Resumo: | The Brazilian agribusiness excels in international trade, but it has some problems as the concentration of roads in the country's transport matrix, which reduces the competitiveness of the sector. The intermodality is a solution to this problem because it uses the advantages of various modes of transport. Moreover, intermodality becomes logistics more sustainable by reducing the environmental impacts of its activities. Intermodal terminals are the links that allow intermodality, however, studies about the sustainability of the terminals are scarce. This research intended to fill this gap aiming to analyze the socio-environmental sustainability of Brazil's grains logistics intermodal terminals. The specific objectives were: to raise variables about socio-environmental sustainability in logistics terminals and to identify socio-environmental sustainability practices in logistics terminals surveyed. This used an exploratory approach. The sample was composed of 31 Brazilian intermodal terminals. It was found that the terminals are prioritizing social practices, but further studies are needed to confirm or refute the findings. |

La intermodalidad es una solución a este problema, ya que utiliza las ventajas de los distintos modos de transporte. Además, la logística intermodal deja más sostenibles reduciendo los impactos ambientales de sus actividades. Los terminales intermodales son los vínculos que permitan la intermodalidad, sin embargo, los estudios sobre la sostenibilidad de los terminales son escasos. Esta investigación pretende llenar esta brecha con el objetivo de analizar la sostenibilidad social y ambiental de las terminales intermodales de logística de granos en Brasil. Los objetivos específicos fueron: identificar variables sobre la sostenibilidad social y ambiental en los terminales de logística e identificar las prácticas de sostenibilidad ambiental en los terminales de logística encuestados. Este estudio utilizó un enfoque exploratorio. La muestra consistió en 31 terminales intermodales brasileños. Utilizamos las variables en las dimensiones sociales y ambientales de la sostenibilidad. Se encontró que los terminales están dando prioridad a las prácticas sociales, pero se necesitan más estudios para confirmar o refutar los resultados.  O agronegócio brasileiro se destaca no comércio internacional, porém possui alguns problemas como a concentração do modal rodoviário na matriz de transportes brasileira, que reduz a competitividade do setor. A intermodalidade é uma solução para esse problema, pois utiliza vantagens de diversos modais de transporte. Além disso, a intermodalidade deixa a logística mais sustentável reduzindo os impactos socioambientais das suas atividades. Os terminais intermodais são os elos que permitem a intermodalidade, no entanto, estudos sobre a sustentabilidade dos terminais são escassos. Essa pesquisa pretendeu preencher essa lacuna objetivando analisar a sustentabilidade socioambiental dos terminais intermodais da logística de grãos do Brasil. Os objetivos específicos foram: levantar variáveis a respeito da sustentabilidade socioambiental em terminais logísticos e identificar práticas de sustentabilidade socioambiental nos terminais logísticos pesquisados. Essa pesquisa utilizou abordagem exploratória. A amostra foi composta por 31 terminais intermodais brasileiros. Levantaram-se variáveis nas dimensões social e ambiental da sustentabilidade. Apurou-se que os terminais estão priorizando práticas sociais, porém são necessários mais estudos para confirmar ou refutar os resultados encontrados.COMPLEXO EDUCACIONAL FMU2017-05-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa Exploratóriaapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/rms/article/view/1193Revista Metropolitana de Sustentabilidade (ISSN 2318-3233); v. 7 n. 2 (2017): (Mai./Ago. 2017) Publicada em 02/Maio/2017; 20-422318-3233reponame:Revista Metropolitana de Sustentabilidadeinstname:Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)instacron:FMUporhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/rms/article/view/1193/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/rms/article/view/1193/htmlCopyright (c) 2017 Revista Metropolitana de Sustentabilidadeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNery, Diogo PalhetaSproesser, Renato LuizSpers, Renata Giovinazzo2017-09-29T17:39:49Zoai:ojs.fmu.br:article/1193Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/rms/indexPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/rms/oaicelso.sustentabilidade@gmail.com||editor.sustentabilidade@gmail.com|| suporte.revista@gmail.com2318-32332318-3233opendoar:2017-09-29T17:39:49Revista Metropolitana de Sustentabilidade - Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)false |
