Este artigo avalia a contribuição de 75 projetos de Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo (MDL) para a promoção de tecnologias mais limpas no Brasil. A metodologia utilizada foi a revisão da literatura especializada e análise de conteúdo de Documentos de Concepção de Projeto (DCP). Os dados obtidos revelaram que os projetos de MDL contribuem, de forma ainda incipiente para a promoção de tecnologias mais limpas no Brasil, visto que apenas 4% dos projetos de MDL analisados relataram a criação de patentes e inovação durante o processo de desenvolvimento da tecnologia. Ademais, apenas 21% dos projetos analisados caracterizaram-se pela geração de uma tecnologia mais limpa focada na redução da poluição de Gases do Efeito Estufa (GEE) na fonte. Conclui-se que o MDL no Brasil ainda está distante do seu propósito de estimular um modelo de desenvolvimento mais limpo através da cooperação entre países industrializados e em desenvolvimento. Palavras-chave:Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo (MDL); tecnologias mais Limpas; Gases do Efeito Estufa (GEE), Brasil ABSTRACT This paper evaluates the contribution of 75 Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects for cleaner technologies promotion in Brazil. Secondary data acquired from Project Design Documents (PDD) were analyzed using the bibliographical survey of specialized literature. It was verified that such contribution was incipient, as only 4% of the projects reported the creation of patents and of innovation during the technology development process. Just 21% of them were characterized by the generation of cleaner technology aimed at reducing Greenhouse Gases (GHG) pollution at source. In conclusion, CDM projects in Brazil were considered to be distant from encouraging a cleaner model of development through cooperation between industrialized and developing countries. Keywords: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM); Cleaner Technology; Greenhouse Gases (GHG); Brazil.

One of the responses to the threat of global warming is the Kyoto Protocol and the associated Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) to reduce greenhouse gases. South Africa is an ideal country for the implementation of industrial CDM projects, yet lags behind many other countries. This qualitative research determines the factors that cause South Africa to lag other developing countries in the implementation of industrial CDM projects and the interventions that will have the most impact on accelerating implementation. The research involved interviews with 30 experts involved in the South African CDM process. The results identify the factors perceived to be facilitating and inhibiting the use of CDM opportunities and a framework for CDM practitioners to develop an implementation strategy within South African industry is established.

A Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is a market-based climate change instrument used to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. CDM’s have become popular in many developing countries, however given the materially skewed distribution of CDM projects in developing countries it not clear whether CDM projects contribute materially to environmental and economic sustainable development in developing countries. This study examines the effect of CDM on sustainable development in Nigeria by reviewing sample of working CDM projects in Nigeria against globally established sustainable development criteria. Possible amendments to CDM policy are then reviewed based on the findings made during the study.
