Resumo: | Abstrat: Diverse are the damages generated to the environment by urban growth. Some are local problems and others affect the planet as a whole, however the impact of the environment degradation is different between poor and rich, almost always they affect the poor people in the most perverse way, inflicting serious damages to the poor since their lives depend on the use of natural resources and their life conditions offer them little protection against air, water and ground pollution. From another point of view, poverty can induce the poor people to depredate even more the natural resources and to degrade the environment. Generating a vicious circle, reducing the income, the entitlements, livelihoods, and the survival of the poor people. This article aimed to make a statistics analysis using as proxy for poverty, not the per capita income, but an ampler index and with some dimensions, as the human development index, HDI. Moreover, to verify the action of the people on the environment, the percentage of domiciles without access to sanitation was used as proxy for the ambient degradation and the percentage of domiciles with access to the service of garbage collection as well, to find out one of the links between poverty and environment in urban Brazil. |

Alguns são problemas locais e outros acabam por afetar tanto o local quanto o planeta como um todo. Contudo, o impacto da degradação ambiental é desigual entre pobres e ricos, quase sempre afetando as pessoas mais pobres da maneira mais perversa, podendo infligir sérios danos aos pobres, já que suas vidas dependem do uso de recursos naturais e suas condições de vida oferecem pouca proteção contra poluição do ar, água e solo. De outro ponto de vista, a pobreza pode induzir os pobres a depredar ainda mais os recursos naturais e degradar o ambiente. Gerando um círculo vicioso, reduzindo a renda, os entitulamentos, os livelihoods, e a sobrevivência dos pobres. Este artigo buscou fazer uma análise estatística utilizando como proxy para pobreza não a renda per capita, mas um indicador mais amplo e com várias dimensões, como o índice de desenvolvimento humano, o IDH. Além disso, para verificar a ação dos indivíduos sobre o ambiente utilizou-se como proxy para a degradação ambiental a porcentagem de domicílios sem acesso a saneamento e a porcentagem de domicílios com acesso ao serviço de coleta de lixo, para encontrar um dos elos entre pobreza e meio-ambiente no Brasil urbano.
