17. Education - A Brazilian answer I have witnessed the good side ofglobalization. It was hard to hide my emotions when I looked into the eyes of every child and stepmother receiving the Bolsa-Escola in Tanzanian shillings from a Ugandan mother living in the US, who got funding from a British foundation. “We have to take education beyond the classrooms” Cristovam Buarque, a futurist as the leader of the new Brazilian education program

18. The sustainable dream • “Considero uma tarefa fundamental do Estado brasileiro, neste final de milênio, estabelecer uma moratória na devastação do ambiente. A Amazônia, o Pantanal, a Mata Atlântica, as águas dos rios e do mar, a madeira, os minérios, as ervas, o ar, tudo o que Deus colocou nessa porção do planeta em que vivemos é tão importante para o futuro que não pode continuar servindo a um "progresso" econômico ilusório, predatório e especulativo. É um crime contra a humanidade sacrificar os recursos do milênio pelo lucro de uma década.” Marina Silva

41. AfloramentosPara impedir a contaminação pelo derrame de agrotóxicos, um dia a agricultura que utiliza fertilizantes e pesticidas poderá ser proibida nestas regiões. AquecimentoEm regiões onde o aqüífero é profundo, as fazendas poderão aproveitar a água naturalmente quente para combater geadas. Ou para reduzir o consumo de energia elétrica em chuveiros e aquecedores. IrrigaçãoUsar água tão boa para regar plantas é um desperdício. Mas, segundo os geólogos, essa pode ser a única solução para lavoura em áreas em risco de desertificação, como o sul de Goiás e o oeste do Rio Grande do Sul. AquedutoTransportar líquido a grandes distâncias é caro e acarreta perdas imensas por vazamento. Mas, para a cidade de São Paulo, que despeja 90% de seus esgotos nos rios, sem tratamento nenhum, o Guarani poderá, um dia, ser a única fonte.
