Innovation and Energy

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Hard of Geography

The energy transition to renewable sources is essential for sustainable development and mitigating climate change. Technological innovations have allowed a significant advancement in the efficiency and cost reduction of wind and solar energy production, making them increasingly competitive compared to traditional energy sources. Given the current context, where sustainability becomes an increasingly present value in everyday life and the global economy, renewable energy not only represents a less polluting alternative but also an opportunity for innovation and economic growth. According to physicist and researcher Amory Lovins, 'Energy efficiency and renewable energies are the largest source of energy for the future; the coal stone is no longer a solar module under development.' Based on this perspective, how can innovations in the field of renewable energies, particularly wind and solar, contribute to the economic development of a society while meeting demands for sustainability and environmental protection?
a.
A transição para energias renováveis pode prejudicar o desenvolvimento econômico, pois a infraestrutura existente para combustíveis fósseis se torna obsoleta, resultando em grandes perdas financeiras.
b.
O desenvolvimento de energias renováveis, apesar de benéfico para o meio ambiente, não contribui para a segurança energética, pois são fontes de energia muito instáveis e imprevisíveis.
c.
As inovações em energias renováveis, como a eólica e a solar, têm um impacto econômico limitado, pois a criação de empregos e a inovação são superadas pelos altos custos de implementação.
d.
Innovations in the field of renewable energies, such as wind and solar, can significantly contribute to the economic development of a society, as they create jobs, stimulate innovation, promote energy security, and reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
e.
Embora as energias renováveis sejam menos poluentes, elas não estimulam o crescimento econômico nem a inovação, pois a tecnologia envolvida é simples e não oferece novas oportunidades de mercado.

NATO, a military alliance created in 1949, has played an important role in combating international terrorism since the attacks of September 11, 2001. It uses cartographic, graphic, and iconographic languages to plan operations, monitor movements, and inform the population. The main forms of violence related to terrorism include suicide attacks, kidnappings, explosive attacks, and cyber attacks, with varied causes such as poverty, social exclusion, religious and political radicalization. NATO proposes mechanisms such as direct military actions, cooperation between intelligence agencies, training of local security forces, and prevention and deradicalization programs. NATO's relations with counterterrorism are relevant in political, social, environmental, economic, and cultural aspects, promoting security, stability, and cooperation among different cultures and religions in the contemporary world.
