Abstract
The environmental issue is dealt with in the perspective of climate change, global warming and other factors that have interfered in the conditions of Gaia, also in the perspective of the development of Capitalism with the intensive use of natural resources, generating imbalance and consequences for the planet Earth in its set. However, the main emphasis of the paper is on the effects of these environmental changes especially in the field of health. Based on a diverse but specific literature and case studies, the objective is to demonstrate how environmental changes resulting from human migration, marked urbanization, deforestation, and socio-environmental disasters have resulted in different changes in nature and even in the epidemiology of diseases transmitted by vector insects.
