Given the controversial discussions about the proposed changes to the Brazilian Forest Code (CFB) and the harmful consequences that they can bring to the future of humanity and the planet, it was thought to observe the environmental ethics would be taken into account before these proposals change, since it arose from the need to discuss ethics with regard to the environment, based on the concern and the ecological sensitivity in response to a mentality predatory nature. The Brazilian Forest Code is one of the strictest in the world. Emerged as an initiative for environmental protection, is now the target of many controversies occasioned by the Proposed Substitute Bill No. 1876/99, by Deputy Aldo Rebelo. Given the environmental crisis caused by the spread of globalization and population growth as well as growing consumerism, it is necessary to examine these proposals within view of the recent Environmental Ethics, which has as its object of study the sustainable relationship between man and the environment . The issues addressed in this work required a reflective ethical approach and the use of benchmarks, which would support the theoretical basis needed for research, enabling the formation of critical thinking and a possible awareness of the need for preservation and wise use of natural resources.
