CXXXIII. IMPACTO AMBIENTAL DEL CAMINO VEREDAL DE TRAMO DE PESCADERO HACIA CEPITA SANTANDER

Abstract

Human beings live in transformative environments with the capacity for environmental
protection, preserving, recovering, improving and conserving human quality to satisfy the
needs of there, use natural resources, protect health, reduce waste and protect the landscape
of the Chicamocha Canyon. – Santander Salvador affirms that the Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA) introduces the first forms of control of the interactions of human
interventions with the environment (either directly or indirectly), through instruments and
procedures aimed at anticipating and evaluating the consequences of these (2005, page 56).
All this with the intention of reducing and mitigating impacts. A large part of human
activities, but especially those whose purpose is the production or provision of goods and
services, supply of raw materials and infrastructure development, interact in some way with
the environment where they are located, both in their construction and in your operation. For
example, they consume natural resources, remove vegetation, use productive soils, modify
the landscape, displace people, produce waste or emissions, among others. That is, to
generate changes in environmenta conditions that can be highly variable in terms of their
significance, magnitude, duration, extension, among others. (Palacios et al., 2020)
