摘要
The quality of life is intrinsically linked to water availability; however, pollution on this resource directly affects people. Lake Guaiba has a historical, economic and cultural importance to Porto Alegre (RS, Brazil) and its metropolitan region. This report discusses the historical and cultural context of Lake Guaiba's pollution. With a large watershed, Lake Guaiba suffers many environmental impacts and, at the same time, has multiple uses for its waters. Despite the great importance of Lake Guaiba to Porto Alegre metropolitan region, there is a historical disregard with its quality. The lake is polluted and there is a public perception of this reality with direct limitation of its water's use.
