Abstract

ABSTRACT

Over time the social structure has undergone a series of transformations in its evolutionary process. The human being has moved to urban centers and is distanced from the elements of nature, despite the evils that this change has caused, such as increased pollution and health problems. Before this framework, in the year 2020, still in a pre-pandemic moment, began to develop at the Institute of Sciences of the Society of Macaé an extension project that aims to promote respect for the natural environment and expansion of green areas on the university campus, the ICM Garden project: approximations between the right to healthy quality of life and the landscape of urban space of the UFF that is based on art. 225 of the Federal Constitution of 1988 and aims to consolidate the social right to an ecologically balanced environment as essential for a healthy quality of life. Thus, the implementation team of this project contributes to the optimization of the well-being of the academic community and society as a whole, which benefits from the results achieved by planting trees and maintaining the ICM gardens that, scientifically, they collaborate for the establishment of thermal comfort of the environment. Thus, over three years, several species of fruit and ornamental trees were planted at ICM, an activity developed with the support of students, servers and outsourced employees who work at UFF in Macaé.
