MARATONA DA SELVA 2009
A expectativa de todos envolvidos na Maratona da Selva é grande para a edição de 2009. Este ano teremos a participação de competidores dos mais variados países e será a mais internacional das cinco edições.
Cerca de 100 atletas vindos da Austrália, Nova Zelândia, Estados Unidos, Canadá, México, China, Guiana Francesa, África do Sul, Egito, Estônia, Inglaterra, Escócia, Pais de Gales, Irlanda do Norte, Irlanda, Itália, Portugal, França, Dinamarca, Noruega, Suécia, Alemanha, e claro do Brasil estarão na linha de largada e sonham cruzar a linha de chegada desta vez em Santarém.
A competição poderá ser acompanhada como de costume pelos mais variados meios de comunicação. Blogs, web sites, revistas, jornais e estações de rádio e televisão no Brasil e no exterior.
Um dos últimos a se inscrever foi Robert Bennett dos Estados Unidos que participou no ano passado, mas terminou sendo evacuado no final da terceira etapa para a UTI em Santarém onde passou a maior parte da corrida acompanhando pela televisão. Robert está determinado a chegar a Santarém correndo ao invés de ambulancha!
A Maratona da Selva 2009 acontecerá de 8 a 17 de Outubro.

FLONA

Hoje, a Floresta Nacional do Tapajós está completando 35 anos!
São 545 mil hectares de floresta, água, cultura e muita história...
Era uma vez uma grande área verde, banhada por um belo rio, que se transformou numa área protegida. E as pessoas que lá viviam não poderiam permanecer. Foram muitos embates entre moradores e órgão gestor da Unidade. E, com o passar do tempo, a floresta vinha sofrendo com seu uso inadequado. Após longo período de conversas, começamos a trabalhar juntos, em prol do benefício coletivo e do meio ambiente saudável. Muitos deixaram um pouco de si aqui...técnicos, moradores, pesquisadores, visitantes...e, é claro, contamos com a ajuda do Mapinguari, do Garcia (cobra-grande em Tauari), da Rosinda (encantada)...para construir o caminho de conquistas da FLONA do Tapajós, nos tornando referência nacional. Os desafios ainda são imensos e temos muito a fazer, somando nossas forças em busca do desenvolvimento sustentável local e da conservação da biodiversidade.
Parabéns a Floresta Nacional do Tapajós, seus habitantes e amig@s! Temos muito a celebrar!

Cashew
is a native fruit abundant during the race. The nut is quite popular outside brazil, the apple contains proteins, fiber and vitamins. Whei you pick up from the tree make sure your lips dont touch the nut. It contains resins that will burn your skin. The liquid also stains your clothes. It is delicious though.

ICMBIO (Instituto Chico Mendes de Proteção ...
...a Biodiversidade, http://www.icmbio.gov.br/). É uma das autarquias Ibamáticas recentemente criada com a responsabilidade de pesquisar e proteger a biodiversidade Brasileira, como a sigla sugere. Daniel Penteado, chefe da Flona Tapajos(foto com Marcia Andrade TV Tapajos-Globo)e Viviane Daufemback são as pessoas mais envolvidas diretamente com o evento, e gostaríamos de expressar nossa admiração e agradecimento pelos esforços direcionado a Maratona da Selva a eles e colegas.
Gostaríamos tambem de desejar sucesso em outras questões que dizem respeito a Floresta Nacional do Tapajós.
