DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Segundo an&uacute\;ncio e chamada para participa&ccedil\;&atilde\;o</strong></p>\n<p>Em 1972\, uma not&aacute\;vel conflu&ecirc\;ncia de acontecimentos cient&iacute\;fico-culturais contribuiu para uma grande transforma&ccedil\;&atilde\;o no modo como vemos e pensamos o planeta que habitamos\, nele agimos e imaginamos o nosso futuro conjunto:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>a 5 de junho\, em Estocolmo\, realizou-se a &ldquo\;United Nations Conference on the Human Environment&rdquo\;\, considerada a primeira dedicada ao assunto\, ponto de partida para uma nova era na coopera&ccedil\;&atilde\;o global sobre problemas ambientais e que abriu caminho para o conceito de desenvolvimento sustent&aacute\;vel\;</li>\n<li>a economista baronesa Jackson of Lodsworth\, Barbara Ward e o microbi&oacute\;logo Ren&eacute\; Dubos publicaram o influente livro <em>Only One Earth: The Care and Maintenance of a Small Planet</em>\, assumido como o relat&oacute\;rio n&atilde\;o oficial dessa Confer&ecirc\;ncia de Estocolmo\;</li>\n<li>o grupo de cientistas sociais e ambientais Donella Meadows\, Dennis Meadows\, J&oslash\;rgen Randers e Behrens William III igualmente publicou o muito debatido relat&oacute\;rio para o Clube de Roma <em>Limits to Growth</em>\, no qual a quest&atilde\;o dos limites planet&aacute\;rios come&ccedil\;ou a colocar-se\;</li>\n<li>em agosto desse ano\, James Lovelock formulou no curto artigo "Gaia as seen through the atmosphere" a controversa "hip&oacute\;tese Gaia" sobre o envolvimento geol&oacute\;gico da vida que\, em termos gerais\, postula que a Terra e os seus sistemas biol&oacute\;gicos se comportam como uma singular entidade que controla e mant&eacute\;m as condi&ccedil\;&otilde\;es do planeta favor&aacute\;veis &agrave\; vida\;</li>\n<li>James Meeker\, um bi&oacute\;logo interessado pela literatura\, publicou <em>The Comedy of Survival: Studies in Literary Ecology</em>\, onde lan&ccedil\;ou as bases desse campo de investiga&ccedil\;&atilde\;o\, a "a ecologia liter&aacute\;ria" ou estudo das rela&ccedil\;&otilde\;es entre as artes liter&aacute\;rias e a ecologia cient&iacute\;fica\, ensaio que se revelar&aacute\; seminal da Ecocr&iacute\;tica\;</li>\n<li>a 7 de dezembro desse mesmo ano\, a tripula&ccedil\;&atilde\;o da miss&atilde\;o Apollo 17 da NASA obteve\, a 45.000 quil&oacute\;metros da Terra e a caminho da Lua\, a ic&oacute\;nica imagem &ldquo\;The Blue Marble&rdquo\; que\, para al&eacute\;m de ser um dos grandes marcos da fotografia tirada do espa&ccedil\;o\, alterou profundamente a nossa perce&ccedil\;&atilde\;o sobre a Terra\, desde ent&atilde\;o parecendo um lugar pequeno e fr&aacute\;gil\, e a nossa experi&ecirc\;ncia comum de viver nela.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>No pr&oacute\;ximo ano\, em 2022\, ter-se-&atilde\;o passado cinquenta anos desde a sua ocorr&ecirc\;ncia. Que aconteceu\, entretanto? Continuamos a ter uma s&oacute\; Terra\, mas como estamos a cuidar dela? E que exist&ecirc\;ncia nos &eacute\; permitido levar nela? Estas s&atilde\;o as quest&otilde\;es de fundo a serem exploradas no <em>Encontro Internacional de Estudos do Antropoceno e Ecocr&iacute\;tica Green Marble</em>.</p>\n<p>Todavia\, outras quest&otilde\;es mais espec&iacute\;ficas\, e que constituem &ldquo\;solo comum&rdquo\; dos Estudos do Antropoceno &ndash\; ou do impacto da atividade da esp&eacute\;cie humana no Sistema Terrestre &ndash\; e da Ecocr&iacute\;tica &ndash\; ou do estudo da rela&ccedil\;&atilde\;o entre a Literatura e o meio ambiente &ndash\; &aacute\;reas que embora distintas partilham um ponto de vista multidisciplinar e interdisciplinar na an&aacute\;lise da cr&iacute\;tica situa&ccedil\;&atilde\;o clim&aacute\;tica\, ambiental e ecol&oacute\;gica contempor&acirc\;nea\, dos seus efeitos\, consequ&ecirc\;ncias e implica&ccedil\;&otilde\;es s&oacute\;cio-pol&iacute\;tico-econ&oacute\;micos\, culturais e civilizacionais\, assim como na discuss&atilde\;o e proposta de solu&ccedil\;&otilde\;es para corrigir ou melhorar a sua trajet&oacute\;ria\, podem ser igualmente exploradas. Elas fazem parte\, nalguma medida\, do legado desse extraordin&aacute\;rio ano de 1972:&nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>a nova condi&ccedil\;&atilde\;o planet&aacute\;ria afeta toda a Humanidade do mesmo modo?</li>\n<li>para que/quem servem as declara&ccedil\;&otilde\;es\, acordos\, tratados internacionais sobre clima\, ambiente\, ecologia? algu&eacute\;m os cumpre? algu&eacute\;m os respeita?</li>\n<li>est&atilde\;o o direito internacional e as leis nacionais desajustados da nova condi&ccedil\;&atilde\;o planet&aacute\;ria? contribuem eles mesmo para impedir que ela melhore ou piore?</li>\n<li>desenvolvimento sustent&aacute\;vel &eacute\; um conceito vazio? uma cren&ccedil\;a perigosa? um mero instrumento da ret&oacute\;rica pol&iacute\;tica?</li>\n<li>h&aacute\; mesmo limites ao crescimento? onde est&atilde\;o as evid&ecirc\;ncias? existir&atilde\;o apenas nos modelos computacionais e nos manuais cient&iacute\;ficos? por que raz&atilde\;o est&atilde\;o sempre a ser revistos?</li>\n<li>permanece Gaia um modelo/uma met&aacute\;fora pregnante para o tempo atual? Gaia est&aacute\; no fim da sua vida? Gaia ainda poder&aacute\; ser salva?</li>\n<li>afastou-se a Ecocr&iacute\;tica demasiado das suas origens\, quando estava mais alicer&ccedil\;ada na Ecologia cient&iacute\;fica? est&aacute\; a Ecocr&iacute\;tica a tornar-se num campo de estudo emp&iacute\;rico da narrativa ambiental? a Ecocr&iacute\;tica &eacute\; uma forma de ativismo impotente?</li>\n<li>como se comportam atualmente os g&eacute\;neros liter&aacute\;rios diante de quest&otilde\;es ambientais? podemos falar de eco-poemas\, eco-thrillers ou eco-narrativas? o que define estes g&eacute\;neros?</li>\n<li>continua a literatura de fic&ccedil\;&atilde\;o\, como reivindicou Amitav Ghosh\, tendencialmente alheada da problem&aacute\;tica do aquecimento global e das grandes altera&ccedil\;&otilde\;es clim&aacute\;ticas? o que define as emergentes distopias/utopias antropoc&eacute\;nicas? como poder&aacute\; a literatura ajudar na compreens&atilde\;o da atual condi&ccedil\;&atilde\;o planet&aacute\;ria?</li>\n<li>a Terra &eacute\; hoje uma complexa simula&ccedil\;&atilde\;o computacional? ou\, qui&ccedil\;&aacute\;\, um objeto program&aacute\;vel?</li>\n<li>em que medida a monitoriza&ccedil\;&atilde\;o clim&aacute\;tica e ambiental mediante tecnologias de informa&ccedil\;&atilde\;o e comunica&ccedil\;&atilde\;o\, dete&ccedil\;&atilde\;o remota\, etc. ajuda a proteger o planeta? a crescente gest&atilde\;o computacional de sistemas (socio-)ecol&oacute\;gicos contribui para a desresponsabiliza&ccedil\;&atilde\;o eco ambiental dos cidad&atilde\;os?</li>\n<li>etc.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Convidam-se\, assim\, todos os investigadores e acad&eacute\;micos &ndash\; das Geoci&ecirc\;ncias e das Ci&ecirc\;ncias sociais\, das Humanidades e das Artes\, das Engenharias e das Tecnologias &ndash\;&nbsp\; interessados e envolvidos no estudo de problem&aacute\;ticas do Antropoceno e da Ecocr&iacute\;tica a apresentarem propostas em portugu&ecirc\;s ou ingl&ecirc\;s para participa&ccedil\;&atilde\;o neste <em>Green Marble 2022</em> (ir para <a href="https://greenmarble2022.weebly.com/submissotildees-e-principais-datas.html">Submiss&otilde\;es e principais datas</a>). Ele constituir&aacute\; uma oportunidade para compartilhar conhecimento e debater quest&otilde\;es que t&ecirc\;m que ver com a rela&ccedil\;&atilde\;o entre o ser humano e a natureza e o impacto global da a&ccedil\;&atilde\;o humana em nosso planeta\, cruzando diferentes pontos de vista disciplinares.</p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Second announcement and call for participation</strong><strong></strong></p>\n<p>In 1972\, a remarkable confluence of scientific-cultural events contributed to a great transformation in the way we see the planet we inhabit\, think about it\, act on it and imagine our future together:&nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>on June 5\, in Stockholm\, the &ldquo\;United Nations Conference on the Human Environment&rdquo\; was held\, considered to be the first on the subject\, the starting point for a new era in global cooperation on environmental problems and which paved the way for the concept of sustainable development\;</li>\n<li>Baroness economist Jackson of Lodsworth\, Barbara Ward and microbiologist Ren&eacute\; Dubos published the influential book <em>Only One Earth: The Care and Maintenance of a Small Planet</em>\, considered the unofficial report of this Stockholm Conference\;</li>\n<li>the group of social and environmental scientists Donella Meadows\, Dennis Meadows\, J&oslash\;rgen Randers and Behrens William III also published the much debated report for the Club of Rome <em>Limits to Growth</em>\, in which the issue of planetary limits began to be framed\;</li>\n<li>in August of that year\, James Lovelock formulated in the short article "Gaia as seen through the atmosphere" the controversial "Gaia hypothesis" about the geological involvement of life which generally postulates that the Earth and its biological systems behave like a single entity that controls and maintains conditions on the planet favorable to life\;</li>\n<li>James Meeker\, a biologist interested in literature\, published <em>The Comedy of Survival: Studies in Literary Ecology</em>\, where he laid the groundwork for this field of inquiry\, "literary ecology" or study of the relationship between the literary arts and scientific ecology\, essay which will prove to be seminal in Ecocriticism\;</li>\n<li>on December 7 of the same year\, the astronaut crew of NASA`s Apollo 17 mission obtained\, 45\,000 kilometers from Earth and on its way to the Moon\, the iconic image &ldquo\;The Blue Marble&rdquo\; which\, in addition to being one of the great landmarks of the photograph taken from space\, profoundly altered our perception of the Earth\, since then it has seemed a small and fragile place\, and our common experience of living on it.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Next year\, in 2022\, fifty years will have passed since their occurrence. What happened\, in the meantime? We still have one Earth\, but how are we taking care of it? What existence are we allowed to take in it? These are the substantive questions to be explored at the <em>Green Marble International Meeting on Anthropocene Studies and Ecocriticism</em>.</p>\n<p>However\, other more specific issues\, which constitute "common ground" of the Anthropocene Studies &ndash\; or of the impact of the activity of the human species on the Earth System &ndash\; and Ecocriticism &ndash\; or of the study of the relationship between Literature and the environment &ndash\; areas that although distinct share a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary point of view in the analysis of the critical contemporary climate\, environmental and ecological situation\, its effects\, consequences and socio-political-economic\, cultural and civilizational implications\, as well as in the discussion and proposal of solutions to correct or improve its trajectory\, can also be explored. They are\, to some extent\, part of the legacy of that extraordinary year of 1972:&nbsp\;</p>\n<ul>\n<li>does the new planetary condition affect all of Humanity in the same way?</li>\n<li>what/who are declarations\, agreements\, international treaties on climate\, environment\, ecology for? does anyone comply with them? does anyone respect them?</li>\n<li>are international and national laws inadequate for the new planetary condition? do they themselves contribute to preventing it from getting better? or even to make matters worse?</li>\n<li>is sustainable development an empty concept? a dangerous belief? a mere instrument of political rhetoric?</li>\n<li>are there really limits to growth? where is the evidence? will they exist only in computer models and scientific textbooks? why are they always being revised?</li>\n<li>does Gaia remain a pregnant model/metaphor for the present time? Is Gaia at the end of its life? can Gaia still be saved?</li>\n<li>has Ecocriticism strayed far from its origins when it was more grounded in scientific ecology? Is Ecocriticism becoming a field of empirical study of environmental narrative? is ecocriticism a form of powerless activism?</li>\n<li>how are literary genres currently facing environmental issues? can we talk about eco-poems\, eco-thrillers or eco-narratives? what defines these genres?</li>\n<li>does fictional literature continue\, as claimed by Amitav Ghosh\, tending to be oblivious to the problem of global warming and major climate change? what defines the emerging anthropocene dystopias/utopias? how can literature help to understand the current planetary condition?</li>\n<li>is Earth today a complex computer simulation? or perhaps a programmable object?</li>\n<li>to what extent climate and environmental monitoring through information and communication technologies\, remote sensing\, etc. help protect the planet? does the growing computational management of (socio-)ecological systems contribute to the eco-environmental de-responsibility of citizens?</li>\n<li>etc.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We invite all researchers and scholars &ndash\; from the Geosciences and Social sciences\, Humanities and Arts\, Engineering and Technologies &ndash\; interested and involved in the study of Anthropocene and Ecocriticism issues to submit proposals in Portuguese or English for participation in this <em>Green Marble 2022 </em>(go to&nbsp\;<a href="https://greenmarble2022en.weebly.com/submissions-and-key-dates.html">Submissions and key dates</a>). It will be an opportunity to share knowledge and debate issues related to the relationship between human beings and nature and the global impact of human action on our planet\, crossing different disciplinary points of view.</p>
