Os aq\u00fc\u00edferos subterr\u00e2neos foram utilizados de forma n\u00e3o-sustent\u00e1vel pela capta\u00e7\u00e3o da \u00e1gua para consumo humano e irriga\u00e7\u00e3o, interferindo nos processos naturais de recarga.

Tamb\u00e9m no Estado de Pernambuco h\u00e1 zonas sujeitas a processos de desertifica\u00e7\u00e3o, com a vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o sendo permanentemente explorada para a pecu\u00e1ria extensiva e para a agricultura.

Around 70% of the Caatinga is estimated to have been altered by man, and only 0.28% of its area is protected by conservation units and parks. These numbers confer to the Caatinga the status of the least preserved ecosystem, and one of the most degraded.<br \/>\nIn order to establish \u00c1reas Priorit\u00e1rias para a Conserva\u00e7\u00e3o da Caatinga (Priority Areas for the Conservation of the Caatinga) four subregions were identified based on the threat level caused by natural resource use and socioeconomic factors: a) the banks of the S\u00e3o Francisco river; b) areas with underground aquifers; c) mining zones; and d) desertifying areas.<br \/>\nThe banks of the S\u00e3o Francisco river have been intensely exploited through deforestation and use of the wood to feed steamboat boilers, resulting in landslides and aggradation. The underground aquifers have been non-sustainably used to extract water for human consumption and irrigation, disrupting natural recharge processes. Mining is one of the human activities with the greatest impact over the environment. Within this biome, both coal and gypsum are exploited in the state of Pernambuco. The state of Pernambuco also has desertifying areas, where the vegetation is permanently exploited for extensive grazing and agriculture. The presence of cattle is negative for the environment because the cattle causes soil compaction through trampling.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(from here) Amea\u00e7as &#8211; caatinga A explora\u00e7\u00e3o feita de forma extrativista pela popula\u00e7\u00e3o local, desde a ocupa\u00e7\u00e3o do semi-\u00e1rido, tem levado a uma r\u00e1pida degrada\u00e7\u00e3o ambiental.
