Environmental impact in a construction?

The global projection of environmental problems begins when the technological power
already achieved is imposed on the scientific and technical revolution and development
without environmental rationality, which consequently motivates that, with its effects
and threats, the values are no longer endangered of the nature, but the own economic
existence and the technological development without limits, have sharpened the
environmental problems in the last times. [1]

A new stage arises where concerns about the damage caused to the environment are
generalized and break out in various spheres of society.
The work is carried out in the environmental impact in construction
Environmental Impact is considered: It is the impact on the environment that generates
significant changes or contrasts of its components that can lead to loss of balance and
even degradation.
The understanding of environmental issues has been expanding, becoming increasingly
rich and incorporating a greater number of social and political strata in its actions,
leading to environmental impacts that are divided according to their nature, positive or
negative, total or partial, and temporary or permanent.

At present, humanity faces a true environmental impact, classifying them in:

DIRECT: That are an immediate consequence of the action or actions that produce it
Example: The action of deforestation that has a direct impact on biological diversity.
INDIRECT: That they are a consequence of indirect effects Example: The deforestation
carried out implies affectations to established crops to the damage that requires some
species that lost the pollination of its flowers and its habitat by that action.

In addition to the energy used to operate
the drilling and transport equipment, the
flora, fauna, soil and water flows,
underground and superficial, are
affected.
It is the one with the greatest impact on
the environment and can cause pollution
to the landscape, soil, terrestrial and
marine water.

The cleaning and restoration of the

natural landscape is not proceeded by
planting vegetation or other procedures
ABANDONMENT OF THE SITE OF THE of restoration and rehabilitation of the
WORK land, leaving remains of deteriorated
constructions or debris products of the
demolition. This has special significance
in fragile ecosystems, such as coastal
areas and cays. [2]
