos de abordagens, cujo eixo articulador refere-se à s dinâmicas de ocupação, enfrentamentos e disputas em torno do Cerrado. O livro é recomendado a pesquisadores interessados sobre a História e o Ambiente do bioma Cerrado, ou seja, sua História Ambiental.
由Sandro Dutra e Silva, jose Paulo Pietrafesa, jose Luiz Andrade Franco, jose Augusto Drummond和Giovana galvao Tavares组织的《Fronteira Cerado:巴西西部的社会和自然》一书的评论。该作品使用“边界”的概念来收集与塞拉多的社会和性质有关的文章。这本书是2012年出版的《环境历史:边界、自然资源和自然保护》一书的延续。总的来说，就方法而言，这是一个非常多样化的集合，其轴心是指塞拉多周围的占领、对抗和争端的动态。这本书推荐给对塞拉多生物群落的历史和环境感兴趣的研究人员，即它的环境历史。

O tema da sustentabilidade é bastante abrangente, polêmico e multifacetado, especialmente quando se assume a existência de divergências sobre seus significados, como praticá-la, ou mesmo se é materializável ou apenas ideologia. Pontos de vista e abordagens distintas conduzem a diferentes mecanismos para a operacionalização e a consequentes resultados diversos da sustentabilidade. Esse texto tem por objetivo analisar a construção discursiva e de práticas associadas à noção de sustentabilidade no contexto da pecuária bovina brasileira. O artigo fundamenta-se em pesquisa bibliográfica em diversas fontes, desde artigos mais teóricos, passando por relatórios de conferências sobre meio ambiente até textos técnicos e estudos de casos que relacionam a pecuária bovina e os impactos ambientais. Evidenciou-se a institucionalização tecnocrática de “modelos estratégicos” chamados de “pecuária sustentável”, que são distintos entre si, na natureza e forma e, principalmente, nas prioridades e mecanismos de efetivação.
