Abstract
TOCA TORRES, Claudia Eugenia and CARRILLO RODRIGUEZ, Jesús. Environmental model for a capital city. Civilizar [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.24, pp.165-180. ISSN 1657-8953.
From a review of the various options for modeling a sustainable development in its environmental dimension, this research proposes a model of environmental impact for Bogota, using the Vensim PLE software to model the pollution, the pollution load and soil contamination. The model includes a limited number of endogenous variables, as well as a greater number of exogenous variables. This modeling allows us to anticipate the environmental situation in the capital, in order to support public policies for addressing issues such as economic sanctions and moral regulations on emissions, discharges and waste, environmental measures and environmentally friendly practices.
Keywords : Modeling; pollution; pollution load; soil contamination.
