Educação ambiental, cidadania e sustentabilidade

A reflexão sobre as práticas sociais, em um contexto marcado pela degradação permanente do meio ambiente e do seu ecossistema, envolve uma articulação com a educação ambiental, numa perspectiva interdisciplinar. Nesse sentido, a produção de conhecimento deve necessariamente contemplar as inter-relações do meio natural com o social, priorizando um novo perfil de desenvolvimento, com ênfase na sustentabilidade socioambiental. Leff (2001) fala sobre a impossibilidade de resolver os crescentes e complexos problemas ambientais e reverter suas causas sem que ocorra uma mudança radical nos sistemas de conhecimento, dos valores e dos comportamentos gerados pela dinâmica de racionalidade existente, fundada no aspecto econômico do desenvolvimento.

A realidade contemporânea exige uma reflexão cada vez menos linear, e isso se produz na inter-relação dos saberes e das práticas coletivas que criam identidades e valores comuns e ações solidárias diante da reapropriação da natureza, com vistas a um desenvolvimento sustentável. A complexidade do processo de transformação de um planeta, não apenas crescentemente ameaçado, mas também diretamente afetado pelos riscos socioambientais e seus danos, é cada vez mais notória. A concepção “sociedade de risco”, de Beck (1992), amplia a compreensão de um cenário marcado por nova lógica de distribuição dos riscos. Os riscos atuais caracterizam-se por ter consequências, em geral de alta gravidade, desconhecidas a longo prazo e que não podem ser avaliadas com precisão, como é o caso dos riscos ecológicos, químicos, nucleares e genéticos.

O tema da sustentabilidade confronta-se com o paradigma da “sociedade de risco”. Isso implica a necessidade de se multiplicarem as práticas sociais baseadas no fortalecimento do direito ao acesso à informação e à educação ambiental em uma perspectiva integradora. E como se relaciona educação ambiental com a cidadania? Cidadania tem a ver com a identidade e o pertencimento a uma coletividade. A educação ambiental como formação e exercício de cidadania refere-se a uma nova forma de encarar a relação do homem com a natureza, baseada numa nova ética, que pressupõe outros valores morais e uma forma diferente de ver o mundo e os homens. A educação  ambiental deve ser vista como um processo de permanente aprendizagem que valoriza as diversas formas de conhecimento e forma cidadãos com consciência local e planetária.

O desafio político da sustentabilidade, apoiado no potencial transformador das relações sociais que representam o processo da Agenda 21 – plano abrangente de ação para o desenvolvimento sustentável no século XXI –, encontra-se estreitamente vinculado ao processo de fortalecimento da democracia e da construção da cidadania, baseado em valores éticos como fundamentais para fortalecer a complexa interação entre sociedade e natureza.

Q1787520 Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho
Os métodos estatísticos são amplamente utilizados nos estudos de Higiene e Segurança do Trabalho como ferramentas para a Gestão da Higiene e Segurança do Trabalho, no planejamento e controle das condições de segurança do trabalho.
Dentre os indicadores mais usados temos:
1. Taxa de Frequência (F): número de acidentes por milhão de horas-homem de exposição ao risco, em determinado período. 2. Taxa de Gravidade (G): tempo computado por milhão de horas-homem de exposição ao risco, em determinado período. 3. Taxa de Mortalidade (M): número de óbitos por milhão de horas-homem de exposição ao risco ou por número de pessoas expostas, em determinado período. 4. Taxa de Letalidade (L): número de óbitos por número de acidentes ocorridos em um determinado período. 5. Anos Potenciais Perdidos (APP): soma das diferenças entre a idade limite para trabalhar e a idade do óbito do trabalhador.

(Title)

Production bottlenecks are generally considered to be temporary blockades to increased output; they can be thrown up anywhere along the course of a production process. Some are easy to identify and to remedy, while others are devilish.

The bottleneck that is easy to cope................................. is stationary. Work-in-process inventory piles..................... quickly behind it; clearly, little is getting through. Its cause is usually also clear – a machine has broken........................ or key workers are absent or demand has simply outstripped the clear, rated capacity of a machine – and the remedy follows easily. Such bottlenecks often occur........................ service operations, causing customer waits.

More subtle are bottlenecks that shift from one part of the process to another or that have no clear cause. Inventories build up in different places and at different times. Such bottlenecks creep up on management and demand more thorough investigation. Perhaps they were detected as flaws in a product’s quality caused inadvertently by one or more workers trying to keep pace with production demands that should not have been placed on them. Or, they may be caused by missing parts. They may be caused by new product startup or changes in the mix of products through the factory. In such cases the remedies are less clear-cut, and some analysis is called for.
Study the following sentence:
“Perhaps they were detected as flaws in a product’s quality caused inadvertently by one or more workers trying to keep pace with production demands that should not have been placed on them.”
1. the word ‘trying’ is being used in the sentence as a continuous verb. 2. the tense used in: ‘were detected, is the passive voice. 3. the word ‘flaws’ means ‘imperfections’. 4. in ‘product’s quality’, the (‘s) indicates possession.
