Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
Abstract
The destruction of the Brazilian Amazon is a global environmental crisis necessitating international cooperation and responsibility, particularly from developed nations, due to its far-reaching consequences for biodiversity, climate change, and human rights. The note argues that while Brazil bears primary responsibility, the international community, especially developed countries, must assist in addressing the issue due to their historical and ongoing contributions to the problem.
