The environmental issue in Belo Horizonte's Master Plan: An analysis of the environment in Belo Horizonte Municipal Law No. 7165/96 - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The environmental issue is becoming increasingly important in the contemporary world, due to the environmental impacts of urban-industrial society. In this context, urban planning, with the Masterplan as an essential instrument, is important for land-use planning and improving the population's quality of life through the sustainable development of the urban environment. However, in order to understand the environmental issue within a city, it is necessary to go much further than what is described in the Masterplan. It is necessary to understand the origin of the municipality and how urban space was appropriated and planned. In addition, it is also necessary to analyse the relationship that people have with the urban environment, with the natural environment within it and its importance for society. These are the topics that this book aims to address, as well as critically analysing how the environment is addressed within a city's Master Plan, specifically here, the city of Belo Horizonte in Minas Gerais.
