Americans May Add Five Times More Plastic to the Oceans Than Thought

The United States is using more

plastic than ever, and waste exported for

recycling is often mishandled, according

to a new study.

The United States contribution

to coastal plastic pollution worldwide is

significantly larger than previously

thought, possibly by as much as five

times, according to a study published

Friday. The research, published in Science

Advances, is the sequel to a 2015 paper

by the same authors. Two factors

contributed to the sharp increase:

Americans are using more plastic than

ever and the current study included

pollution generated by United States

exports of plastic waste, while the earlier

one did not.

The United States, which does

not have sufficient infrastructure to

handle its recycling demands at home,

exports about half of its recyclable waste.

Of the total exported, about 88 percent

ends up in countries considered to have

inadequate waste management.

“When you consider how much

of our plastic waste isn’t actually

recyclable because it is low-value,

contaminated or difficult to process, it’s

not surprising that a lot of it ends up

polluting the environment,” said the

study’s lead author, Kara Lavender Law,

research professor of oceanography at

Sea Education Association, in a

statement.

The study estimates that in

2016, the United States contributed

between 1.1 and 2.2 million metric tons of

plastic waste to the oceans through a

combination of littering, dumping and

Examine as afirmações a seguir.

II. A capacidade energética de um rio depende de grandes desníveis em seu perfil longitudinal, que motivam o surgimento de cachoeiras e corredeiras.

III. A drenagem exorreica é constituída por rios perenes. E as águas do rio coletor principal deságuam em mar aberto.

IV. Os rios intermitentes sazonais servem como hidrovias e têm bom potencial energético.

Analise o excerto que trata da expansão urbana da cidade de Fortaleza e suas implicações para a Região Metropolitana.

Marque a opção que contém informações INCORRETAS a respeito da cidade de Fortaleza, da sua Região Metropolitana e dos seus processos.

“Fortaleza cresce em todas as direções. O aumento acentuado da população provocou a expansão da malha urbana, ultrapassando os limites municipais. Em Fortaleza, as favelas, os conjuntos habitacionais mal conservados e as áreas de risco são marcas de territórios empobrecidos em expansão que avançam em direção aos municípios vizinhos, convertendo áreas rurais em espaços suburbanizados. Os fluxos migratórios atraem pessoas que vêm de toda parte em busca da cidade.”

(SILVA, José Borzacchiello da. A Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza. apud. Ceará: Um Novo Olhar Geográfico. Ed. Demócrito Rocha. Fortaleza, 2007. p. 101-124.)

As afirmações abaixo apontam para algumas características fundamentais das condições geológicas e geomorfológicas do Brasil.

I. No Brasil, os grandes domínios estruturais correspondem às áreas de bacias sedimentares e aos escudos cristalinos.

II. O modelado karstico se desenvolve em rochas calcárias submetidas ao processo de dissolução em climas secos ou desérticos.

III. As baías oriundas de movimentos transgressivos do mar são ambientes propícios para a localização dos portos.

( ) Conjunto indissociável de sistemas de objetos e de sistemas de ações. É complexo, mas apresenta elementos de unicidade.

( ) Tem em si as noções de densidade técnica, comunicacional, informacional e normativa. É nele que o tempo tem a dimensão de presente e passado. Nele o individuo se reconhece e cria identidade.

( ) A sua circunscrição é a das relações de domínio e apropriação, podendo inclusive transcender uma unidade política.

( ) (...) não é a simples adição de elementos geográficos disparatados. É, numa determinada porção (...), o resultado da combinação dinâmica, portanto instável, de elementos físicos, biológicos e antrópicos que, reagindo dialeticamente, uns sobre os outros, constituem um conjunto indissociável, em perpétua evolução.

1. Escala.

2. Paisagem.

4. Território.

5. Lugar.

6. Redes.

7. Região.

Analisando a rede urbana brasileira e o estudo das Regiões de Influência das Cidades - 2007 do IBGE, pode-se concluir que, atualmente, no Brasil, existem 12 grandes redes de influência de primeiro nível, que interligam até mesmo municípios em estados diferentes, superando inclusive os limites da divisão territorial oficial. O mesmo estudo classifica a hierarquia das cidades em cinco grandes níveis, levando em conta a classificação dos centros de gestão do território, a intensidade de relacionamentos e a dimensão da região de influência de cada centro, bem como as diferenciações regionais.

Sobre a rede urbana brasileira, a hierarquia das cidades e sua problemática é INCORRETO afirmar que
