Brazil Is One Step Away From Issuing Visas for Americans, Canadians, Japanese, and Australians Without Requiring Reciprocity. The Decree Would Be Made Possible Thanks to a Loophole in the Immigration Law; Brazilians Still Need a Visa to Visit Those Countries.

Ready to be approved by President Jair Bolsonaro is the draft of the presidential decree that will allow visas for Americans, Canadians, Japanese, and Australians without requiring reciprocity from this group of countries considered strategic for tourism in Brazil. Tourists from these countries will be able to enter Brazil without applying for authorization, and the same will not happen for Brazilians wishing to enter those countries. The non-requirement of reciprocity has a loophole in Article 9 of the Immigration Law, which states that the regulations provide for hypotheses and conditions of reciprocal or unilateral visa exemption. The topic was discussed in a meeting attended by the Minister of Tourism, Marcelo Álvaro Antônio, and the Minister of Foreign Relations, Ernesto Araújo.

The changes were attempted during Michel Temer’s administration but were blocked by the Itamaraty. Opposed to the measure, former chancellor Aloysio Nunes managed to prevent its implementation, even with the change in the law. The government then adopted an electronic visa for these four countries.

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

Goodbye traditional washing machine: Panasonic surprises housewives with the NA-G5 featuring four drums, a 13 kg washer and dryer, a 12 kg dryer, independent mini washers, a heat pump, and a 4-in-1 system awarded at the German Design Award.

While cities spend fortunes patching potholes and tons of plastic become waste, the Netherlands transforms over 218,000 recycled cups into a modular bike path that can conceal drainage, cables, and pipes.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

An 11-year-old girl from Minas Gerais finds a simpler way to calculate square roots, using only basic operations, and transforms a calculation feared by many students into an example of mathematical creativity both inside and outside school in Brazil on social media.

Researchers discover that the melting of Antarctica is expected to advance across the continent, grow by more than 10% by 2100, and increase the risk of collapse in ice shelves after unprecedented 1 km climate models reveal highly vulnerable areas.

The end of plaster in construction: new technology emerges in projects with a mineral panel resistant to water, fire, and impact, used in facades and walls to reduce maintenance, prevent rotting, and extend the durability of dry systems in civil construction.

Without bricks and masons: giant robots build a 345 m² building in just 26 days with 3D printing, technological concrete, solar energy, and walls nearly 10 meters high in the Saudi Arabian desert.

Portugal installs two giant underwater sockets to draw water from the Atlantic and create a €107.9 million desalination plant in the Algarve capable of producing 43.2 million liters of potable water per day with ocean intake 2 km from the coast.

Japan enters the Guinness Book by showcasing to the world the smallest manned helicopter ever created: a 70 kg aircraft using four 125 cc engines, 4-meter coaxial rotors, reaching 90 km/h and climbing to 1,000 meters without a tail rotor.
