A atual crise ambiental e social demanda uma reflexo a respeito do estado vigente do mundo. Nosso atual modelo economico, caracterizado pelo uso indiscriminado de recursos, em um processo constante de extraço, produço, uso e descarte, se mostrou ineficiente, trazendo consequencias diretas a vida no planeta. A sociedade, ao passo que esta interligada a natureza, tem o poder de modifica-la, gerando impactos que podem ser encarados como problemas sociais. Este livro, partindo de uma perspectiva teorica da economia ecologica, buscou discorrer sobre a economia circular, apontando-a como um movimento economico alternativo, que pode contribuir para a reduço dos impactos ambientais e sociais, possibilitando um cenario de mais equidade e bem-estar social.

In 1839, the United States and Great Britain almost went to war over trees. The border between Maine and New Brunswick was undefined, and valuable timberland lay in the disputed zone. When Canadian lumberjacks started chopping down "American" pines, the Governor of Maine sent in the militia.This is the story of the Aroostook War, affectionately known as the "Pork and Beans War" due to the soldiers diet. It involved angry lumberjacks, a massive deployment of troops, and a lot of posturing, but miraculously, zero combat deaths. The only casualties were two soldiers who froze to death and a cow that was shot by mistake."The Pork and Beans War" is a humorous yet fascinating look at how close two allies came to bloodshed over resources. It highlights the power of diplomacy (and a convenient map fraud) in resolving the conflict, ultimately defining the peculiar northeastern border of the USA.

Some islands are erased from maps.Others are erased from memory.This story belongs to the latter.!Island of the Damned is not merely a work of speculative fiction. It is an examination of a recurring human impulsethe belief that isolation grants permission, that secrecy absolves responsibility, and that power, when hidden far enough from public sight, can reshape morality itself.Across history, islands have served as laboratories of ambition. Removed from law, distanced from conscience, they become ideal vessels for experimentationnot only on bodies, but on ethics, identity, and the very definition of humanity. In this novel, Aethelburg Island stands as such a place: a sealed ecosystem where science detaches from accountability, where progress is pursued without restraint, and where the human form becomes raw material.Island of the Damned asks a simple but unsettling question:If humanity could be redesigned.Who would be trusted to decide what must be removed?This book does not offer comfort. It offers reflection. It invites the reader to confront the seductive nature of control, the danger of believing oneself exempt from moral limits, unsettling truths
