Avaliação do desmatamento ao longo da aerorovia entre as cidades Boa Vista – Brasília

Abstract

Based on what was observed in the news, where the current president of Brazil states that the stretch between Roraima and the Federal District along the airway connecting the two cities has no deforestation based on the results of scientific research and data from national institutes, and taking into account Considering the accelerated growth in Amazonian deforestation in recent years, the present study will gather information that will be collected and analyzed in order to answer the following question: Is there growth in deforestation in the stretch it comprises between the cities of Roraima and Distrito Federal? In view of this, this study was built with the aim of collaborating with the literature by providing some answers to the worldwide debate on environmental degradation in Brazil, notably in the Amazon region, through the creation of a model with empirical application that adds the possible political- socioeconomic and demographic factors of deforestation in this region. In addition, the objective is to establish the effects of socioeconomic factors, as well as the competence of governmental actions on deforestation and to establish possible scenarios through comparisons between data obtained from monitoring institutions for this type of activity.
