Açudes urbanos da cidade de Campina Grande/PB: histórico ambiental potencialidade e resistência como fator de desenvolvimento social e econômico.

Abstract

The evolution of Campina Grande as an important pole in the current area of development occurs in parallel with the depreciation of the legacy of urban dams that constitute a source of natural resources and scenic beauty of the city. Today these water bodies are disappearing, changing the geographic structure of our city, and the crisis of perception of its real importance is very real. We can observe the high degree of urbanization in several Brazilian cities, notably found that generally arise near water sources which derive their sustainability aquifer, and thus develop without taking into concern for this precious water resource. With the development and no public policy, cities exploit their natural resources and degraded in such a way that make them viable, its use and quality of natural resources. Through literature searches and questionnaires in the population, we can observe the object of study in what happens characterization of their behavior and social responsibilities. Where it appears that the issue of renewable natural resources corresponds to the primary drive interdisciplinary, but this really puts in context the issue of risk management representative of the management of emerging cities seeking at all costs its full urban development and social capital. So build an urban environmental history of dams in Campina Grande, PB, before the evolution of the city, is a reference to observe the potential and strength as a factor of social and economic development that represents the situational need for quality of life its residents. The mainstream media has a number of technologies and practical issues that may be relevant to the environment. The Inconsistent form of urban development, proves to be ineffective in the usual demand of water resources, and also practical issues for the population that live in these ecosystems and their uses interactive form of continuous, thus sharing with his own act of contributing to intervene these springs. With the knowledge though, although very expressive, the population can and should take means that would mitigate the human impacts derived from their actions. The involvement of all segments of society become essential to the use and management of these watersheds, thereby applying a practice that may perpetuate or at least maintain conditions in accordance with the laws prevailing quality of life of residents and the elements components of these ecosystems. Therefore this study delimit a posture that seeks to achieve the terms, rules and legal concepts aware of our attitudes.
