The participation of Brazilian scientists in a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, also known as the IPCC, is the highlight of the program science is everything which airs on Saturday (16), at 9 am, on TV Brazil. The study brings together data and analysis on a global and regional scale on already observed impacts on climate.
The report also contemplates the projections and risks that the planet suffers in the short, medium and long term. The program highlights strategic actions such as increasing the world population’s access to renewable energy and encouraging the substitution of fossil fuels.
Innovation
The program also features a series of projects associated with innovation. The initiatives shown on the small screen involve ecological fertilizer, mathematical technology transfer and green economy.
Rich in calcium, eggshell is the subject of a project developed at the Federal University of Paraná. The initiative seeks to properly dispose of the eggshell and use it as a resource to develop a powerful ecological fertilizer. Specialists comment on the production technique and application method.
The attraction displayed by TV Brazil pays a visit to the Center for Projects and Innovation of the Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics (Impa). The site contributes to the transfer of mathematical technology and the training of high-level professionals for the national industry.
Scholars mention instruments to facilitate the application of mathematics in real life and in economic activity in particular. The proposal is to take the knowledge acquired in academia into companies.
Presented by Waldecir de Oliveira, the science is everything also reveals an interesting study published by researchers from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. The idea is to combine the economic, social and environmental agendas. The work proposes a green economic recovery plan for the country.
Called the Brazilian Green New Deal, the project has the capacity to reduce annual emissions of greenhouse gases in the national territory by half. The transition to a low carbon economy includes a plan with goals that include universal sanitation, expanding the reach of public transport and zero deforestation.
about the program
Since 2020, the science is everything presents information on the history of science, human inventions, curiosities and reflections on the impact of science and technology on people’s daily lives. It also addresses the news on investments and public policies for scientific promotion. The program is a partnership of TV Brazil with the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovations (MCTI) and is in its second season, with new and more dynamic staff.
The program’s mission is to promote scientific dissemination and help viewers understand the science behind everyday phenomena.
In the first season, the program adapted to the needs imposed by the covid-19 pandemic and addressed several topics related to the new coronavirus, such as research for the development of vaccines and equipment and the search for adequate treatment.
Science in everyday life has also inspired episodes on biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, engineering, cinema and astronomy, among other areas. A trip to Maranhão showed details about the Alcântara Launch Center (CLA), in operation since 1989 to launch rockets.
