A Educação ambiental focando a conservação da ictiofauna do Rio Sorocaba

Abstract

Detailed examination of the ichthyofauna in the Sorocaba River reveals its complex biodiversity and persistent threats. Fish diversity stands out as crucial, but the presence of invasive species, inadequate fishing and pollution by toxic substances represent serious threats. The lack of effective legislation and specific conservation initiatives are notable challenges. While there are educational efforts, the prevailing conservation approach requires a more critical perspective. The conclusion emphasizes the need for a multidimensional approach, involving effective policy implementation, innovative environmental education strategies and the promotion of sustainable practices to preserve not only the biodiversity, but also the long-term health of the Sorocaba River ecosystem.
