Diagnosis of an enviromental system

The human survival is closely connected to the use we do of our natural resources existing in our planet, in a way that this connection depends on the consumption habits and apprehension of these goods.During the last century (XX), we noticed a boom of technology and a great changing in the habits of the world population.With the information globalization and knowledge, the environmental situation in the planet was more evident, and we concluded that the mankind should rethink the model of exploration of the natural resources.(Stockholm, Rio-92, Agenda 21 among others), and even the social paradigms.The proposal of this work is make a factual approach in this ocean of knowledge and discussions about the environmental problems currently presented in our society.It was chosen as a study unity the Hydrographic basin, specifically the physical processes presented at Ribeirão das Marrecas micro basin river.Collecting the data, basically a physical environmental inventory, characterizing the environment as most detailed as possible of the micro basin by consulting the cartographic documents available and bibliographic information.To the developing of the micro basin hydrographical of Ribeirão das Marrecas, it was necessary the confection of several themes letters.Each item of the inventory was translated into basic themes maps: geological, geo morphological, downward slopes maps, hydrographic, climatologically, the use of the soil and pedological.The intervention unit "hydrographical basin" presents Sociedade & Natureza, Uberlândia, Special Issue, 953-960, May, 2005 954 advantages and disadvantages.The main advantage is that this territorial unit relates the effects/causes of the environmental more clearly and easier measuring.So, we intend to establish the recovery proposals presenting some mitigating alternatives or solving conflicts in the area of the micro basin.Due the region peculiarities, concerning to the dynamic economical and social factors, it becomes imperative that the civil responsibility takes it over in response to the environmental passive, whether they come from naturals means or from the action of man
