Abstract— Natural resources are renewable, however, they need time to
recover, being essential to guarantee a healthy environment, for the benefit of
future generations, attitudes of preservation and non-degradation of the
environment. The carbon dioxide emitted by vehicle engines was a major cause
of global warming of the earth. This work will show environmental impacts
caused by the emission of gases from the burning of fuel and the unnecessary
use of paper by the Court of Justice of Pernambuco. The theme has great
relevance in view of the pressing need for everyone's contribution to
sustainability, and the Judiciary Branch must demonstrate its collaboration
through sustainable practices, within new paradigms, to minimize the impacts
that some of its activities cause to the environment. In view of this, the main
objective here is to demonstrate how the disuse of paper and the use of
electronic means in mediation sessions at the Center for the Resolution of
Conflicts and Citizenship in Recife, will contribute to the reduction of carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere due to the mitigation of deforestation. This work was
carried out in the Municipality of Recife, based on a case study developed at the
Rodolfo Aureliano Forum, in a specified way, at Cejusc - Recife. To this end,
semi-structured interviews and questionnaires were carried out, as well as
bibliographic research, with the methodology used being mixed (qualitative /
quantitative) and exploratory; the case being understood in accordance with the
Sustainable Logistics Plan indicated by the National Council of Justice and the
Sustainable Logistics Plan itself of the Pernambuco Court of Justice. Depending
on the exposure in the discussions of this work, it is important to highlight one
of the main results found in this case, considering that in 2019 64,020 new
processes were distributed (TJPE), if they were resolved by virtual mediation,
1,707.2 (one thousand , seven hundred and seven point two) eucalyptus trees,
which means that an average of 150 (one hundred and fifty) tons of carbon
dioxide would be sequestered from the atmosphere, thus making it possible to
verify the environmental gain, as well as the economic and social gain , in a
win-win process, where the courts, the Court itself, as well as the whole society
win, with the speed, effectiveness and sustainability presented by the
approached system.
