The present paper approaches the relationship between the State and the environment, aiming to evaluate the inquiries opened by the Public Ministry of the State of São Paulo (MPSP) and by the Federal Public Ministry (MPF) of Jales, of the 24th and 37th Federal Judiciary Subsection, the coercion and the sanction of environmental crimes of acts and/or omissions of municipal public agents (mayors) in the face of the administrative improbity law, arising from environmental damage. The study was carried out by collecting data from the MPSP and MPF from 48 municipalities in the northwest region of São Paulo, in procedures opened from January 2008 to August 2021 whose defendants were mayors and municipalities. After data collection, there was a tabulation and correlation with the bibliography, the legislation and the found jurisprudence. It has been identified that 120 proceedings were initiated, and the majority of these investigations lead to public civil actions by the MPSP, with most of them being civil inquiries, while the remaining ones were police inquiries. Additionally, the MPF in Jales opened a total of 606 proceedings, and the majority of them evolved into public civil actions. It is concluded that the MPSP of the districts and MPF of Jales have been fulfilling the constitutional duty in environmental protection; however, it was identified that the mayors end up not suffering sanctions from the Administrative Impropriety Law for environmental crimes. It was observed that the main objective of the MPSP and the MPF is the restoration of the damage and not the coercion of the agent who carries out or omits actions that lead to environmental damage.

The terrestrial systems have been suffering heavily from natural and anthropic environmental impacts in the course of civilizations and, in this sense, understanding the effects of different agents on the soil becomes increasingly important in view of the need to draw strategies for the mitigation of possible environmental impacts. In this way, the present study carried out a bibliographical review of the most diverse agents and processes capable of causing alterations to the soil's physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics, surveying the effects of such agents on different ecosystems. Thus, through the study it was found that changes in rainfall, chemical, nutritional and soil available volume have contributed to the increased formation of semi-arid regions around the planet.

The Supreme Court Judgment of October 27, 2021 resolves an appeal filed by the Junta de Castilla y León against a previous sentence. The court addresses two main issues related to the inclusion of a species in the list of huntable species and popular action in cases of environmental damage. It concludes that it is not necessary to provide specific justification for including a species in the list of huntable species and that those authorized to file a popular action cannot request economic compensation for environmental damages. The judgment sides with the Junta de Castilla y León and dismisses the association's appeal. [Extracted from the article]

Recent Chilean jurisprudence has classified environmental liability in terms of the restoration of damage, ruling out monetary compensation. Although this interpretation has the purpose of favoring environmental protection, granting the Environmental Courts powers in different areas, various substantial and procedural limitations make such protection difficult to achieve. These limitations can be overcome based on an alternative reading, which distinguishes a multiplicity of responsibilities in environmental matters and seeks unity in its repair, imposed by whatever applicable law.

The mass interest in environmental issues emerged at the end of the 1960s. It was then that the problems of environmental degradation began to be clearly perceived, which at first focused mainly on pollution. At that time, the concept of environment had two very clear meanings, depending on whether it was applied in industrialized or developing countries. In the first case, environmental issues focused almost exclusively on aspects of pollution, in which case it was correct to consider that environmental problems were of a technological nature, whereas in developing countries the concept was much broader and of a socioeconomic and economic nature. More political than technological, since priority environmental problems were considered, precisely those derived from underdevelopment: health problems, conditions of human settlements, lack of housing and schools, nutritional deficiencies, destruction of forests and loss of soil, destruction or poor exploitation of natural or other resources.

The objective was to analyze the environmental and economic impact on the micro basin of the Libertad River in Ecuador. The contributions of Barrantes and Di Mare were used; (2014), Hernández, Vilardell, León, Caballero and Pérez, (2014), Tomio and Ullrich (2015). The research was analytical, with a field design. As a result, it was obtained that the impact caused by anthropogenic activities in a sector of the micro-basin was remarkable in the panoramic view, due to the fact that the aesthetics of the site varies, which is why its cost is high, followed by the mosaic of habitat. A soil conversion was generated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
