Producción agropecuaria argentina y cambio climático: saliendo del laberinto hacia arriba

preprint OA: closed CC-BY-4.0

Abstract

Isn't the severity of environmental problems obvious? Don't scientific results speak for themselves for environmental decisions? Isn't it enough to develop more efficient technologies? The answer to these three questions is no; these are common mistakes that hinder dialogue and obstruct the search for solutions. Understanding it allows us to begin the search for consensus based on a better understanding of the technical obstacles but, above all, political difficulties, today particularly entangled in a context of polarization and misunderstanding exacerbated through social media. Environmental problems are pressing, but having being right based on scientific information alone is not enough. Here, I propose that the way forward may be to agree on common actions even having differing world views, and I exemplify this for two very important issues in agriculture: research policy and participation in international forums. The visions on our contry desirable development path are multiple and should be made explicit and discussed in the political arena to avoid falling into the simplicity of technocracy, with policy swings involving high transaction costs that prevent any effective progress.

Don't scientific results speak for themselves regarding environmental decisions? Isn't it enough to develop more efficient technologies? The answer to these three questions is no; they are common mistakes that hinder dialogue and obstruct the search for solutions. Understanding this allows us to begin the search for consensus based on the best technical knowledge available but, above all, an appreciation of the political difficulties, today particularly entangled in a context of polarization and misunderstanding exacerbated through social media. Environmental problems are pressing, but being right based on scientific information alone is not enough. Here, I propose that the way forward may be to agree on common actions despite groups having differing world views, and I exemplify this for two very important issues in agriculture: research policy and participation in international forums. The visions on our country most desirable development path are multiple and should be made explicit and discussed in the political arena to avoid falling into the simplicity of technocracy, thus avoiding policy swings involving high transaction costs that prevent any effective progress.

Biografia do Autor Roberto Javier Fernández, University of Buenos Aires Cuarenta años de experiencia docente en Agronomía y Ciencias Ambientales. Su trabajo de investigación se enfocó en los impactos ambientales de los agroecosistemas en términos de agua, carbono y energía con énfasis en regiones áridas y semiáridas. Durante los últimos 20 años giró su interés hacia los marcos de abordaje de las interacciones entre dieta humana, ambiente y sociedad, y los discursos en los conflictos entre modelos alternativos de producción. Dirigió o codirigió 4 tesis doctorales y 2 de maestría defendidas. Autor de 50 publicaciones en revistas con arbitraje internacional, la gran mayoría en coautoría con estudiantes y tesistas de grado y posgrado. Actualmente es Profesor Titular de Ecología en FAUBA, Investigador Principal del Conicet en el IFEVA, y coordina el Doctorado en Ciencias Ambientales de la UBA.
