Abstract
The lack of green areas for leisure in touch with nature in the city of Salvador is relevant. Urban sprawl whose soil has been reflected in the quality of life without option of public leisure areas, especially the poorest, that occupy the peripheries, mostly untrained labor in a way, contribute to increase the statistics of crime rates in our state. The pressure of urban sprawl and housing grows increasingly advancing into the last protected areas such as the Metropolitan Park Pituaçu, that in 1973, when it was created by State Decree 23.666/73, occupied an area of 660 hectares of which Now there is only about 390 ha. Large areas were removed for donation and / or failure of our rulers, from 1973 to the present day, especially on the edge and, most recently on Paralela Avenue. This paper aims to lead readers to reflect on the importance of green areas for leisure and demonstrate that the Pituaçu Metropolitan Park is a natural park, a remnant of Atlantic forest in an urban area, conservation area protected. It aims to alert citizens about legislation that protects the park, to demand that their rights are respected, and mobilize them against the disregard for the laws especially the Constitution that prohibits removal of a specially protected area, use of the common people, which only can occur, as Article 225 III of the Constitution homeland after public consultation by law, which did not occur.
