Abstract
We live in an interconnected world, like a butterfly effect what happens in certain areas of the world reflects in others. These (inter)connections go beyond a globalization for capitalist ends, the world goes beyond the correlations between society. The present work aims to demonstrate an analysis derived from studies on the effects of climatic events and anomalies in the Equatorial Pacific Ocean on ENSO, which causes socio-environmental disasters in La Niña years, in the State of Alagoas, Northeast Brazil – NEB; through data obtained through the Center for Weather Forecasting and Climatic Studies - CPTEC, from the National Institute for Space Research - INEP, as well as through Weather Spark reports and data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics - IBGE, among others. Research warns that in years of La Niña and/or El Niño, the Northeast region of Brazil is susceptible to the occurrence of environmental disasters, whether caused by strong rainfall levels that cause flooding, inundation, and landslides of masses called hydrometeoric. Drought and/or drought are defined as climatic effects. In Alagoas, natural disasters occur either due to hydrometeoric or climatic effects. The same, leave hundreds of people homeless, homeless, sick and even in deaths always from the occurrence of natural disasters. With this, two years were analyzed, 2000 and 2010, for the disasters arising from extreme hydrometeoric effects in the state of Alagoas. According to data analyzed from specialized meteorological agencies, we identified the year 2000 and 2010 as the La Niña period, that is, responsible for part of the events in socio-environmental disasters arising from the high rainfall that occurred, causing overflows in the main rivers in Alagoas.
