Análise da Destinação dos Resíduos Sólidos Produzidos Numa Escola Pública da Cidade de Manaus

Abstract

Changes in teaching and learning activities in public schools, combined with consumerism generated by capitalism, have turned school units into spaces conducive to solid waste generation, causing environmental problems. This research aimed to promote the proper environmental disposal of waste generated in a public school in Manaus, encouraging reduction, reuse, and recycling. The adopted methodology was a descriptive and exploratory action research with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The results indicate the need for proper waste management to minimize environmental impacts.
