aeroportuária até a produção em escala industrial. Palavras-Chave: Poluição, Aviação, Biocombustíveis, Bioquerosene. Abstract Civil aviation represents an enormous part on human activities which pollutes the environment, whether it is air pollution, sound or environmental. Studies indicate that this activity can significantly modify the terrestrial biomes if no action is to be taken. With this in mind this activity problems is mainly turned into the atmosphere, forcing a pursuit…

(Elas estavam falando sobre temperaturas extremas no Brazil.) 12. Air pollution: Poluição do ar Ex: We must do something about air pollution. (Devemos fazer algo a respeito da poluição do ar.) 13. Nature reserve: Reserva natural Ex: There is a nature reserve near here. (Há uma reserva natural aqui perto.) See you! Prof. Donay Mendonça by…

human waste produces enough and leaves inadequately available in the environment, this solid waste can contribute to: Air Pollution, pollution of waters, soil pollution is pollution aesthetics. The excessive increase of waste generation compromises the ability of nature absorbs them, resulting in environmental imbalance. Good example of this problem and increased air pollution which results in a change of the ozone layer and the climate changes that significantly affect the life of the planet.

what is consistent with water pollution and its consequences for the environment. This covers the main types of pollution that affect water reserves, which can be: biological, chemical and thermal. In addition to citing the diseases that can be transmitted through water, will be demonstrated processes that can subtly affect the ecosystem, such as bioaccumulation, biomagnification and eutrophication. Some solutions were exposed to lower environmental impact that pollution can have on…

the most severe environmental problem of the century. Australia and many other countries around the world are implementing measurements to minimise carbon emissions as also searching for alternative sources to minimise environmental impact and pollution. One of the many options studied by the Australian authorities is the replacement of cars using fossil fuels by electrical powered vehicles. Within this report, I would like to expose the consequences of an indicative demand for…

fish in the Thames and over 400 species of invertebrates. Despite signs that the revitalization of Thames water worked, Thames Water, London sanitation company, maintains a high investment in water treatment and sewerage system. The war against pollution must be constant. The reform of water treatment plants, dump surveillance, treatment of all organic and inorganic material and pipe repairs badly made, must be constantly evaluated and redone. The great merit for implementation of this…

the Earth or we will kill ourselves. Conferences like “Rio 92” try to gather world leaders, ecologists, “green” organizations and people who want to save the planet. The main issues discussed in these meetings are: wildlife, pollution, health, energy and land. Pollution is one of the most serious problems. It causes, for example, the “greenhouse effect”, which makes the Earth hotter. It also causes “acid rain”, which contains lots of chemicals and kills fish and trees. People do…
