sinopse
No coração de um jardim botânico, numa cidade universitária alemã, ergue-se
um majestoso ginkgo, que testemunhará três histórias. Em 1908, a universidade
acolhe a primeira estudante de Botânica; em 1972, outraoestudante transforma-se
pelo simples acto de observar um gerânio; em 2020, um neurocientista de Hong
Kong desenvolve uma experiência com a árvore. Através dela e destas três
histórias, A Amiga Silenciosa é uma exploração terna da mais
humana pulsão – a conexão com o Outro. Saiba mais.
«Na Festa do Avante! debatemos o país e o mundo. Pois, para transformá-lo, é preciso conhecê-lo. E é preciso saber o que queremos e como queremos. Nós queremos construir um mundo mais justo onde não haja exploradores nem explorados, onde a riqueza produzida seja riqueza repartida. Onde todos tenham direito à cultura, à educação, à saúde, à habitação, onde o trabalho seja lugar de realização pessoal e colectiva. Porque o mundo é a nossa tarefa, promovemos dezenas de debates nos quais discutimos o nosso projecto de sociedade e as nossas propostas para os dias de hoje. Seja bem-vindo quem vier por bem».

Children and young people play a key role in the work for a more sustainable future. With this in mind, the Nordic Council Environment Prize this year focuses on initiatives that give young people the knowledge, skills and opportunities to influence developments in their local communities and society as a whole.

Researchers in China have created a textile from living mycelium that is self-cleaning, near self-repairing and can be coloured or made UV protective through "plug-and-play" add-ons of different fungi or yeast.
The breakthrough from the researchers at the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology is a type of engineered living material (ELM) – a material built off living organisms that stay active even after they're fabricated into their final form.
This distinguishes it from most contemporary uses of mycelium, which involve drying and effectively killing the fungus to produce a stable, non-growing material that has become a popular emerging alternative to plastic packaging and vinyl. (...)».
