Abstract
O objetivo deste artigo é avaliar possíveis efeitos das mudanças tecnológicas implementadas pelas empresas brasileiras na mitigação de impactos negativos ao meio ambiente. Para isso foi analisada uma amostra das empresas que inovaram e os seus registros quanto ao consumo de matéria prima, energia elétrica e de água, utilizado-as como proxy de danos ambientais. A avaliação dos dados da Pesquisa de Inovação Tecnológica (PINTEC 2005) sugere que as inovações relativas ao meio ambiente vem aumentando no país. Os resultados, obtidos por meio de Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários (MQO) e por um modelo de Poisson, indicam que as inovações utilizadas, entre 2003-2005, reduziram o consumo de matéria-prima, energia elétrica e água. A conclusão geral é que parece ter aumentado a preocupação, no Brasil, na implementação de inovações que
reduzam as pressões das atividades produtivas sobre o meio ambiente.
The objective of this paper is evaluate the possible effects of technological changes implemented by brazilian companies in mitigation of negative impacts on the environment. For that, was analyzed a sample of companies that innovated and their consumption of raw materials, electricity and water, used them as a proxy for environmental damage. The evaluation of the database shows that environmental innovation is increasing in Brazil. The results, obtained by Least Squares (LS) and by Poisson show that implemented innovation reduced the consumption of raw materials, electricity and water. Concludes that it seems to have increased, in Brazil, the worry about implement innovations that reduce the pressures of production on the environment.
