Socioeconomic indicators associated with the desertification process in “Microrregião do Sertão” of Pernambuco state, Brazil | Indicadores socioeconômicos associados ao processo de desertificação em "Microrregião do Sertão" do estado de Pernambuco, Brasil
In all of humankind's history, there has never been as much concern about environmental issues as it has today. Within this theme, it is worth highlighting some issues such as: the climate change process and desertification. There are several indicators used to evaluate studies on this process. In order to do so, this study intends to compare the socioeconomic indicators in the Microregions of the “Sertão do Moxotó” and “Sertão do Pajeú”, State of Pernambuco, considered to be low susceptibility to desertification and with severe risk as described in the Map of Areas Susceptible to Desertification and Areas Affected by Desertification, Quoted by the Ministry of Environment. The data show that the absolute population manifests a greater control over natural resources, which ends up intervening in other factors, such as social ones. In this way, this research is expected to help in the elaboration of public policies aimed at adapting the population to future climatic scenarios.
