After Donation from Eneva, BNDES and Its Program Entitled “Matchfunding Saving Lives” the Delivery of the New Oxygen Plant for the Hospital of Roraima Happens Soon

The Matchfunding Saving Lives program from the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) will deliver, in the coming days, an oxygen plant with a production capacity of 30 cubic meters per hour and storage cylinders with a capacity of 10 cubic meters to the General Hospital of Roraima, the largest public hospital in the capital Boa Vista. Scheduled for delivery by February 25, the plant can service up to 30 ICU beds for Covid-19.

Eneva, an integrated energy generation company, donated R$ 800 thousand to the Matchfunding Saving Lives program, which aims to match every real received with another real donated by the bank.

“BNDES and Eneva set a great example of how, together, we can save many lives,” said Marcus Cardoso Santiago, head of the Impact Relationship Department with the Corporate Sector at BNDES.

According to Health Secretary Marcelo Lopes, the plant has a production capacity of one thousand cubic meters per day – half of what the state currently needs. It produces O2 from electricity, and therefore, the secretary asserts that there should be no reduction in spending.

“The initiative came from Eneva, and we [government] knowing that they had ISO containers [metal boxes], requested their use to source oxygen from elsewhere because they served the state of Amazonas and offered to donate a plant,” Marcelo Lopes said.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

Hidden beneath a small entrance in Namibia’s underground, the largest underground lake in the world is the size of 2 football fields, 264 meters deep, and even has rare animals that survive without sunlight.

Heir bought 23,000 degraded acres in the Scottish Highlands, fenced the area, planted nearly 1 million native trees, and transformed empty mountains into a forest officially recognized after meeting 15 evaluation criteria over 20 years.
