Brazil proposes fund to stem rainforest cutting
By Andrea Welsh, 31 Aug 2006
SĂO PAULO, Brazil – Brazil proposed on Thursday a fund
to compensate developing countries that slow the destruction of
their rainforests, a move that could help lower emissions of gases
blamed for rising world temperatures. The Brazilian initiative,
presented at a planning meeting for upcoming global climate talks
in Rome, calls for creating a fund that countries could tap into if
they could prove they had brought deforestation below rates of
the 1990s. “Once again Brazil is acting as a protagonist ... in
presenting an innovative proposal,” Environment Minister Marina
Silva told Reuters at a conference in SĂŁo Paulo.
Disagreements over how to address deforestation have hurt
global efforts to cap emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon
dioxide and create markets for trading in carbon and credits. Most
emissions come from burning oil and coal, but deforestation is
responsible for about 20 percent because trees store carbon dioxide
when they grow and release it into the atmosphere when they die.
Global agreements allow credit for planting trees where forests
have already been cleared but offer no incentives for preventing
cutting in areas like Brazil’s Amazon, home to nearly a third of
all species and a quarter of the earth’s fresh water. Critics say
developing countries want cash for preserving their forests.
Brazil has long objected to granting tradable emission credits
for preserving forests because heavy oil and coal users like the
United States might buy up credits instead of reducing their own
emissions. Silva said Brazil’s proposal was a draft but it should
serve as the basis for discussion at the next round of global
climate talks in November. She also said Brazil is working with
Papua New Guinea and Costa Rica, who backed an earlier
proposal to grant tradable credits to countries that reduce
deforestation rates.(www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N31355372.htm. Adaptado.)

Health News Blues
By Susan Yara, 07.27.06.
Before you panic after hearing about the latest health epidemic
on the local news, consider getting an expert opinion. In this fastmoving information world, where just about anything can be found
with a simple click of a mouse or by flipping through cable
channels, it’s hard to know whom to trust, especially when it comes
to health and medical issues. That is why doctors advise the public
to be skeptical about news of a health “epidemic” or “crisis,”
especially when it comes from the local television news.
“It’s not that the information on the news isn’t accurate,” says
Dr. David B. Baron, a family physician and chief of staff at the
Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center in Malibu, Calif. “But the
media tend to go for the medical news that’s most exciting or
most interesting, and too often most alarming.”
In a survey of local television coverage of medical news,
published in the March issue of The American Journal of Managed
Care, three doctors examined the content of full-length news
broadcasts in the top 50 U.S. media markets and found that of the
2,795 broadcasts they reviewed, 64% featured health stories. In
fact, at times health coverage is inaccurate and is squeezed into
such short bites of time that it may not provide helpful information.
The average amount of airtime for each story was a mere 33
seconds, and the two most common topics were breast cancer
and West Nile Virus. The survey concluded that few of the
newscasts actually provided useful information, while some of
the stories were factually incorrect-worrying considering that local
television news broadcasts reach an average of 165 million
Americans.
“I think it’s alarming that they fail to talk about prevention or
what to do in case,” says Dr. James M. Pribble, lead author on the
survey and elector in the Department of Emergency Medicine at
the University of Michigan. “For instance, West Nile Virus was a
common story, but no one told you what to do to avoid getting bit
by mosquitoes.”
Baron opines that reports on the “obesity epidemic” or Avian
Flu are valid stories but often don’t include information that will
help viewers live healthier lifestyles. “There needs to be
information about nutrition, weight management, smoking
cessation, exercise, lowering blood pressure and cholesterol, and
preventing and screening cancer and heart disease,” he says.
Luckily, there are plenty of trusted sources for medical news
and information that can be just as convenient as the 10 p.m.
newscast. Two Web sites to check out are that of the American
Academy of Family Physicians at www.familydoctor.org, and
WebMD. But he stresses that all medical conditions should be
properly assessed by an actual doctor.
“More than anything, I believe that people need to have a
good relationship with a primary care physician whom they trust,
who takes the time to answer questions, and who cares enough to
stay informed,” he says.(www.forbes.com/2006/07/26/questionable-healthnews_cx_sy_0727htow_print.html)

(A) nĂŁo se deve confiar incondicionalmente em notĂcias sobre saĂșde veiculadas em meios de comunicação.
(B) notĂcias alarmantes sobre epidemias e crises sĂŁo transmitidas para provocar pĂąnico e causar sensacionalismo.
(C) a mĂdia inventa histĂłrias como epidemias da obesidade,
da gripe aviåria e da febre do Nilo, que são doenças facilmente evitåveis.
(D) os mĂ©dicos devem se informar sobre as notĂcias veiculadas na imprensa para tratar adequadamente os novos

Temper Tracking: Angry Outbursts May Take a Toll on the Lungs
By Nicholas Bakalar, September 19, 2006
Men who are chronically hostile and angry may face a future of sharply diminishing lung function, new research suggests. In 1986, scientists administered a questionnaire to 670 men ages 21 to 80 to assess their hostility. Each then received a pulmonary exam within one year of completing the questionnaire. The men were tracked for an average of 8.2 years, with comprehensive physical examinations every 3 to 5 years, including an average of three pulmonary function tests.
After controlling for age, weight, height, smoking status and other variables, the scientists found a consistent association between high hostility and lower levels of lung function. Among more hostile men, pulmonary function was worse at every exam over a 10-year period when compared with less hostile subjects. The study appears online in Thorax.
Since levels of lung function were in the normal range at the start of the study, the researchers say, the possibility that poor lung function led to hostility rather than the other way around is unlikely. They acknowledge, however, that an unknown factor could cause both hostility and poor lung function.
Still, Dr. Rosalind J. Wright, an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard and the senior author of the study, said there was no doubt that emotions could cause physical changes, some of which could be detrimental. “When you experience physical symptoms around negative emotions, your heart rate goes up, you start sweating, and so on,” Dr. Wright said. “Changes in bodily functions – nervous system, immune function – need to occur for you to feel these things. It is possible that similar processes are going on more locally, say in the lungs, which over many years may cause inflammation that affects lung function.”
