Résumé
Although the COVID-19 pandemic has taken most by surprise, the direct and indirect relationships between changes in land use, climate change, loss of biodiversity and the emergence of infectious diseases have been known for decades. of zoonoses. We explain some of the ecological mechanisms and processes that underlie the emergence of this threat and its relationship with extractivisms, such as industrial livestock, and globalization. We also invite reflection on some of the socio-ecological impacts of environmental deregulation that is being generated since the outbreak of the pandemic. Both the consequences of the pandemic and this deregulation are also increasing the vulnerability of populations in a differential manner. We propose, by way of closing, the promotion of interdisciplinary approaches, the profound transformation of the economic model and the incorporation of the perspective of environmental justice for the approach and prevention of future pandemics.
