Antimicrobial-resistant infections are predicted to become the second biggest cause of death worldwide by 2050. Despite increasing investment in the development of new antimicrobials, awareness campaigns on antimicrobial misuse and abuse, and monitoring of antimicrobial use and resistance in animals, humans and the environment, antimicrobial resistance continues to grow and the last three decades have not seen even one novel antimicrobial class reach the market. Could the answer lie in a 'Trojan horse' strategy to disrupt a natural physiological process common to all bacteria?

The European Commission proposed to expand the scope of the existing EU rules on the deployment of intelligent transport systems (ITS) in road transport to cover new and emerging challenges and to make essential ITS services mandatory across the EU. The proposal seeks to resolve problems stemming from the lack of interoperability and continuity of the existing applications and services, but also from the low level of availability and sharing of the data supporting ITS services. Finally, it aims to ensure effective concertation and cooperation among stakeholders.

International maritime transport is the backbone of the global economy. However, vessels release emissions that pollute the air and contribute significantly to global warming. As shipping is forecast to grow, reducing these emissions is urgent, in order not to undermine emissions-reducing efforts in other areas, to keep humans healthy, preserve the environment and limit climate change.

Il benessere degli animali trasportati

Os transportes fluviais são uma boa opção para deslocar mercadorias não urgentes. Mas como reduzir as emissões poluentes que provocam? Os pequenos cargueiros produzem menos emissões poluentes do que os camiões, por exemplo. Mas os transportes rodoviários estão a modernizar-se mais rapidamente. Uma companhia romena, a Navrom, que opera cerca de 500 embarcações no rio Danúbio, colabora com um projeto de cientistas europeus, chamado Prominent, para tornar a sua frota mais amiga do ambiente.

Futuris: Como tornar o transporte fluvial de mercadorias mais ecológico?

Los buques de carga son relativamente ecológicos si los comparamos con las emisiones que producen los camiones en un trayecto similar. Pero el transporte por carretera se está modernizando. La flota tiene que ponerse al día para seguir siendo competitiva. En Rumanía, una compañía de navegación fluvial que opera cerca de 500 buques a lo largo del Danubio, participa en un proyecto de investigación europeo para hacer que los buques sean más ecológicos
