Dear readers,

We are starting on one more volume of the Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy. As other times, launching a new graph proposal that expresses the relationship of the Brazilian Society of Pharmacognosy with the environment and the rich Brazilian biodiversity. This year we will lead off a new politics concerning the environmental preservation, using in all our journals, correspondences and file material, exclusively 100% recycled paper. It will be the first scientific journal of the collection SCIELO to be printed with that concern. We hope that our initiative lead other national and even international journals to follow our thought line in relation to the nature. It is known that each 50 kilos of used paper and transformed into new paper avoids the cut of a tree or still, that each ton of recycled paper avoided the dropping of 20 trees.

The Brazilian Society of Pharmacognosy launchs, therefore, a campaign among all its members and the readers of the Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy aiming at creating or reinforcing the worry of all with the environment and with our biodiversity.

Another innovation for this year is that, from now on, the site of the Brazilian Society of Pharmacognosy (http://www.sbfgnosia.org.br) will follow the graph proposal of the Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy annually, in other words, it will present a visual feature that accompanies the one of its current volume. We believe that this fact will strengthen much more the link among the Society, its members and our journal.

We hope that in this new year and new stage we can continue counting on the support and collaboration of all that have been helping us since we assumed the Society and the Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy. It is very important to point out that, without that support, nothing would have been accomplished. We reiterate our sincere gratefulness.

It is also necessary to register in this moment that the search for the journal by the Brazilian and foreign authors has been growing a lot in the last years. There is now the need of the authors’ understanding due to the increase in the period between the submission and publication of their works. We hope that it is not a factor to discourage the search for our Journal. We are doing our best to make that period to be the briefest possible. We will work aiming at emitting a supplement for the volume 18, with the objective of reducing the long wait list, publishing, in a reasonable period, our authors’ valuable scientific works.

The Editors
