Uma análise crítica das diretrizes ambientais do PAC- 2 na área de energia

Abstract

The aim of this article is to present an analysis of the Programme of Acceleration of Growth-2 (Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento-2) – PAC-2, of the federal government, in particular identifying the environmental policies of the investments anticipated for the energy area (oil and gas). From reading the data available on the PAC- 2 website, we emphasize that there is a lack of long-term planning in the use of nonrenewable resources by the federal government. This is made evident by the immediatist view of the public agenda regarding the environmental issue. It is concluded that the Programme shows the same developmentalist bias as PAC-1. It brings little innovation with regard to putting into effect the constitutional model of national development which is based on economic growth, environmental sustainability, social justice and intergeneration responsibility.
