O Direito ambiental, passou a ser visto como disciplina jurídica autônoma a partir da contribuição da Ecologia, por volta dos anos cinquenta do século passado. Hoje, em pleno século XXI, vivencia-se um mundo interconectado, com relações instantâneas e que a cada dia exige uma visão jurídica comparada, até porque, quando diante de assuntos afetos ao ambiente, o produzido por uma determinada localidade pode afetar outra a quilômetros de distância. Sendo assim, idealizou-se uma obra sob a perspectiva ibero-americana onde cada autor se comprometeu a estudar os principais aspectos e institutos do Direito ambiental de seu país, seguindo um norte traçado pelos diretores e coordenadores desta obra. O objetivo foi propiciar ao leitor a possibilidade de diferenciar e estabelecer as semelhanças entre este ramo do direito em diferentes países. Espera-se que essa obra permita que seu leitor consiga comparar os diferentes regimes jurídicos por elas disciplinados.
