Abstract

This work had as thematic research with residents of São Cristóvão neighborhood in the city of Medianeira - PR are equipping process municipal solid waste. By means of applied research, were carried out 50 questionnaires in the neighborhood, addressing socio-economic issues related to the maintenance of solid waste. We observed that 86% of the people interviewed do the separation of waste at home, but outside the home not everyone is careful to separate the recycled packaging of common waste. Of the respondents, 54% of them use only common bags to package the waste generated and only 56% knew tell the day that happens the collection of solid waste whether recyclable or not, there are also several destinations for the waste which is not collected by the team the municipal urban cleaning, such as electronic and the old furniture. All this lack of information regarding proper care interviewed to residents may be related to the low dissemination and sensitization of residents about the correct ways of wrapping. Research has shown that people know of the problems caused to the environment by poor packaging of solid waste, but does not always know to proceed to avoid these problems. About installing collective dumps, the majority accepted, but on the cost of the same, half of respondents said they accepted depending on the cost, and also that the acceptance depends on the site, even if the city hall make some financial compensation. Whereas the production of solid waste is increasingly growing due to consumption of industrialized products, which generates large amount of disposable, it is necessary that the government and the general public to work together to find appropriate means to address this problem, which does not is onerous, but that is efficient.
