  I got my BSc in Economics in 1992, at the UFSM, Brazil; my MSc in Environmental Sciences/Management in 2000, at Wageningen University, Netherlands; and my doctoral degree in Forestry/Forest Management, in 2007, at the UFSM, Brazil. I have been working as a Professor in the Department of Economics of the UFSM, Brazil, since 1992. At present, I teach, at an undergraduate level, a few courses: Ecological Economics, Monetary Economics, Pollution Economics and Environmental Macroeconomics; in the Postgraduate Programme in Economics and Development, I am in charge of the course on Sustainability Economics. My research interests are in Ecological Economics, Environmental and Resource Economics, Environmental Input-Output Analysis and several fields related to economics and the environment. Some recent publications are "Carbon Bio-Economics and Forests: Getting the BESF Out of Climate Policy" (http://www.intechopen.com/books/climate-change-socioeconomic-effects/carbon-bio-economics-and-forests-getting-the-besf-out-of-climate-policy) and "REDD Roses for a Green Lady: Target Setting for Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon" (http://www.intechopen.com/books/co2-sequestration-and-valorization/redd-roses-for-a-green-lady-target-setting-for-deforestation-in-the-brazilian-amazon).
