Abstract
Man's action on the environment is as old as his own history. Natural resources have been used for a long time as source of life. After enslaving nature for so long, the man began to suffer the consequences of his acts, such as the diseases that arise as consequences of the inadequate use of the environment. At this moment, norms to discipline the human conduct regarding environmental protection and the rational consumption of the natural resources arise. The present research analyzed the evolution of the environmental legislation in Brazil, aiming at facilitating the understanding of the protection and conservation of the natural resources. The study was segmented in different periods according to Brazilian History: Colonial, Imperial and Republican periods, being the last one subdivided in three sub-periods: Evolution, Consolidation and Improvement of the Environmental Right, being this last one concerned to the legislation after the Federal Constitution of 1988.
