          Brazil is home to roughly 60 percent of the Amazon, about half of what remains of the world’s tropical rainforests. And now, the country has plans to count its trees. A vast undertaking, the new National Forest Inventory hopes to gain “a broad panorama of the quality and the conditions in the forest cover”, according to Brazil’s Forestry Minister Antonio Carlos Hummel.

       The census, set to take place over the next four years, will scour 3,288,000 square miles, sampling 20,000 points at 20 kilometer intervals and registering the number, height, diameter, and species of the trees, among other data.

         The initiative, aimed to better allocate resources to the country’s forests, is part of a large-scale turnaround in Brazil’s relationship to its forests. While it once had one of the worst rates of deforestation in the world, last year only 1,797 square miles of the Amazon were destroyed – a reduction of nearly 80% compared to 2004.

Texto 1

Sobre o estupro coletivo de uma estudante de 23 anos em Nova Déli, o advogado que defende os suspeitos declarou: “Até o momento eu não vi um único exemplo de estupro de uma mulher respeitável”. Sobre esta declaração, o advogado garantiu que não tentou difamar a vítima. “Eu só disse que as mulheres são respeitadas na Índia, sejam mães, irmãs, amigas, mas diga-me que país respeita uma prostituta?!”

Texto 2

Na Índia, a violência contra as mulheres tomou uma nova e mais perversa forma, a partir do cruzamento de duas linhas: as estruturas patriarcais tradicionais e as estruturas capitalistas emergentes. Precisamos pensar nas relações entre a violência do sistema econômico e a violência contra as mulheres.
