Análise das políticas do combate ao desmatamento e mudanças climáticas no Estado do Pará (2018/2022)

Abstract

Deforestation is a constant and highly relevant issue in the State of Pará. As its advance remains gradual, it is important to question and investigate the policies developed and applied in this context. For this, in the course of the study, a brief environmental history at the national and state levels is explained, listing some key concepts and policies on the subject. Then, the disposition of the State of Pará in the rates of deforestation is elucidated, therefore, an analysis is carried out on how the current management of the Government of the State of Pará is dealing with deforestation and climate change in the region, through the policies created and its commitment to sustainable development. The methodology was based on a bibliographical review and document analysis of government plans and normative documents, making it possible to verify in the study that despite the gradual deforestation rates, the policies applied at the state level only gained prominence and notoriety today, making possible the great challenge of reversing deforestation rates.
