English to Portuguese: The commercial hyperbole of urban expansion and its environmental implications: reflections on housing areas in Porto Nacional, Tocantins, Brazil
Source text - English A hipérbole mercantil da expansão urbana e suas implicações ambientais:
reflexões sobre os loteamentos em Porto Nacional, Tocantins, Brasil
Resumo: A conjuntura formada pelo avanço da fronteira agrícola brasileira, pelo consequente e franco processo de urbanização do território e pelas recentes políticas públicas federais voltadas ao setor habitacional, tem feito com que as principais cidades do Estado do Tocantins apresentem uma expansão urbana por vezes exagerada. A cidade de Porto Nacional, por sua vez, constitui um notório exemplo desse fenômeno. Tal expansão urbana tem sido baseada em um caráter mercantil excessivo, levando a um parcelamento do solo, por intermédio de loteamentos, que nitidamente ultrapassa a demanda local por novas moradias. A deliberada aquisição de terrenos urbanizados assume a forma de prática especulativa, conduzindo à formação de vazios urbanos. Os principais agentes envolvidos na implantação desses loteamentos adotam estratégias capazes de maximizar a extração de renda da terra, em detrimento de critérios técnicos de ordem urbanística e ambiental. Com o auxílio de ideias oriundas tanto da Geografia Humana quanto da Geografia Física, o presente artigo busca realçar as ligações entre esse modelo de expansão urbana e os impactos ambientais decorrentes. Logo, são problematizadas as atuais e as potenciais consequências negativas à qualidade ambiental urbana, tomando a cidade de Porto Nacional como referência empírica.
Translation - Portuguese The commercial hyperbole of urban expansion and its environmental implications:
reflections on housing areas in Porto Nacional, Tocantins, Brazil
Abstract: By consistent and clear urbanization process of the territory and the recent federal public policies aimed at the housing sector, the conjuncture formed by the advance of Brazil's agricultural frontier has sometimes presented exaggerated urban expansion in major cities in the State of Tocantins. The city of Porto Nacional, in turn, is a notorious example of this phenomenon. This urban expansion has been based on an excessive commercial character, leading to an allotment of the ground, through the division of the land into lots, which clearly exceeds local demand for new housing. The deliberate purchase of urbanized land takes the form of speculative practice, leading to the formation of urban voids. The key players involved in implementing these housing areas adopt strategies to maximize the extraction of income from the land to the detriment of technical criteria for urban and environmental order. By using ideas derived from both human and physical geography, this article seeks to highlight the links between this model of urban expansion and environmental impacts. So, the current and the potential negative consequences of urban environmental quality are problematized, by taking the city of Porto Nacional as empirical reference.

I am a 2010 graduate of the Teaching and Learning faculty of Porto Nacional-TO, Federal University of Tocantins. My major was in English and Portuguese teaching, Linguistics and literature.
Although I have 6+ years experience with translations, my professional translation career started in 2014 when I decided to take a certificate on English to Portuguese translation at Estácio de Sá University. When I first began, my main areas of specialization on translation were science and literature.
Two years later I became a full member of ProZ. As a freelancer my job is currently focused on translating technical electronics hanbook, literary contents from all sorts, legal documents, financial, such as constituent documents, letters of attorney, manuals, contracts, agreements, equipment descriptions, balance sheets, etc.
In 2015 I was offered to become a volunteer translator of the OTP TED project. That allowed me to acquire a deep knowledge of translation subtitling, other than that I grew up a lot as a translator working with other professionals in the same team.
In 2016, I started to invest on the I.T. field as I am taking a secong degree on a Computer Analyses and System Development technology course.
