O DESMATAMENTO E OS DANOS CAUSADOS À NATUREZA SOB O PONTO DE VISTA DA MÍDIA DIGITAL BRASILEIRA

Abstract

The environment is fundamental for our survival, from which the raw material for the manufacture of all the products, utensils and food we eat is taken from it. Therefore, we need to apply attitudes that seek to raise awareness, teach and modify human beings' actions in order to improve care and zeal for them. Deforestation actions in the forests of Brazil, especially the Amazon Forest, continue to grow strongly and gradually year after year. Such actions harm the ecosystem and can lead to serious problems in the environment, food chains, and cause environmental imbalances. This paper seeks to understand how digital media show actions that harm the environment, analyzing whether these newspapers, websites and blogs really highlight these notifications. Comparative methods will be used in ten sites in Brazil, observing the numbers and quantities of publications posted, directly related to the subject, from January to June 2021. In this way, it will be possible to see what is being done, what can be improved, and which must be changed urgently.
