Resumen
La problemática de la generación de los residuos sólidos, su manejo, el almacenamiento temporal, recolección, transporte, tratamiento o coprocesamiento y disposición final, es motivo de gran preocupación en el mundo. El planeta cada día genera más basura, los altos índices de contaminación a los recursos naturales por la inadecuada disposición final de los residuos sólidos, alcanza niveles elevados (Solíz, 2011).
De los recursos naturales, los cuerpos de agua y los ecosistemas que en ellos habitan, son los más afectados por los residuos sólidos que les llega, producto de la acción antropogénica (Solíz, 2011).
Ante los eventos descritos y en el afán de contribuir al cambio, desde los núcleos de la sociedad, de las familias y del individuo; el presente estudio de caso analiza la situación de un contexto urbano “La Urbanización El Caracol” y la afectación al ambiental que se deriva del manejo inadecuado de los residuos sólidos que en la urbanización se generan; y de cómo desde la visión de la semiótica ambiental, es imprescindible el mirar casa adentro; el tomar conciencia de la percepción de lo que se espera en nuestro entorno y lo que propios y extraños puedan conceptualizar de ese entorno. En la actualidad la urbanización proyecta una imagen de desorden y desaseo, producto del manejo inadecuado de los residuos sólidos (basura); olores desagradables, la proliferación de las ratas, cucarachas entre otros, tanto como los residuos de excrementos de perros y gatos, en las calles, aceras, y áreas verdes; presentan un entorno insalubre.El estudio plantea la elaboración de una “Guía Socio-Ambiental para el manejo de los residuos sólidos en la Urbanización El Caracol”, para tal propósito, se realizó un grupo focal con el objetivo de obtener criterios cualitativos sobre la situación del problema y conjuntamente con la investigación de campo y los principios de la semiótica ambiental, se estructuró la guía socio-ambiental mencionada.
The problem of solid waste generation, handling, temporary storage, collection, transportation, treatment and disposal or co-processing is a major concern in the world. The planet every day generates more garbage, the high levels of pollution to natural resources by improper disposal of solid waste, reaches high levels (Soliz, 2011). Of natural resources, water bodies and ecosystems that inhabit them, they are the most affected by solid waste that comes as a result of anthropogenic action (Soliz, 2011). Given the events described and the desire to contribute to change, from the nuclei of society, families and individuals; this case study examines the status of an urban context "Urbanization El Caracol" and environmental involvement which stems from improper handling of solid waste generated in the urbanization; and how from the perspective of environmental semiotics, it is essential to look at home in; the awareness of the perception of what is expected in our environment and what friends and strangers can conceptualize that environment. Today urbanization projects an image of disorder and uncleanliness, product of inadequate management of solid waste (garbage); unpleasant odors, the proliferation of rats, cockroaches and others, as well as waste droppings of dogs and cats on the streets, sidewalks and green areas; They have an unhealthy environment. The study presents the development of a "Socio-Environmental Guidelines for the management of solid waste in the urbanization El Caracol", for this purpose, a focus group was conducted with the aim of obtaining qualitative criteria on the problem situation and together with field research and the principles of environmental semiotics, social and environmental mentioned guide was structured.
