Abstract

The aim of this research is to deepen the vision of what are the cumulative offenses and question whether such types of conduct when characterized, can be embraced by the sanctions of criminal nature and which way. Therefore, it describes the current situation of humanity, which is in a risk society, one state's duty to protect the environment, provided even in constitutional law. Moreover, it is essential for the continuity of the human species, since the risks from technological advances have the potential to cause a global environmental disaster and often irreversible. Thus, the role of law, especially criminal, is fundamental to the preservation of legally protected environment, and aims to research how you can contribute to this aim, considering the limitations of their work, derived from the historical achievements since the Enlightenment era. It is that criminal law was thought at that time to protect individual actions and adaptation to modern times and current risks as well as being legitimate, it is essential to protect the threatened new collective legal interests. In addition, we intend to analyze the simultaneous role of administrative law lends to environmental protection, whether through its sanctioning role, either through winning behaviors.
