Remark: I am not asking for job, I am tenured professor at Brazilian state university, look my project-page at the university, www.sobralmatematica.org. I am mathematician (Brazilian) changing to differential equations (I am a functional analyst) exactly because of warming and ecological problems. For a scientist in the 3rd world, one of the basic difficulties is literature, hence my question, is possible to have access through IPRD of literature so I can more rapidly be useful with my Math into discussing, teaching other, in a word - be a node in this net all of us want to build to change the trend of the development in a way we can save our planet? What else I can do? in very particular, the huge literature in Schwartzmans's report? Thanks for you attention. Tarcisio I have been reading Schwartzman report and I am fully interested into working with you on this line.

With a mathematical model we demonstrate that this transition is technically plausible using modest inputs of existing fossil fuel reserves in the creation of a global solar power infrastructure even with existing solar technologies such as wind turbines. In addition, this global power capacity can likewise provide energy consumption per person levels for all of humanity consistent with high human development requirements….” [...] [...] Report: A Solar Transition is Possible – “Arguably no challenge is more serious for the world’s future than bringing about a rapid decarbonation of the energy infrastructure with the possibility of preventing the onset of catastrophic climate change.
