    Análisis Socio-Espacial de la Cuenca Hidrográfica Superficial del Río Quíbú Dr. Isabel Valdivia Fernández Dr. Arturo Rúa de Cabo Lic. Rafael Rodríguez García Facultad de Geografía Universidad de La Habana [email protected] [email protected] INTRODUCCIÓN Desde la Cumbre de Río de Janeiro en el año 1992 hasta nuestros días, el mundo ha sido testigo de un intenso repuntar de la conciencia ambiental, manifestada en la proliferación de grupos y organizaciones de toda índole, la creación de un sin número de instituciones públicas y privadas dedicadas al tema, la celebración de innumerables conferencias, talleres y reuniones y la aprobación de cientos de leyes y reglamentos en todo el mundo, e incluso de diversos convenios ambientales internacionales. Pero lamentablemente, es también en esta etapa donde se han incrementado todas las tendencias negativas para el medio ambiente, siendo las guerras un ejemplo muy claro de maltrato al medio ambiente y, en especial, a la especie humana, dicotomía que pone en tela de juicio la efectividad del despliegue de las acciones antes señaladas, que se han movido básicamente en los ámbitos institucionales y legales sin lograr una repercusión real en el estado del medio ambiente. (Santos, O., 2002) Ciertamente, la alteración de las condiciones naturales de vida es una consecuencia indispensable del desarrollo social de la humanidad. Es también cierto que no siempre el hombre estableció de modo correcto sus relaciones con la naturaleza y todo indica que diversas sociedades, desde la antigüedad, pueden haber sucumbido o al menos adelantado su colapso por esta razón. Sin embargo, es un hecho que esos casos y procesos aislados no son en modo alguno comparables con el carácter global y urgente que hoy caracteriza al fenómeno ambiental.

The Cuban government's response to the food and fuel shortage was to implement a unique national program to increase food production. A vital part of this program was the development of the Department of Urban Agriculture, which has helped to rapidly increase numbers of farms and gardens within the city of Havana. Many governmental and nongovernmental programs have been successful in helping to increase urban food production, as well as to increase awareness about environmental sustainability and promoting community greening programs. Despite the fact that Cuba's move toward sustainability in urban neighborhoods was motivated by economic desperation, that does not discredit either its success or its leadership role in working toward environmental sustainability in the city of Havana. As the world approaches the year 2000, faced with Included in this process has been a movement to rapid population growth, increasing numbers of urban increase food production within cities, so that they dwellers, eroding farmlands and other forms of may become less dependent on rural areas for food environmental crises, the issue of sustainability is sources, perhaps even becoming a living model for a discussed more often in public circles, both locally subject talked about so often in the abstract, the idea and internationally.

  • En El Municipio Boyeros
    65 REV CUBANA MED TROP 2010;62(1):65-7 COMUNICACIONES BREVES UNIDAD MUNICIPAL DE VIGILANCIA Y LUCHA ANTIVECTORIAL Presencia larval de Anopheles albimanus (Diptera: Culicidae) en el municipio Boyeros Vivian Valdés Miró1 y María del Carmen Marquetti Fernández2 RESUMEN INTRODUCCIÓN: la malaria fue erradicada en Cuba en 1967, sin embargo, por causa de la recrudescencia de esta enfermedad en el mundo y la afluencia del personal que proviene de áreas endémicas, hace que Cuba no esté exenta de una reintroducción. OBJETIVOS: determinar la presencia de Anopheles albimanus (principal vector de la malaria) en sitios de crías permanentes y temporales en un municipio de la provincia de Ciudad de la Habana, Cuba. MÉTODOS: el trabajo se realizó en el municipio Boyeros durante 2008. La frecuencia de muestreo fue semanal. Los criaderos permanentes encuestados fueron: presas, lagunas naturales, lagunas de oxidación, zanjas, pozos absorbentes, zanjas de activación, tanques Inhoff, arroyos, ríos y como temporales charcos. RESULTADOS: se muestreó un total de 466 sitios positivos a An. albimanus. El mayor número de criaderos correspondió al área Mulgoba con 114 y la menor a Capdevila con 30; noviembre fue el mes con mayor cantidad de criaderos positivos con 72 mientras que abril fue el de menor con 16. Se hallaron valores similares en el número de sitios con este mosquito en las 2 épocas (seca y lluvia), con 234 y 232, respectivamente. CONCLUSIONES: se encontró presencia de An. albimanus en sitios de cría permanentes existentes en el municipio Boyeros en todas las áreas y durante todo el año; por lo que mantener una alerta constante debe ser una de las medidas prioritarias dentro del sistema de vigilancia de la malaria en esta área.
