The Ecological Transformation Plan (ETP) aims to promote a change in economic, technological, and cultural paradigms in favor of development through sustainable relationships with nature and its biomes, enabling the generation of wealth and its fair and shared distribution, with improvement in the quality of life for present and future generations.
The current development model—characterized by intensive use of natural resources, significant greenhouse gas emissions, and environmental degradation—has caused serious consequences for the quality of life of populations, such as extreme weather events, scarcity of natural resources, loss of biodiversity, reduced agricultural productivity, among others. Storms, floods, landslides, sea level rise, droughts, and heat waves have become increasingly frequent, affecting the poorest populations much more severely.
