MAIN ISSUES
Urban water Green areas/ spaces/ biodiversity Air quality Solid waste Noise control Greenhouse gases emission

CHALLENGES/DIFFICULTIES
SO PAULO in the context of the Upper Tiet River Basin Environmental issues is a multisector problem; strongly dependent on land use enforcement/ sanitation/ transportation Environmental issues are strongly dependent on integrated institutional management; many issues are not within PMSP responsibility

PROPOSITIONS
Integrated planning at basin level; Upgrade urban drainage infrastructure to progressively gain 100-year protection; Resettlement of the population established in flood risk areas; Recovery and preservation of permanent river protection areas in the city, with special attention to the implementation of linear parks; Implementation of measures for the increase of infiltration areas; Implementation of structural measures (retention/detention); LANDSCAPE DESIGN Improve resilience, adaptation measures

PROPOSITIONS
To incorporate rivers and water bodies as an important landscape element Negotiate/Demand wastewater collection and treatment ( So Paulo + metropolitan region) Control illicit connections between sewage and drainage system Increase protection (vegetation) along river margins Control non-point sources; structural and non-structural measures

Water conservation

Current situation: why conservation?

So Paulo is facing water scarcity; Currently 5 water production systems are in operation to supply the metropolitan region; 70 m3/s The system will need an expansion in the near future to face population increase and risk reduction The next source is very difficult to find; conflict with neighboring basins

PROPOSITIONS
Negotiate/ Demand control of losses in distribution systems; Changes in construction codes; Incentives for intelligent/ green buildings; Incentives for water saving kitchen/ bathroom fixtures, appliances; Incentives for water reuse/ rain harvesting systems

Protection of water sources

PROPOSITIONS
Enforcement of land use control Urban requalification in illegal settlements Restoration of riparian vegetation

GREEN AREAS/ SPACES

CURRENT SITUATION
. 10 m2/ inhab.

. No parks in 53 of the 96 subdistricts of the city

Increase in new open/green spaces; to guarantee that there are parks and squares in the city of So Paulo within a 15-minute walk, at the maximum, from each residence; The target should be 50 m2/ inhab. of green area Creation of a fund for conserving natural landscape, cultural and historical sites

AIR QUALITY
CURRENT SITUATION
. Particulate

matter, ozone, NOx, volatile organic components in frequent standard violations . Traffic is the predominant cause . Diesel of poor quality . Legislation must be updated

Increase the use of renewable fuels; Better diesel quality; Update legislation for vehicles and air quality standards; Strongly dependent on improvements in traffic and mobility; Green buildings to reduce heat spots

SOLID WASTE
CURRENT SITUATION
. 17,000 tons/day . The entire area of the city is serviced with collection, but collection is difficult in illegal settlements . Low recycling levels

. Destination is sanitary landfills .

Reuse and recycling of waste in its full technological potential; Strict control of sediment production in construction sites and erosion; Promotion of special conditions for the composting of organic waste. Incineration of part of the MSW for power generation and the disposal of ash into controlled landfills.
