English. This article aimed to analyze the natural resources (pasture, conservation and preservation of springs) relating to biodiversity. Therefore, a review of online scientific articles, dissertations, books was previously carried out to support the concept of natural resources, environmental degradation, environmental management and sustainability. Subsequently, instruments were applied for data collection (detailed and systematic observations of photographic records) carried out in the field. It was diagnosed that the use of natural resources were being used for economic activities, with emphasis on extensive livestock, activities capable of resulting in major transformations of biodiversity, with consequent environmental degradation of soil, vegetation, and springs. Environmental Education is necessary to end the cycle of poverty and reduce the levels of degradation of natural resources, resulting in a better quality of life. The results showed that there are serious conflicts between the exploitation of natural resources, environmental education and environmental management to achieve a form of awareness..
