healthy quality of life for present and future generations. The Brazilian legal system has
legislation that brings penalties and fines for environmental offenders, but when offenders are
punished, environmental damage is already achieved, and its repair is often difficult or even
impossible. Therefore, this work seeks to demonstrate that Environmental Education can be an
effective device in the search for the effectiveness of the principles of precaution and prevention
