Academic Editor: Tan Yigitcanlar Received: 22 December 2014 / Accepted: 3 February 2015 / Published: 11 February 2015 Abstract: The social dimension of the transition to a low carbon economy is a key challenge to cities. The establishment of local energy initiatives (LEIs) has recently been attracting attention. It is of great importance to draw lessons from best practices when LEIs have been facilitated by local governments and made a substantial contribution to greening local energy systems. The main research questions in this paper are: What lessons can be drawn from successful local low carbon energy transition cases, and which strategies proved successful to support LEIs? We have used analytical notions from the Strategic Niche Management (SNM) and grassroots innovation literature to analyze two best-practice cases: Saerbeck (Germany) and Lochem (The Netherlands).

  • Paradiplomacy and the Management of the Amazon in the Brazilian Federalism
    http://dx.doi.org/10.18623/rvd.v17i39.1771 PARADIPLOMACY AND THE MANAGEMENT OF THE AMAZON IN THE BRAZILIAN FEDERALISM Eliana Maria de Souza Franco Teixeira1 Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA) Patrícia Kristiana Blagitz Cichovski2 Centro Universitário Metropolitano da Amazônia (UNIFAMAZ) ABSTRACT The criteria for allocating Amazon Fund’s resources have been redefined, leading donor foreign states to block the transfer of resources to that Fund. This generated much speculation and a series of economic embarrassments for Amazon state governments, as well as a malaise among Western coun- tries with regard to sustainable development. In this study, thus, we ad- dress the following problem: what are the Legal Amazon states’ options, considering the particularities of the Brazilian federalism, for keeping in- vestments and management focused on mitigating illegal deforestation and degradation, the sustainable development and the security in their Amazon territories? Thus, the aim of this article is to provide a reinterpretation of Brazilian federalism, assessing the possibilities of international action by Amazon state governments to maintain foreign investments for the purpos- es of preservation, security and sustainable development of the Brazilian Legal Amazon. The methodology used was hypothetical-deductive, and our research hypothesis was ratified. In other words, the Amazon states can exercise paradiplomacy through the Legal Amazon Consortium. Questions about this position should be dispelled when the Constitution is amended to expressly recognize the exercise of paradiplomacy. Keywords: Amazon rainforest; consortium; environment; federalism; paradiplomacy. 1 Doctoral researcher in Law from UFPA. Master in Constitutional Law from the Universidade da Amazônia (UNAMA).

  • Green Concrete Based on Quaternary Binders with Significant Reduced Of
    energies Article Green Concrete Based on Quaternary Binders with Significant Reduced of CO2 Emissions Grzegorz Ludwik Golewski Department of Structural Engineering, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Lublin University of Technology, Nadbystrzycka 40 Str., 20-618 Lublin, Poland; [email protected]; Tel.: +48-81-538-4394 Abstract: The article presents studies of plain concretes prepared based on a quaternary binder containing various percentages of selected supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). The possibilities of nanotechnology in concrete technology were also used. An additional important environmental goal of the proposed solution was to create the possibility of reducing CO2 emissions and the carbon footprint generated during the production of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). As the main substitute for the OPC, siliceous fly ash (FA) was used. Moreover, silica fume (SF) and nanosilica (nS) were also used. During examinations, the main mechanical properties of composites, i.e., compressive strength (f cm) and splitting tensile strength (f ctm), were assessed. The microstructure of these materials was also analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). In addition to the experimental research, simulations of the possible reduction of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere, as a result of the proposed solutions, were also carried out. It was found that the quaternary concrete is characterized by a well-developed structure and has high values of mechanical parameters. Further- more, the use of green concrete based on quaternary binders enables a significant reduction in CO2 emissions. Therefore quaternary green concrete containing SCMs could be a useful alternative to plain concretes covering both the technical and environmental aspects.

  • Introduction
    INTROD UCTION In his Contribuição à história das lutas operárias no Brasil (Contribu- tion to the History of Labor Struggles in Brazil), originally published in 1955, Hermínio Linhares reveals himself to be one of those authors who considers the typesetters’ strike, which took place in 1858, to be “Rio de Janeiro’s fi rst strike, maybe Brazil’s.”1 This strike, which has been an object of academic studies for some time now,2 is signifi cant indeed. After months demanding a wage increase from the owners of the three ma- jor court dailies (Correio Mercantil, Diário do Rio de Janeiro, and Jornal do Comercio) and at a moment when the cost of living was soaring, the typesetters decided to stop work beginning on January 9, 1858. What is most interesting about this strike is the existence of a relatively vast volume of records, because the strikers, supported by the Imperial Asso- ciação Tipográfi ca Fluminense (Imperial Fluminense Typographic Asso- ciation),3 founded the Jornal dos Tipógrafos (Typographers’ Journal), a daily newspaper that was to present the workers’ arguments in the weeks that followed. In the newspaper’s pages we fi nd a relatively small profes- sional group (the biggest of the diaries, Jornal do Comércio [Commerce’s Journal], employed about thirty-two typesetters only) that presented it- self being composed of “artists,” specialized artisans, impoverished by the greed of the newspaper proprietors and their refusal to pay them a decent wage. The strike is all the more remarkable because of the active role played by the typographers’ association, whose main goal was actually mutual assistance, but which eventually assumed the function of repre- senting its members’ interests, interceding with the authorities on behalf of the workers and fi nancing machinery acquisition for the printing of the strikers’ newspaper.

Renewable energy use has also grown, albeit not yet at a scale or pace to place the to achieve 100% city-wide renewable energy target within reach. renewable district The amount of renewable energy (wind, solar and biogas) produced by the municipality more heating supply than doubled from 6 916 megawatt hours (MWh) in 2016 to 16 660 MWh in 2017. by 2020 Renewable energy production across the city – beyond what the municipality itself produces – reached 416 500 MWh in 2017, up 14% from the 366 100 MWh the previous year. This is equivalent to almost a quarter of its total energy (City of Malmö, 2017a). Most of this figure represents electricity generation, the bulk of which stems from wind power. In order to achieve the target of meeting 100% of local demand with renewable energy, demand side reductions and efficiency gains must be matched with more significant supply side generation. The challenge of an ambitious renewable energy target Sweden is a European leader in renewables. With a 52.6% share of energy from renewable sources (including renewable electricity, renewable heating and cooling, and renewable energy consumed in transport) in 2014, the country has already surpassed its own goal of supplying 50% of its energy from renewables by 2020 (European Environment Agency, 2016). Urban-level ambition, as is seen in Malmö, is critical for reaching nationwide goals.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Hastings Law Journal by an authorized editor of UC Hastings Scholarship Repository. Race Audits R.A. LENHARDT* The persistence of the problems that attend the American color line makes clear the need for greater experimentation and innovation in the area of race. For years now, we have looked primarily to courts for solutions. But current jurisprudence offers very little that is useful in dealing with the modem realities of durable racial inequality and segregation. As cases such as Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. i and Ricci v. DeStefano make clear, it limits dramatically the tools available to address racial inequality, regardingas "bad cities" localities that try affirmatively to grapple with matters of race. This Article thus urges a focus on localities and the deep potential that such entities- because of their intimate experience with race and how it operateson the ground-have to do "good," to be "equality innovators." The Article develops a proposal for the "race audit," a voluntary, evaluative measure designed to identify the sources of persistent racialinequality that can be productively deployed by localities.
