THE INTERFACE OF ENVIRONMENTAL RIGHTS WITH THE ECONOMIC RATIONALITY OF UNLIMITED GROWTH

The problems resulting from the production process continue to degrade the environment and compromise the quality of life on planet Earth.Global warming, caused by excessive greenhouse gas emissions, is a problem that worries the community the most, because if the aforementioned gas emissions persist at very high levels, the phenomenon of entropy may occur and cause serious problems and even the enthalpy death of the planet.Thus, to answer whether measures based on economic rationality are sufficient to ensure intergenerational environmental rights, this study compiled a database, adopted the hypothesis of partial compliance with the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the States, and applied the inductive theoreticalbibliographic method.In this way, it was possible to answer the issue problematized in the research.
