The right to live without environmental pollution By Gustavo Copelmayer Lately I have been researching the universal right to live free from environmental pollution and I have come across interesting ideas. The right to life is above all other fundamental rights of people, hence the right to life is the basis of all jurisprudence. Its relationship to the environment could be deemed quite obvious since the right to life includes all living beings. Given this premise, we must think about enforcing the right to live in a space without pollution. Environmental pollution is understood to be any presence of substances or elements in the environment that are harmful to humans and ecosystems. There are different types of pollution, but they can basically be divided into: air, soil, and water pollution. Living in pollution-free environments means human existence in an environment that is not only natural, harmonious, free of toxic substances that humans produce, but also includes physical, chemical, and biological elements that are in harmony with nature and are not harmful for the conservation of natural resources that our planet produces on its own. #BioNature #Gustavo #Copelmayer #GustavoCopelmayer #EcoNature #tecnology #tecnologia #news #noticias #article #articulo #ecology #ecologia #nature #naturaleza #environment #ambiente #planetEarth #planetaTierra #likeforlikes #followforfollowback #EEUU #life #vida #right #derecho https://www.instagram.com/p/CRsZ1xrHmKL/?utm_medium=tumblr

Can nature be built? This captious question is due to the curiosity to know about the latest challenges developed to build, tame or control nature. In this sense, Gustavo Copelmayer says that methodologies have been developed for the management of water-land, the creation of artificial hills, dikes, to defense works and coastal protection, as well as the construction of artificial islands. For projects of this magnitude, the combination of the water-land relationship, horticulture, science, art and architecture have been employed. “I will mention the Eden Project located in a former clay mine in Cornwall, UK, a titanic work for which Tim Smit is responsible,” says Copelmayer. It is a project of environmental recovery, consisting of 5 geodesic spheres similar to bubbles that house three environments called biomes, the first simulates a humid tropical climate, the other is dedicated to the Mediterranean climate and the third biome is outdoors. Other countries have already ventured into this type of project in which they use organic and inorganic materials, and the forces and interactions present in nature. There have been extensions of coastal land using offshore spaces, carrying areas of land in the water, as has been done in Holland, Dubai, or United Arab Emirates. Therefore, says Copelmayer, this concept of building nature, has been applied, although to a lesser degree, in most continents including Asia, Africa and the Americas (Miami Beach).  Already in Australia with its small population, it is employed not only for urban, industrial, residential and recreational development, but also, for present long-term solutions, environmentally and economically sustainable. #BioNature #Gustavo #Copelmayer #GustavoCopelmayer #EcoNature #tecnology #tecnologia #news #noticias #article #articulo #ecology #ecologia #nature #naturaleza #environment #ambiente #planetEarth #planetaTierra #likeforlikes #followforfollowback #EEUU #horticulture https://www.instagram.com/p/CRXUxwYHsBf/?utm_medium=tumblr

Innovative organic products enter local markets Consumers are increasingly aware and demanding of the preservation of the environment and ecological practices in industrial and even artisan production processes, says Gustavo Copelmayer. Innovation in this area is being highly valued, even by the banking sector, who are betting on its development through credit and financial support. “It seems important to me to highlight the effort of those who have been successful with their products and brands from an ecological perspective focused on the environment,” emphasizes Gustavo Copelmayer. The development opportunities in this sector meet the needs of the market with an environmental consciousness and are producing ecological detergents, personal hygiene products, urns or biodegradable coffins, and organic foods that require less energy and water in their processes. Likewise, Gustavo Copelmayer adds, furniture and accessories are being built from pallets or bamboo with a philosophy of special design, recycling and environmental conservation. In this same trend, you find the food packaging manufacturers, objects to store and organize, reusable cotton bags that seek to become an alternative to traditional plastic bags, among many other ventures that have started with a local reach to transcend towards the world thanks to exports, says Gustavo Copelmayer. “If I knew that the world would end tomorrow, I, still today, would plant a tree” Martin Luther King, American activist for the civil rights of African Americans. #BioNature #EcoNature #tecnology #tecnologia #news #noticias #article #articulo #ecology #ecologia #nature #naturaleza #environment #ambiente #planetEarth #planetaTierra #likeforlikes #followforfollowback #EEUU #Gustavo #Copelmayer #GustavoCopelmayer #verde #green #innovation #organic #orgánico #innovacion https://www.instagram.com/p/CQwyRmonDDV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Is food safety and Covid-19 related? It has been more than a year and a half since the pandemic and strict confinement were decreed worldwide due to Covid-19. Scientific studies through satellite images have revealed data and connections between the pandemic and food security, says Gustavo Copelmayer. It can be assured that the containment measures have affected food security and nutritional inequalities have been exacerbated, which generates a greater risk in the face of the pandemic itself. “It is necessary to strengthen sectors such as global food, as well as regional systems in order to ensure local supply,” says Gustavo Copelmayer. He also adds that “collaboration between countries and the strengthening of the different channels and actors in the food chain is of vital importance.” It is essential, says Gustavo Copelmayer, to immediately mitigate the consequences of deficient food chains that affect the most vulnerable populations, but that in the long term involve all of humanity. Currently, the impact on food security is increasing, especially in Latin American and Caribbean countries, due to the restrictions imposed by some governments due to COVID-19, which affects economic and social variables. Gustavo Copelmayer ends by noting that the four dimensions of food and nutritional security are: availability, access, use and stability.

Es costoso preservar el medio ambiente? Una pregunta que nos hacemos todos… Porqué razón el ser humano ha estado constantemente destruyendo la naturaleza debido a un supuesto progreso para la humanidad. El agua, los suelos, el aire, los seres vivos, los animales y plantas en extinción no tienen vuelta a la vida. El valor de la biodiversidad es inconmensurable pero irrecuperable, una vez que se pierde se fue y en muchas ocasiones no regresa más… Si los estados colocaran el valor de la biodiversidad en el corazón de la economía global, el planeta tendría menos problemas. Tenemos que estar comprometidos en la preservación de las aguas y el oxígeno necesarios para la vida. Parece increíble, pero algunos científicos de la Universidad de Cambridge, se dieron a la tarea de calcular el valor monetario de ciertos servicios ecológicos relacionados con la protección de nuestro ecosistema que de lo contrario causarian mas inundaciones, almacenamiento de carbono y todo tipo de amenazas bioambientales. Dedujeron, así mismo, los posibles dividendos de convertir esas inversiones en la producción de bienes como cultivos para la alimentación humana y animal.  Las fórmulas y estrategias serían algo complicado para explicar en pocas líneas, pero lo que es asombroso, es que detener la pérdida de biodiversidad, es rentable desde todo punto de vista financiero y es una excelente inversion a mediano y largo plazo. #BioNature #Gustavo #Copelmayer #GustavoCopelmayer #EcoNature #tecnology #tecnologia #news #noticias #article #articulo #ecology #ecologia #nature #naturaleza #environment #ambiente #planetEarth #planetaTierra #likeforlikes #followforfollowback #EEUU https://www.instagram.com/p/CMdLT7VHgvJ/?igshid=156pditjdi3fs

Día Internacional de la mujer: En defensa del medio ambiente La relación de la mujer como vínculo y defensa del medio ambiente puede remontarse a tiempos ancestrales. Como parte de la conmemoración, cada 8 de marzo del Día Internacional de la mujer, Gustavo Copelmayer, llama la atención a la labor de la mujer en pro de la protección ambiental, su contribución al bienestar y el desarrollo sostenible de sus comunidades, así como al mantenimiento de los ecosistemas, la diversidad biológica y los recursos naturales del planeta. Sin embargo, es sólo en años recientes que su presencia en los organismos e instituciones que toman decisiones sobre el medio ambiente ha sido reconocida. En emblemáticas cumbres del medio ambiente como la de Estocolmo en 1972 o cuando se firmó el Protocolo de Kioto en 1997, se denotaba la ausencia de representación del sexo femenino en esos acuerdos, reseña Gustavo Copelmayer. A pesar de ello, son muchas las mujeres que han dedicado sus vidas a la defensa del medio ambiente. Investigadoras, naturalistas, activistas, representantes de diversas etnias autóctonas, todas organizadas para defender los intereses de la tierra. Se hace visible que las mujeres de los países en desarrollo son generalmente las primeras en responder al manejo de la riqueza medioambiental que las rodea, es así como las mujeres en todo el planeta utilizan e interactúan con los recursos naturales y los ecosistemas diariamente. Añade Gustavo Copelmayer que también son las primeras en sentir los efectos del cambio climático, si bien la degradación medioambiental tiene graves consecuencias para todos los seres humanos, afecta en particular a los sectores más vulnerables de la sociedad, principalmente las mujeres, cuya salud es más frágil durante el embarazo y la maternidad.

Prediction of climate change through paleontology and astrophysics Findings from gravitational wave astronomy used to find black holes in space have been used to study marine fossils as predictors of climate change. Paleontologists, astrophysicists and mathematicians seek to improve the accuracy of a paleo-thermometer, which can use fossil evidence of climate change to predict what will be likely to happen to Earth in the coming decades, says Gustavo Copelmayer, based on research published in the Climate of the Past magazine. Biomarkers left behind by small single-celled organisms called archaea have been studied in the distant past, including the Cretaceous and Eocene periods that occur at different sea temperatures. Determining how much the Earth will warm in the coming decades depends on modeling, so it is vitally important to calibrate those models using literally hundreds of millions of years of climate history to predict what might happen to the Earth in the future, Gustavo Copelmayer concludes. #BioNature #EcoNature #tecnology #tecnologia #news #noticias #article #articulo #ecology #ecologia #nature #naturaleza #environment #ambiente #planetEarth #planetaTierra #likeforlikes #followforfollowback #EEUU #Gustavo #Copelmayer #GustavoCopelmayer #ClimateChange #CambioClimatico https://www.instagram.com/p/CL2qZ_NnH_N/?igshid=rsk11s7v6zcq
