Abstract

The phenomenon of poverty has been present in the dynamics of building society for many centuries. In recent decades, several authors have studied the complexity of poverty under multiple dimensions, relating it to development and individual freedom. The connection between poverty and the environment is understood when observing the evolution of the man-nature relationship over time, since, historically, human beings have positioned themselves as superior to nature. That said, this article seeks to understand how the connection between poverty and the environment takes place through the man-nature relationship, establishing paths to achieve sustainable development. Based on bibliographical and documentary research, it was possible to observe how complex and notorious the established relationships are. Not by chance, the pandemic period (2020-2023) caused by the coronavirus and the consequent social disruption arising from it represented a highly unusual modification of the human-nature interaction. The short- and long-term impacts on the environment and on poverty demonstrate the dimension of anthropic actions and show that contemporary actions based on the exploitation of natural resources generate severe consequences for human life.
