Abstract:

A procura por aparelhos eletroeletrônicos tem aumentado consideravelmente a demanda e, consequentemente, a sua produção.  As vantagens proporcionadas são enormes, porém nem todos percebem as consequências desta alta produção. O desenvolvimento tecnológico cria um paradoxo, uma vez que, ao mesmo tempo em que propicia uma melhor forma de viver e de produzir, gera ameaças para a sociedade. Mediante ao cenário exposto, apresenta-se como questão de pesquisa: Como a Legislação Educacional e a Literat

Abstract:

The issue of waste batteries as a specific type of waste poses a major challenge to the environment, mainly due to improper disposal practices among the local population. The aim of this study is to explore the local population's awareness of the environmental impact of waste batteries, which are often discarded with regular waste instead of being disposed of properly. Although 67 % of respondents express concern about the ecological consequences, 69.63 % of respondents still dispose of used batteries improperly and only 32 % feel sufficiently informed about the environmental risks.
