Abstract

This paper presents an application proposed a method of indicators to evaluate the municipal program of selective collection in the municipality of San Gabriel, which started in 2015. This program is based on the law of the National Solid Waste Policy which now obligation for the public to perform the management of waste collection. It has the prospect of identifying the levels of economic, environmental and health based on the concepts of integrated and shared management, established in Brazil as a public policy model of solid waste. Analyzes the municipal selective collection program, which is developed in partnership with a collectors association. It is considered that the selective collection program evaluation studies are lacking and there is a lack of validated indicators for this assessment. For data collection was used a literature review, document concerning the issue and interviews with qualified agents who work in this sector. This research put on the agenda the importance of using sustainability indicators for selective collection programs and collectors' organization assisting the program monitoring, proposing goals and management alternatives at the prospect of making more sustainable waste collection activity.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication

The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles. 

Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.

In particular, 

Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.

Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.

Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
