-The main objective of this work was to apply the indicators of Ecological Footprint to measure the current state of the art company studied the Industrial Pole of Manaus. For this, there was a comprehensive review of existing methodologies for adaptation on a smaller scale .Then the consumption variables necessary for the calculation of the Ecological Footprint in Corporate Environment were identified .It was used at first exploratory research and approach the second moment of theoretical and descriptive research by collecting primary data within an enterprise PIM . The literature for composition of a theoretical and documentary research for access to secondary data required for calculation of the indicators were also used .Data collection was conducted through a questionnaire , with explanatory text at the beginning , which was answered by those responsible for the requested data. The quantitative method is related to the use of quantification of variables ,use of formulas for the calculation of indicators and statistical techniques to ensure accurate results . As a result of the research, it was found that the Ecological Footprint Company (-894.62 gha) is within the standards set nationally (2.9 gha) and that may encourage more consumption of fish instead of beef . It is relevant attention to the sustainability of our green areas, because of the 44 hectares of the Urban Zone of Manaus, 28 000 have been deforested. Cite as: MVA Barros, AC Kieling.

Climate change already affects everyone. Anthropogenic actions produce planetary impacts and accelerate global warming. Municipalities around the world have been suffering from heat waves, prolonged droughts, torrential rains, tornadoes, cyclones, hurricanes, among others, which are increasingly recurrent. The objective of this essay is to show that cities have a strategic role, both in facing these atmospheric changes that we are experiencing, as well as in the decision-making power for coping actions. For this, we use the concept of geographic scale as a methodology, as a conceptual tool to articulate the different conflicting and complex levels of the current climate crisis. Identifying urban singularities, through a closer approximation of people's spatial reality, using this concept, is necessary to mitigate the social consequences of the process. The results elucidated that cities have unique characteristics to generate adaptations to these current climate changes, through a closer and more effective look at the local scale.
