Título: Análise crítica do mecanismo de desenvolvimento limpo: os interesses brasileiros no contexto global Autor(es): Peter, Débora Alessandra Orientador: Sassi, Roberto Abstract: Nowadays, the imbalance of the greenhouse effect is readily apparent: planet’s average temperature rises, sudden climate changes and the similarity of the climate perceived in the different seasons of the year, interfering in agriculture and other forms of production. Considering the context of climate imbalance, and to create a global mechanisms consensus to contain the harmful effects of global warming, was ratified in 1997, the Kyoto Protocol, currently considered the most important tool in the fight against the harmful effects of climate change . Among the mechanisms under the Protocol is the Clean Development Mechanism - CDM, which allows signatory developed countries to invest in projects to reduce emission or capture of greenhouse effect gases, executed in developing countries, through the purchase certificates of reduction / capture of greenhouse effect gases, crediting the results obtained and computing them to calculate the targets set. Considering that, the CDM is the only alternative that is directly applicable to Brazil as a developing country, which is why it is the object of this study. Through historical research, literature and legislation, the positive and negative aspects of the CDM are identified, in the second one proposing suggestions for improvement. Finally, brazilian interests are treated in the CDM scenario and it is concluded by the efficacy of this mechanism of Kyoto’s Protocol flexibility in front of socioeconomic and ambient aspects, even though it suggests improvements on its instrumentalisation.

Título: Sustentabilidade socioeconômica e ambiental na pesca do caranguejo-uçá (Ucides cordatus Linnaeus, 1763): governança e gestão na RESEX Acaú-Goiana e no estuário do Rio Paraíba Autor(es): Silva, Rayssa Batista da Orientador: Miranda, George Emmanuel Cavalcanti de Abstract: This study analyzes the fishing of the Ucides cordatus crab, focusing on governance, fishing practices, and the sustainability perceptions of fishermen. The first chapter investigates the capture of the Ucides cordatus crab and the related governance in two distinct areas: the Acaú-Goiana Extractive Reserve (EXTRES), a Conservation Unit (CU), and the Paraíba River Estuary, which lacks formal regulation. The research revealed that despite the differences in management models, the predominant capture techniques, such as the "redinha" and "ratoeira," are widely used in both estuaries, reflecting unregulated practices that challenge the sustainability of the fishery resources. The EXTRES, although more administratively organized, faces challenges related to enforcement and fisherman engagement, while the Paraíba River Estuary, without formal regulation, shows more pronounced socioeconomic and environmental vulnerabilities. In the second chapter, the research focuses on the fishermen’s perception of the sustainability of Ucides cordatus crab capture. Interviews with fishermen highlight the importance of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and sustainable practices, such as releasing females and young crabs, to ensure the continuity of fishing and the preservation of mangroves. The research also identified that fishermen consider the mangrove resilient, but face significant challenges, such as the laboriousness of work and criminality in the Paraíba River Estuary. Dependence on middlemen for the commercialization of the crabs was observed as a limiting factor for the fishermen's economic autonomy. The methodology used for data collection involved a qualitative approach, utilizing semistructured interviews with fishermen, local leaders, and environmental managers, as well as direct observations in the fishing areas. The interviews were conducted with a flexible script, allowing exploration of aspects related to fishing sustainability, fishing practices, and governance in both estuaries. Field visits were also conducted to observe the capture techniques and working conditions, as well as the analysis of documents related to the management and regulation of fishing in the studied regions. The results indicate the need for public policies that integrate traditional knowledge with modern management approaches, promote co-management, and encourage more sustainable fishing practices. The research emphasizes the relevance of mangroves as vital ecosystems for biodiversity and the livelihood of local communities, highlighting the urgency of actions that reconcile environmental conservation with socioeconomic development.

Título: Agricultura familiar: sustentabilidade e percepção dos serviços ecossistêmicos em comunidade do agreste paraibano, nordeste do Brasil Autor(es): Miranda, Natália Marques de Almeida Lima Orientador: Cruz, Denise Dias da Abstract: In Brazil, family farming corresponds to 77% of agricultural establishments and supplies most of the food consumed by the population. Most of the farmers produce using unsustainable methods, which increase the production however can impact in the health of workers, of the population, and in the environment. The present study aimed to analyze the level of sustainability and perception of ecosystem services of the family farming activity developed in the Chã de Jardim Community, located in the buffer zone of the Mata do Pau Ferro State Park, in the municipality of Areia, Paraíba (Northeast of Brazil). The community's main activity is the development of family farming and rural tourism. The MESMIS indicator (social, structural and environmental dimensions) was applied, using techniques analysis (to water and soil quality), semi- structural interviews. There were interviewed 26 family farmers. The three dimensions analyzed are partially sustainable. According to the SWOT matrix, high production quality and the strengthening of family farming stand out as strengths and opportunities, and as weaknesses and threats were the low availability of water for irrigation and the lack of Technical Assistance and Rural Extension. The perception of living close to the UC shows advantages related to their well-being, such as better quality of life and disadvantages related to the lack of job opportunities, for example. Regarding ecosystem services, 100% of respondents mentioned provision services as important (water and food). Thermal comfort and air quality were mentioned by most interviewees, however, regulatory services that are fundamental to agricultural practices, such as pollination and nutrient cycling, were rarely mentioned or were not mentioned during the interview. We concluded that ecosystem services are perceived by farmers in a significant way, and can still be expanded, so that better agricultural practices and conscious management of natural resources can be adopted.

Título: A gestão ambiental e o Polo Turístico: uma abordagem sobre desenvolvimento e meio ambiente Autor(es): Pedrosa, Ioman Leite Orientador: Lima, Maria José de Araújo Abstract: The current work stuck to the proposal of installating a touriste Pole on the region of the south-coast, in the city of João Pessoa, state of Paraiba, which was conceived at the end of the 80s, appearing as an economic alternative to the development of the region. Strengthened, by the consolidation of the touristic industry as an activity which presents high levels of increase, standing out, lately, the ecotourism segment, the project fits in the line of finance established by BID/BNB/PRODETUR, which emphasis in its basic structure and utilities. In an area of, about, 506ha, the aim was to emphasize the presence of its beautiful sight, framed by a relatively well preserved and environment where the procedures consequent of man's presence are not very significant, standing out the Atlantic Forest and, other associated ecossistem (sand bank, mangrove swamp, lagoon, embouchure); the FALESIAS and beautiful beaches. In fact a whole natural join which is to require the adoption of urgent measures, in sense to control the process of ocuppating the region, searching for an harmonious society between the development and the environment, with sights, above all, to the maintenance of the environment hentage and improvement of the social benefits. The magnitude of the project and, on the other hand, the environmental management, which incorporates in essence preventive features, where, whith solidarity, are responsible the public authorities and civil society. The environmental management commended in this work is foudated in the Instruments/Principles of National Politics of Environmental, directly related to the area of the Cabo Branco Touristic Pole, concluding by the incompatibility between the current proposal of using the ground in zones, and the environmental situation required by the region. It is suggested, finally, that the project should be redimensioned and directed to the practice of ecologic tourism, with the priority of installating hotels, which real and major benefits arise, certainly, from the richness contained in the privileged nature.
