ABSTRACT:
This chapter analyzes the impacts of fires in the Legal Amazon, with an emphasis on the relationship between air pollution and public health, from the perspective of environmental justice. The research, which is qualitative and descriptive in nature, is based on a review of the literature and documentation, supported by remote sensing data, mathematical modeling, and official sources such as INPE and IBGE. It highlights the anthropogenic causes of fires, especially deforestation and agricultural expansion, as well as the effects of climate change on the intensification of fires.
