| Abstract | Cities are a completely artificial environment, they absorb huge amounts of resources from surrounding areas and create high concentrations of waste to be eliminated. The growth of cities will inevitably occur at the expense of the environment. This modification of nature for urban development takes many forms, affecting the lithosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere. Where are primarily affected the urban atmosphere, surface and groundwater, as they are the download sites most common contaminants and those with the greatest impact on the environment (Middleton, 2013). Thus, urban growth is one of the phenomena that currently is determining a suitable living environment, due to the amount of territory and resources available to meet the needs of society. Bogota, capital of Colombia, has 7'776.845 inhabitants, given projection for 2013 (DANE, 2005). Has increased its population since 1985 of 84%, is of great concern the high urban growth trend that the city, as distribution and proper use of the territory depends on the environmental quality of Bogota. Bogota has 20 locations. In the town of Engativa a high population density of 210.64 inhabitants per hectare identifies urban land, higher than the city average is 180.9 people per hectare. It is also the third most populated locality of the city (District Department of Planning, 2011), this rapid pace of growth resulting in the need to satisfy basic elements of social groups such as the occupation of a territory and providing resources, aspects that have direct influence on land use for the performance of activities involving the territory, where they modify their natural characteristics are altered and additional services it can provide. For example in the area of illegal settlements cause deterioration in wetlands as channel wetland Juan Amarillo (or Tibabuyes), Santa Maria del Lago and Jaboque, providing an environmental service by regulating the water regime and provide an ecosystem service that "seeks ensure sustainability and livability in the city "(SDP, 2013 p. 56). To avoid such situations as mayor of Bogota presents a decree ordering in which the territory, so the Mayor aims to protect areas such as the above is regulated. Pitifully declared protected in the Land Use Plan (POT) Decree 364 of 2013 areas are tapped, producing a conflict of land use. This problem occurs due to lack of awareness by economic actors and factors such as migration from the displacement and generating expectations that grants the city. Another factor to consider is the management changes at the district level, where there is a change of policy and a transition in which environmentally sensitive areas are exposed. Therefore, the use of tools that allow for monitoring these areas, currently government agencies that have jurisdiction in the area, as are the local mayor of Engativa (ALE) and environmental observatory Bogota necessary (OAB ) include models of indicators, but do not have indicators to allow monitoring the conflict of land use and as support for decision-making in the town of Engativa (BBA, 2014), this ends in a high exposure and intervention of wetlands in this area that are of vital ecological importance for the city. |
