%X the article discusses the relationship between the city and the environment as a public matter, given the proliferation of low-income housing within environmental protection areas. although the environment is not just an "ornament", but a vital part of social life, the ecological dimension of urban settlements has only recently been acknowledged. the current analysis is based on the example of a slum in fortaleza, located in an area of permanent protection. a city hall project to remove the illegal residents to a housing complex nearby ended up attracting new occupiers, whose eviction was immediately determined by the court of justice. due to a lack of funds to provide housing for the new "squatters", their eviction turned into an ethical and social dilemma, by weighing the right to housing against the right to a healthy environment.
