Análise do comportamento de CO2 na agricultura nos estados nordestinos

Abstract

The ecosystem uses a process in which a being cannot develop without depending on the other, so all elements, whether negative or not, are extremely important for its functioning and maintenance. However, even being a necessary gas, carbon dioxide in high concentrations can cause damage and imbalances to the environment. According to data from IEMA (Brazilian Institute for the Environment), in Brazil “land use change” and “agriculture” are the biggest contributors, representing 72% of Brazilian CO2 emissions in 2019. The northeast, on the other hand, has mostly agriculture, characterized as family and subsistence, having less impact on CO2 emissions when compared to the rest of the country. The general objective of this work was to analyze the behavior of CO2 emissions in the Brazilian Northeast, specifically the behavior of each state. The data used were from the SEEG platform in the survey from 1990 to 2020 on CO2 emissions in the agriculture sector. The Northeastern average represents 3.47% of the Brazilian total. The states that stand out with the highest emissions are Bahia, Maranhão and Ceará, with CO2 emissions (t) of 397.5, 192.5 and 155.4 respectively. Note the disparity between the 1st and 2nd places with the highest emissions, 50.8% higher in Bahia compared to the state of Maranhão. The value of the northeast represents only 28.81% of the total value of the country
