Âge au décès de l’enfant néandertalien de l’Hortus by Fernando Ramirez Rozzi

“…The determination of age at death of Neanderthal children is at the centre of discussion on the type of growth which characterised these fossil humans.

L’écologie territoriale et les enjeux de la dématérialisation des sociétés : l’apport de l’analyse des flux de matières by Sabine Barles

“…Thanks to several case studies at the regional and département scale, the paper illustrates the contribution of bulk material balances to the understanding of territorial metabolism; studies the main material flows and identifies the three main types of materials involved: construction minerals (the consumption of witch is linked to urban sprawl process), agricultural and food products, fossil fuels. The paper also makes some suggestions in terms of pathways to dematerialisation, and proposes further research developments.…”

Genetic Evidence for Geographic Structure within the  Neanderthal Population by Rogers, Alan R.

“…PSMC estimates of Neanderthal effective population size (Ne) exhibit a roughly 5-fold decline across the most recent 20~ky before the death of each fossil. To explain this pattern, this article develops new theory relating genetic variation to geographic population structure and local extinction. …”

Carbon Sequestration and Storage by Gainesville’s Urban Forest by Francisco Escobedo, Jennifer A. Seitz, Wayne Zipperer

“…In addition, decomposing trees and mulch, tree maintenance activities, and improperly placed trees that cause shading in winter can also result in emissions of CO2, so it is important for communities to reduce fossil fuel emissions and manage for and preserve large, healthy trees to maximize the amount of CO2 sequestered by an urban forest. …”

Sustentabilidade e economia verde, limites e potencialidades da gestão sustentável by Rodrigo Foresta Wolffenbüttel

“…Therefore, we investigated the communication documents released by companies linked to the productive network of green plastic, a product that has the same physical properties of conventional plastic, but is derived from a non-fossil raw material (ethanol). The content analysis points to the expansion of the scope of the documents and their target audience, but also demonstrates the limits and the increasing relevance of the concept of integrated sustainability to the business for the corporaret strategy. …”
