Synopsis: The book covers a range of topics including the historical evolution and present landscape of Brazilian environmental law; fundamental principles of environmental law; environmental constitutionalism in Brazil; the legal framework governing environmental assets; animal protection and rights; environmental federalism; national environmental policy; administrative tools for environmental regulation; civil and criminal environmental liability; judicial interpretations of environmental law; specially protected areas; climate change legislation and litigation; and water resource management. This book is intended for those interested in Brazilian environmental and climate change law, specifically catering to students, lawyers, jurists, scholars, and anyone eager to grasp the key aspects and current status of this field. With the international focus on Brazil as a 'continental Country' and the limited availability of English literature on the subject, compounded by the challenges many non-Portuguese speaking academics encounter, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding how Brazil's legal and justice systems address environmental issues.
