Abstract

This article presents the control measures to reduce the environmental impact within the framework of the development of domestic activities in the municipality of Galeras. It was carried out from the review of bibliographic sources that allowed defining an informative and critical text on environmental management, its elements, impact and control measures. The compilation of information was used as a collection and analysis method, it was necessary to define a mixed approach under the structure of an experimental design. A sample was taken based on the size of the population and under the consideration of a normal distribution with a margin of error of 5%, it is determined to analyze the results obtained from a group equivalent to 358 families, which were consulted from the use of interviews and the application of tools for the identification of aspects and evaluation of environmental impacts. The results made it possible to identify the areas of the home with the greatest interference in the environmental impact generated by the domestic activities carried out in the municipality of Galeras. In this way, it was possible to associate the environmental aspects that, due to their nature, intervene in each activity carried out, it was also possible to assess their impact, as well as define the control measures for their mitigation, concluding that the negative impact that generated by the development of domestic activities in the municipality of Galeras, is due to the low use of technologies, low levels of education and environmental culture and the absence of public policies that encourage the construction of solid foundations to achieve a change towards domestic environmental management cleaner and safer.
