“…According to Borile and Calgaro (2016), the ideal is that the decision-making process is agreed between the interested parties-entrepreneurs, public authorities, and affected civil society-so that the environment is democratically used, sharing responsibilities. In the same line of argument, Maldaner et al (2019) concluded that the constructions and deconstructions of future scenarios must have the active participation of all actors involved, both public and societal.…”

The involvement of society in environmental management, when allowed, encourages the formulation, implementation, and monitoring of environmental policies. The public hearings that make up the environmental licensing process and that represent a space for direct popular participation have proven to be inefficient. This work aims to capture the impressions of public opinion regarding popular participation in decision-making, both about public practices of environmental management and about environmental licensing. The data were collected in the second half of 2020 through a questionnaire prepared through Google Forms and disseminated on social networks according to a virtual sampling technique called “snowball.” The sample was composed of 59 individuals, mostly from Rio Grande do Sul (88%). The respondents feel excluded from the licensing process and the actions to protect the environment where they live, showing interest in being more participatory, both by adding information about the region where they live and by assisting in enforcement within their neighborhoods. Most of the public consulted considers that the dissemination of information about public actions and the need to acquire knowledge about the functionalities of environmental licensing are essential to ensure a more effective participation of the population in the formulation of environmental protection policies. It is concluded that direct participative democracy is still deficient due to the low adhesion of the population, whose engagement depends on factors related to environmental education, the availability of information, and the simplification of forms of democratic participation that are closer to the citizen.

“…Aiming at greater economic development between the 1970s and 1980s, the electricity sector took up space in environmental discussions, when the promotion of large hydroelectric projects (Oliveira, 2018) promised to solve the problems of energy demand (Pimentel, 2012). These, despite their importance for the country's economy, brought several environmental, social and political impacts (Suassuna, 2007;Maldaner et al, 2019). Since then, the construction of hydroelectric plants (Pimentel, 2012) is the basis of the country's demand for electricity.…”

The flooding of the Sete Quedas fall for the formation of the Itaipu hydroelectric power plant, on the Paraná River, had impacts on fishing. The objective of this study was to analyze the environmental perception of fishermen in the region of Ilha Grande National Park, the environmental changes that occurred after the formation of the Itaipu reservoir and their relationship with fishing in the region. Data collection was carried out through interviews, with a semi-structured script approved by the Ethics Committee of Western Paraná State University. This script consisted of 26 questions aimed at identifying the socioeconomic characteristics of the activity and the changes that occurred from 1980 to 2020. Qualitative variables were analyzed. The results showed that fishermen have knowledge and perception of the environmental changes that have occurred in the last 40 years, and of the consequences of these changes in the fishing and housing spaces where they are inserted. Moreover, they demonstrated knowledge about changes in the river bed, in the course and on the banks of the Paraná River, about silting up and the decrease and/or extinction of fish species, in line with what has been found in the scientific literature. Thus, for these artisanal fishermen, the flooding caused social, cultural and economic losses. It is necessary for public authorities to act, supported by scientific information, guiding environmental education actions and measures to mitigate the environmental impacts generated and to support the fishermen.
