Reservas Naturales

Se presenta un modelo de documento expedido por el contratante, haciendo constar que -despues de un lapso de 6 meses- no se han manifestado desperfectos ("vicios ocultos) en las obras o productos terminados y entregados por el contratado. 

En el caso a partir del cual se generó este modelo de constancia de no vicios ocultos, fue el de la rehabilitación de la estación que la Comisión de Areas Naturales Protegidas (CONANP) opera en la localidad de Xcalak, Municipio de Othón P. Blanco, estado de Quintana Roo, Estados Unidos Mexicanos.  El contratado fue la microempresa Vision EnerGtiK S. de R.L. MI.  Las obras fueron de mantenimiento, conservación y adecuación de la infraestructura a cargo de la Comisión Nacional de Áreas Naturales Protegidas (SEMARNAT) en la localidad de Xcalak, municipio de Othón P. Blanco, Quintana Roo, México.  Ello, conforme a precios unitarios y tiempo determinado especificados en el contrato CONANP/DRPY/AD-OP/16151003-073/2009.  El proyecto inició el 1 de marzo del 2009 y terminó el 14 de abril del 2009.  La constancia de no vicios ocultos se extendió luego de un año de concluído el proyecto. 

El modelo de constancia de no vicios ocultos, forma parte de la carpeta-antología que Visión EnerGtiK S. de R.L. MI  utiliza como material de apoyo al entrenamiento, sobre el trabajo, para la administración de proyectos en el campo de ahorro y uso eficiente de energía.

Biodiversity is a fundamental resource for the sustenance of human life on Earth. Its environmental services allow the satisfaction of basic needs and development, as well as keeping natural and urban ecosystems in balance. The expansion of human activities has led to habitat destruction, pollution and uncontrolled extraction of natural resources, and the proliferation of invasive species, which puts at risk the sustainability of human development.
In Córdoba, the change in land use, mainly represented in advancing urbanization and the agricultural frontier, has seriously affected native ecosystems, causing major environmental, social and economic damage. The Reserva Hídrica, Natural y Recreativa Los Quebrachitos, in Unquillo, present several consolidated issues affecting its biodiversity, despite attempts to eradicate them.
Environmental education is then proposed as an action of public and participatory policy, which will manage to increase value to the native biodiversity, and to the diversity of uses and activities that characterize the reserve, through the development of an audio-visual educational tool, with the intention of raising awareness on the ecosystemic value of the native forest of Córdoba in general, and the conservation of the resources of Los Quebrachitos in particular.
In this way, as a result, it was possible to understand the nature and context in which the reserve is inserted, while inquiring about the degree of knowledge of the existence and conservation status of the reserve by teachers and students. of the elementary schools of Unquillo, to whom the project is destined. In this sense, it was found that students knew the area in general, but without recognizing it as a reserve, which influenced their positioning and behavior towards it. Moreover, the diagnosis of the state of conservation of the biodiversity of the area was very useful to determine the nature and distribution of the problems that most affect the reserve, namely: the influx of visitors, the proliferation of exotic species and livestock. In the third chapter, research on the history of conservation allowed to infer that although intended to counteract the effects that threaten the resources of the reserve, the problems identified are consolidated in a context of great complexity due to the great number of factors involved in the reserve. In short, from these chapters it was possible to conclude that the problem does not lie in the lack of actions, or in the ignorance of the existence of the reserve, but in the link that visitors have with nature, the value that they give it to the forest of Córdoba, and, finally, to the lack of public policies that allow the issue to be addressed in the long term.
To complete the work, the design and development of web miniseries "Cazando Conocimientos” (hunting knowledge) was carried out, composed of five auto conclusive chapters based on the issues and conclusions reached in this study, to be implemented in elementary schools of Unquillo next to a guide for the teacher.

The work was done in two different towns of Patagonia Austral (Argentina): 28 de Noviembre and Río Gallegos. They both possess a wealthy flora and fauna, with species of interest to
promote ornithological tourism. Looking for the improvement of the mentioned activity, we identified key species that could give an identity to each place. Then, we determined the
peculiarities of each site, and identified the places for bird watching. The selection of the watching sites was decided trough a series of criteria (frequency of appearance and proximity of the birds, accessibility to the place, quality of the landscape). The main attraction selected to promote 28 de Noviembre was the Andean Condor, while the chosen for Río Gallegos were the shorebirds. In coordination with the local government of each town, we created two Natural Urban Reserves, several paths for the visitors, a condor watching point and an Environmental Interpretation Centre, were created. The satisfactory fulfillment of these activities reveals an
interesting growth perspective for the future, starting from the improvement of the touristic and recreational offerings, in areas with valuable natural resources.

Resumen: En el marco del despliegue de emprendimientos productivos, inmobiliarios, de infraestructura y servicios sobre territorios de extrema fragilidad ambiental ha comenzado a demandarse y promoverse la creación de áreas protegidas en ámbitos urbanos. La Cuenca Matanza Riachuelo (CMR), uno de los territorios más densamente urbanizados e históricamente contaminados en Argentina, cuenta con una serie de reservas naturales, declaradas como tal en respuesta a demandas impulsadas por organizaciones locales, organizaciones no gubernamentales y organismos estatales. A partir de la realización de entrevistas a profundidad, y del análisis de informes producidos por organismos estatales y organizaciones locales, legislación y otras fuentes documentales, este artículo se detiene en los conflictos y controversias acerca de los modos diferenciales de valoración, y usufructo de los bienes y servicios provistos por estos ecosistemas en la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires.

Abstract: In the framework of real state, infrastructure, production, and public utility projects being deployed in areas of extreme environmental fragility, the creation of protected zones in urban areas has started to be demanded and fostered. The Matanza-Riachuelo basin, one of the most densely urbanized and historically contaminated territories in Argentina, holds a set of nature reserves which declaration as such came as a result of demands put forward by local organizations, non-governmental organizations, and public bodies. Through in-depth interviews as well as the analysis of reports produced by public bodies and local organizations, legislation and other documentary sources, this article examines the debates and conflicts around the different ways of appraisal and usufruct of the goods and services that those ecosystems provide for in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires.

Keywords: environmental conflicts, ecosystem services, urban nature reserves, MatanzaRiachuelo basin, Argentina.

Resumo: No âmbito do desenvolvimento de empreendimentos produtivos, imobiliários, de infraestrutura e serviços em territórios de extrema fragilidade ambiental, começou-se a demandar e promover a criação de áreas protegidas em espaços urbanos. A Bacia Matanza-Riachuelo, um dos locais mais densamente urbanizados e historicamente poluídos na Argentina, conta no seu interior com uma série de reservas naturais, declaradas como resultado de demandas impulsionadas por organizações locais, organizações não governamentais e organismos estatais. Depois da realização de profundas entrevistas e da análise de informes produzidos por organismos estatais e organizações locais, legislações e outras fontes documentais, nos detemos nos debates e controvérsias sobre os diferentes modos de valoração e usufruto dos bens e serviços prestados por esses ecossistemas na Região Metropolitana de Buenos Aires.

El presente trabajo fue realizado en el marco del VIII Simposio Internacional y XIV Jornadas Nacionales de Investigación-Acción en Turismo – CONDET 2017. El mismo pretende dar una mirada sobre la relación entre las Áreas Naturales Protegidas (ANP), el turismo y la comunidad isleña, la cual pasa desapercibida en el bajo delta del río Paraná. El turismo puede producir un importante impacto positivo que depende del control, la ordenación, la preparación de los pobladores en un marco planificado; por ser que requiere una baja inversión económica inicial y que se basa en la oferta y demanda turística ya existente.

Frente a la problemática ecológica mundial, los medios de comunicación ejercen un papel fundamental, ya que estos tienen las características de informar, educar, transmitir, formar, opinar o enseñar. Por lo que su desempeño y desarrollo frente a estos temas pueden generar conocimiento y conciencia en la sociedad de una manera
bastante efectiva. La presente investigación está basada en un análisis minucioso de las estrategias comunicativas ligadas al periodismo ecológico y su influencia en el fortalecimiento de una conciencia ambiental que asegure la preservación y defensa de la Reserva Natural, La Ceiba, del cantón Zapotillo, provincia de Loja (Ecuador).
