Análise de implantação de coberturas verdes na região central da cidade de Pato Branco - PR

Abstract

This thesis investigates the feasibility and benefits of implementing green roofs in the central region of Pato Branco, Paraná, as a sustainable solution to mitigate the negative environmental effects, such as heat islands, resulting from urbanization in the municipality of Pato Branco, Paraná. The theoretical study is based on academic research and public policies adopted in other Brazilian cities, such as Recife, Pernambuco. The analysis considers technical, environmental, and economic aspects, suggesting the adoption of green roofs through tax incentives and educational campaigns to raise awareness among the population and local authorities. The results indicate that the adoption of green roofs can not only bring significant environmental and economic benefits to the city but also contribute to a more sustainable and resilient urban environment.
