Abstract
La degradación del medio ambiente cubano se consolida durante la etapa republicana, como consecuencia, fundamentalmente, del desarrollo del modelo de plantación azucarera que comenzara en la etapa colonial. Antonio Núñez Jiménez, en su obra Geografía de Cuba, valora la gran riqueza de la naturaleza del país y también aborda acerca de los principales problemas ambientales que se confrontaban a mediados del pasado siglo XX. Ofrece, además, las alternativas que consideró podían ser útiles para revertir la situación, todo lo que puede servir en la actualidad para entender mejor la situación creada y también contribuir a la educación ambiental de las nuevas generaciones. El objetivo del presente artículo es destacar los contenidos ambientales de la referida obra, así como los aportes a una más cabal comprensión de la evolución del medio ambiente nacional y su estado en la etapa. La investigación se realizó sobre la base del análisis de la obra y de otros documentos relacionados con el tema, lo que permitió cumplir el propósito previsto.
