[pt] Este trabalho apresenta a pesquisa relativa ao tema resíduos sólidos urbanos,
mais especificamente a coleta seletiva, no município de Armação dos Búzios (RJ), um
dos mais conhecidos e visitados balneários turísticos do Brasil, onde o segmento
turístico é o principal pilar econômico. Para essa pesquisa, levantou-se o histórico de
implantação do hoje abandonado aterro sanitário do município. Foi feito o
acompanhamento in loco, em duas pousadas, de toda a operação de coleta, incluindo
pesagem dos resíduos, carregamento destes no caminhão e itinerário diário
percorrido.Uma das principais conclusões é a de que todo esse processo de implantação
do sistema de gestão da sustentabilidade nas pousadas, com foco na coleta seletiva de
seus resíduos, é um processo em que vários setores da sociedade se beneficiam.
Ganham os colaboradores internos quando repartem entre si o dinheiro da venda desses
resíduos; ganha o empresário, pois pode divulgar com convicção sua postura ambiental
e ganha o município, que aumenta o dinheiro circulante na economia local e diminui o
volume coletado por seus caminhões. / [en] One of the key issues regarding social policies in Brazil is the one related to
universal access to basic sanitation with quality, equity and continuity. The
universalization of basic sanitation has been assumed as a commitment of the whole
Brazilian society and it is an institutional reform effort involving governments, service
providers, industry, financial agents and society through their organizations and
channels of participation. By basic sanitation, it is meant the set of services,
infrastructure and operational facilities regarding drinking water supply, sewage, solid
waste management and urban sanitation, management of urban stormwater and
drainage. This issue gains more prominence each day, due to its social impact and the
growing concern about quality of life, health, and the environment.
The theme and the steps involved in solid waste management are included and
defined in Law nº 11.455/07, which established the national guidelines for the basic
sanitation federal policy. This law also brought an essential instrument for the
implementation of the National Sanitation Plan policy [Plano Nacional de Saneamento
Básico], with the preparation of the respective Municipal and/or Regional Plans for
Basic Sanitation. It also considers solid waste management as a set of activities,
infrastructure and operating facilities for collection, transportation, transfer, treatment
and final disposal of household refuse and garbage originated from the sweeping and
cleaning of public areas and public roads. The irresponsible treatment and disposal of
such waste pave the way for the deteriorating quality of life and health of the
population. Among the various alternatives for solid waste treatments, recycling is the
most friendly and more attractive to the public and media in general, especially for its
strong environmental and educational appeals.
