Resumen: En la actualidad el hablar sobre la necesidad de un manejo adecuado de los residuos sólidos como una forma de adaptación a los nuevos pensamientos ambientales, ha llevado a que este sea un tema cotidiano, en donde surgen distintas formas de aproximación que derivan una amplia gama de herramientas técnicas y educativas. La separación en la fuente tiene como objetivo el optimizar el manejo de los residuos sólidos y para esto se crean planes y programas en los cuales la población para la cual van dirigidos presentan restricciones y una limitada implementación debido a las actitudes y valores de cada comunidad que distan mucho entre cada uno de sus integrantes dando un nivel de complejidad social que debe ser abordado. La solución propuesta en este documento se relaciona al cambio de actitudes y valores dentro de una comunidad específicamente la de El conjunto Residencial Apartamentos Villa Verde en donde se proponen estrategias de educación ambiental desde la educación no formal y se hace referencia a las distintas forma de aproximación y herramientas usadas para implementar las buenas prácticas ambientales dirigidas a los residuos sólidos. .

The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Set against the background of a ‘general crisis’ that is environmental, political and social, this book examines a series of specific intersections between architecture and feminisms, understood in the plural. The collected essays and projects that make up the book follow transversal trajectories that criss-cross between ecologies, economies and technologies, exploring specific cases and positions in relation to the themes of the archive, control, work and milieu. This collective intellectual labour can be located amidst a worldwide depletion of material resources, a hollowing out of political power and the degradation of constructed and natural environments. Feminist positions suggest ways of ethically coping with a world that is becoming increasingly unstable and contested. The many voices gathered here are united by the task of putting critical concepts and feminist design tools to use in order to offer experimental approaches to the creation of a more habitable world. Drawing inspiration from the active archives of feminist precursors, existing and re-imagined, and by way of a re-engagement in the histories, theories and projected futures of critical feminist projects, the book presents a collection of twenty-three essays and eight projects, with the aim of taking stock of our current condition and re-engaging in our precarious environment-worlds.
