In the face of the multiple environmental and social crises largely caused by the predatory behavior of human beings in their habitat, the main challenge that the human species must deal with is to build and nurture sustainable human communities so that their ways of inhabiting do not interfere with nature’s inherent ability to sustain life. This study aimed to elucidate counter-hegemonic contemporary housing constructs experienced in Intentional Communities (IC) that demonstrate ecological awareness in their ways of inhabiting. For this purpose, three case studies were selected that present international relevance in their ways of life by proposing ways of inhabiting that are alternative to mainstream society and configure different scenarios of project implementation and scale, such as Findhorn in Scotland, Auroville in India, and Christie Walk in Australia. The discussion sought to highlight similarities and differences in the ways of inhabiting experienced in each IC analyzed, besides proposing a correlation with ecological principles to emphasize the potential of such constructs for the resilience and sustainability of contemporary urban habitat. The results of this paper contribute to studies that propose a new epistemological approach to architecture from a systemic perspective, especially to studies dedicated to IC settlements whose underlying intention is to promote the equilibrium of the human in his habitat.

This article aims to provide an overview of the current state of utilizing glass in the production of artifacts for civil construction. Specifically focusing on glass waste, existing literature presents numerous studies indicating the technical feasibility of incorporating glass into products used in the civil construction field, as discussed in the development of this material. This study conducted a comprehensive literature review to report the latest advancements in the post-use glass chain, primarily emphasizing reuse and integration into civil construction artifacts while discussing the advantages and disadvantages of this process. The reviewed works were sourced from databases such as Scielo, Science Direct, Periódicos Capes, etc. The utilization of glass waste in the production of civil construction artifacts holds great promise, as it allows for the substitution of a portion of both fine and coarse aggregates. Therefore, the incorporation of glass contributes to various aspects, particularly in addressing environmental concerns. The main observed factors that influence the physical and chemical characteristics include the particle size distribution of the glass, the quantity of glass used, and the moisture content of the mixture. The utilization of glass waste in different particle sizes demonstrates an increase in pozzolanic activity as the particle size decreases, with the physical properties of the resulting products being more significantly affected by particle size rather than the quantity of waste used in concrete or mortar.

With the 2030 Agenda, the nations that ratified the Paris Agreement have taken steps towards achieving Sustainable Development. Certain strategies have been identified as determining factors to meet the goals outlined in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Number 11. In this context, consolidated cities have buildings that do not meet contemporary needs, being, in many cases, underutilized or in obsolescence integral. This article examines two case studies: the Pruitt-Igoe residential complex built in the city of St. Louis, in the USA and the Wilton Paes de Almeida building, built in the city of São Paulo, in Brazil. Both examples of modern architecture were lost in the context of contemporary metropolises. The study discusses the retrofitting of these urban structures of the metropolises, in the perspective of the 2030 Agenda, highlighting the need to expand the measures of rehabilitation of buildings as a strategy for a Sustainable Development, in order also to reduce the existing idleness built in the areas centers with the use of existing resources and reduce the spread of the urban area that assigns the extremes to the most vulnerable in the context of the São Paulo metropolis. With this analysis, the article seeks to demonstrate that investment in in retrofitting techniques can be a favorable alternative to Sustainable Development and the regeneration of metropolises.
通过 2030 年议程,批准《巴黎协定》的国家为实现可持续发展采取了措施。某些战略已被确定为实现可持续发展目标(SDG)第 11 项目标的决定性因素。在此背景下,综合城市中的建筑已不能满足当代需求,在许多情况下,这些建筑利用率低下或已整体报废。本文研究了两个案例:美国圣路易斯市的 Pruitt-Igoe 住宅区和巴西圣保罗市的 Wilton Paes de Almeida 大楼。这两座现代建筑都在当代大都市的背景下消失了。本研究从《2030 年议程》的角度讨论了这些大都市城市建筑的改造问题,强调有必要扩大建筑改造措施,将其作为可持续发展的一项战略,以便利用现有资源减少中心地区现有的闲置建筑,并减少圣保罗大都市中最弱势人群所处的极端城市地区的蔓延。通过上述分析,文章试图证明对改造技术的投资可以成为可持续发展和大都市复兴的有利选择。

The Florianópolis Museum is located in the former building of the Casa de Câmara e Cadeia of the city, presenting colonial features, and later, in the early twentieth century, eclectic mentions were included. The objective of the article was to analyze the building of the Florianópolis Museum in relation to the form and the sensorial perceptions, through two on-site visits referencing the theories of Pallasma, for the analysis of sensorial perceptions; and Clark and Pause for the analysis of the form of the built environment and its influence on perceptions. For the Museum, the importance of the contrast between light and shade to highlight ornaments or to make the environment more intimate was perceived; of natural materials that allow an understanding of the finitude of life and the "passing of time"; of sounds and smells that recall a memory; of symmetry for the understanding of the space as a whole and of robustness for the propagation of sounds and the sensation of silence, as well as the importance of different textures for the composition of the building. Based on the analyses, it was found that there is a correlation between perception, form and function of the building, however, these are individual sensations and experiences. The experience of the collective influences the individuality of the being, as much as the choices of each one modify the collective scenario.
弗洛里亚诺波利斯博物馆坐落于弗洛里亚诺波利斯市市政厅(Casa de Câmara e Cadeia)的旧址上,具有殖民时期的特征,后来在二十世纪初又加入了折衷主义的元素。文章的目的是通过两次实地考察,参考帕拉斯马(Pallasma)的理论分析感官感受,克拉克(Clark)和帕斯(Pause)的理论分析建筑环境的形式及其对感受的影响,从形式和感官感受两个方面对弗洛里亚诺波利斯博物馆的建筑进行分析。对博物馆而言,明暗对比的重要性在于突出装饰物或使环境更加亲切;天然材料的重要性在于让人理解生命的有限性和 "时间的流逝";声音和气味的重要性在于唤起记忆;对称性的重要性在于让人理解空间的整体性,坚固性的重要性在于声音的传播和安静的感觉,以及不同质地对于建筑构成的重要性。根据分析发现,建筑的感知、形式和功能之间存在关联,但这些都是个人的感觉和体验。集体的体验会影响个体的存在,就像每个人的选择会改变集体的情景一样。

This article critically approaches our anthropocentric relationship with the planet and raises alternatives to think about cosmopolitical regulations and utopias as potentialities for the reestablishment of the planet's equilibrium. To do so, it is necessary to understand the Earth as a living organism, Gaia, as in fact various peoples and cultures already recognize it. We try to imagine how other worlds, other ways of living and relating to other beings and natural elements would be possible. We thus aim to think about, question, and eventually regulate the rights of nature and its relations with health and spirituality in the appropriation and production of social space, of living spaces. In spite of the advances observed in Latin America in the regulation of society/nature relations, Brazil is still characterized by an anthropocentric legislation that references human domination over other beings and elements. The apparent advances in the line of ecological modernization, or 'green stamps', in fact do not address the issues and causes that determine or contribute to the destruction of the planet, or even to the threats posed today to all organisms, including Gaia herself. Cosmopolitical regulations and utopias can be empowered to achieve other ways of life, changing the hegemonic anthropocentric perspective to an ecocentric approach, and perhaps even changing the dominant materialist paradigm to a new paradigm that recognizes the spiritual-materialist dialectical relationship and the necessary sacralization of everyday life.

The brazilian urbanization was marked by the center-periphery cleavage; however, changed from end the 20th century XX due to the spread of gated communities. These are closed spaces for housing, work, leisure, consumption and business, which are characterized by a defensive architecture, are walled and turned inwards, with sophisticated security systems that separate two social universes: the internal, restricted to the richest, and the external, associated with the violence and the poor population. This paper analyzes the gated communities in countryside cities of São Paulo, addressing the reasons that led to their diffusion – from the effects of the fear narrative to the dynamics of the real estate market – and their harmful urban and social consequences. The gated communities contradict the ideals of modern urban life, marked by diversity, anonymous encounters and the appreciation of public space as a sphere of exercise of citizenship rights. The analysis demonstrates that in the selected cities (Ribeirão Preto, Jundiaí and Bauru) the spread of closed urbanizations for residential use increased socio-spatial segregation, delimiting fragmented territories that obstruct free movement and increase social inequalities, in open contradiction with the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda (New Urban Agenda) of the United Nations (UN).

The development of smart and sustainable cities is becoming a real necessity for Brazilian municipalities. As such, the objective of this article was to present the concept of smart cities, as well as the guidelines proposed by the Brazilian Charter for Smart Cities. Subsequently, the Regulatory Sandbox in cities is presented. It is an instrument proposed in the Charter and regulated by Federal Complementary Law No. 182/2021, and can also be installed in Brazilian municipalities, through temporary Government authorization. Its institution aims to develop innovative business models and test new technologies, with a view not only to improving the quality of life of its population but also as an instrument to be used to actively participate in the construction of a smart city. In this way, the analysis of the scientific and academic production carried out about the Regulatory Sandbox in Brazil was decided upon. The methodology used was analytical research, through literature review. The results showed that digital transformation is a fundamental change in cities and, the institution of a Sandbox model is a secure way to test and validate resource-saving technologies.

This essay presents a reflection on the negative consequences that have been affecting riverside communities on the Tapajós River resulting from the transport of commodities on barges. Faced with situations that are as or more harmful to the survival of the riverside population, space was opened to analyze other harmful actions that are substantially affecting the indigenous population, due to the increase in the movement of vessels to meet the demand of agribusiness which, in some way, encourages the criminal transport of wood, resulting from illegal deforestation and contributes to the flow of gold, produced mainly by illegal mining, in addition to the drug trafficking movement, facilitated by streams that disorient control systems and transform the Amazon basin into a transshipment area to give flow to cocaine produced in neighboring countries. The dichotomy that exists today in the context of Amazonian territorial planning justifies the interest in researching how these riverside communities have survived, circumstantially removed from their habitat in socioeconomic conditions that are not favorable to the adaptations imposed by capital. Thus, it is being discussed, objectively, human actions aimed at mitigating the damage that has been caused in the areas covered by Lower Tapajós.

The growth of agricultural production and the internalization of the industrial sector has led to a significant increase in the populations of small and medium-sized towns in the Midwest region of Brazil. This movement increases the demand for a built environment and promotes the anthropization of the landscape in these cities, altering the ecosystem in general, but especially the local microclimate. This study therefore aims to map and classify the urban perimeter of the municipality of Nova Mutum, located in the north of the state of Mato Grosso, using the Local Climate Zones (LCZ) methodology. To this end, the area studied was divided into 500x500 meter quadrants, which, using satellite images made available, by Google Earth Pro, were analyzed individually, taking into account elements such as densification, land cover and verticalization. Once the existing zones in the study area had been identified, a Climate Zones map was generated, which was analyzed and cross-referenced with data from the municipal urban legislation. As a result, the municipality has an urban perimeter considerably larger than the area occupied by the urban network, so that a large part of the perimeter is occupied by agricultural production, classified as LCZ D, with herbaceous vegetation. In addition, the municipality already has areas of verticalization and medium-sized densification, mainly in the central zones, which requires attention from the public authorities and local urban planning due to the generation of urban heat islands.

This study therefore aims to map and classify the urban perimeter of the municipality of Nova Mutum, located in the north of the state of Mato Grosso, using the Local Climate Zones (LCZ) methodology. To this end, the area studied was divided into 500x500 meter quadrants, which, using satellite images made available, by Google Earth Pro, were analyzed individually, taking into account elements such as densification, land cover and verticalization. Once the existing zones in the study area had been identified, a Climate Zones map was generated, which was analyzed and cross-referenced with data from the municipal urban legislation. As a result, the municipality has an urban perimeter considerably larger than the area occupied by the urban network, so that a large part of the perimeter is occupied by agricultural production, classified as LCZ D, with herbaceous vegetation. In addition, the municipality already has areas of verticalization and medium-sized densification, mainly in the central zones, which requires attention from the public authorities and local urban planning due to the generation of urban heat islands.","PeriodicalId":250730,"journal":{"name":"Revista Nacional de Gerenciamento de Cidades","volume":"43 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138595333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents the a study about the emission of greenhouse gases - GHG resulting from the final disposal of urban solid waste - USW in the State of Pará. The research was qualitative and quantitative, applied in nature and with exploratory and descriptive objectives, having as object of study the solid waste sector in the State of Pará. The activities carried out were divided into 3 stages, with the verification of the amount of GHG emissions in the State of Pará (Stage 1), the contribution of the sectors responsible for the state's emissions (Stage 2) and the analysis of GHG emissions in the USW sector (Stage 3). The survey results show that Pará is the state that emits the most GHG in Brazil (447,927,368 tons of CO2e). Although the USW sector accounts for only 1% of GHG, it was found that 138 of the 144 municipalities in Pará still send USW to dumps and controlled landfills. With the research, it was verified the need to adapt the environmentally-appropriate final destination of USW, as an alternative to reduce GHG emissions in the State of Pará.
