Item Os resíduos sólidos na sustentação da família de um usuário de crack: uma questão social e ambiental(Universidade do Estado do Amazonas, 2019-01-10) Ribas, Ana Leila Gazel; Aguiar, Denison Melo de; Souto, Átila de OliveiraThe present study addresses the environmental and social impact caused by solid waste capitation from crack users. The use of psychoactive substances has been following humanity for millennia. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries its use was no longer ritualistic as it took other paths. Drug use has increased exponentially. Heavy drug addiction has harmful consequences for users. Social exclusion and family neglect are constant in the lives of crack addicts, causing many to die on the streets. In recycling materials, they find a way to support themselves, their family and their addiction. It is important to understand the importance of recycling to the environment. However, the damages of this type of trade come from the way it is done. Locations full of garbage, with a high level of unhealthiness make the urban centers, where drug consumption and sales are located, deteriorate rapidly and continuously. Social loss can also be noticed. People stop going to these places, causing commerce to go bankrupt. The general objective of the research is to show that the use of crack damages the environment and society. The methodology used was a qualitative-descriptive bibliographical approach extracted from books, articles and printed and electronic magazines focused on the subject in question. It is concluded that public anti-drug policies are ineffective and cannot end crack trafficking and consumption in urban centers. KEYWORDS: solid waste, crack, drugs, environment.
