Abstract

Scientific advances, growing civil construction, the growth of cities and the numerous innovations today go hand in hand with impacts on the environment. An environmental impact is considered to be any change in the physical, chemical and biological properties of the environment, caused by any form of matter or energy resulting from human activities that, directly or indirectly, affects the environment. This work aimed to characterize and quantify environmental licensing projects in the city of Cruz das Almas - Ba.
