A assinatura do contrato de energia de reserva entre a Diamante Geração de Energia e o Governo Federal, com validade até 2040, foi apontada como uma das principais conquistas de 2025 para o setor carbonífero catarinense. O acordo garante segurança jurídica e econômica a uma cadeia produtiva responsável por cerca de 21 mil empregos diretos e indiretos e por uma movimentação anual estimada em R$ 6 bilhões na economia regional. A avaliação foi feita pela presidente do Sindicato da Indústria de Extração de Carvão do Estado de Santa Catarina (Siecesc – Carvão +), Astrid Barato, durante entrevista concedida nesta terça-feira (23) ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias. Segundo ela, o ano foi marcado por avanços importantes tanto na área econômica quanto ambiental, consolidando um novo momento para o setor. Entre os destaques, Astrid ressaltou o desenvolvimento de projetos de pesquisa e inovação no Centro Tecnológico da SATC, voltados à transição e à sustentabilidade da atividade carbonífera. As iniciativas incluem estudos sobre captura de carbono, além da produção de fertilizantes por meio de zeólitas obtidas a partir das cinzas do carvão, ampliando o aproveitamento de resíduos e agregando valor à cadeia produtiva. Outro ponto relevante foi o avanço na Ação Civil Pública (ACP) do Carvão, com a retomada das reuniões do Grupo Técnico de Assessoramento à Execução da Sentença (GTA), por determinação da Justiça Federal. O grupo discute parâmetros técnicos para a recuperação ambiental das áreas impactadas pela mineração no passado. Atualmente, cerca de 55% dessas áreas já passaram ou estão passando por obras de recuperação ambiental, resultado considerado significativo pelo setor. O Siecesc – Carvão + encerra o ano também com progressos nas tratativas para a liberação do uso de áreas da ACP localizadas em regiões densamente urbanizadas, o que pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento ordenado desses espaços. No campo social, o sindicato mantém o projeto Carvão Amigo, que presta auxílio a 12 entidades filantrópicas do Sul Catarinense, além de apoiar iniciativas como o Proerd, da Polícia Militar, os Protetores Ambientais da Polícia Militar Ambiental, o Projeto Golfinhos, do Corpo de Bombeiros, e o Pelotão da Esperança. Já no eixo esportivo, o Carvão + atua como patrocinador master do projeto Tigrinhos e do Campeonato Regional da Larm. Para Astrid Barato, os resultados de 2025 demonstram que o setor carbonífero segue em transformação, buscando conciliar desenvolvimento econômico, responsabilidade ambiental e compromisso social com a região Sul de Santa Catarina.
What can you learn when you analyze hundreds of thousands of ski turns? What does it tell you about ski technique? And what can be learned about the gear you use to make those turns — and the gear we test and evaluate?

O Grupo Técnico de Assessoramento à Execução da Sentença (GTA) da Ação Civil Pública do Carvão (ACP do Carvão) chegou a um consenso que pode mudar o cenário de uso e ocupação do solo em áreas intensamente urbanizadas do Sul catarinense. A proposta prevê a flexibilização do uso de terrenos localizados em quadras com 70% ou mais de ocupação, desde que a consolidação urbana tenha ocorrido até a última reunião do GTA. A medida surge como resposta a um dilema histórico: milhares de famílias vivem sobre áreas afetadas pelos rejeitos da extração de carvão, em locais que, embora tecnicamente inadequados, tornaram-se consolidados ao longo das décadas. A juíza da 4ª Vara Federal de Criciúma, Camila Lapolli, avaliou que remover essas comunidades traria prejuízo social significativo sem gerar benefício ambiental proporcional, justificando a flexibilização. Apesar do consenso entre os membros do GTA, a flexibilização ainda depende da publicação da ata da reunião e de um levantamento que identificará os imóveis aptos a se enquadrar nas novas regras. O Ministério Público Federal (MPF) será responsável por elaborar uma minuta de termo de ciência e compromisso, que deverá ser assinada pelos proprietários no momento da solicitação de licenciamento. Nele, o morador será informado sobre a existência de rejeitos no terreno e os riscos associados. A expectativa é que esses procedimentos avancem a partir de 2026. A flexibilização é vista como um avanço para a liberação gradual e planejada das áreas da ACP do Carvão, permitindo que municípios reorganizem seus territórios e reintegrem essas áreas ao tecido urbano com nova função social. O GTA ressalta, porém, que a medida é pontual e criteriosa, não se aplicando a toda a extensão da ACP. O objetivo é resolver situações consolidadas, não abrir margens para ocupações irregulares futuras. Em entrevista ao Cruz de Malta Notícias nesta quinta-feira (4), Marcio Zanuz, diretor técnico do Siecesc-Carvão+ e integrante do acompanhamento da ACP desde 2004, comentou os impactos da flexibilização.

I have to admit that one of my core beliefs about moguls was challenged during this most recent conversation with Olympic Moguls silver medalist Matt Graham. For a long time, I believed that more ski snow contact was the ultimate sign of a good bump skierl. But in this open and honest conversation, Matt explains why the opposite is true when you want speed and rhythm in a mogul course.I was working with Carv at Hintertux when I met up with him, and he talked me through the key ideas the best bump skiers in the world rely on plus a whole lot more

Uma emenda aprovada no Congresso Nacional garantirá a continuidade da cadeia produtiva do carvão mineral nacional, trazendo alívio e estabilidade para o setor energético do Sul de Santa Catarina e de outros estados produtores. A Emenda nº 37, anexada à Medida Provisória 1304/2025, assegura a contratação de todas as usinas termelétricas a carvão até o ano de 2040. A proposta é de autoria do senador Esperidião Amin (PP-SC) e foi aprovada após ampla discussão na Câmara dos Deputados e no Senado Federal. Com a medida, o setor carbonífero — que é estratégico para a geração de energia e para a economia regional — ganha previsibilidade e segurança jurídica. A prorrogação do funcionamento das termelétricas também deve garantir manutenção de empregos e investimentos na cadeia produtiva, que envolve milhares de trabalhadores no Sul catarinense. Em entrevista ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias nesta sexta-feira (7), o presidente da Associação Brasileira do Carbono Sustentável (ABCS), Fernando Zancan, destacou que a aprovação da emenda representa um marco para o futuro do carvão brasileiro. Com a nova legislação, o governo federal deverá agora regulamentar a contratação das usinas e definir as diretrizes para o uso responsável do carvão mineral, equilibrando desenvolvimento econômico e compromisso ambiental.

O Projeto de Lei Complementar (PLP) 66/2025, de autoria da deputada federal Ana Paula Lima (PT), que propõe aposentadoria especial para os trabalhadores da mineração de carvão, deve ser votado na próxima semana na Comissão de Previdência, Assistência Social, Infância, Adolescência e Família da Câmara dos Deputados. A garantia da votação foi confirmada pelo presidente da comissão, deputado Ruy Carneiro. A proposta reconhece as condições de risco e insalubridade permanentes enfrentadas por quem atua na extração e beneficiamento do carvão mineral, tanto no subsolo quanto na superfície. O texto altera a Lei nº 8.213/91, que trata dos planos de benefícios da Previdência Social, criando regras diferenciadas para a aposentadoria desses profissionais, como forma de valorização e reconhecimento pela natureza árdua e perigosa do trabalho. Durante esta semana, uma comitiva de sindicalistas de Lauro Müller, Siderópolis e Criciúma esteve em Brasília para dialogar com parlamentares e reforçar a importância da aprovação do projeto. O grupo também participou de reuniões no Ministério do Meio Ambiente, onde tratou de temas relacionados à Transição Energética Justa, que busca equilibrar a redução do uso de combustíveis fósseis com a preservação dos empregos e do desenvolvimento das regiões carboníferas. Em entrevista ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias, o presidente da Federação Interestadual dos Trabalhadores em Extração de Carvão do Sul do País (Fetiec), Genoir José dos Santos, o Foquinha, atualizou as informações sobre o andamento do projeto e destacou o engajamento das lideranças regionais. A expectativa das lideranças sindicais é de que, com a aprovação na comissão, o projeto siga tramitando e entre para votação no plenário da Câmara, representando um avanço histórico na luta pelos direitos dos mineiros de carvão do Sul de Santa Catarina e de outras regiões do país.
Uma delegação formada por entidades ligadas à Ação Civil Pública (ACP) do Carvão realizou, na última semana, uma viagem técnica ao estado da Pensilvânia, nos Estados Unidos. A comitiva visitou áreas que passaram por obras de recuperação ambiental e conheceu usinas que utilizam rejeitos como combustível para a geração de energia, entre outras iniciativas. O estado norte-americano foi uma das referências adotadas para orientar o processo de recuperação das áreas impactadas pela mineração no Sul catarinense. De acordo com dados mais recentes, cerca de 55% das áreas degradadas já passaram ou estão passando por intervenções de recuperação em Santa Catarina. O engenheiro ambiental da Carbonífera Catarinense, Eduardo Gaidzinski Rabello, que integrou a delegação, participou de entrevista ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias nesta sexta-feira (26). Ele destacou a relevância da experiência internacional.
A cidade de Criciúma vive um momento histórico em 2025: a comemoração dos 100 anos de sua emancipação político-administrativa. Como parte da programação, neste sábado (13), o público terá uma noite especial de fé, música e emoção com a apresentação gratuita do Padre Fábio de Melo. O show está marcado para às 21h, no Parque das Nações Cincinato Naspolini, no bairro Próspera. Antes da apresentação, os fiéis poderão participar de uma missa celebrada pelo bispo da Diocese de Criciúma, Dom Jacinto Inácio Flach, e pelo padre Antônio Vander da Silva. A cerimônia religiosa promete preparar o espírito da comunidade para o espetáculo do artista católico, conhecido em todo o Brasil por sua música e mensagens de espiritualidade. O show do Padre Fábio de Melo é apenas uma das muitas atrações projetadas para marcar o centenário de Criciúma, oficialmente celebrado em 4 de novembro. A prefeitura, em parceria com a Fundação Cultural de Criciúma (FCC), organizou uma extensa programação que vai além das festividades, buscando valorizar a história da cidade e projetar o seu futuro. Em entrevista ao programa Cruz de Malta Notícias, a presidente da FCC, Cristiane Maccari Uliana Zapelini, destacou o empenho da organização. Com a expectativa de reunir cerca de 30 mil pessoas no Parque das Nações, a programação deste sábado reforça o espírito de união, fé e identidade cultural que marcam o centenário da Capital Brasileira do Carvão.

O Centro Tecnológico SATC, em Criciúma, recebeu nesta semana a visita de uma comitiva da Agência Nacional de Mineração (ANM) para conhecer de perto os projetos e pesquisas desenvolvidos pelo setor carbonífero. O grupo foi recepcionado pelo vice-presidente do Sindicato da Indústria de Extração de Carvão do Estado de Santa Catarina (Siecesc-Carvão+), Valcir Zanette, e por diretores das carboníferas do Sul do estado. O encontro também contou com a presença do gerente regional da ANM em Santa Catarina, José Augusto Simões Neto. A programação começou com uma apresentação do diretor técnico do Siecesc-Carvão+, Márcio Zanuz, sobre a cadeia produtiva do carvão e as ações voltadas para a Transição Energética Justa. Na sequência, os visitantes percorreram as plantas piloto de pesquisas nas áreas de terras raras, zeólitas e captura de carbono. Segundo Zanette, a visita foi fundamental para apresentar os avanços obtidos nos últimos anos e a forma como o setor vem atuando. “A ANM tem um papel decisivo na mineração, e essa aproximação é importante para mostrar o que está sendo feito e o que ainda está por vir”, destacou, em entrevista ao Cruz de Malta Notícias nesta sexta-feira (15). De acordo com o Siecesc, a parceria com a SATC tem permitido o desenvolvimento de iniciativas que buscam alinhar a mineração às novas demandas energéticas e ambientais, reforçando o papel estratégico do carvão no processo de transição energética no Brasil.

Carv has been listening, and some big updates are on the way. In this episode, I catch up with the team to hear what they've been working on over summer — including smarter coaching tools, improved SkiIQ feedback, and new features that actually help you learn, not just track data.

Lots of people dream of starting a ski or snowboard or some type of company in the outdoor industry. But how do you go about actually doing that, and really getting a company off the ground? At Blister Summit 2025, I talked with four individuals who had the dream — and the audacity — to start their own companies: Klem Branner, Venture Snowboards; Will Ritter, Spark R&D; Jamie Grant, CARV; and Cobey Nash, AlpenFlow Design. Today you'll hear them talk about the highs, the lows, and the breakthroughs that come with starting a company — and the arguably even more challenging work of keeping a company going.RELATED LINKS:Get Covered: BLISTER+TOPICS & TIMES:New Blister Cinematic Ep w/ Cody (1:00)New BLISTER+ Members (2:01)Founder Introductions (3:42)How Long from Idea to Launch?

How can technology enhance our adventure experiences on skis? Is it possible that ski coaches, instructors and guides can be replaced by technology all together?In this episode we touch on these questions as we explore Carv with Morgan Engel and Alex Jackson. Carv is a small device that skiers can affix to their ski boots that analyzes their movement patterns as they ski. The data that Carv collects is uploaded to a user-friendly app on a Smart Phone. From here, users can either analyze the data and metrics themselves. Users can also select one of the coaching modes that provides targeted feedback. This makes Carv the largest ski school in the world by hours taught!Alex Jackson is the VP of Marketing for Carv and is based in the UK. Morgan Engel is a PSIC Level 4, CSIA Level 4 and PSIA Level 3 ski instructor and a PSIC Level 4 Licensed Professional Trainer in Whistler, British Columbia. Morgan has been working with Carv as an Ambassador and Advisor for the past six years. Morgan has also helped develop the Carv Instructor Certification offered through the Professional Ski Instructors of Canada.Morgan has been working with Carv as an Ambassador and Advisor for the past six years. Morgan has also helped develop the Carv Instructor Certification offered through the Professional Ski Instructors of Canada.Alex Jackson and Morgan Engel share their insights on what Carv is and how it can be used as a development tool for not just skiers, but by instructors, guides and coaches.TakeawaysInnovative: Carv is definitely a well thought out skill development tool for skiers that adds the possibility of gamifying skiing by trying to reach higher and higher scores. It is also nice to have a tool that measures your performance objectively with weight being placed on your performance instead of your style.Does Not Replace Snow Sports Professionals: There is still an important role for instructors when it comes to interpreting and communicating the data and structuring development. Carv also isn't going to tell you where the best snow is on a given run or how to prepare for what you are going to encounter before you get there.Adventure Enhancer: Carv is an excellent example of where technology can enhance the user experience. Other technologies that I can think of are apps like Stava and Gaia and devices like GoPros and even Smart Phones.Importance of Milestones: To keep us motivated and in a positive space, we need be able to break progress into small pieces. The one thing that Carv does well that other similar technologies should take note of is pointing out each time the user has reached a new level. It might be improving a certain metric or achieving an improved score. Guest BioAlex Jackson is based in London, UK and is the co-founder and VP of Marketing for Carv.

On this episode, we chat with Ying Liu about the 2025 PSIA-AASI Women's Summit at Solitude, an event dedicated to skill development, inclusivity, and connection. Ying dives into this year's theme, “Connecting Through Power and Grace,” and how it applies to both skiing and teaching. We explore key takeaways from the event, including technical coaching insights, the role of telemark skiing in building a beginner's mindset, and how proper boot fitting can dramatically impact performance. Ying also shares her experience skiing with PSIA-AASI national team members, testing the latest ski technology like CARV sensors, and how a unique coaching analogy involving a rodeo clown helped improve lateral movement on snow. Plus, we discuss what's ahead for the 2026 Women's Summit in Steamboat and how the event continues to evolve to support and inspire female snowsports professionals.

For the first time in company history, Armada is releasing a ski boot: the AR ONE. It's a project that's been in development for five years, and this release comes with a number of questions, like: why do a boot? And why now? What sort of boot is the AR ONE, how is it different from what's out there, and … who's it for? We discuss all of these questions and more with Matt Rihm, Armada's VP of Product, and Bransford Briggs, Ski Boot Product Manager.RELATED LINKS:CARV: getcarv.com (use code BLISTER32)Blister Rec Shop: Boot MechanicsGEAR:30 Ep #327 w/ Boot MechanicsBLISTER+: Get Yourself CoveredBlister Summit 2025TOPICS & TIMES:Boot Mechanics (1:20)Carv (2:11)The New Armada AR ONE (6:37)A “Hybrid Cabrio” Boot (12:40)Matt's Background (14:50)Bransford's Background (15:34)Development of the Boot (18:10)Heel Hold (21:26)Liner (24:09)Fit (25:30)Instep & the 2nd Buckle (28:33)Redneck Engineering (31:56)Plastic (34:28)Fine-Tuning Flex (39:00)Range of AR ONE Models (44:51)Who's It For?

Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan discuss all the news from 2024. [2:16] The success of Pixels was an ongoing trend in 2024; but it wasn't always about DAUWs. [2:35] Heroes of Mavia was the first big game and token launch of 2024 but it didn't scale. [4:10] In 2024, we saw a lot of blockchain games launching through app stores but no big hits. [6:10] Browser vs app stores and PC gaming stores remains a key business decision. [8:44] A lot of meme-y game coins such as MON, PORTAL, CARV, XAI launched in Q1. [11:30] There was a lot of news about chain migration - so many new L2 and L3 chains. [13:00] In Q2, there was a big change in sentiment with game token prices tanking. [14:11] The rise of KOLs, who encouraged retail crypto to invest in new tokens with often bad results. [16:05] The rise of Telegram and TON as a strong marketing channel for blockchain games. [17:46] Another nascent year for Immutable: Guild of Guardians was not a success. [22:17] But in Immutable's defence... 4 million Immutable Passport wallet sign-ups. [28:28] In Q3, the issue of bots became a problem esp. in respect to airdrops and token rewards. [30:09] What are you trying to do with your blockchain game when it comes to giving out value? [32:04] Does it matter if bots or AI agents are paying $10 to play your game? [32:30] The other thing in Q3 was the start of successful games on Ronin - Wild Forest, Lumiterra etc. [34:56] Pretty much every game launched on Ronin has got +100,000 DAUWs in testing. [37:19] Should we view console game Off The Grid as a success? [44:22] Whatever happened to The Sandbox? [45:25] CCP Game's EVE Frontier is now in closed alpha testing. [46:59] What's significant is these projects are very serious about the value of blockchain in games. [49:45] More generally, the US presidential election was the clear pivot point for crypto in 2024. [52:51] Investment into the sector was down on 2023 but around $1 billion.

As artificial intelligence reshapes our world at an unprecedented pace, the United States is being pressured to act. However, with Congress failing to pass meaningful AI legislation despite introducing over 100 bills, we face mounting challenges in governing this transformative technology. Paulo Carvão from Harvard’s Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government shares how, moving forward, the interplay between state initiatives, executive actions, and legislative gridlock will all influence how we'll shape AI's future in our democracy.
Na pequena cidade de Palenque quase ninguém sabia ler. Com o propósito de ajudar a irmã a decifrar as cartas que recebia, e contando com a ajuda do dono da mercearia, a menina começa a descobrir o que as letras e as palavras significam, e não demora muito para que um mundo novo de possibilidades se abra para ela e para todos os habitantes de seu povoado. Essa é a história que a mãe conta ao filho ao se lembrar da própria infância e de como aprendeu a ler e a escrever.

In episode 142, I am excited to introduce the topic of AI to the show. Technology plays a massive role in our daily lives, but also in shaping the outdoor industry and our experiences with the natural world. With AI applications on the rise, there are many ways that AI can be detrimental to the environment as well as to our interpretation of the world and art. I will eventually do an episode on the environmental impacts and long-term effects of AI and data centers, but for this episode, we wanted to take a bit of a positive spin and look at some ways that AI can be used to optimize our time spent outdoors. To help explain all things AI and provide a more positive outlook on the future of AI technology, I had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with Jamie Grant. Jamie is the co-founder and CEO of Carv, the digital ski coach. He has a background in Physics and a PhD in Statistics. Jamie came late to skiing, starting when he was 18. After falling in love with the sport, he has dedicated his career to developing Carv to help elevate technique and overall enjoyment in the sport.
