The advent of the capitalist system, marked by overproduction and excessive consumption, led to serious environmental problems, such as global warming, destruction of fauna and flora, and contamination of the oceans. From the 1970s on, these problems became more apparent to the civil society, leading to pressure movements on governments in different countries. These factors influenced a series of international conferences, such as the RIO+20, which will be dealt with in more depth in this work. Here, we will analyze how the conference influenced Brazilian environmental policies adopted in subsequent years, especially if there were factors that contributed to the mitigation of the problem. Using a bibliographical survey, we seek to demonstrate that the conference, although significant for the foreign diplomacy policy that was adopted in the period, did not bring the implementation of practices aimed at achieving what was agreed in the final document. Domestic environmental issues are directly associated with the economic and ideological interests of whoever is in power at any given time, thus the conflicts that involved the management of previous governments had a direct impact on the public policies developed by them, aimed at sustainable development. The current government administration, however, has focused on developing the country through the economy, leaving the commitments of the 2030 Agenda in the background.
