Abstract

This paper aims at discussing about public policies' inconsistencies related to preservation and conservation of nature in the Campos Gerais of Paraná. The region in question has peculiar characteristics due to presence the area with fields of vegetation (Grasslands Suffering Pine) with the occurrence of Brazilian savannah and the forests of Araucaria (Mixed Ombrophilus Forest), inserted in a landscape historically marked by agricultural activities. Meanwhile, policies of conservation and environmental preservation have valorized areas with remaining forests and from scenic natural heritage, in despite of ecosystems and sustainability and development of people who live in the region.
