Estamos chegando ao fim de uma era, do simples extrativismo, da energia fácil – a lenha, o petróleo, o carvão -, e entrando na era das formas sustentáveis e inteligentes de produzir, administrar e consumir energia. Felizmente, temos hoje as tecnologias e os recursos para empreender a construção de um novo paradigma energético.” Book Launch: Desirable New World 2042 (Lala DeHeinzelin) FREE DOWNLOAD www.desejavelmundonovo.com.br ICIM 2011 - INTERNACIONAL CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION MANAGEMENT • l ENTREPRENEURSHIP Innovation and Sustainability EINDHOBEIN THIS YEAR Collaboration and partnership with WUHAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY of China, the YAMAGUCHI UNIVERSITY of Japan, the TILBURG UNIVERSITY of the Netherlands and the PONTIFICAL CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF SAO PAULO Yearly International Conferences on Innovation and Sustainability (Netherlands, São Paulo, China and now Japan) www.pucsp.br/icim ICIM 2011 - INTERNACIONAL CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION MANAGEMENT • l ZENNOVATION The Ways of Ancient Wisdom Arnoldo de Hoyos We can´t discover new oceans unless we have courage to lose sight of the shore ICIM 2011 JAPAN • http://www.pucsp.br/icim/ingles/index.html Andre Gide Futures Survey – 50 years Futures Survey – 50 years Please rate what are the chances you feel that the following statements may be likely to happen in 50 years ( 0 to 100%) : 1 – The energy available and being used almost everywhere will be renewable.
