Abstract
The article discusses selected problems related to environmental protection in the context of climate change in the Ceará region of North-Eastern Brazil. The authors analyse the lack of water and negative impact of climate change on fish processing in the region. Also, the opportunity to use fish waste to increase profitability of the local fish processing SMEs thanks to implementation of climate-friendly technologies such as the production of fertilisers and energy for their own needs is discussed.
Highlights
There is a close relationship between development of civilization based on new technologies, increasingly complex systems of society organization and the progressive exploitation of the natural environment, and as a consequence, climate change

Method of research The main research method was content analysis and a bibliographic search. This made it possible to conduct a sensible analysis of the phenomenon of climate change caused by economic development, which is manifest in the growing amount of waste, including organic waste as well as the increasing demand for electric energy under conditions of continually decreasing yearly rainfalls and ongoing lowering of the groundwater level
Summary
There is a close relationship between development of civilization based on new technologies, increasingly complex systems of society organization and the progressive exploitation of the natural environment, and as a consequence, climate change. SELECTED PROBLEMS OF WATER, ELECTRICITY AND WASTE MANAGEMENT IN BRAZIL IN THE CONTEXT OF ITS IMPACT ON CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION
