Estrategias de Desarrollo Bajo en Carbono en Megaciudades de América Latina
Aun cuando América Latina y el Caribe generan tan solo un 5% de los gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) del planeta, los efectos del cambio climático pueden ser devastadores para la región. l desafío de reducir dichas emisiones es pues importante y requiere determinar una estrategia de desarrollo sostenible bajo en carbono para la región, con acciones de mitigación y adaptación de carácter urgente.

Reducing Emissions and Improving Energy Efficiency in International Shipping
This article argues that, as the world’s only really reliable, global, cost-effective and energy-efficient mass transportation method for energy, materials, foods and products, maritime transport is central to sustainable development. And the maritime transportation system itself must, therefore, ensure that its development is also sustainable.
