Abstract

After the Johannesburg World summit for Sustainable Development (WSSD), there has been growing interest in the establishment of a minimum share of renewable sources in the world energy matrix, which poses a question about how the new technologies can compete with the old ones. In Brazil , over the last 25 years, ethanol is used as a replacement of gasoline and the Brazilian electricity matrix reinforces the country's commitment, to utilize adequate policies for achieving sustainable development.

35. Developing countries are combating climate change: actions in developing countries that slow growth in carbon emissions

Author

Reid, Walter V. and Goldemberg, Jose

Subjects
Climatic changes -- Management, Developing countries -- Environmental policy, Greenhouse gases -- Environmental aspects, Business, Environmental issues, Petroleum, energy and mining industries
Abstract

Continued industrial developments in developing countries are expected to result in a substantial increase in greenhouse gas emissions, which will eventually exceed those of industrialized countries by the year 2020. It is noted that reductions in carbon emissions in developing countries might have already surpassed savings of industrialized nations due to increased international pressure and policy changes. In particular, energy price reforms that have produced production efficiency and savings are seen as a cause of developments.

42. Denuclearization in Argentina and Brazil

Author

Subjects
Nuclear-weapon-free zones -- Latin America, Democracy -- International aspects, International relations, Military and naval science, Political science
Abstract

The decision of the governments of Argentina and Brazil to use nuclear energy only for peaceful purposes is only due to democracy in these countries. The commitment of Argentina and Brazil to nuclear non-proliferation can have relevance in South Asia, where India and Pakistan are trying to augment their nuclear potential. The nuclear policy of Argentina and Brazil can be a model for North Korea and South Korea, whose persistent refusal to stop nuclear proliferation has become a cause for global concern.

46. A note on the energy intensity of developing countries

Author

Goldemberg, Jose

Subjects
Developing countries -- Energy use, Energy consumption -- Research, Business, Environmental issues, Petroleum, energy and mining industries
Abstract

The concept of energy intensity is coming to be recognized as a useful tool for examining trends in energy usage in certain countries. In 1993, Nielsson plotted the energy intensities of 31 developed and developing countries for the period 1950 to 1988. The values of the energy intensities that were generated for developing countries suggest that the modern sector in Third World has a considerable impact on economic activity and energy consumption.
